    Mourning unfertilized eggs is like mourning every hair that falls off my head. If I were going bald and I don't like being bald... maybe?
    I also want to know... why do they make women's razors and have women shaving their legs in the commercials if women don't have hair on their legs?

      1. People's voices are different. I always thought they were either high or low.
      2. Soda pop makes noise.
      3. Thunder snaps. I could hear it and feel it but the initial pop was surprising.
      4. Trans-men's banana feet squeak when they run away (I found out whilst chasing a trans-man friend with a big hammer.. fun times.
      5. Popcorn pops during eh, popping lol? I should have seen that one coming.
      6. Sneakers actually do squeak at times.
      7. Fans (as in the kind one use to cool oneself off) make swooshing noises.
      There's more but I can't think of any right now.
      Cool things about my kind of "impairment".
      I can hear people's hearts beating in a quiet room. I used this, as a wee girl, to find my playmates during hide and seek.
      I don't suffer having to listen to most people when they talk. "Sorry can't hear you." and they'd walk away. Sometimes intolerance pays off.
      Cheers.

    In Healthcare, we were encouraged to start utilizing the word "vulva" to determine from "vagina" because it is medically accurate. Also, if there was a sexal assault patient, especially involving a potential court situation, using the medical definitive terms was important. It's hard to think about, but if a little girl says someone "touched their bottom" that could be misconstrued in court. Teaching the appropriate anatomical word could help a court/ lawyer be more clear in prosecution.

      One of my best friends is a social worker who specializes in child welfare. His wife is a psychologist. They've taught their two year old daughter the anatomically accurate words for different body parts, and "vulva" is one of her favorite words to say. She went through a phase of telling everyone that she has a vulva (much like the kid in Kindergarten Cop). Including the people at their place of worship. It's kind of hilarious. But as a social worker who specializes in intimate partner violence and gender-based violence myself, I also know how important it really is to make sure that she has the language and understanding and comfort speaking with her parents about this as she grows up.

    The thing you say about life expectancy in the past is also a misconception. Sure people's lives were shorter to some extent, due to medicine not being as advanced and whatnot, but people didn't all die at 30-40. This idea stems from the fact that the numbers people have in mind are an AVERAGE life expectancy, and INFANT mortality was quite high before modern medicine, which pulled the average down. And I'm not saying infants don't matter, of course, just that it's inaccurate to imagine that people had never seen someone over 60. Once you were past that infant mortality bump, people generally aged normally. I mean you could get unlucky with disease or a violent death, but not to the point that nobody ever made it to old age.
    You can just google random famous people throughout the ages and see for instance that Ramses II died aged 90, Charlemagne died at 72, Da Vinci at 67, Queen victoria at 81, Edison at 82, etc... or look through classic portraiture and see old people being represented.

      I'm so sorry to hear this. I've been on contraceptives / hormone treatments since my teens too, to manage hideous, unpredictable periods, weird pre-menstrual symptoms (including my immune system tanking) etc. To be honest, the progesterone injectible has been a total life-line for me, especially as I've since learned how much oestrogen affects my panoply of chronic conditions. I've been on it for about 25 years now, and am approaching menopause. But there is ZERO information out there for how to manage my hormones coming into menopause - all the "patient information" is around birth control (pretty irrelevant for a single lesbian!). There has been so little research into the specifics of hormone changes over a life-time without reference to fertility, just as there's too little research into male / sperm infertility. I'm hopeful that trans and NB folks accessing hormone therapy can teach us all more about the subtleties of our hormone panels.

It’s caused by my severe cPTSD and overall anxiety and when people tell me that I’m lucky it makes me so mad, just because I don’t suffer monthly doesn’t mean I don’t suffer as much as any other person who has periods. I have a six year old and an eight year old, the fact that there are some days where I cannot move and my wife has to take care of the kids on her own is so unfair, now that she’s pregnant (yay IVF) I can’t make her do that, and I have to take care of the kids while experiencing excruciating amounts of pain that no pain meds help.

    Honestly, I'd love for that (male) author to write representation for those women who don't feel any different on their periods.
    While I'm not one who feels just the same I am grateful that it's very manageable and fine most of the time for me.
    In short, I'm for representation of all types of periods!

