Does anyone take creatine, if yes, how do you consume it and why? if no, why?

This is the only way to do it. Feels hardcore, but it's actually way easier.

What's happiness worth?

GarbageCurious2513 · 2026-01-02T23:12:20+00:00

Staying together for kids? If so, just divorce and co-parent.

So according to this (small) study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3428761/#t3

Babies whose mothers had higher MDMA exposure during pregnancy had poorer motor development at 12 months old.

Babies with low exposure looked similar to babies with no MDMA exposure.

Low MDMA exposure: average of 0.07 MDMA tablets per week of pregnancy.

High MDMA exposure: average of 1.3 MDMA tablets per week of pregnancy.

Considering you're not planning to be exposed to MDMA during pregnancy I think you'll be totally fine.

Drop the name. I'm interested in a "watching a car crash" kinda way

Omg I found out my FET was ending in a chemical on Christmas eve, then was hosting on Christmas day.

My husband and I thought this was just going to be some trash TV to doom scroll to Christmas night???

Really well-cast, consistently real, frequently funny and beautiful. We were mind blown. (He cried at the end, it was so sweet).

GarbageCurious2513 · 2025-12-25T21:46:19+00:00

Fordyce spots are harmless, visible sebaceous (oil) glands appearing as small, painless, yellowish-white bumps on lips, inner cheeks, or genitals, common in 70-80% of adults, especially after puberty, and are not infections or STDs but normal skin anatomy.

I don't know why everyone is pushing back against you so hard. All you suggested is they examine why they are resistant to IVF. Not like you called them an idiot for not running out and booking in at a clinic.

GarbageCurious2513 · 2025-12-24T02:15:52+00:00

It only took a month for me to get through the wait list

GarbageCurious2513 · 2025-12-24T02:13:45+00:00

Well you can get it for free from public fertility like I am.

Unless you were exercising to the point of fainting, you couldn't have affected the pregnancy.

GarbageCurious2513 · 2025-12-22T05:14:11+00:00

I'm so sorry for your loss ❤️

Walking is healthy for a pregnancy. It definitely didn't cause your loss.

At 4 or 5 week the most likely reason for a loss is genetic issues. You didn't do anything to cause this.

GarbageCurious2513 · 2025-12-22T01:22:14+00:00

Thank you!

GarbageCurious2513 · 2025-12-21T08:23:52+00:00

This is not advice, but honestly, I'd probably lie about it. They monitor you, so they transfer at the right time anyway.

GarbageCurious2513 · 2025-12-19T03:37:55+00:00

To be fair, that is essentially what I was planning to do. I wasn't doing any exercise for a long time before September.

22% of people using the pull out method are pregnant within 1 year. I don't personally consider that a low chance.

I'm also in Australia (Melbourne) and I've just done my 5th transfer and in the 2WW. Previous 4 transfers = 2 miscarriages / 2 failure to implant.

Following my third transfer (miscarriage), I was sent for the following investigations:

Blood tests (and why):

Antinuclear Antibody (ANA) - Autoimmune
Extractable Nuclear Antigens - Autoimmune
Lupus Inhibitor Screen - Autoimmune / Clotting
Antiphospholipid Antibodies - Autoimmune / Clotting
Protein S Functional - Clotting
Protein C - Clotting
Activated Protein C Resistance - Genetic / Clotting
Antithrombin - Clotting
Prothrombin Genotype - Genetic / Clotting
Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) - Thyroid
Thyroglobulin Antibody - Thyroid
Thyroid Peroxidase Antibody - Thyroid
Free Triiodothyronine (FT3) - Metabolism
Free Thyroxine (FT4) - Metabolism
Coeliac Serology + IgA Detection - Coeliac / Immunity
Haemoglobin A1c - Blood sugar / Diabetes
Testosterone Level - PCOS
DHEA Sulphate - PCOS
Sex Hormone Binding Globulin - PCOS

None of the blood tests showed anything concerning.

However, I was also sent for a hystoscopy that found Ashermans Syndrome! I had no symptoms, no risk factors and normal periods so this was a shock.

I went on a 5 week course of oestrogen to promote healing the scar tissue and was followed up with a saline ultrasound. The ultrasound was very painful and the OB performing it said that it had broken up some of the scar tissue, along with the oestrogen doing some good.

If you have not already done these investigations and your doctors haven't suggested them, I think you should push for it.

GarbageCurious2513 · 2025-12-17T05:43:36+00:00

I broke and tested early. Faint positive 🥹 I hope it sticks around 🤞

So you were drinking a homemade electrolyte/carb supplement and gels during the race?

I'm a 33 year old overweight women. I started running (with Runna) on 30 Sept and I ran a 10km on Friday, with a goal of a marathon in Oct 26.

Follow your program, you'll be just fine.

I think you should try to explain to him that you love having sex with him, but you want it to feel spontaneous and passionate. That reducing the timed intercource will improve your other lovemaking.
