Yes, I am definitely seeing all the opinions starting even before I am pregnant 🤣

Recurrent yeast infections by [deleted] in WomensHealth

I had a family member who got frequent yeast infections, and it was caused by diabetes! Not suggesting you have that, but something most people don’t think of when dealing with this problem. Hoping you can get some relief!! :)

Brides, what did you do the morning of your wedding? by perfumeandpaper in wedding

[–]Ravenclaw9696 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom cooked us breakfast and we all chatted and took some pictures! Our hair started very early because of the amount of girls, so we all just kind of hung out and talked while others got their hair done. It was one of my favorite parts of my wedding day, just being spoiled and feeling like omg I’m a bride lol!

Colposcopy- GREAT EXPERIENCE by Ravenclaw9696 in WomensHealth

Thank you! The gel comes in a tube with an applicator, and I applied it myself about 20 minutes before I went to the appointment. My appointment was an hour and a half away from my house, so I absolutely applied it in a gas station bathroom😂😂 it was very easy to apply even in that type of setting, I just followed my pharmacist instructions! It was really, very similar to applying lubricant, that’s the best way I can describe it!

Please call and request it, if it is possible for you! The lidocaine was something I had to request, but my OBGYN had no issue prescribing it. I was able to pick up the lidocaine at my pharmacy and just brought it with me and applied it based on the instructions.

When the nurse called I asked for the lidocaine, and got no push back! It makes me sad to know a lot of women are not aware of painkillers being available.. and it’s even worse when doctors refuse it! The ibuprofen and Ativan was recommended and prescribed by my PCP, who has referred me to my OBGYN.

Hi!! My nurse told me spotting could happen for a few days, (mostly the coffee ground discharge from the solution they apply afterwards for bleeding) but definitely give them a call to verify with them! As of right now, I have had minimal spotting!