    I have a LOT of chronic pain conditions, including endo and more generalised pelvic pain, I’ve had ovarian cysts which have ruptured and get extremely painful period and ovulation pain. A lot of the time it radiates along my sides and back as well. I have thrown up, passed out and all from the pain that I have. Having chronic pain in my pelvis (which is present 24/7 not just when I’m on my period) means that my entire pelvis/lower back area is hyperalgesic (meaning the nerves are more sensitive to any type of pain or pressure). Even pressing on my abdomen/pelvis for an ultrasound or wearing tight clothes around my waist like exercise pants can cause me excruciating worse pain for days or weeks. I also have an IUD which I had to be sedated for to have it placed because just one or two uterine contractions WITHOUT a baby in there, were so painful that I passed out on the exam table at the first one. Even after the IUD was placed under sedation, the uterine spasms (similar to braxon hicks in a pregnancy) were causing me to throw up, faint despite having heavy opioid medications on board (morphine) etc.
    I’m not sure if I ever want kids - I have a number of health issues including my chronic pain and fatigue, mental health and am Autistic with ADHD and Sensory processing disorder so I can barely look after myself most days and I think a tiny human crying and always needing me is an idea which is very overwhelming to me. Not even including financially. But there’s a few reasons in the plus column too.
    The one thing that absolutely scares me to death is pregnancy/labour - I would absolutely never want to experience the pain of an actual contraction with my pain barely controlled as is and none of the medications I take (opioid and otherwise) to deal with my pain are ‘pregnancy’ safe, the same with my antidepressants. The drugs that are similar that are safe for use during pregnancy are ones I’ve already tried and that have failed so I’d be basically needing to stop all my medications for the entire pregnancy and longer if breastfeeding too - which just feels impossible because I can barely wash my hair and get out of bed as is WITH all my medications working effectively as is. Not to mention I work for myself so all my income is based on me still being able to work through a pregnancy (or possibly relying on a partner’s salary - which just seems unfairly stressful for them). Even with an epidural they are not always effective and don’t completely eliminate all the pain most of the time. They also have a very specific window (as in can’t be given too early or too late and only last a few hours not the entire labour). I am absolutely terrified that my chronic pain is just going to be completely unmanageable especially considering I already have a lot of lower back, neck/shoulder and abdo/pelvic pain - which are all things that get worse with pregnancy.
    I think my best option would be to have a scheduled c-section so a lot lower risk of experiencing any contractions but the local block medications they use for that don’t work well on me so I think realistically I’d probably have to be sedated for the whole procedure instead. The problem with that is that they’re literally cutting a huge opening in my pelvic area exactly where I have the worse nerve pain and hyperalgesia so the recovery from that would be brutal and would likely cause me to have worse, more permanent chronic pain in that area for the rest of my life.
    Pregnancy and parenthood are absolutely not for everyone and with the world getting more expensive and more dangerous for minority groups - I can definitely see that side of things. I think it’s ridiculously important to consider that a child isn’t just for 18 years but for (conceivably) the rest of your life and that you’re committing to raising a whole entire human, and that is a huge thing to do. And while I do love the concept of having a child, I honestly don’t know if that’s a commitment that I would have the resources to do right.

    Ok, but…
    It’s generally not that people are living to older ages now than before. It’s because children’s mortality was so high that it skewed the numbers. So, people did live longer than 60, it’s just if you have 100 people and 30 of them died before the age of 5, that will lower the average life expectancy verses 100 people and 5 of them died before the age of 5.

    also to add on the period subject, different people experience different periods, we mostly hear about those who experience worse symptoms, but they do exist people who experience barely any symptoms and most of their periods are painless, those do exist. So yeah they do exist people with periods that are cheerful and completely fine during that time.

  • @emilyglass6625

    Just adding my random data point re: writing periods. At different times in my life, my experience has been different (and not because there was any clear explanation or change of because I was in, like, my Jurassic Period Era versus my Pre-Cambrian Period Era or whatever. I have never heard that periods proceed through any kind of broadly predictable life stages - until peri-menopause, maybe). For a while I got cramps that were bad enough to be physically debilitating but at least predictable. Then I got a decade+ reprieve where there was often no pain and almost never bad pain, but it was a little harder to predict. Now that I’m getting older, it’s a complete roll of the dice.
    For the longest time, I believed I did not get PMS because everything I knew about it basically came from sitcoms where female characters became abruptly, ferociously angry. I was in my thirties when I finally realized that I often experience a “dark night of the soul” about the same time of the month. I definitely have a real melancholic streak and PMS is not to blame for my personality, but nobody ever told me that I might feel sad or just really discouraged, rather than angry. Now I wonder how many more variations there are re: how other people experience hormonal fluctuations. Getting past the dismissive stereotypes and asking honest questions can open the door for people to finally understand themselves better. ❤

