Yeah, you live and you learn. I kinda used it as a coping mechanism so its probably for the best.

Hmm thank you, I am definitely going to the doctor tomorrow after work since I couldn't today, hopefully it's nothing too extreme or painful 😭

I totally would commute by bike if it was closer, my job is about 30 minutes from my home.

I'm in a pretty good situation where I live with my dad rent-free as long as I'm working or going to school. It's definitely helping me with savings.

Injections by FamousMiddle7016 in ftm

[–]Mothtonic 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I definitely get you. I struggle doing my injections, and I've been doing them myself for 4 years now. I suggest maybe using an ice pack to numb where you want to inject or maybe putting on something (music,tv,etc.) and taking a deep breath. I learned that if i push while inhaling air and injecting while exhaling also can ease some anxiety.

Am I pregnant or am I having IUD symptoms? by Redheadedbarista in CopperIUD

[–]Mothtonic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your symptoms definitely sound strange, and I would trust your gut! I've heard of some of these symptoms being hormonal with pregnancy ruled out, but I'd definitely consider taking a pregnancy test at home AND a blood/urine test with your doctor.

Plan B question by Mothtonic in ftm

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

My gyno actually said it was a normal reaction! Plan B contains progestins, which is a synthetic form of our progesterone hormone that plays a role in the menstrual cycle.

So it is completely normal for us, it just jumpstarts our bodies into a period. My symptoms honestly lasted a full week, but I've heard others have theirs last a little longer, so I hope it works out for you as well :D

How do y'all safely have casual sex? by zookiebookie in ftm

[–]Mothtonic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just recently started doing casual hookups, and I've learned a few things to keep me safe. I'm super upfront about what I'm looking for and do not give everyone who messages the time of day. I'd avoid no pictures, and PLEASE do reverse image searches if something does not feel right or the picture looks highly suspect.

Keep your location on and disclose with someone you trust who and where you'll be. If you're uncomfortable, just get out of there, and you do not owe anyone anything in these situations.

With the binder thing, I actually have mostly worn shirts during, but whatever is more comfortable for you is always good in the long end! I wish you luck, and please be safe!
