Weekdays are a perfectly good reason for weed My period has been spotting old gross blood and some clear discharge for about a week, it's annoying. I'm pretty sure it's building up to a crippling, clot-filled nightmare, I just hope it holds off until after Halloween. I don't have any major plans, I just love Halloween. Dressing up and handing out candy is the best kind of good, clean fun. I'm going to be a jellyfish again

I hate it when peak flow kicks off at night. I've kind of gotten used to a pattern where day 1 is all mild and mellow, so if it hits late in the day, I can get through the night without a complete replacement of tampon + pad, but last night decided to go ALL IN at 2 a.m. It super-sucks to be half asleep and have to decide if you'll be OK til dawn, or you should really get up and do a full reset in the small hours. Even worse if I snooze and wake half an hour later to find that I have a hell of a lot more cleaning up to do. Periods suck but I bet menopause is gonna be even more obnoxious, just to make some kind of dumb point.

The other day -- day 2 -- I woke up and farted, and like 100 liters of blood poured out of my body, up my asscrack, onto my PJ pants, and it almost seemed like I had my entire period on the spot. The first two days are the doomsdays.

Would there be any interest if I made a more generalized women's chat thread in GBS? I know there used to be a Lady's Chat Thread but I haven't seen it in ages. Sometimes I want to talk about things like cute bakeware and skin care and how much I loving hate fashion now and that's all beyond the scope of this thread. I particularly would like Teen Witch's blessing since she started this thread and I wouldn't want to steal her crampy thunder.

The first two days are the doomsdays. The Ominous Awakening is the most absolute bullshit thing. You wake up and realize you've no idea what the actual period situation is, but you also know that if you sit up normally and swing your legs out of the bed, if you have a big leakage situation, you are going to have a massive mess, so you sort of roll awkwardly to the edge of the bed and try to get upright without sitting directly on your rear end and thus making a big old mess.

silicone thrills posted:Sorry. Added in the article. Thank you quote:Most concerning to younger women was whether these changes could reduce fertility, Taylor says. It wasn’t until January that a study of 2,000 American couples published in the American Journal of Epidemiology resolved the question. Women trying to conceive who’d had the virus saw no decrease in fertility. Similarly, the COVID shot had no impact on conception rates. I have still (as far as I know anyway) never had COVID, but I might go around licking subway poles if it meant free permanent birth control.

Period was done about 2 days ago, all things going okay, and then today for no reason it was like someone broke the spigot in my eyes and I just started crying at work. At least I was alone in my delivery van, and not in front of customers, but holy crap I just couldn't stop. Wonder how much the camera picked up.

I'd get covid 50 times in a row if it'd sterilize me. Seems to be easier than finding a surgeon to remove my fallopian tubes

Did you feel any better afterwards? I knew this period was coming, at least, because I spent all of Wednesday evening in an absolute loving *rage* about nothing at all. Like all of us I have reasons to be angry but this was pure undirected fury. I felt like I could shoot laser beams out of my eyes. Also my ADHD meds were hardly working so there was that little flag up too I feel great today. I mean, gross and uncomfortable and achy and thirsty, but cheerful.

It pours out underneath the pad, above it, below it, all over the drat place. I've mentioned this before, but the best overnight pad is depends underwear diaper things. "Always" makes a similar product if incontinence branding squicks you out. I like the incontinence ones because they are designed to absorb up to 2 cups of urine virtually instantly. Do your worst, uterus, you've got nothing compared to the amount of liquid bladder can pump out. They aren't great for during the day because if you actually let it absorb cups of liquid it will get heavy and sag and nobody wants that. But they are fantastic for saving your sheets from overnight leaks. Note: It does not eliminate the carnage, merely contain it. The sentient menstrual fluid trying to escape it's absorbent prison will run all up and down your crack looking for a way out. So your sheets are clean, but when you go to take your morning pee you can leave unexpected bloody butt prints on the toilet seat. Still, having a shower first thing in the morning is easier than washing sheets first thing in the morning so it's worth it to me.

I totally understand the worry. All I can suggest is to become middle-aged and stop giving a single gently caress because ugggghhh whatever. Everyone else is staying elsewhere after today so I can have a few days to slouch grumpily around the house like a blood goblin.

IUD update: stopped spotting but I still feel like the discharge is enough that I have to wear some kind of thin pad or panty liner. I don't know that that's related to the iud though because some days I would have issues with it before the iud was put in. Maybe the spotting just made me more paranoid about it. Anyway my last period was just slight spotting. I hope it goes away completely that would be sweet. I stopped menstruating when I was on lo loestrin so fingers crossed.

I had a pelvic CT last week, it was...interesting. I had to show up early and chug a water bottle of fruit punch-flavor barium, which had a hell of a laxative effect later on. And they warned me what it would feel like when they did the IV contrast but holy hell it really does feel like you're peeing yourself right there on the scan table. They haven't followed up with me yet and I'm getting anxious I don't like all the mystery pains
