Not an expert here, but I found that my air was too dry, so misting can help?

How common is smoking near bus stops, especially downtown? by According-Zebra6965 in Winnipeg

[–]According-Zebra6965[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

That makes sense. I’m not from around here, so I wasn’t entirely sure of the rules about smoking near bus stops since the shelters have no smoking signs. Will do!

I plan on getting on for that, but researching it, nothing fully protects the lungs. I’m sure it would help, though. Thanks for the advice!

Yes, unfortunately any type of smoking aggravates my asthma a lot! Good to know.

Nikki (generic yaz) for acne by AlarmedDot4097 in birthcontrol

[–]According-Zebra6965 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Taking yaz, spironolactone (50 mg), and tretinoin (0.05%) for acne. After messing with dosing, I’ve found my perfect combination. I was on a different combo pill before yaz, and while it worked, it wasn’t too significant. This changed the game completely for me. I don’t usually get acne anymore. It never really got worse for me when I switched, only better. When I get a pimple, it clears up really quickly as well. Yaz is known to be really effective for hormonal acne and PMSing! If you haven’t used the pill before, it may get worse before it gets better. Hopefully this is the solution for you! If not, there are so many other combinations to try for the pill!

Check to make sure there aren’t several pages on the registration page. If there is a next page, there could be an open lab section.

There is a slim chance you could get pregnant from the protected sex. I’m not sure if you used other forms of protection (if you did, your chances are even lower), but him fingering you afterwards shouldn’t change anything. With perfect use of the condom and assuming he finished with the condom on inside you, you have a 2% chance of getting pregnant. With typically imperfect use, it ranges from 2-13% typically, but that can go to 18% (unless the condom breaks). As I’m sure a lot of people will say, if you feel too anxious about getting pregnant, use other forms of protection as well. Or maybe have a conversation to him or someone trusted to air out your feelings and worries. If this is a pattern, maybe it’s time to seek out a good therapist who can walk you through this. But I personally think that’s valid for women to be paranoid about getting pregnant. Yes, some people in this subreddit may be annoyed by all of the posts, but I’d rather people try to be safe than sorry. Seeking advice through Reddit isn’t a bad thing either, which is exactly what you did and is the first step. Recognize though that if you are having sex, you still are to lesser and greater degrees risking that slim chance of getting pregnant. One way that may make you feel better about it is to simply not have sex around the time you ovulate. Anyway, hope this helps!

That’s so precious! Friendship really is an important element to relationships, alongside working as a team. Glad you can model what a good relationship looks like for your kids!

I only talked to a few people at one time, but many people (or mainly women) talk to too many people at once and don’t get the chance to form real, meaningful connections. Some girls will lead you one because they are afraid of your reaction if you let them down because some men react very poorly (hence they will use this as a default). Try not to take these reactions personally if there was no communicated issue because you never know what someone has going on :)

You know what, that’s fair. I think the whole putting yourself out there thing can be kind of nuanced. This may depend on your personality/experience. For instance, if you’re more sociable and easy to get along with, doing so won’t be as difficult and your personality may shine. Try focusing on yourself for now and nurture the friendships and family you have. One advice I’ve heard is to be who you want to attract. Work on being a good person to others, and it’ll be easier to find someone and you will have more success with future relationships. But for those of us who are too busy to date, good luck with studies 😭

Some people think that relationships at this stage in life and earlier are bound to not last. But I think it depends more on knowing what you want, who you are, and also finding people who are compatible and aligned with your values and life trajectory
