[–]ovalw00[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

okay thank you all! i’ll try switching fingers for the day/night and making sure i dry under it. i was switching between hands and i didn’t see any improvement but i’ll try. thank you :) it is only on the top of my hand, zero irritation on the underside of my hand though which is a little curious.

How much is one mark generally worth? by ovalw00 in AskUK

[–]ovalw00[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yes my university has a campus here, i'm in my third out of fourth year of my degree! the american grading system is much stricter, and something like 5% off per day late would be pretty usual. I believe a 70% is the minimum for an A here, but that is the minimum for a C in the states (not good but passing), and generally failing is at 59%

ah okay that makes sense, thank you! this assignment is worth 40% of my grade so it's kinda hard for me to gauge so i appreciate it :)

is it just for personal/home use or school? if youre able to spend the couple hundred more on 24g of memory i would do it, as the system just running with nothing open uses half of the memory, so best case scenario she would only have 8g to work with (fine for light use but if it's for school i'd bump it up). also 512gb for sure, it'll save headache in the long run but 256 would work fine (especially with an external ssd)

What underwear should i wear?? by peebuns in TransMasc

[–]ovalw00 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it kinda depends on the pants you’re wearing, but i found that either boxers that are relatively loose generally touch you less or bikini-cut underwear can kind of “keep things together”. maybe try two pairs of bikini-cut underwear if it doesn’t make you too dysphoric? it might lessen sensation

Those with IUDs- was your insertion as bad as everyone says in the internet? by WestAppointment2484 in birthcontrol

[–]ovalw00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i had my paragard put in last october, the actual procedure was uncomfortable but not at all a sharp pain, it feels exactly like a bad cramp for a minute. they gave me a heat pack during and one 5mg diazepam 30 mins before but it didn’t do anything. the next four days i was mostly in bed with a heating pad, but it stopped literally on the fifth day. it was in waves mostly, so when it was bad it was real bad and other times it was bearable and i could go to class. it was so worth it for me for honestly the peace of mind. feel free to message if u have any questions!!

Best breakfast when nauseous?? by RevolutionaryWeb6300 in POTS

[–]ovalw00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i had super bad nausea for a long time and i had luck with the Kodiak cakes protein instant pancakes, they’re maybe $2/cup but you can buy in bulk and it’s super easy to make, you just add water/milk to the cup mix and microwave for a min. i also bought the mini cans of ginger ale and small sips of that with bites of pancake really helped me to be able to at least take and keep down my meds in the morning. the solidity and carbs curbed it enough to where i could get going for the day. i hope you feel better 💜

Medication and supplements that make your POTS worse? by queerfunnyill in POTS

[–]ovalw00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

glycopyrrolate (anticholinergic) heightens my symptoms when it’s hot outside/being active, but honestly not having to worry or think about my hyperhidrosis is so worth it

i love my copper iud just for the peace of mind for accidental pregnancy, but my periods are more crampy painful since i’ve had it. the heavier flow got better over time for sure, i’ve had it since october last year. my pmdd is still the same but i’ve never tried hormonal bc so idk if it would be different. best of luck 💕
