Not quite what you're asking, but I take meds to regulate my period bc PCOS, and drat medication gives me restless legs! I can't fuckin sleep!! Thank God a round of meds is only a week Also one time my period sent me to the ER so that was fun

Starting in the middle of the night is unusual but at least its polite enough to wake me up with cramps too painful to sleep through to let me know

I don't get mouth ulcers but I do get at least one, usually multiple, stye(s) which is like. Really sexy. I do want to post about my gratitude for my diva cup bc man does dealing with my period twice a day and forgetting I'm even bleeding during the rest of the day make me feel so much more like a human being with competence and dignity than the alternatives Also maybe it's just PCOS hormone weirdness but beyond like the first or second day of my period all the mood poo poo lifts and I'm actually in a better than average mood for the rest? Feels clean feels organic

Mine was a few weeks off after my booster, though having a regular period is very new and abnormal for me so it could very well just be PCOS reverting to the mean

Bloooooooooood PMS is an absolutely miserable experience, but when actually bleeding, is it that unusual to feel better than normal? My anxiety is lifted more than even normal days. Feels serene feels cleansing

I use a paper calendar because I like to colour in squares, but also mines more for 'how long has it been since my last one, do I need to take progesterone' rather than anticipating future cycles

Cowslips Warren posted:I wonder what prehistoric women did when they had these hormonal bursts. Even ancient history like Mesopotamia. Oh poo poo oh gently caress oh poo poo I need to buy figs and clean this tunic and why am I so drat angry and hey those loving bees need to make more honey I neeeeed honey. Well I've read that period food cravings are a culturally bound symptom and globally, most women don't actually get them? So ancient women's experiences of their cycles were probably wildly different from ours

i only think about the actual bleeding part of my period for the like 1 minute at morning and evening when I empty my diva cup bizarrely this feeling of mastery over a very female process lessens my general dislike of being female

Only menstruation adjacent but I've been trying to get a tubal ligation and my family doctor is on board but Jesus christ is it a challenge to even get a single appointment with a gynecologist right now. I thought I had a gynecologist who was 'mine' but then when I tried to book an appointment with her, the hospital was like 'no your prior concern is managed now so you have to start over as a new patient? And we're not accepting new patients.' so now my doctor and I are running around the city trying to get any other gyno to respond to our emails i just wanna be sterile Killingyouguy! fucked around with this message at 13:28 on Jun 11, 2022 |

Least the testers are cheap. God yeah if it's the right time of month it's like 'do I haul rear end out to the clinic or do I wait a few days' it's the pH changes that do it
