It feels like my pelvis has been scotch-taped back together after being shattered with a baseball bat. One wrong move and there's pain shooting throughout my whole pelvis/vulva/hip area. Kill me.

I guess if I still feel like this when I wake up, I'll hobble over to the CityMD or something. Part of me wonders if I got some sort of super cramp from cringing in my sleep. edit: I should add that this isn't the first time I've felt like this during the first couple of days of my period.

Kill me. this has been happening to me recently too at least the pill makes it so i rarely get periods, but when i do, hooooly poo poo ouch when i googled "menstruation nerve pain" every hit is about endometriosis, which an OB-GYN said i couldn't have when i asked about it a few years back because my periods were too short or something. but now i'm wondering again!

HopperUK posted:Is there evidence for that pheromone thing? That's fascinating. In, I think, the blessed picture thread, there are a couple of posts near the end where in trans people describe how traumatised dogs who are afraid of men/women become entirely unafraid of specific people once they transition. Those puppos can smell if the person they meet is a human male or female, and they cannot be tricked. You smell like the non-scary gender, pups love you. It occurs to me that this is poo poo for people who are trans but who do not want to deal with hormones. Youse are awesome and valuable I just wanted to acknowledge that dogs are magic. They can't manage everything but you loving know that dogs love you 100% of the time, because you are perfect.

Find a new doctor. there's a reason i only saw that guy once! he was completely dismissive of my concerns (and i know that's not an uncommon experience w/endometriosis or other types of menstrual/uterine issues!). i've always had way better treatment at my local planned parenthood, but the stupid "oh your periods are heavy but short? well u can't have endometriosis then" thing stuck with me and so i didn't bring it up again. i definitely will now!

Well one sits on me, the other just sits nearby DESPERATE for pets but not wanting to deal with the PEOPLE portion of that exchange. My cats have only ever been extra responsive when I was ill or very unhappy. And I had one cat that would curl up close to me on cold days and then get all pissed off that I hadn't gone away and left my precious excess body heat behind. Real "I cannot believe you have the unmitigated gall to still be here" vibes.

I don’t know if they can detect periods, but animals definitely pick up on some kind of hormones. My cat would get horny as hell every time she met a human male. Like rolling around, sticking her butt in the air, fawning all over them. It was kind of embarrassing

In (I think) the Blessed Pictures thread, there were a couple of people describing instances where dogs who were afraid or all men, or all women went from fearing specific people to loving them dearly when they started transitioning, which is both super lovely and also shows that dogs are extremely aware of how our hormone profiles make us smell.

Most of my pets haven't cared when I'm on my period, but my dog Lita used to go insane with trying to get at my underwear, even when I was wearing it. Once or twice she dug pads out of the trash and shredded them up. But the other dogs and all the cats haven't given a rip. Just finished mine, and gently caress this time for two days I was spotting, and then finally the floodgates open. I tell myself I'm almost 40, this poo poo should be over soon....right?

One of my old dogs used to wank constantly and loudly whenever my mums boyfriend came round. She also used to eat knickers, and you had to put any pads in the outside bin or she'd tear everything up to get to them. I've noticed one of my dogs tends to get more cuddly when I'm feeling ill, too. Pets are cool.

Anyone using Nexplanon ever have menstrual cramps? I’ve had a couple doozies this week, my first in almost five years, but I did recently get it replaced for the first time. Edit: to be clear I’m not bleeding at all, just having cramps.

I've used nexplanon for about six years now and I almost never get cramps. Granted, even when I'm off birth control I don't get super bad cramps (just basically mild ones constantly during my period). I do get some here and there when I'm due to get the implant replaced, but aside from those few months I get nothing.

It's usually form-fitting camis as an undershirt, but since I'm home all day living my pandemic life, I may as well walk around topless for a day every few periods when the soreness gets extra bad. Honey, with underwire. Yes. I am committed. (And I have a hosed-up back.) I'm also losing weight thanks to finally getting some proper treatment for my endo so they're EXTRA JIGGLY RIGHT NOW IN THERE. It's driving me loving bananas.

I've only worn comfort bras for the last few years because they are cheap and they don't have wires or hooks or anything to drive me nuts. They seem to be working okay for my fairly big boobs but I guess they might not be enough support for some folk. I love em.

I usually wear loose tops and dresses, but when they're PMS sore, sometimes I will hold them when I run down stairs. That's the perfect amount of support! Luckily (?!) my hell ride period started today so the boob and nipple ghost torture will end soon.

I thought it was due to dating an obsessed guy for a few years, but maybe it was just age?? Has anyone else had that happen? I did for the first time recently and I'm almost 30. It was like they were super cold and being constantly pinched at the same time, it was terrible. That said I had pretty bad Covid at the time so could've been something to do with that.

Ugh, I have a pap smear scheduled for later in the week but my period is also scheduled to start on that day. I've never actually done a pap before so I don't know if that makes it more difficult but it seems like it might be a bit more unpleasant to have someone poking around there. I guess I could reschedule but my period is not always super reliable so I have a feeling I'd just end up rescheduling it to a different period.

I think they prefer if its not the same time since it's just more cells to sort through looking for a good representative sample. Cross fingers your appointment is earlier than the actual start but I'm sure they'll be understanding either way.

Had my yearly exam and nearly wept for joy when the Dr said they’re moving away from using speculums unless completely necessary, which it isn’t for me. Usually I’m weeping in pain from it! However due to family history I’m slated for my first mammogram this week, and I’m not 40. Any advice, or anecdotes? My concern is that since I’m small chested it may be a bit more painful as there isn’t as much to work as with?

I had my first mammogram at 26 (also family history). I went to a Solis mammography center and was really pleased with the service-- I felt like they valued my comfort level. When the mammogram images weren't super great (dense breast tissue) they switched to ultrasound which was even less invasive than the standard squish. I plan to keep going back once I hit the big 3-0 and need it done yearly.