    Not just Endometriosis, but Adenomyosis as well, which is something I have. I think it gets talked about less than endometriosis. For anyone reading who hasn't heard of Adenomyosis before, or who maybe has heard the word but doesn't really know what it is, I'll explain. Whereas in endometriosis, parts of the endometrium (the lining of the uterus) make its way out of the uterus and deposit usually somewhere in the abdominal/pelvic cavity and attach as lesions on the outside of internal organs (and in really bad cases can make its way elsewhere too)... In Adenomyosis that same material (bits of the endometrium) breaks through into the myometrium (the muscle wall of the uterus). Inside of that muscle wall it deposits in a similar way, creating pockets around the lesions. In both Endo and Adeno, the lesions act the same way as the endometrium that is still within the uterus - that is, they will thicken, swell, break down, and bleed, and in Adeno those pockets within the muscle cause a lot of pressure. Adenomyosis can cause quite a bulky uterus which becomes heavier. Adeno causes bad pain, heavy bleeding, and significant clotting, which often hurts more to pass as the cervix stretches.

    About the "God's timing" thing when it comes to fertility issues. You can (technically) say that BUT ONLY if the person you are saying it to is highly religious and believes similarly. Otherwise you're just going to come across as pushing your believes and downplaying their struggle. Which is not what you want to do if this is a friend you're trying to be supportive/comforting.

    I didn't realise until my mid 20s that I even had endometerosis. I thought that that amount of pain and bl00d was what a period was meant to be like, etc. Changing underwear 3 or 4 times a night and having to sleep on a towel to stop leaking on the bed, leaks at school or work and the pain so bad that I could barely wall due to referred back pain. Also, my stomach bloated so big that 1 of my bosses thought I was sticking it out on purpose. And I was like, nope, this massive pot belly is period bloat.
    I finally saw a Gyno who was very versed in this and straight away on symptoms alone knew what I had. He referred me to his surgeon friend (as he himself was almost retiring age and didn't do surgery anymore) and I had a lap. But not just day surgery like most. I was in for over 2 days. My uterus was actually attached to my bowel wall. It was so bad that the surgeon was gobsmacked. He asked how I even coped with the pain this likely caused. I again said, "I just thought that as you get bad cramps and can have very heavy flows, that it was just *my* period."
    I was in a lot of pain for over several weeks post op and couldn't wear even granny knickers until 2 weeks had passed.
    Luckily though, this meant my little sister of over 5 years younger, be booked in for a laparoscopy asap. She also had it but not as bad of course.
    Thankfully, our surgeon excises the endo and doesn't laser. So no scarring or further issues from that day. On top, he increased our fertility to "normal levels" as well. So we could have squishes if we desired to.
    I'm 40 now and on a certain "pill" for various reasons. But I still don't enjoy my period and do feel quite crappy around that time. And the PMS. Ugh.

    ... Female fertility does drop between 35 to the 55, but not one moment to the other and it starting to drop does not mean it is a bit less likely, not impossoble to concieve until further along.
    Also we got way more eggs then ever could ripen over the course of a life time, but since carrying out is extreamly taxing and you need to be around for more of a decad after to raise the kid, it makes sense that there is a "limited window"

    Two things, life expectancy data from the past is skewed by high infant and child mortality. Also as an older Mum, (first child at 34 and second at 40), whilst I personally didn't have issues with fertility, I did experience higher risks of complication during pregnancy and birth, particularly with my first pregnancy where I developed pre-eclampsia and haemorrhage. I also opted for additional screening for genetic conditions as there is a greater likelihood associated with maternal age.

    What got me about the "cis women don't have leg hair unless they also have a hormone imbalance" is that, much like with one's chromosomes, I bet the number of people walking around with atypical hormone levels who don't know it is much higher than the number of people with atypical hormones who do know it. Individual bodies have so many ways to be different from one another while also being functional enough to get through everyday life. I have leg hair and plenty of it. Maybe my hormones are completely chaotic, maybe they're the exact average, smack dab in the middle of the general population. I don't know bc I've never happened to have a doctor test that for me AND NEITHER HAS THE PERSON WHO MADE THAT POST ORIGINALLY.
