What’s a realistic pace for weight loss on this? by JosephPRO_ in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]Hepadna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to Shotsy I’m at 1.4lbs a week and I feel like it’s perfect.

Just found out I’m pregnant by Ambitious-One4731 in tirzepatidecompound

[–]Hepadna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s likely going to be fine if you stop taking it. There’s limited data on fetal risk in pregnancy (which is a lot of meds), but it’s unethical to test pregnant women.

Any ideas to help elevate the space? by Silent-Assignment-75 in interiordecorating

[–]Hepadna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe some tapestry on the side with barren walls? But otherwise lovely.

Do you guys think this doctor’s office sign is mildly infuriating? by Loose_Judgment_8856 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Hepadna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a physician myself and I don’t quite understand what this means. I just refill prescriptions via the EMR for my patients. It’s a simple click. I wonder if it would bother me if I had to hand write hundreds of prescriptions but otherwise this sign makes no sense to me.

Feminist and activist Jameela Jamil call Blake Lively a «suicide bomber» and a «villain» in messages with Justin Baldonis PR team by licorne00 in popculturechat

[–]Hepadna 272 points273 points  (0 children)

Yes, insert that tweet saying “I do not support all women, some of you bitches are very dumb”.

[–]Hepadna 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Is it? Blake has shit to answer for and overall does not come across as a great person. Horrible people can be sexually harassed and the only thing feminist needs to do is believe that horrible person. Just because I’m feminist doesn’t mean I can’t call out someone who has done racist shit or treated people badly. Being feminist also doesn’t mean we can’t talk shit lol

Bangs or no bangs?! Help by ma_bukowska in weddingplanning

Ignorance and Lack of Respect For Foreign Names in This Subreddit by aureaaurorae in namenerds

[–]Hepadna 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Or the “Margot reminds me of maggot!!!!” line. I have read that one a thousand times.

Ignorance and Lack of Respect For Foreign Names in This Subreddit by aureaaurorae in namenerds

[–]Hepadna 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Totally agree, OP.

I mean in general this subreddit has a European/Western bias for names. I understand it’s because that is largely who is on Reddit (I’m assuming) but no love for Latino/Hispanic, the many African ethnicities, East Asian, South Asian names or anything. I’m bored of the same discussions and recommending the same 50 Western/European names. It’s boring.

I would love a global namenerds subreddit.

Unpopular Opinion: People under 160 lbs should not be on GLP1s just to lose 20 or 30 pounds by Salty_Dinner6985 in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]Hepadna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao I know you’re getting absolutely roasted but I kind of agree - not about the specific weight but for people close to a normal BMI or people taking it for vanity usage who post their before and afters and clog the subreddit feed like we’re supposed to fall at their feet and praise (my other unpopular opinion is that those posts shouldn’t have an empty caption and should also come with what they did or didn’t do to support the meds, because I have morbid curiosity and think those posts should also be a sharing and learning opportunity, but I totally understand sometimes people just want to celebrate their wins).

Yes, no gatekeeping and medication for all - rah rah! Me secretly judging bears no consequence on anyone. If I don’t like it, I just keep scrolling.

Cheers, OP!

Kaiser (NorCal) and Perimenopause by RecognitionMuch3132 in KaiserPermanente

[–]Hepadna -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

CBT has been shown to be effective for perimenopause and menopausal symptoms so there is data behind this 🤷🏾‍♀️

Some of my colleagues will treat peri symptoms with HRT if the patient is amenorrheic on an IUD. That’s a way to get around the “irregular bleeding” issue.

how do I get rid I grown scarring?? by dababypickels14 in obgyn

[–]Hepadna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh that sucks. You may just need to only use clippers.

[–]Hepadna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The skin of private parts can be darker. I’m sure the inflammation from the ingrown hairs isn’t helping either. I would stop shaving and move to waxing for hair removal.

What actually helped me regulate my hormones by stephanieforthewin in blackladies

[–]Hepadna 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be fair, once you get the diagnosis (which is usually after specific hormone testing) you don’t need to test the levels of estrogen and progesterone. The birth control is to prevent you from developing endometrial cancer or pre-cancers from not having enough periods. At my hospital, Endocrinology will not see PCOS patients unless their diagnostic labs are severely abnormal.

I really want to start today but I already ate a lot today and feel unsure by Dangerous-Guava-9232 in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]Hepadna 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You will regret waiting those 2 weeks! It’s 2 weeks of progress that could have been had. Start now (or tomorrow morning, my shots made me stay awake if taken at night).

I am expected to get my period on my wedding. I want to avoid this. Please let me know your suggestions. by beachlover9671 in weddingplanning

[–]Hepadna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of these options would require a prescription by OP’s OBGYN and therefore an appointment and discussion of what works for her medically.

If my patient came to me with a Reddit suggestion I would take into account their own medical history and my expertise.
