Live updates about the things my reproductive system puts me through. Only funny by accident. Sometimes gross. Queer. TERFs fuck off. she/they
Officially confirmed it's unlikely I have pcos this week. No signs of it in my blood. Onto the more invasive endo tests!

My super power is going from sound asleep to fighting back vomit in the bathroom downstairs in less than 30 seconds.

I guess we've reached the gassy portion of the period. The noises my gut is making are going to wake the neighbours

In my time as an adult I have managed to largely get the PMS mood swings under control, or at least not turn them onto others. But this morning I got so impatient I almost snapped at my SO saying good morning.

Sometimes the PMS consumes your whole week and you're on tenterhooks waiting for first blood.
Other times, you wake up in the morning, slkghlty stickier than usual and think ah. already?

Thinking of just using this as my period tracker, since the app I used to use has been enshittified. Day 6 rn

The late-period he adache is a killer. I'm not doubled over with cramps, gushing blood, so I want to get up and do something. But noooo

An amazing break through. As someone who had #endometriosis I am blown away by this article and the science

‘A medical miracle’: is period blood ‘the most overlooked opportunity’ in women’s health?
Period blood has long been thought of as ‘stinky and useless’, but startups are exploring using the fluid to test for a wide range of health conditions – including difficult-to-diagnose endometriosis

Haha. Found out I have PMDD and endometriosis and a “grossly real” cyst on my left ovary. This week is going to be a wash because I don’t feel good and what I thought was normal discomfort is actually considered excruciating pain. and I’m sleepy. 😅

Not to be icky and graphic on main, but I’m so glad my old gyno came back to St. Louis, because she took me seriously with this endometriosis, and I feel like I’m dying right now. I feel like I’m either going to puke or pass out from this.

Yes, "pregnant people" is inclusive language that describes pregnant cis women AS WELL AS trans men and nonbinary people, a lot of whom can get pregnant. But it also describes, like, 12-year-old girls who get pregnant. Do centrist pig-dogs think THEY are "women" too? Coz...bit of a red flag, that.

On Friday I was on my way to see friends when I had to bail out of the bus because I thought I was going to puke from cramps. Called a taxi to get home and had to bail out of that because I nearly shit my pants. These are both new symptoms.

Today I spent so long on the toilet that my legs went numb

I used to do this on the other site and I figured why not do it again here
