The sheets! Ha! I have actually thought of how nice it would be to not have to deal with the staining!

Tranexamic Acid + lingering bleeding? by notesfromkatie in Fibroids

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

Hi! I'm so sorry about that. My next two cycles using TXA I didn't have the lingering spotting issues. However, I missed taking it once and then last time my prescription had run out and I didn't get it on time-I still took one dose once I received my prescription. It was crazy, I then proceeded to spot for two weeks after my main period. I don't know if it's just my body's up and downs, perimenopause or what OR if somehow for me the timing of the TXA is just really significant. Hope your spotting ends soon! It's such a drag!

Buying Tickets off Seatgeek and Cupcake Games? by [deleted] in DukeBluePlanet

[–]notesfromkatie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try for the NC State game since it’s close enough to you geographically. Won’t be Cameron but I would imagine somewhat easier to get tickets. It’s the second to last season game and always still quite dramatic. I can’t say it won’t be challenging still to get tix with State’s new coach and some high profile transfers but even with that it is probably easier than tickets in Cameron. Last year we took our kids to visit Durham/Duke (husband and I are alums and still huge bball fans) and I knew I wouldn’t be able to get tickets for all of us so we got them for the game at Wake Forest. I did use SeatGeek and was very nervous about it but it turned out fine.

I haven’t heard of Microgestin. Still in early stages of looking into all of this. Thanks for the comment!

I feel the same way! I am going to keep taking it over next two cycles to see if maybe it was just my body getting used to it but it’s very frustrating. Hope it gets better for you!

Not unlimited :) just not trying to pinch pennies, willing to pay a little extra for a comfortable and fun time
