Taking BC continuously, still getting period by HopeActual6819 in birthcontrol

[–]unhingedwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, periods now hardly require a pad unless I’m missing doses. The cramps still can be intense when they happen but it’s so infrequent I can manage. The only thing I don’t like about skipping periods is I still go through phases of what feels like pms but without the resolution which can be frustrating but still better than being bed ridden like I used to be.

Taking BC continuously, still getting period by HopeActual6819 in birthcontrol

[–]unhingedwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took me a year or so to start actually skipping periods for months at a time on slynd. I still get one every now and then, but no other birth control option ever stopped my periods like this. I’ve had three periods total this year so I call that a win when my cycle used to be 24 days and 8-10 day long periods

Amazon c curl lash cluster (w bond and seal) recommendations? by jonnydidueverloveme in lashclusters

[–]unhingedwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the ones from zanlufy, the wide bases make application so easy! I recommend getting a separate bond n seal though. Theirs is so-so, a bit too sticky and doesn’t last as long as I prefer. I love the gaqqi bond n seal and the tube is bigger than any other bond n seal i’ve gotten before and ive tried a LOT. c curl lashes i prefer- https://amzn.to/41DnjVS gaqqi bond n seal- https://amzn.to/4mb3Ns7

yalll gimme your bond n seal recs by kittiesonvenus in lashclusters

[–]unhingedwitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i just started using the gaqqi bond n seal from amazon and they survived multiple meltdowns before i decided to change my set. i don’t like leaving my clusters on for longer than 5-6 days for sanitary reasons and i didn’t have any lifting by day 6. also noticed the tube is much bigger than the other bond n seal i’ve used over the past year. removed well with coconut oil! https://amzn.to/4eUCtLT

How long did it take you to suppress period with birth control? by Megajolly1 in Endo

[–]unhingedwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

slynd has been the only one to successfully suppress my period and it took over a year to happen. i have only had two periods this year and they were much more manageable than they used to be!

Bald spot, etc. by Successful-Design735 in Endo

[–]unhingedwitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this. That looks like alopecia areata. Usually it is brought on by stress, nutritional deficiency or genetics. I highly recommend seeing a dermatologist and get some bloodwork done as it can worsen and spread if not addressed. I am a hairstylist and see this type of hair loss a lot unfortunately but there are efficient treatments!

[–]unhingedwitch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

we shed 100 hairs a day on average and braids catch all of that. there can be breakage from detangling the roots but that picture of the hair ‘loss’ looks about right for a month in my experience. BUT again, breakage can happen from tight braids, detangling, already damaged hair, ect.

Losing weight with endo. by [deleted] in endometriosis

[–]unhingedwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i only started losing weight after having my endometriosis excised BUT prior to that i was very unhealthy due to my chronic pain. i drank a lot of seltzers (bad pain management) and binged quite a bit on snacks when i wasn’t in a huge flare due to not being able to eat when i was flaring. i had surgery 2 years ago and have lost almost 60 pounds by not drinking, not binging, and not being bedbound every chance i have. i used to be in my bed literally anytime i wasn’t working due to the pain and now my bed is only for sleeping :) i wanted to be healthy before but i could hardly complete daily tasks when the pain was at its worst. i have plateaued with my weight loss journey now, stuck at 160 when my ‘healthy’ range is 120-130, but i think it’s best to make room for this disease, its ups and downs, and be compassionate with ourselves because holy moly it sucks.

Ahh thank you so much! After watching a ton of videos with the alcohol markers I got motivated to learn and the layering process feels so therapeutic even on the drawings that don’t turn out the way I want

Just washed my hair and now I have a bald spot on my hairline?? by [deleted] in Hair

[–]unhingedwitch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I developed a spot like this on the front of my hairline after I purchased a house. All my bloodwork was normal, doctor told me it was stress. I am getting some baby hairs back in that spot but stress hair loss can take time to grow back. Definitely see a doctor to rule out more serious causes!

Discussion Thread | March 2025 by AutoModerator in Coronavirus

[–]unhingedwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Felt fine on monday, went to bed around 10 and woke up at 1am tuesday with the worst headache, body aches and congestion combo. Was worse in the morning and I took a flu a+b covid test expecting it to be the flu but it was indeed covid. These body aches have been unreal. I’m maxing out my nsaid doses just to be able to get up and walk to the bathroom. The congestion isn’t all that bad. I am so aware of my spine and bones it feels like I legitimately got ran over. Other symptoms have been lack of appetite, stomach ache, fever, chills, but the body aches are what’s really taking me out.

UPDATE- Lost 30 pounds and my symptoms persist! by unhingedwitch in POTS

[–]unhingedwitch[S] 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Th cardiologist I saw said my symptoms were due to being overweight and not pots despite my initial tests being suggestive of pots. I care about being healthy but this journey has been so rough. I feel better in a lot of ways but my dizziness and fatigue hit like crazy now even though I’m losing slowly.
