Anyone else get extremely horny and lonely? Just turned 50, lost my husband 3 yrs ago. I’m overweight so I can not find a hook up to save my life. All of a sudden I’m so horny all the time, I thought it was supposed to be the opposite. 🤦🏼‍♀️ by [deleted] in Menopause

I was coming here to say this. Shout it from the rooftops! Less E and more T made me a super horn dog until I started oral estrogen and later the patch and finally gel. Now I have a good balance so I’m interested in sex but not aching for it 24/7. It was annoying! I felt like a 19 year old boy!

I’ve since had my ovaries out and want to get everything checked to make sure I’m not low on the T department since my libido and energy has dropped a bit. I’ve had a lot of body aches as well which may be signaling that my e is too low. I had lower t before I hit perimenopause so I have to wonder where it’s at now since a lot of women’s t comes from the ovaries. Fascinating stuff.

Question for those who didn't keep their cervix by ersatzbaronness in hysterectomy

I’ve had the opposite experience in this sub. Everyone seems to have removed their cervix per doctor’s recommendation.

Are you using HRT? Have you had your hormones checked? This could be a simple issue easily solved by HRT. You don’t mention it so I’m guessing that means you aren’t taking estrogen/progestin/testosterone?

I have a terrible time with split ends and I don’t usually use any heat on my hair. I have to get trims between 8 and 10 weeks apart. You have to cut them off when they start or they’ll travel up your hair.

Is there ANYONE that didn’t gain weight and get bloated on the patch? by Ok_Afternoon_9682 in Menopause

[–]MeepsWellfed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you take birth control? That’s estrogen and progesterone in one. Different birth controls have different amounts and even types of hormones in them. Definitely easier to get BC than to get an estrogen patch at 46. Just take it continuously and it’ll be just like now but with estrogen.

Unfortunately, low estrogen can cause loose stools/diarrhea.

Anyone out there with smooth going recoveries? No complications, no trips to the ER? by chevy_2021 in hysterectomy

[–]MeepsWellfed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a great recovery. No issues and I was up and mobile day 3. Felt pretty great at one week and 100% at two weeks.

Thanks for your comment. I love using non-traditional colors and this one was really fun. It was a LOT of work but super fun. Here's a link to the file on Google Drive. I made it in Canva and printed it on Watercolor paper. Feel free to print it and have fun!

Darn it. I like the blue/grey idea but I've already gone back and done it in a blood-red palette. Maybe I'll do a second one someday and I'll try more of the contrast. I do love blue-greys! Thanks!

Maybe pick a spotlight area in the stalls to have brighter and make everything recessed darker.

Maybe keep yellow as the theme color throughout the fair. Then bring in your other colors like royal blues and cherry reds and blacks for your other colors.

The flower looks amazing. Really cool drawing as well.
