It looks like I have hypothalamic amenorrhea due to excessive stress, exercise and dieting. My body finally responded to the hormone treatment and gave us some clues about what's going on. I finally got the monthly visitor, after a year of its absence. I have never been so pleased with my body, so proud of it. I am retarded ( Read more... )

Vin Diesel in... Fall 2007 Finance!!! xacat October 2 2007, 04:52:59 UTC

wrt ttc, that's great; i'm happy for you! i mean, amenorrhea is terrible, i'm not happy for that, but so, so much better than alternatives. that just means you need some hormone therapy and with a little time your body will basically heal, right?

Mmmmmm VIN DIESEL!!

Er, hehe, thank you! I am super happy, but kinda weirded out that getting my period causes so much joy. How whack is that?! It means that with some hormones to nudge my body it IS capable of functioning normally, so it is a HUGE relief. The doc I saw a month ago believed I had some physical blockage that might lead to lifelong infertillity, so I am so so so so glad he was wrong.

hey, you're the one who said "steamy" finance! ha!

i think that doctor's response would have totally murdered me with stress. i'm *so* glad things are working out.

hypothalamic amenorrhea? whatever it is, I'm glad your dr figured it out and hopefully can help fix it.

wish I were enjoying learning Japanese as much as you seem to be enjoying learning finance ^_^

I don't really know exactly what it means except that i stressed myself out to the point of getting hormonally out of whack! But I'm back now, baybee!

Aww man, Japanese is MUCH harder than Finance, I'm sure, AND I'm able to take breaks from it but you're swimmin' in Japanese World so I bet it gets frustrating not ever being able to break from it. I'm thinkni' about you, though, and still loving when you post reports on Lj...

I'm so glad to hear that it came back (I never thought I'd say those words..). :)

I'm glad you're enjoying your class and so very sorry to hear about Halo.. Call me if you want a break.. Hopefully I'll be turning in my two-week notice tomorrow and I'll be able to stop working overtime - at least at this job. :)

algol_galaxia October 2 2007, 17:28:47 UTC

I WILL call you! Maybe we can meet for a walk around the lake some Monday evening? Are you game for that? I love me some walkin' these days, and accompanied with girl-chat I bet it'd be even better.

I am SO excited for you and the new job!!!

shaynabelle October 2 2007, 17:31:27 UTC

Er, that was me, obviously.

Yay!! sheilagh October 3 2007, 00:45:27 UTC
