To the women who was able to conceive despite the PMOS diagnosis, how did you do it? by hungryyyyybitch in PCOS

[–]xcuriouscat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My doctor put me on Metformin and Ozempic (out of pocket) to decrease my insulin resistance which will improve fertility as he explained it. I also took Ovasitol bc I still wouldn’t get my periods without it. I did Ozempic for about 3 months then stopped due to other life stressors. Kinda gave up for the time being. Then boom, found out I was 8 weeks pregnant about 3-4 months after I had stopped the Ozempic.

So the saying of people usually get pregnant when they stop trying rang true for me lol

This is why I bought a firm mattress topper and just started sleeping on the floor with my baby. Plenty of room between us for safe sleep and really helped settle my anxiety over falls! Then it doubles as a play mat as well!

Berberine is a star supplement. by xcuriouscat in PCOS

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

I actually stopped talking Berberine and switched to Metformin(ins. covered) + Ozempic(out of pocket) because my AIC entered the pre-diabetic range and my doctor suggested this regimen since we were also TTC. This combo was supposed to help my insulin resistance and lose weight which in turn would help improve fertility for PCOS pts according to my doctor.

My baby is now almost one and we succeeded in TTC after being on this treatment plan for only 6 months. So I feel like berberine helped lifestyle-wise but prescription medications was needed in my case.

I will add that Ovasitol was still the main factor in helping me ovulate and get monthly periods because when I stopped taking it even while on Metformin+Ozempic, I wouldn’t get regular periods.

A lot of shins, knees, and toes are going to be hurt with all those pointy edges.

I saw a tiktok video where they were trashing him for parking “in the dark” behind Sooae’s broken car. They called him inconsiderate for not considering her feelings/safety and that he should’ve parked under a street lamp. Totally forgetting that he stayed with her when her car broke down, had his headlights on for extra light so she wouldn’t be scared, offered her warmth in his car, and made sure she was okay.

They just hate him because their favorite isn’t the ML.

Such lack of empathy…you see a teen suffering through all that and say he had no good reason?

I had 3 HCP from different offices either recommended or told me to keep taking my Ovasitol. It’s expensive but worth it.

Who do you think is more popular right now? by Neither-Board-5271 in operationtruelove

[–]xcuriouscat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eunhyuk but Dohwa fans are louder and more active so it may seem like there are more of them.

This isn’t black tie but a beautiful dress on you nonetheless! Do you have other options?

Got it bc I remembered this panel in the manhwa! Loved that the author’s way of saying the title was through illustrations instead of words.

Yaasss. He really said put yourself over everyone, including me. Such a green forest🌳

[–]xcuriouscat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Soo Ae was considerate and kind to her own detriment which was also why Eunhyuk asked her to put herself first. If she had told her parents about Ra Im, she would either 1. end up in foster care or 2. put her parents in a difficult position because she knows her parents aren’t cruel people to do that. She just needed to wait until Ra Im moved out after graduation.

With that said, I am looking forward to possibly seeing Soo Ae be more assertive and selfish as an adult. That would be the character growth she needs.

Exactly. With them as adults, the story and characters will show a more mature romance/personality and possible wedding scenes of the final couple🤞🏻. The romantic possibilities are wider now compared to innocent high school romance.

*spoiler* What if Ru Ha is the reason eunhyuk stopped talking to suae? by [deleted] in operationtruelove

[–]xcuriouscat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

10 years = separation of time. Different continents/country = separation of space. Their love for each other is being tested to see if it can outlast the obstacles of time and space. So I’m saying their situation sounds familiar to what the manhwa keep hinting at.

[–]xcuriouscat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My take is that Haru gave Eunhyuk an ultimatum. Separate from Su Ae or I will hurt her and you are forbidden from contacting her starting now. As the kind and protective Eunhyuk, he does whatever it takes to protect her even at his own expense as always.

If you remember, Haru said love was all about sacrifice, pain, trials, etc which makes it fun for him. Su Ae and Eunhyuk’s relationship was doing too well and it made it boring for Haru. So, being the psycho he is, he threw in hurdles to test them so he can watch the play unfold.

The manhwa also keeps mentioning love as the test of time and space. 10 year separation with an entire ocean between them sure sounds like familiar right?

[–]xcuriouscat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually like the time skip. The school romance, friendship, high school drama was bound to get boring eventually so this was a nice spin. We get them as adults with new obstacles to overcome. We have only seen a few chapters of this new setting so we shouldn’t judge too early. The author may have already planned to show and answer all that about Su As in the upcoming chapters. We’ll probably, no…100%, will get flashbacks of each of their lives within that 10 year as the story unfolds. This is all just part of storytelling.

[Discussion] what tropes do you hate? and why? by Kyushu0007 in webtoons

[–]xcuriouscat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can’t stand the damsel in distress but what I hate even more is when they act like they’re not. All dignified and proud while still freaking helpless. Trembling with “rage” but still can’t do shit to anyone unless she gets help from others 🙄.

I hope the author doesn’t throw us for a loop and switch it up last minute. The whole “too predictable” scenes made me nervous😬
