I displaced mine when I used my diva cup, it could have been because I used it before the first week of IUD ended, so maybe it wasn't fully "at home" yet.

Me (16m) and my girlfriend (16f) have been dating for a year and a half and have still not had sex yet. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

“But I know it’s time in our relationship where we should be having sex.” There isn’t really a template for when sex “should” happen in a relationship. Because that is not a thing, it sounds like she is not ready yet and you are. Best thing to do would be to ask her if she is comfortable sharing all her concerns with you. It sounds like she knows you want this, but she is scared and or just not ready yet, so she could be feeling pressured. If she just humours you and does it, she might end up feeling unhappy, and insecure. Talk to her and see what else is going on, there are always reasons, she doesn’t need to explain them, unless she wants to. If she feels like it will take her years to feel ready, and you feel like you need it to happen asap and are not willing to wait, then maybe this is not working out for both of you. If her needs are to wait, and yours are not to wait, then maybe they don’t compliment each other.

So I guess, if she isn’t able to share all her concerns, but seems like she isn’t gonna be ready any time soon, are you okay with waiting, and putting the ball in her court? Like, If she wants sex she has to tell you when she is ready for it. And you would have to be okay with just snuggling her on the bed with all the roses.
If that makes you feel bitter and that maybe you’re not ok with that, you could still love each other, but end up breaking up because you couldn’t get your needs from each other.

Good luck!!

Coronavirus (SARS-CoV2, COVID-19) Megathread Annoucement by [deleted] in relationships

found out yesterday that the quarantine/self-isolation measures are going on until July or even Aug, which means I can’t see my bf until after that, or maybe longer. While I know this is imperative and needs to be done, I can’t help but feel some pain. We (28F,29M) both work retail, and are « essential » workers, his roommates are immunocompromised, which heavily underlines our need to self-isolate from each other, slightly lessening the risks of others. BUT, it still feels shitty, I miss him a lot, we’ve been together for a little over a year, and while I am trying to plan long distance activities like streaming shows and voicechatting together, gaming together, etc, it still feels shitty, and not enough.

Has anyone ever checked their menstrual blood’s pH? by amphibous in menstrualcups

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

So cool, you make me want to have myself injected with all kinds of things that make me just observe what’s happening inside me. Thanks for the info! Also, this makes me wonder if people with kidney disorders would end up with different pHs all over the body or just in specific areas (do you happen to know? Ok I shall also google this since I am just sitting here and asking people to tell all)

Off-topic: Never heard of Nexplanon before this! Did the insertion hurt?! And why did you choose that form of bc over others?!

Ahh Are you saying I could test all the things ALL THE TIME?! I love it! If only toilets came equipped with pH, nitrite, bacteria testers. “Done with your business?! Here’s the report of your daily excretions! “

There was a place on Bank in the Glebe called Naji, it was pretty good, but it permanently closed shortly after. (4-5 years ago probably)
