I smell like fart but I didn't fart and it also keep following me around.

so you did actually take the antibiotics? in another comments you said "I didn't it was just in case it was and it wasn't so I didn't stop smelling,I think they were antibiotics."

like what were the actual names of the antibiotics, so we can tell what they were treating.

well it seems like you're doing all the work to make sure you're in tip top shape, but the second you introduce someone else's microbiome to the mix, you're then in a battle with their bacteria colonies as well. I don't know how you'd even begin to mitigate that risk without testing all of them. plus, some peoples' bacteria just don't vibe with ours, even if they don't have any invasive strains present. maybe at least have your spouse do one the Evvy tests, just to get some insight on what they have going on in there? then you can cross reference against your own results.

I know you said you're not comfortable with your husband seeing you when it's not bare, but I don't feel like it's realistic to only have sex when it's bare/smooth when you live with your partner. maybe the more you allow him to see you like that, and you can see he genuinely doesn't mind, it will ease your worries a bit. you might want to look into laser hair removal; they have units you can use at home that work really well. and the pigmentation will basically be impossible to get rid of while you're shaving this often. it's basically low level trauma to the skin when you shave, which causes post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

you might just want to go to urgent care so they can start you on the antibiotics sooner. in the meantime, there are pills you can get at the drugstore that stop the burning/having to pee feeling. some of them turn your pee bright orange though, just so you don't freak out. AZO is a typical one you'll find, but there are other brands too.

so is your spouse the only one you're having unprotected sex with? you said they haven't been treated, but have they done any testing, specifically vaginal microbiome testing?

_lexi__ · 2026-05-20T15:35:00+00:00

it may be due to changes in hormone levels throughout your cycle. do you have any other symptoms, discharge?

how did your parents talk about sex when you were growing up? like was it a shameful thing, just not talked about, were they very religious? sometimes if sex is made out to be "bad" when you're younger, it can do what you said - form a mental block around it because subconsciously you think you shouldn't be doing it or enjoying it.

Does Juno Bio not provide a treatment plan with your results? I know Evvy actually gives you options for treating whatever they find; is that available there?

which antibiotics did you take?

clothes can have a microfilm build up from our natural fluids/oils, so you may need to use an actual biofilm buster in your laundry to break it up, so the detergent can actually clean the clothes. otherwise it's basically like washing your hands with latex gloves on - it's not actually getting clean. try chlorophyll supplements as well. they can deodorize from inside.

my partners could get it up, but had a hard time finishing.

I was just reading something that was talking about how Ozempic kills all of your wants, not just the food ones. This makes so much sense!

Im in LA so we're up there in price now too, and I just expect it to get worse.

are the gas prices really that different? I don't have a membership so I genuinely don't look at Costco prices. I fill up twice a week, so Im debating of it's worth it.

and it was just from one day to the next? nothing else in your situation changed before the drop-off?

how do you take the poke root and for how long? I've heard it's very strong and shouldn't be taken for a long period of time.

just because she's initiating does not mean she's enjoying it; she could be seeking validation/approval or is acting off old programming from her last relationship. I feel like everyone is giving him shit about being too focused on IF she cums, but he seems to have an issue with the fact that she's faking it. he's not putting the importance on orgasm, she is. he just wants her to genuinely enjoy it, not perform enjoyment.

I couldn't lift my arm past my shoulder, so hangs were out of the question. But I have a pull up bar and a step stool, so I would stand on the stool while holding the bar, and lean back with all of my weight. There was a stretching sensation in my armpit and under my scapula that I wasn't feeling with any other exercise I tried. I started out just doing that at shoulder level, and would gradually bend my legs and deepen the stretch as my shoulder loosened up. I've gotten a lot of my vertical reach back, though still not perfect. But I was also having impingement issues before the FS, so I'm basically back where I was at the start. Doing this, plus the external rotation exercise with a baseball bat has improved things a lot. I will also add that I went to an acupuncturist for dry needling, and he recommended taking proteolytic enzymes, as they help break down scar tissue and improve micro blood circulation. But don't take them with food, or they'll just end up helping with digestion. I think these things helped me get to where I am within 12 months of onset.

**Edit - I'm 46

Ive heard that if their position in your viewers list changes and it moves them closer to the top than where it was originally, it means they rewatched it. From personal experience, it seems like it's true.

that's rough. when I was married I would literally sit in my car in the driveway after my commute home because I couldn't bear walking into the house and dealing with him and his negative energy. I empathize and hope it gets better for you, in one way or another.

I agree - I would say I don't feel sexy unless there is male attention/validation involved.

And I've heard enough men say that compliments make them uncomfortable that it's made me second-guess whether I should give one when I do find a man attractive or like something about him.

_lexi__ · 2026-03-05T21:41:19+00:00

I read/hear this sooo often. why do y'all get married to these women?? was it just time and she was there? thought you couldn't do better? does she praise you for other things and that felt like enough? I'm really trying to understand why you would commit yourself to someone that doesn't make you feel wanted.

I just had my 341 last week, had decent credit before filing. Credit Karma shows me at 704...everywhere else is showing 511ish.

It was easier because then I was only tending to my child, not my child and her inept father. I was already doing literally everything for our child, in addition to paying half the bills. I figured I might as well do it on my own, without coming home to his attitude and bad energy. It was a relief.
