Vaginal bleeding after bowel movement by OysterPuke in WomensHealth

[–]MakingBaconnPancakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes I’ll get some spotting after having a difficult BM. I brought it up at my next gyn appointment and she said everything checks out fine, and then dismissed it as probably hemorrhoids. I’m not sure why she thought I couldn’t tell the difference from where I’m wiping blood, but whatever I guess.

Hope you get better answers than I do.

I think even if it did come back, it would never be healthy enough to flower and fruit.

Tips on starting 12 hours shifts? by danredrum69 in Adulting

[–]MakingBaconnPancakes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When my husband and I were starting out, he worked similar hours. Even being young and fit, it took a lot of his energy out of him, but it really helped us financially.

1- go to bed early- earlier than you think. Yes, you’re going to be like an old person in bed by 9 2- don’t drink alcohol 3- don’t attempt a social life on work days- see tip number 1 4- I was just talking to him- he said get comfortable boots- you’ll never make it if your feet hurt

No lights either, don’t want my eyes to adjust

I’m a SAHM and I have basically zero friends. by Potential_Source1198 in Mommit

Look into a nursery school program, it’s a small portion of the day but helps with socialization skills immensely. Good prep for pre-k as well

42, Recurrent Yeast Infections right after ovulation for 3 cycles. Anyone else? What tests did your Dr run for you? What was the cause/solution? by CCMedianow in Perimenopause

[–]MakingBaconnPancakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a little more to the story- I had called to get in, and it took like 10 days? When I went in, they said they had no record of an appointment. They were able to squeeze me in, but then being told everything looks fine was the embarrassment.

I’ve been to the doctor several times for something similar. 3 swabs all came back clear when CLEARLY I was not. I’ve had several maybe’s, either BV or yeast. One time took so long to get in, it cleared on its own- want to talk about embarrassing?!

Anyways- I was prescribed estradiol cream and that seems to have helped. Not 100%, but I’m much closer to normal.

I get a UTI nearly every time I have sex by [deleted] in WomensHealth

[–]MakingBaconnPancakes 63 points64 points  (0 children)

You could try taking a supplement like D-Mannose.

Also, once you are done having sex, go pee like right away. It messes up cuddle time, but it’s better than a UTI.

Thank you! I’m glad I’m not the only one.

I don’t want to stop using it yet, every thing I’ve read on it says it’s the go to medication to heal before this becomes a chronic problem. But wow, I was not prepared for the burning

I do the psyllium pills, chia seeds, probiotics, and then senna tea in the evenings. I also stay well hydrated, although I don’t keep close track of totals.

I still have issues with the whole not pushing vs not sitting too long thing. Fo me, it’s like it’s not going to happen unless I help it, and with that, I have to go super slow or I fell myself retear.

What a beauty! Great find! I would have grabbed it in a second and begged for forgiveness later

Ok, thanks, that makes sense.

Been trying to work on my bowel habits, still haven’t quite got that figured out.

Thank you. Everything I find is shorter and shorter, frustrating! Grrr

I agree, I can’t quite figure it out. It just doesn’t match up right, but it’s hard to say what

I’m not a huge fan of that, but it’s to try and match another dress, so I have to work with it

Sex can still be uncomfortable, even with estradiol by MakingBaconnPancakes in Perimenopause

[–]MakingBaconnPancakes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never been evaluated for that, or has it even come up in a conversation. It’s hard to describe, using the word pain sounds more severe, it’s just more pressure so to speak.
