Hey ladies..
I'm 22 and a mum of 1 and I'm done having children. I had such a bad time with PND, I had a horrible pregnancy, traumatic birth, to the point, I'm done and I know it.
Is there any way to stop my period for good? I have asked the doctor about getting my tubes tied, but they said i may change my mind later and they wont do it.
SO and i take precautions, condoms + I'm on the pill, i just dont want any chance of having children again, and still want to be able to enjoy sex without being stressed until my next period comes.

Even tube tying isn't 100% effective, there is I such thing as 100%. My sister got her tubes done same time as mine and got pregnant about a year later! There is always risk.
If you are taking the pill and want to stop your period you can just take the active tablets continuously.
You could also consider the Mirena, or implanon which also are not 100% but at least you don't have to remember to take a tablet each day. If you are stressed waiting for your period I would think not having one would be worse because you'd not have a regular cycle to reassure you.
As I come from a family of ridiculously fertile people I have my tubes tied and use a second form of contraception (hormonal if in a long term relationship or condoms in a new relationship as they protect against STDs).
Just to add tube tying does not stop you having periods
There are ways. I use them due to having endometriosis.
Depoprovera injection worked well for about 6 months then it broke through quite painfully halfway through the third injection.
Currently using the mirena it is working although I occasionally breakthrough with a day or two of light bleeding which is now all there is left of my period
