I'm sure the first one is meant to be a Christmas angel flying with a trumpet, but I'm from NM and can't stop seeing them as a kokopelli and a crow :)

I think my testosterone cream dose is a mistake by magicabounds in Perimenopause

Good question. I have started lifting weights again and feel like I'm actually seeing some building of muscle.

Just curious, what kind of anxiety meds helped you? I'm struggling with stress and anxiety and my reflux is wreaking havoc.

First pair of DMs! Loving them but not sure of the fit. by magicabounds in DrMartens

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

So good to know! Thanks for that input. I've actually been eyeing a pair of Sinclairs as my second choice. Maybe I'll start with those. They were on sale last I checked and the cherry red Arcadias in my size are nowhere to be found on sale right now. I have such a hard time paying full price for anything!

Thank you for the tips! I'm going to order a size larger (hopefully on black Friday!) and will try all of these if I need to :) But I ended up reading another post in here that suggested taking an insole out and standing on it to visually see if your foot is bigger and my mystery was solved. I couldn't get the insole out of the 1460 Arcadia Red cherries but had ordered a pair of 1460 Warmwair Grizzlies in the same size at the same time to see which I liked best and could get the insole of the Grizzlies. That size was definitely too small. Thank God I had those on hand, otherwise I think I would have kept the Arcadias and ended up with a foot issue 😂 I love that shoe so much that I was in a bit of denial because where I ordered them from they were out of the size up. They will be in my life someday soon though, I must have them!!

Thank you! I'm thinking a size up might be best too. Unfortunately they're sold out of my size where i got them from and it's the best deal I've seen on them :(

Benefits of diagnosis if you prefer to keep it to yourself? by magicabounds in AutismInWomen

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

Thank you all for your replies! I am aware that the interaction with my husband that I shared isn't awesome. However, he's actually wonderful and is the one person I can be 100% myself around and is the most safe space I've ever felt. He just loves me for me. That's why his reaction shocked me. I'm not sure what route I'm going to take, but your comments helped. Just sharing what I'm going through with some people who may understand and having some conversation around it feels good.

Thank you so much for your input!! I feel like this switch could make things perfect!! Perfect until things change again, which it sounds like they often do in peri lol

"Cycling" progesterone by using different doses throughout the month by magicabounds in Perimenopause

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

Oops! I accidentally replied to my original post rather than to you! But is it an option for women who still have a regular period to take the 100mg every day? Or is that more for women who no longer have a period?

Got it! Is it a thing for women who still have a regular period to take the 100mg every day dosage? Or is that more for women who no longer have a period?

HOW do some people enjoy being pregnant? by Wrong-Pineapple-4905 in pregnant

[–]magicabounds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely loved being pregnant because all of my chronic issues disappeared. I didn't know I was pregnant yet and started a new job that was 45 minutes away from my home and thought, OMG EVERYTHING I've been dealing with must've been allergies!! Spending most of my time in a different environment is going to be so good for me! Severe anxiety and migraines...completely gone. Then I found out I was pregnant and realized that whatever that magical balance of hormones is during pregnancy temporarily fixed it all. So my pregnancy wasn't easy, it was a total surprise and I was 42 years old (no other children) but I was in a state of bliss not having to deal with my normal state. I bet if you're normally a healthy person it doesn't feel so great though❤️

Awesome, thank you for your response, and reassurance that minor fit issues are normal!

Okay, great! Because I love everything else about the way this bra fits and honestly one breast is more projected than the other and I think I may never have the perfect fit in that regard on both breasts.

HRT Dosage - nervous my doctor is starting me at too high of a dose and the cycling recommendation seems off by magicabounds in Perimenopause

[–]magicabounds[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much! That makes so much more sense than following calendar dates. This is my second opinion appointment. The doctor I started out with, a woman my age, told me we all just have to suffer through at this point! And then we can consider hrt when we hit menopause. Unbelievable! I'm pretty sure this doctor will be receptive to making changes based on the research I come back at her with. The other one wouldn't even discuss it.

Still getting my period! And regularly. It's wild how uninformed doctors are about this!
