MorriganAzure 🧙🏻‍♀️🔮🪄<p>😂 I love mine!!<br>(<a href="https://turtleisland.social/tags/Awas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Awas</span></a>= go away, begone, etc in <a href="https://turtleisland.social/tags/Cree" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cree</span></a>. One of the maybe 4 words I know lol.)<br><a href="https://turtleisland.social/tags/iud" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>iud</span></a> <a href="https://turtleisland.social/tags/mirena" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mirena</span></a> <a href="https://turtleisland.social/tags/birthcontrol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birthcontrol</span></a></p>
Moss<p>The doctor didn't explain things as well as I wish she did, which is to say she didn't really talk about any side effects of <a href="https://meow.social/tags/Mirena" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mirena</span></a>, give me options for <a href="https://meow.social/tags/IUD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IUD</span></a>, or provide information about the IUD I got.</p><p>I also got misgendered a lot, it was so awful 😔 </p><p>I didn't get any sort of pads to prepare for the bleeding, and ruined my underwear.</p><p>I can't reiterate enough that this appointment was for a surgical consult, and I feel so weird about everything that happened.</p>
Chozari 賈 (she/her)<p>There’s new advice for those who use the <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Mirena" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mirena</span></a> IUD. About 2wks ago the advice changed to the Mirena being effective for 6yrs - not 5. I’ve still had mine replaced today, but you should know that you can wait til the 6yr mark. (My source is a FPNSW doctor.)</p>
Anna<p>Wrote this when less <a href="https://aus.social/tags/PEM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PEM</span></a> crashed, but could be a typo/ comprehension minefield:</p><p>Does anyone know if <a href="https://aus.social/tags/CBD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CBD</span></a> oil interferes with <a href="https://aus.social/tags/oestrogen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>oestrogen</span></a>? In general but specifically the <a href="https://aus.social/tags/OCP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OCP</span></a> (oral contraceptive pill).</p><p>Would I be better off consuming the whole plant? Perhaps oil from the whole plant? Has anyone had personal experience?</p><p>There is some good evidence that <a href="https://aus.social/tags/cannabis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cannabis</span></a> can stop <a href="https://aus.social/tags/endometriosis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>endometriosis</span></a> from growing outside the uterus altogether, so I’m looking at this as a form of <a href="https://aus.social/tags/pain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pain</span></a> relief as well as a treatment and preventative. I don’t know which form and dose is best though.</p><p>The only other treatment for endometriosis is more hormones (which make me sick) and surgery, after which it grows back. Can’t find a doctor specialising in alternative treatments. They all just want to give you a <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Mirena" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mirena</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/IUD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IUD</span></a> (without anaesthetic!) and surgery after surgery. Sometimes <a href="https://aus.social/tags/hysterectomy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hysterectomy</span></a> if bad enough. <br> <br>There’s also been some studies about CBD oil and <a href="https://aus.social/tags/LongCovid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LongCovid</span></a>. Something about switching on the <a href="https://aus.social/tags/cannabinoid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cannabinoid</span></a> system.</p><p>Disclaimer: Yes of course I would get a <a href="https://aus.social/tags/medical" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>medical</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/marijuana" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>marijuana</span></a> license and buy it legally on prescription.<br>*cough*</p>
harrismint<p>Surely I can't be the first to think this, but every time I see it I think of this...</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/IUD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IUD</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/Mirena" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mirena</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/DontCallMeShirley" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DontCallMeShirley</span></a></p>
Amelia 🖤<p>I hear a lot of worry about the <a href="https://todon.nl/tags/mirena" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mirena</span></a> <a href="https://todon.nl/tags/coil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>coil</span></a> so just want to share that I've gotten on perfectly with it and have just had my second one put in. Some pain every 5 years is worth the positives for me. Also it's a good excuse to bosh as much codeine as I want for an evening.</p>
