I’m about to have my first period without birth control in 15 years and I feel absolutely awful. The one I was on was making me crazy, angry and suicidally depressed for exactly 36 hours until my period actually started and then I’d be fine. I don’t know if it’s worth the trade off. Hopefully I’ll be able to go on a different one and not have the same side effects.

She got surgery to put a plate and screws into her arm, and then eventually another one to get them taken out. I still get freaked-out chills just thinking about how badly that had to hurt. *She tripped over a large prop jungle gym that took up a large section of the stage. The violin section was separated from the rest of us by it, and people had to either walk through it, or go around it off-stage. She tripped on one floor-level bar and broke her arm on the other. This girl played four different sports, and broke her arm walking across the stage at the end of Orchestra.

I've gotten to the joyous age where the period cycle gives me weird palpitations for days on end. When it first started, I just thought I was about to die of fucky heart, but I got tested and did a little research. The tests showed no heart problems at all, and the research said 'yeah, that'll happen'. loving weird pitta patty heart intermittently for days on end when hormone switches are happening. Fun Times!

My period has been over for a week and I still have lingering menstrual cramps. I’ve never had this before and they suck and I can’t work out as much as I can and feel way more tired. Uterus was a mistake

At its best when you're trying to fall asleep and can't because your heart is being a hyperactive child on a sugar binge. "This is not what 'cardio' means!" I mentally scream to my stupid organs.

I lost my birth control pills. I haven't had PIV sex in several years so I'm not worried about accidental pregnancy as much as I'm worried about my bones/ovaries/uterus disintegrating or spontaneously combusting. Please tell me I'm not going to die (at least not from this).

There are plenty of nights when I have to use ear plugs (noisy upstairs neighbors) and they make the pounding seem so much worse. At least the banging about upstairs is not an obvious sign that my heart is about to bust out of my ribcage and go forth to roam the night, devouring small animals and laying waste to local crops.

Quite frankly, I'm happy I have an excuse not to take it, because (I think) it was making my period like 3-5 weeks long (it's a common mini-pill side effect).

I did ok on the pill and don't think stopping them affected my periods all that much. I did think so, initially, because they were suddenly very erratic and I went from having maybe 24 hours of heavy flow to days and days of it, but that was more likely the advent of perimenopause. going from mostly tolerable periods to having to change tampons every four hours for more than a week and still wear a pad just in case while i was homeless and unemployed is genuinely the main reason i embraced menopause with glee.

Lubrication will help with the combustion, but as to the rest, you may have a calcium deficiency which you should get immediate attention for.

The amount of water weight my body insists on holding onto the week before my period is ludicrous, and as soon as I start bleeding it just vanishes again. I'm trying to lose weight right now so it's doing my head in even more than usual.

Anyone else think it horribly loving unfair that we get to deal with this for our entire lives, whereas dudes hit puberty, get a growth spurt, don't have to shave at all, and the downside is....they get boners in awkward times? Yes yes it's the price we pay for genetic certainty but gently caress genetic certainty when I am never having kids!

This morning I stretched a little as I was waking up, and that dumped out what felt like a quarter cup of blood, it was horrifying. I'm on my second week and still cramping and making big clumps, so it's time to break out the red raspberry leaf.

At least the banging about upstairs is not an obvious sign that my heart is about to bust out of my ribcage and go forth to roam the night, devouring small animals and laying waste to local crops. I just did a little more reading and you know, it's absolutely infuriating that this is such an extremely commonplace thing to happen when you hit your late 30's/early 40's, and no one ever mentions it as a thing. You hear all about the hot flashes in actual menopause, but no one thinks to mention that even when your period cycle seems to be exactly the same as it ever was, you're really quite likely to start noticing your heart start hammering, or in my case doing that 'pause... EXTRA BIG BEAT' thing several times a minutes, off and on for days on end when your hormone levels change. It would have saved me a hell of a lot of worrying if I'd known to expect it. I remember when it first started, I freaked out and went to the doctor, got a 24 hour heart monitor to check (no probs), so I was a bit reassured, but kind of puzzled, and I mentioned the whole thing to my mother, and she was all "oh yeah, I remember when that started happening to me too; for a while, I thought I was about to drop dead, and then I thought 'gently caress it, hasn't happened yet' and ignored it."
