The more I think about it the more I realize I'm going to have to bite the bullet and see a dermatologist if I want to get anything accomplished.

Differin is over the counter in the US. I use it twice a week 3 weeks a month and every other day during the grease times. It turns your skin cells over faster which really cuts down on the hormonal acne for me.

last month I was spotting for like, 21 days then had an 8-day period (they're usually 4 or 5). Never had that happen before. This month is looking to be more normal thankfully, but I did wake up to pain feeling like someone detonated a bomb inside my pelvis.

I had/have some skin sensitivity, like the skin round my eyes is sometimes sore to the touch even though I don’t put the cream there.

Face update, if anyone is interested - So my doctor's office implemented this great new policy over the past few covidy years to cut down on in person visits where if you have a skin problem you can call the assistant, describe it and the symptoms and she'll ask a few questions, and then you can whatsapp them a pic of it and the doctor will look at it when he has a moment. So I called up, described it, and sent a photo this morning and they called me back a few minutes ago. Turns out I have rosacea - which from a little bit of research isn't something that is caused by birth control but can be made worse by pregnancy/birth control hormones. I have had what I thought was just oily and sensitive skin but I've probably just had rosacea for years now (I think my dad has it as well to a lesser degree) and never knew until the doctor looked at it. I'm getting a prescription cream for it tomorrow and hopefully in the not-too-distant future I'll be known at school pickup as "that fat, loud American" as opposed to "that fat, loud American with bad skin."

If I get a flooding incident I may have to get directly into the shower in the morning (even before using the toilet) but my sheets are fine. The massacre is contained. I'm murdering the earth, but I'm okay with that. Now that I'm 52 and menopause still hasn't shown up (wtf) I've gotten lazy and often wear them during the day too. Which turned out to be amazing this week when I was 15 minutes from home and became violently ill with norovirus. I assumed the gurgling was the onset of period shits and I needed to get home, but it was not just period shits and I did not make it home. I know goons are generally pro-pants shidding, but it ruins your day a lot less if you happen to already be wearing a "diaper" when it happens. So that's a plus, I guess?

I would like to hear about the parties people threw when the Dr. confirmed the baby maker was closed for business. My mom says that hot flashes never go away in our family, so I'm thinking I'll just have a DJ instead of a live band. You know, I had a pretty great sex education growing up. TV in the 90s and several years of actual education at school (I went to a nonparochial private school which meant we got legit science education) but I still don't remember ever learning much about menopause. I just came home from college one day and mom bit off the head of anyone who dared touch the thermostat.

So what's the point? Just give up and close down the shop already.

I mean. According this guy I went to college with, a woman's body automatically turns off her period when she's in water. It's evolutionarily protective, duh. Problem solved!

Y’all I have a follow up. Just hugged my boyfriend, and he was like, ‘you got the CROMPS again, or just hafta poop?’ To which I was like, ‘Nah, but I hope I get to poop soon after all the food last weekend.’ I go to the bathroom not ten minutes later, and wouldn’t you know, it’s period o’clock. Dude has a sixth sense…. (For context, I have had the lightest, practically nonexistent periods since getting my IUD, and don’t bother keeping a calendar anymore.)

Recently started taking testosterone for gender stuff, and I just got my first period since being on it and hooooo baby am I ready to rampage Like, I would be a lot more emotional and all that before, but now I am ready to fight *CONSTANTLY* and fight is the only emotion available (otherwise I'm neutral, but man that swaps fast)

Weirdly my period stopped for a day. At first I thought "oh all the heaving and whatnot must have gotten things over faster. Silver linings." But then the next day it came back with a vengeance. Apparently my uterus is a jealous bitch and if she can't be the star of the show she just clamps the cervix shut.
