On the other side of this, wouldn't it be true that for most of human history shorter lifespans and constant pregnancy/breastfeeding would have actually meant women had fewer periods over the course of their lifetimes?
I definitely don't think this means artificial hormones are a positive thing necessarily.
I've heard good and bad about pretty much every type of birth control. But if you are going for a hormone free option and aren't concerned about STDs then I've heard the most positive stuff about hormone-free IUDs.
Good luck!
