Supposedly it's possible to not have a single period ever in your life if you have no intent of ever having children. The new guidelines say that periods are obsolete, and that the "breakthrough bleeding" week from the sugar pill was only put in there because the original researchers had to find a way to make it acceptable to the then-politically-influential Catholic Church.

This would be interesting to explore further. As women who give birth to a lot of children also spend long time periods without having their period.
