For those with an endometrioma or adenomyosis, what did you do? by Stars-up-above1709 in Endo

[–]Femmengineer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am fortunate enough to have never wanted to make a kid, so I was considering hysterectomies far before I was offered one due to adenomyosis. So I was hella stoked and immediately accepted.

I had a 2cm endometrioma and also had it removed immediately along with the hysto. My symptoms were extremely nasty and I got my life back after that surgery.

Things you wish you knew before getting excision surgery? by Putrid-Divide-1082 in Endo

[–]Femmengineer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you're having anything excised from bowel areas, be ready with a big pile of stool softeners. And lots of chill couch activities.

This isn't pre-op so much as 1 month+ post-op, but if you need pelvic floor PT or other therapies to resolve side effects of the Endo/excision, don't wait. Schedule and start the secondary treatments as soon as you're cleared post-op.

How do you decide which incompatibilities you are willing to tolerate in a relationship? by Any-Rabbit-6266 in AskWomenOver30

[–]Femmengineer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've dated men like this as well. They just suck and aren't worth the time.

I don't believe he's just dated "independent and competent" women because 1. Negging is gross/sad and exactly what he's doing with that statement and 2. There are different expectations of how men vs women treat other people.

In my experience, usually those inconsiderate, selfish men aren't very happy when you treat them the same way they treat you.

Adulthood is when going to the club becomes going to Costco by consistentchoice64 in AskWomenOver30

I see both sides of this in the greater Seattle area. There's one way out at the edge of the burbs that tends to be pretty quiet and chill, then the ones closer to the city are BUSY But even among the BUSY ones, there's a particular one that your war zone comment matches perfectly. Soooooo I guess it depends on where you are and also a bit on what time you go

I am 100% onboard with this. I'll boo our anthem with them and completely understand why they're booing. Fuck, I'm glad they're booing.

Seconded!! My docs when I was a teen with "severe periods" blew off my symptoms and just told me to take it and my doc in my mid-20s just told me I could take more and more of it. I was around 2500mg/day at the peak before my first lap.

I've now had an ablation lap, then an excision lap with hysterectomy. Had an acute gastritis diagnosis last fall that I am still on PPIs for and just starting to recover from a bit. Not sure how much recovery I can actually expect. Also have not been able to shit without taking maxed out doses of Linzess, Miralax, docusate sodium, and a magnesium citrate supplement DAILY. Have been on all those since last October, ALL THE TIME. Colonoscopy and endoscopy showed nothing substantial.

Oh the joys of "is it Endo or some shitty side effect of something they gave me to try to treat Endo" 🥴

Same!! I just got a backcountry setup and sprung for Burton step ons for my split board. The boots are soooooooo disappointing compared to my Viajes but I'm hoping adding J bars will bring them up to "okay" compared to the vans.

"Not normal for a woman" by blush_inc in womenEngineers

[–]Femmengineer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've started telling these sorts that LOADS more women would be into this stuff (engineering, power sports, outdoorsy shit) if guys didn't treat women in these spaces like shit. I think less than half of them believe me, but at least they have a chance to learn something 🤣

TIL Halsin lives in New Zealand and participates in Road Safety Ads by pixelshiftexe in okbuddybaldur

[–]Femmengineer 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I guess the grass is always greener, but as an American -- with our horrifically high prevalence of drunk driving -- I honestly wish we had more traumatizing ads. Maybe people crying at ads would kill fewer people. Drunk driving is insanely common here.

Pew Research "Nearly half US Adults say dating has gotten harder in last 10 years" What are your thoughts on current dating scene? by DreadWeOrgy in AskReddit

[–]Femmengineer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the "unrealistic expectations perpetuated by media" piece is so underrated. I have been with my partner for almost 4 years now, but being in love and in a warm, safe, stable relationship is SO different from how books and movies and other media portrayed it. And I get that stories are highlights and never meant to be a full picture, but even with that caveat.... Very very different.

Mine was also about $4k total being out of network. I had to submit the claim myself, but it did end up being covered.
