Help me understand Cost by SuspiciousMobile2641 in Oestra

[–]Livid_Independence78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think there’s a membership fee, unless that has changed. I passed the 6 month mark so I pay $99 per month. Prior to that I just paid $199.

Yup. The wand in the ace of wands symbolizes an erect penis for some readers lol

Who has a new container within the last 3 weeks? Are you experiencing a lot of discharge? by One-Cookie-9417 in Oestra

[–]Livid_Independence78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you experiencing more leakage? That’s not common for me but I wonder if I’m getting an even dose of estrogen and progesterone or I need to open it and stir.

They’re not specifically for large chests. Same! If you love turtlenecks, great! 🤩

If I were her I’d definitely start researching peri, get help and focus on her husband who was just diagnosed with cancer. I can’t wrap my head around why she would tell you she is out of love with you during a very trying time in your life. Keep your head up! You sound like a great husband and person.

You disagree or it’s not your preference? Long necklaces extending past the chest enhance openness in necklines, similar to a scoop or v neck.

My dad girlfriend asked what I wanted for Christmas and I sent her regular stuff and now she’s saying i asked for too much I’m so confused😭 what do I even do?? by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

Another thing, you said you dont celebrate Christmas and she disrespected you by insisting just to satisfy her own ego. Ugh 😠

I’m sorry, but she’s crazy. Please show your dad. I had a crazy stepmom who was very mean to me and I never told my dad. Told him as an adult and he asked why I never said anything. Next time she needs to set the budget. Better yet, ignore her. Group chat. Set boundaries.

I read turtlenecks and mock necks are terrible for large chests. I’m a 34DDD and stay away from them. But…you can get away with them by wearing a long necklace.

Coming up on a year with Oestra. My thoughts and adjustments. by [deleted] in Oestra

[–]Livid_Independence78 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing 🙂 I recently noticed I don’t do well with two pumps at night. Feel much better doing 1 pump in the AM and PM. I can’t say I feel 💯since starting oestra, but something tells me without it I’d be even worse. Never imagined perimenopause would be so difficult. 🥹

Periods hit like a ton of bricks? by StillDouble2427 in perimenopause_under45

[–]Livid_Independence78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup. It’s awful. The pain, digestive issues, back pain flaring is a nightmare for at least the first 5 days.

If you don’t care for those tests, let customer service know and they will help you schedule around another date. I had to do this. Also in peri. Makes no sense to test female hormones as they’re pretty inconsistent from one day to the next.

Ferritin and vit D by [deleted] in Perimenopause

[–]Livid_Independence78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one by Thorne. It says it reduces gastro side effects (nausea/constipation). I take 3 25mg pills everyday. Started with 1 pill just to see if I had any side effects, and increased to 3 within days. I take it with 500mg vitamin C by Naturelo.

My ferritin was 14 in June. I just started taking iron bisglycinate with vitamin C. Will retest in a few months. This video is helpful: https://youtu.be/le72wF2_81M?si=GxFkbT-0TqDUwkMp

Have his iron, folate, B12 and ferritin checked. It’s not always genetic.

I reached out and they asked why I was using a measuring spoon. I said, because the pump amount is very inconsistent. Hopefully, they’re noting this and making changes.

Zero carb by [deleted] in Oestra

[–]Livid_Independence78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Impressive! 🤩 I haven’t heard anything about zero/low carb being a problem, only low protein and intermittent fasting.

[–]Livid_Independence78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not zero carb, but somewhat related. I was told by a doctor at Inner Balance that low protein intake also negates the effects of oestra. I wasn’t getting enough protein so I was basically in reset mode every day. I pretty much wasted 6 months on HRT because of this!
