TROPHY CASE

Does anyone have experience with Loestrin birth control? I need some fair reviews. by BobSaggotin TwoXChromosomes

[–]elayyou 0 points1 point ago

I'm on Lo Lo, as well. I'm almost done with my fourth month and have no weight or mood issues, but have gotten a lot of shitty headaches (got nasty migraines on Nuvaring). I have noticed a decrease in sex drive when I'm alone, meaning that my many-times-a-day thinking of sex is minimized, but that's about it.

What day do you start bleeding? My body doesn't quite know how to handle having only 2 days of 0 added hormones.

So ladies, how do you solve this little problem after sex? by BlueSwedeShoesin TwoXChromosomes

Oh dear! I can't even imagine :((((

I've never gotten a UTI either, but I often need to pee after sex anyway.

I feel super lucky not having ever developed a UTI (hope I didn't jinx it), considering how many times I see 2X mention getting them.

Hah, I giggled out loud reading this due to being able to relate. My boyf's room is downstairs, and the bathroom is upstairs, so I often cup my hand underneath and waddle up the stairs so I don't leak on the stair rugs (is there a name for that? A little rug on each step?).

Nuvaring headaches by MyCatLooksLikeYoursin TwoXChromosomes

[–]elayyou 1 point2 points ago

Migraines, probably, more-so than headaches. I got them on Nuvaring, too. They were so severe for me, as well, that I often threw up. It didn't matter what day of my cycle it was, it would happen any day, any time, and being out in the sun? Migraine!

It took me almost a year to find a doctor that figured out it was the ring. It stopped immediately when I stopped the ring. I'm on Lo Loestrin, it's new, and a very low dose. However, I've gotten a lot of painful headaches (very few were full-on migraines, maybe one or two?).

Anyway, for me, it's the combined hormones. You can try progestin-only pills. They didn't give me any head pain, but they did cause me to bleed biweekly. Speak with your gyno! Good luck!

Wine tasting meet-up? Yes, plz.

Does anyone else love having showers with their Significant Other? by Rae_Starrin TwoXChromosomes

[–]elayyou 1 point2 points ago

Ohhhhhh, I didn't even think to check BBB! I get coupons in the mail but never have anything to use it on. I did just buy the shower head I linked off amazon. Whoops!

IAE overly sensitive to very specific forms of touch? by c4boom13in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]elayyou 0 points1 point ago

Ohhh I hated those times where the stub was more irritating than the tag before it was cut. Place a bandaid over it?

IAE overly sensitive to very specific forms of touch? by c4boom13in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]elayyou 0 points1 point ago

I used to have my mom cut the tags off most of my shirts because it would bug me so much. A lot of shirts now have the brand/size printed right into the fabric, which is nice, or at least use a much softer material as the tag. Sometimes I still cut the tags off if they bug me enough but that's pretty rare now.

As for a touch that I'm sensitive to in a positive way, the underside/hairless part of my arms. I fucking love light touches on it. And of course, it's not even close to being the same feeling if I try doing it myself.

"Mary Jane" Slippers (and my cat) by elayyouin crochet

Mine is named Allister. Do you call him Barna for short? When did you start him on the harness? It's probably too late for my cat, since I've already had him for 9 years.

Carolina Chocolate Drops - Trouble In Your Mind [Bluegrass, Folk] by peterpimmsin listentothis

[–]elayyou 1 point2 points ago

I loved it! I need to find a place near me that has folk/bluegrass bands play frequently. This is one of the reasons I miss Seattle; plenty of places to see bands like this every week.

Yes, it's true. I took way too many photos in order to get one where he wasn't blurry from him rolling around and running up on me.

Orange tabbies are my favorite!

He let me know he approved of my slippers by rubbing on them for a while. I had to wait until he stopped so I could take a photo!

I didn't even consider making these as gifts! Too late now for this holiday season for me.

Is yours a male, too? Male orange tabbies are fantastic. I wish I could take him places with me.

My gf works on a research camp in Ethiopia. Just a few of her better pictures. by [deleted]in pics

[–]elayyou 1 point2 points ago

Can you tell me more about this research and how to go about looking into it further?

Does one have to be currently enrolled in a university? Studying animals / wildlife conservation is my desired field but I'm finding it incredibly hard to come across paid positions that don't require PhDs

The Gracie Grace Giraffe that I made for my daughter this Christmas...thought I'd share. :) by gingertigerin crafts

That's adorable. I always wanted a large stuffed animal giraffe when I was younger.

I tried three different patterns. This one here worked best for me.

If you have any questions to clarify any of the instructions, don't hesitate to ask!

How do you deal with by Cunnilingussin TwoXChromosomes

[–]elayyou 0 points1 point ago

I had the Angries an hour or so ago. I filled up the bath, lit some candles, put a few drops of lavender oil in the bath water, got in, then played words with friends for a while. It helped.

However, I'm definitely not looking forward to all these emotions again tomorrow..

I've been working in a lab for a while now; this is how my opinions on certain things have changed over the years [ragecomic] by Bender1012in biology

[–]elayyou 1 point2 points ago

I was definitely spoiled by my high school photo class/lab though I didn't know it at the time.

I'm not sure if the darkroom is even still there. While I was a senior, there were talks about getting rid of it because of funding and the photo teacher wanted to try out teaching a cosmetics class (she was strange... But it helped make the photo class what it was).
