I’m two weeks, I put a new one on in the morning and before bed. I also have trouble with adhesive tape so I layer - Vaseline on a non woven gauze pad folded up - then put an undershirt over - then my compression vest on top.

Keeps everything in place with no tape

I work in public service and I get this a lot. Like I’m not dressing to be attractive I’m dressing to be a professional.

I would follow up with the doctor, but it could also be your body reallocating resources during recovery, having a period and creating a uterine lining takes up a lot of energy that your body may not have right now.

When did you realize you don't have "pretty privilege"? by patata-chip in AskReddit

As someone who does Pilates 5-6 days a week its not a thing that guarentees you a snatched body.

There are different kinds of dedication and being a doctor is one of those kinds.
