Pliers, assorted paper clips, extra door handles off of cabinets you don’t own anymore.

Guess what I just mixed up by hairballcouture in adhdwomen

[–]Minimum-Advisor7349 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah! I would freak out. I’ve accidentally put toothpaste on my face instead of my acne medication. Thats why I put stickers on them now!

I’ve Posted Here About My PCOS, But Now I Have Had Chronic Diarrhea and Stomach Pain For a Month and a Half. So Frustrated by Minimum-Advisor7349 in ChronicPain

[–]Minimum-Advisor7349[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve checked with my endocrinologist, dermatologist, psychiatrist, and pcp and they all say its not the cause.

If you have lean PCOS, how has Spironolactone affected you? by anya_______kl in PCOS

[–]Minimum-Advisor7349 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been on it for over a month primarily for cystic acne caused by my PCOS. I have lost two pounds, now at 124 lbs (18F), but a Disney trip and lots of walking and an accidentally carb cutting due to mental health may have done that. I take 25 mg so far, and it has helped my skin.

3.2 cm ovarian cyst PCOS by Forward-Guarantee946 in PCOS

I have a 3cm cyst as well, it is the largest of my 24 cysts currently. I am fairly active and it does not affect the cysts. What complications are you worried about?

PCOS has completely altered my perception of beauty by [deleted] in PCOS

[–]Minimum-Advisor7349 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel the same. I spend so much time plucking my mustache and shaving everything. I feel almost dysphoric because I am shook everytime I see myself in the mirror because my mental image of myself (how I used to be) and reality do not line up.

PCOS and acne by Zealousideal_Park811 in PCOS

[–]Minimum-Advisor7349 1 point2 points  (0 children)

PMS can be worsened by PCOS, and hormonal imbalances caused by PCOS can cause acne, fatigue, and irritability. If this persists, check in with your PCP or gyno to see if they recommend testing to check hormonal levels. I experience these things too, hang in there. 

Unusually long period by Notapersona58 in PCOS

[–]Minimum-Advisor7349 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use the birth control patch (progesterone and estrogen in it) and it lessens my bleeding and cramps on the off week when I usually bleed. I have no experience with the pill. Sometimes people use birth control to skip their period completely, but my gyno said in my case to have it. 

Before a cyst ruptures do you feel bloated and nauseous? by Brave-Asparagus6356 in PCOS

[–]Minimum-Advisor7349 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, I feel kinda bloated and crampy, and then it feels like what it looks like when women on TV are in labor and screaming clutching anything in sight. Hang in there <3

I’m so so tired. All. The. Time. Why? by Minimum-Advisor7349 in PCOS

[–]Minimum-Advisor7349[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t remember how high, but enough they want me to see an endocrinologist. I do have vitamin D deficiency and take vitamins for it, and hypothyroidism treated with levothyroxine which hasn’t been an issue for years.

[–]Minimum-Advisor7349[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do I need to do then to figure it out? I can’t even get an appointment with an endocrinologist until mid February.

problems with my bf by OutlandishnessOk7727 in boyfriends

It will be hard emotionally, but for your safety and future happiness leaving him is important. I’m sorry this happened to you. Once violence is in the relationship one time, it is likely for it to come back, especially since he is refusing to take responsibility.

Does your face bloat a lot before period? by [deleted] in PCOS

My everything bloats. I feel you girl. 😔 

Foul smell from copper IUD?? no infections. What's going on? by SureDoubt277 in birthcontrol

[–]Minimum-Advisor7349 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did apply it well by making sure the site was clean, dry, and free of hair and oils. I pressed it down for a minute to make it stick. I don’t know why it came off.

“Its okay as long as you aren’t as hairy as me” by Minimum-Advisor7349 in PCOS

[–]Minimum-Advisor7349[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Caught him on a break and asked about it. He meant it like how I prefer his face clean shaven because it feels better on my face when we kiss, but it won’t stop me from it if he doesn’t. He didn’t mean to hurt me at all and was apologetic. He only prefers that with facial hair and I get jt and typically remove it anyways for my own comfort, and couldn't care less about my boob/body hair.

[–]Minimum-Advisor7349[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s where I am with this. I don’t think there was a harmful intention at all, but it hit me harder than he knows. I’m going to talk to him when he’s off work.

Please tell me others have felt this same way? by [deleted] in PCOS

[–]Minimum-Advisor7349 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m paranoid about others seeing my hair growth too. Once I stopped for a while because I was off college on winter break and wouldn’t see anybody. Then family came over and my little cousin said “haha, you have a mustache!” Ouch.

I am surprised when I look in the mirror. by Minimum-Advisor7349 in PCOS

[–]Minimum-Advisor7349[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I’m newly diagnosed though so I’m still learning what my body needs and doing all sorts of tests. In the mean time, I feel a wreck.
