I haven't had a period in a year thanks to my iud. Not having a period is the coolest thing I have ever done. I got two more years of being constantly not bleeding and then I am getting a new one shoved right up there.

gently caress you, mother nature, eat science bitch.

Copper 3 year. I know a lot of women have bad reactions to iuds, but it worked for my sister and I really well. I will say that the day after I got it put in it felt like it was trying to burrow out of me. But since then it's been hunky dory.

Sorry you got a bad rap there, tw. Also, hey, it's been a while.

also ever since this pandemic poo poo popped off, my PMS depression has really ramped up. anyone else? for once whole week once a month i want to die and then i usually get into a fight with my boyfriend, and i don't know if either of us can take this much longer :angel:

This has been a struggle for me as well. I know I am lucky to not be getting periods lately but I still pms and I am one of those people who doesn't keep track of my period so sometimes I have to be like, am I actually mad/sad/lazy or am I just pmsing? This has been exacerbated by the pandemic and I can feel myself sinking into old habits and thought patterns. It sucks! I wish you well.

Can we get off balls and dive back into vaginas in the period thread?

Good period things: get out of things if the person in charge (teacher, boss, coach, Dom) is a dude.

Bad period things: having to walk around with a full pad in the summer. Just terrible. Real bad stuff.

Last night I watched a documentary on Netflix about seeing eye dogs and ate pumpkin seeds while holding a heating pad to my back. Between joy tears, back sweat and pum seeds it was like sitting in a comfortable salt mine. Thanks mother nature!

But seriously, thanks for inventing weed. That was a nice thing to do.

I think it's the implication that they are buying the tampons for their own bleeding vaginas and that's embarrassing/emasculating.

i have a serious question.
is there anything in particular a boyfriend/husband can do that actually helps make the experience more bearable?

none of my partners have had problematic periods, so i've never really been called upon.

It's tough because what works for one person might be what another person absolutely hates, but it's a good idea to have a heating pad around the house. Maybe offer a lower back massage, or to get a favorite meal/snack. I think probably the best advice is to just listen and read body language as best you can.

A treatment for "your vaginal walls got wrecked by the child you gave birth to who will never fully appreciate this suffering" is basically a massive electroshock dildo with inflatable pump and the entire time I played with it that loving pump it up jingle from the chris rock snl sketch played in my mind.

Get out of here Chris, everybody hates you!

Lmao I also would like to know more please.

Also if you think period poops are bad try the first poo poo after giving birth. Oh also you had an episiotomy. It will break you.

I think this thread summon periods or something. After not having any bleeding for over a year two days ago I got some light spotting. It was kind of nice, like seeing an old friend who moved away. During this pandemic it's important to stay connected.

I think there is something broken inside me because even with a copper IUD my periods usually aren’t bad and sometimes are almost kinda good (especially for the laxative effect 10/10) but oh my god the week around when I ovulate makes me want to loving die. My whole pelvis feels swollen and disgusting and I have to pee like every 30 minutes and I think I’m allergic to my own cervical mucus or something because my whole vag just feels like a tube of discomfort even though as far as I can tell I don’t get any kind of infection. Having an orgasm makes things feel better for a little bit but that’s about all I can do for relief.

"tube of discomfort" is a great way to put it. understated.

Facebook Aunt posted:

Yeah, I heard 2 tablespoons back in the day. I think I figured it out though. It is possible that no matter how much menstrual fluid you lose, only a tablespoon or two of that is regular circulating blood. Like when you shed the uterine lining that leaves some capillaries at loose ends and a tiny bit of regular blood leaks out of the circulatory system. The liquified uterine lining itself isn't exactly blood. Menstrual fluid also contains mucus, anticoagulant, and probably various goos I can't remember at the moment. Fluid produced does not equal blood lost.

Why would the small amount of regular circulating blood lost be worth mentioning at all? Just a guess, but I bet it's that whole "thing that bleeds for 5 days and doesn't die" meme. They want to reassure 14 year olds that you're not going to lose a dangerous amount of blood and randomly die of anemia one month. That would be hemorrhaging, not menstruating.

I am totally pulling this out of my rear end, but it seems like a reasonable way the misleading 1-2 tablespoons factoid could have gotten started.

I think you are right!
