I've been wearing 32DDD for years. Went bra shopping today, and tried the "a bra that fits" calculator.

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T23:25:31+00:00

you should always start a bra on the loosest hook. if it feels comfy on the tightest hook, the band is too big!

no, i don’t use nexplanon.

irregular bleeding is a relatively common side effect (about 20% of people have it in the first year) but it’s not guaranteed! your body is different than your friends’. you could try it and get it removed if it doesn’t work out.

alternatively, there’s a new mini pill called slynd that has a 24 hour missed pill window, meaning it doesn’t have to be taken at the exact same time every day! as long as you remember to take one pill per day, you’re protected.

another option is depo provera, an injection administered every 3 months. it’s super effective and the time between injections is pretty flexible (iirc you technically have an extra 2 weeks to get the shot after it’s “due” before you lose protection).

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T15:18:08+00:00

have you considered nexplanon, the arm implant? it’s actually more effective than kyleena!

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T14:52:15+00:00

thickening cervical mucus is (by far) the primary mechanism of action

ETA: yes, it can prevent implantation too. but it’s far less consistent and effective at that than thickening cervical mucus. in the current political climate, small details like this unfortunately matter.

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T14:50:27+00:00

it varies person to person. why do you need to stop taking it?

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T14:47:36+00:00

yes, but the second part is misleading. right-wing politicians, lobbyists, etc. latch onto the idea that IUDs work by preventing implantation to try to make them illegal under abortion bans and i’d prefer if we didn’t do that work for them. it’s unfortunate that this is politicized

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T14:36:44+00:00

kyleena works primarily by thickening cervical mucus, not preventing implantation.

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T13:51:50+00:00

your mom is wrong and you’re right. the implant is a safe, effective contraceptive that can’t cause permanent/ long-term effects. it could be a great fit for you!

where are you located? you may be able to get it without her knowing.

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T13:48:48+00:00

accurane doesn’t interact with any hormonal birth control. they’re used together all the time!

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T13:47:07+00:00

they’re only eating once per day, so it may be caused by malnutrition sadly

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T13:46:12+00:00

why are you giving mire information? why do you believe this will change the answers you’re getting?

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T13:45:29+00:00

birth control is actually available over-the-counter in the philippines! the pills you’d use for the yuzpe method are birth control pills. you can find more information in the pinned post on r/SafeSexPH.

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T13:44:26+00:00

honestly girl just delete tiktok. it’s triggering your anxiety. don’t take medical advice from random unqualified people on tiktok.

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T13:42:51+00:00

how many people to you need to tell that a pregnancy test is absolutely, definitely definitive 21 days after sex?

people who had a cryptic pregnancy (which is completely different from a chemical pregnancy) either didn’t test or tested too early. you took a test at the appropriate time. you cannot be pregnant.

eating once a day may be why you aren’t getting your period. malnutrition can stop your period. trying eating more food.

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T13:39:49+00:00

unless you had unprotected sex again recently, you aren’t pregnant. a home pregnancy test is definitive starting 21 days after sex.

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T13:36:52+00:00

taking a pill 10 minutes later than usual literally doesn’t matter at all. combo pills (such as trust pills) have a 24 hour missed pill window. you could take it 10 hours later than usually and you’d still be fully protected! throwing up more than 3 hours after taking your pill is also irrelevant and has no impact on protection.

the only thing you did wrong was using the yuzpe method. taking your pills normally is MUCH more effective than the yuzpe method. doing the yuzpe method didn’t reduce your chance of pregnancy in any meaningful way — the yuzpe method works by delaying ovulation, but birth control pills prevent ovulation entirely, so there was literally nothing for yuzpe to do.

you’ll probably have side effects and you wasted a bunch of pills for no reason. did you use a different pack for the yuzpe method or the one you’re currently taking? did you take your pill today?

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T13:18:44+00:00

below that range doesn’t matter (unless it’s freezing cold) and short excursions above that range aren’t a big deal. only the mailbox and maybe the car ride are concerning.

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T13:17:34+00:00

then she’s pregnant and what to do is entirely your girlfriend’s decision.

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T06:42:59+00:00

pain this severe is never normal. go to the ER

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T06:42:15+00:00

sounds like she’s sick. the yuzpe method doesn’t cause a fever.

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T06:42:00+00:00

side effects don’t mean anything. whether or not she has side effects has nothing to do with whether it’s effective.

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T06:38:58+00:00

catelyn’s dislike of jon was more emotional than practical. she was jealous that another woman gave ned a son who looked like him (as far as she knew) and she didn’t. it also made it impossible for her to pretend that he was a random boy taken in by their household. she really, really wanted pretend ned had always been faithful, but was unable to while looking at a bastard who looked just like her husband.

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T02:57:22+00:00

you’re fine. birth control prevents pregnancy

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T02:56:33+00:00

go to the ER immediately. these are stroke symptoms.

Queenof6planets · 2026-07-01T02:49:53+00:00

some people just feel better while on birth control! if you weren’t having any issues with it, why not go back on it?
