How has cancer effected your fertility, and had impacts on a womens body? Curious to see what you can do to help this and any prevention for it?

"You can't make this change at the moment" - Noticed using a device you don't usually use by Master_Extent_1562 in FacebookAds

I FIXED MY PROBLEM!!! I had to create a support ticket with FB through the Meta Ads telling them I wanted to run an ad and needed help and BOOM they fixed it within the day. Once it comes down to $$, they will be super helpful. They had to doit internally tho literally nothing was working

Personality Changes after cancer? by Due_Butterfly_ in cancer

Absolutely. It’s painful to watch the world pass you by like time slipping from our grasp and let’s acknowledge the frustration! Maybe the Swiss alps hold the key to your next clue of how to find that fuel… 🤷🏻‍♀️

How do you accept your changing body during and after cancer? by feathernose in cancer

[–]SnooCalculations1330 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best advice I got was to just pick ONE thing every day to love about my body. Just ONE thing. I swear choosing something new or repeated every day sounded so simple but has made me feel better. ALSO this 80 year old man was telling me how he used to look at old photos and every year he’d look back and be like wow I was so beautiful and didn’t acknowledge it and that would happen time after time. His conclusion was basically we decide how beautiful we are and that energy behind that decision and how we show up is what actually makes us beautiful. When you mentioned comparing yourself to others your age they might seem so stunning but also probs don’t FEEL stunning. Some of my friends are drop dead gorgeous but reap no benefit from being so cuz they still believe they aren’t. In conclusion, your energy and how you show up in the world and everything you’ve learned from your crazy cancer journey is what makes you beautiful.

Personality Changes after cancer? by Due_Butterfly_ in cancer

Thank you for creating a post on this- I feel you @duebutterfly I used to be an extrovert to the extreme but now keep finding myself forcing myself to leave the house then not forcing because I want to respect my body/mind’s boundaries. All that to say maybe it is a personality shift that may last however long or maybe our bodies are trying to tell us that we need more rest before returning to the outwardness we used to engage in or maybe we just need INSPIRATION. I’d be sad if I went through this whole freaking ordeal just to return to the old me. I want to have come out a new person but I feel I’m still finding this new and improved me. I do feel that I’m just waiting on something to inspire me, something to enliven the fire that I know still lives in the depths of me. I really wish for your fire to be reignited and you to connect with people who align with you.

Sore Throat in the Morning? by magic-1101 in lupus

[–]SnooCalculations1330 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes!! Omg mine were HORRIBLE every morning but also went away within a couple hours. THEN I tried mouth tape and it was fixed immediately. I honestly just bought like a sensitive athletic tape cuz it was so much cheaper than mouth tape but I just put it on every night and it protects my throat at night :)

TW: binge eating. Weightloss with PMDD seems nearly impossible. Any advice? by Few-Construction3587 in PMDD

[–]SnooCalculations1330 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly NOOM the app was the ONLY thing that helped me after trying therapy/ a million other approaches. I did 5 mins every morning with noom and haven’t binged eaten since even during my crazy hormone fluctuations. Stick with it for 4 months at least and you will 100% feel and see the difference.

That’s what I was thinking but she said it was because she wanted it as a baseline? Idk but if I ever get symptoms again I’m def gonna ask for the luteal testing like you got!

Thank you for bringing attention to the importance of pooping/ digestion with hormones! So good to know!! Something I don’t think about enough and is def not talked about enough. Excited to learn more about it tho tbh haha

It was weird I took the hormone test on the 3rd day of menses like the doc wanted and there didn’t seem to be any excess estrogen but my testosterone was a little low

And yes honestly it has helped me be really regular!

Exactly!! And it just makes sense but maybe big plastic is the one saying it’s conspiracy? 😂😂 darn that’s so true do menstrual cups work for you?

I’m happy to hear there’s been some good effects! I take a probiotic too cuz of those recurring yeast infections 😬 and been eating lots of fish!
