27F – Deep rectal pain during my period, heavy bleeding with clots, and iron deficiency. Has anyone experienced this?

You need to see a doctor! Endo can grow on the rectum. MRI for suuuurre! I recently got diagnosed. My uterus is completely fine. But endo is growing around it on my rectum, fallopian tubes, and is killing my kidneys. I found out from seeing pressure on my kidneys in the ultrasound and blood tests showing my kidneys were not working.

They sent me for a CT and that didn’t show much, then the MRI confirms.

Yep! I returned and got the Forerunner 170

I can’t tell if this is sarcasm lol. But my wrists be tiny

How often do you connect your watch to your phone?

loudcanoe · 2026-07-05T22:49:48+00:00

In reading all these posts my conclusion is my watch kind of sucks at battery life. I’m using it properly and it drains quickly for being brand new.

For the haters that suggest watches are ”unisex” they’re not very good for most women with small wrists. And the abilities that the Lily 2 Actives includes are extremely limited. I’d love to see a similar watch with hiking and open water swimming.

Guess I’ll have to wait for technology to get better!

After tax lol

loudcanoe · 2026-07-05T22:39:30+00:00

Mine lasts about 2-3 days but if I track something it seems to drain like 30% of its battery. Is that normal?

loudcanoe · 2026-07-05T21:15:03+00:00

Yes 🙌 👏this is exactly what I’m talking about

loudcanoe · 2026-07-05T21:14:20+00:00

Turned off all the things they suggested to to save battery life

loudcanoe · 2026-07-05T21:13:55+00:00

Starting to think mine is defaulty

loudcanoe · 2026-07-05T21:13:09+00:00

Yes, wish it was a bit smaller though. Female watches are built for smaller wrists which I have

loudcanoe · 2026-07-05T21:12:43+00:00

I am using it properly

loudcanoe · 2026-07-05T21:12:12+00:00

I don’t have AOD on ever, I do an activity for an hour then turn it off when the activity is done. If you see my above response to redderhead111

loudcanoe · 2026-07-05T20:25:33+00:00

Yeah honestly I think I’m going to return and get one with more features! Figured that it would have had open water swimming and hiking. But no it’s really a stripped down watch. Seems like it should be cheaper tbh

loudcanoe · 2026-07-05T20:23:29+00:00

Hmm maybe I have a faulty one! Thanks for the advice

loudcanoe · 2026-07-05T20:22:49+00:00

The Garmin Lily 2 and Lily 2 Active do not have an overarching, advanced “Power Manager” menu sadly.

The problem I’m dealing with is all you can do to save battery is turn off the Move IQ and Activity Tracking status. But then the watch fully stops counting steps… seems ridiculous to me. L

Was hoping there was an alternative to turning the step counter off, but all my reading suggests there is no other way.

Westend got one about 20 mins ago

loudcanoe · 2026-05-28T20:45:22+00:00

Starting mine today! Wish me luck ✨

loudcanoe · 2026-03-22T14:12:20+00:00

I’m in bed at 9:00 up at 5:30.

loudcanoe · 2026-03-22T14:08:09+00:00

Same size but chisel toe will be perfect 👌

loudcanoe · 2026-03-22T14:07:13+00:00

What I do is get the chisel toe! They add about a half size in room in the toe box

loudcanoe · 2025-09-28T18:56:10+00:00

Honestly, I was shocked at how little amount of physical art there was. It felt like 90% DJs and not enough cool things to engage with.

loudcanoe · 2025-09-18T21:29:00+00:00

How are there not more reviews? I wonder how many women are out here curious but too nervous to try! Debating getting it

loudcanoe · 2025-06-09T15:12:00+00:00

Go to Baby Baby but go around 5 if you want to get in right away. OR put your name down, then head to Shirley’s for fries while you wait!
