feminine w0es poll

[pocky_slash]

So, this is a poll for my own personal edification. I had another day of almost passing out from pain, and I am giving the pill I am currently on a BIG thumbs down.

Anyway, girls only. Sorry guys Chris.

Anyway, I need to finish the story I'm working on and then finish reading the recent itsproductivity entries. And watch Project Runway. I go back and forth

jusy to clarify something, cause I have shitty times with my period. I have had it stop sometimes. Currently I'm on a pill that regulates my progesterone hormone but it's not THE pill. Meh... I'm currently waiting for my period. Should start this weekend. I am so not excited. Hate being a girl.

- the ring, currently -- it didn't do much to change the nature of my shark week either way
- I answered relatively manageable, because it was closest to the truth. (I still drag ass to school or work.) But occasionally I have a bad month and I throw up, and I do take large amounts of ibuprofen under a doctor's orders. I would probably be on a prescription painkiller if I didn't refuse to take them.

My period changes gradually and then drastically as I get older. I've been through several phases where there is heavier or lighter bleeding, heavier or lighter cramps, migraines as warning or no pain at all.

I've never been on a contraceptive (for a variety of reasons), though I've noticed my period does change with sexual activity.

Didn't answer your poll, but here's my clarification: I'm on the pill for the sole reason of allowing me to get out of bed every week of the month. It's been miraculous for me, so much so that I skip the placebo pills and continue straight on to the next pack. Hope things get better for you soon.

I occasionally (once a year, maybe) have fairly mild cramps that I need to take painkillers for.

I HAVE INCREDIBLE GUILT ABOUT THIS, KAIT, WHY ARE YOU BRINGING IT UP AND MAKING ME FEEL BAD FOR NOT SUFFERING LIKE A REAL WOMAN?
