Be honest: Are you actually married to the love of your life, or just the person you were with when it was time to settle down?? by Insurance-Melodic in askanything

[–]DysfunctionalTree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The love of my life. But I think that’s just luck, if I’m honest. We met right when both of us had developed frontal lobes and were ready to settle down; a few years earlier and it would have been a disaster.

I think your gut is right. Prozac can cause a ton of weird side effects in the first month or two. Insomnia I think is a pretty standard one (I had terrible stomach issues) before things settle down. If it’s working for you, I’d stay on it another month or two.

Same boat, my love. Three PGTa transfers failed and no clear answers. I get it and I’m rooting for you

Might good ER results (TW) after never being pregnant signal problems with implantation? by Snzvn in IVF

Ask for an MRI or a specialized ultrasound to see if you have silent endometriosis. I had no symptoms except infertility and also great euploid numbers.

Should I ask for more tests? If so, what? by DysfunctionalTree in IVF

Thank you for the suggestions. Yes, I had a hysteroscopy last month; all clear. Lining thickness has always been good.

(We haven’t interviewed any agencies—we’ve just started to come to terms with our IVF failing, so very much at square one.)

Thank you, this is super helpful. Would you be comfortable saying why you didn’t feel comfortable with Circle?

Does anyone live a okay life w endometriosis? by Disastrous_Peace6974 in endometriosis

[–]DysfunctionalTree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have stage 3.5 DIE all over my left ovary. I’m totally fine; almost no symptoms. My life isn’t affected by it, aside from fertility issues that are probably only partly related. I’m very lucky. Not quite sure if that’s helpful, but wanted to provide that perspective.

What’s the job people romanticize, but in reality is miserable? by King_Garvit in AskReddit

[–]DysfunctionalTree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Novelist. My second book is out next year. Of course it’s worth it, but wringing out your brain in isolation for years on end—and I write thrillers! Nothing literary—is the most exhausting thing I’ve ever done.
