"Seriously, I thought I was sitting on a sanguinous Ol' Faithful! Linda Blair had NOTHING on this. *giggle*"

Right now, i have a really bad cramp. I thought i'd share that. :o). Anywayz, for all you girls who think u might get it. My first time wasn't at all embarrassing or like scary. When i got home, i went to the bathroom. I saw like a little circle about 2 inches of a brownish spot. I knew it was my period coz i had been expecting it. Anyhow, when my mom came home, i kept trying to find the right time to tell her, but when i did, she was cool about it. Afterall, everyone(woman :) gets it! So the day after, i happened to have gym that day, so i just asked my mom to write a note to excuse me. So everything has been fine since! Have a nice day, and good luck!

I always wanted to share my menstrual "celebration" story, since no one I know had a similar experience I got my first period the day after Christmas, when I was 13. I immediately told my mom, who is a nurse and had always been very open about menstruation. She was very excited and hugged me, showed me where the "stuff" was and that was it. Or so I thought. I spent most of the morning in my room, calling my friends, and my mom called me downstairs. She had made me a beautiful white cake to celebrate. Then, she took me shopping and we both bought "girl stuff." Bras, panties, makeup and nightgowns. I think this experience had a lot to with my health, attitude about menstruation and sexuality, and is a tradition I will continue with my own daughter.

Much heavier bleeding, clotted flow, long duration, and more frequent
periods, are symptoms of Hypothyroidism. My periods were like this for
almost a year (after the birth of my 2nd child), until I was diagnosed with
hypo. Once I got on the right dosage of Levoxyl, my pds. went back to
normal, & I no longer have any problems with the "monthlies".

However, as you might also have other "hormone" related issues (with the
breast discharge), excess prolactin may also be interfering with your
periods, as opposed to your thyroid hormone levels. If your discharge is
related to high prolactin levels, this can block estrogen production, which
causes menstrual/ovulation disturbances.

Anyway, considering the nature of your discharge, I think it's very
important that you are seeing some one about it. Your Gyno.(?) should be
able to determine why you have the discharge through testing, or may refer
you to a breast specialist. Make sure you receive a complete breast exam; a
mammogram may also be a good idea. Wishing you a good diagnosis...

My boyfriend was going down on me a few months ago, when all of a sudden I realized it was *that* time. You should have seen the look he gave me when he pulled out - it was like thick & zesty Ragu sauce dripping down his chin! But he *loved* it! Since that time he's always waited till I'm "red 'n' ready" to give me some.

Well, Let me get more specific.
I am refering to the yellow stuff, but now the past week it has been tinged
with blood too, just lightly. It's like the faucet never completely stuffs
off inbetween periods, except for maybe a day or two. I am thinking that it
may be a combination of perimeno and an infection. Occasionally I will get
an even heavier yellow discharge and an ungodly itch. If I use that 3 day
monostat stuff, it takes care of it for awhile, although I still have more
than I used to.
I was so regular and so "normal" for years, now I never know what is coming
next; I feel like I have someone else's body here. . If it's yours and you
want it back, something might be able to be arrranged!!!!!!! LOL

What's this brown gunk that I have to look forward to?????

o

m.

Do periods make women so blase about stuff coming out of their nethers that they can drip ectoplasm and not be fazed?

xpost yes and no, Dan.

xpost

and secondly, my cervix (which i have been checking 2-3 times daily for the past 3 months) seems to always be "open" the same amount. is that "normal"?

thanks :)

I don't want to be one of those hysterical
hypochondriac women who insists that they have
cancer in my uterus, ovaries and fallopian tubes,
but this reoccuring ache and tiny sharp stabs of
pain are telling me something, and I can't speak
their language!

I keep thinking that my current doctor just
throws some antibiotics at it without even
looking inside, and he'll be really sorry if
it turns out to be something bad. Even worse
if it turns out to be something that could have
been fixed if he had identified it sooner.

These 2 weeks of antibiotic induced sickness
may have been keeping us from solving this
problem in my uterus. Why does my doctor
have uterus-avoidance?

Here is something I found out last time I saw him -
when he hesitated testing me for an infection
(he cited the cost, then he mentioned that
I'd have to get undressed again for him to
take a culture. And the problem is...?).

He never saw my ultrasound results.

For those of you who haven't read this far
back in Babyfruit, you missed the exciting
adventure of having a plastic ding dong stuck
up my ying yang to view my inner workings,
and how the (female) technician left it
sticking out of me and left the room to
check something. It was an intensely
disempowering moment.

Men in the house, just think if a doctor stuck
something up a body cavity that you loathe
to have explored and then left the room with
the object still ensconced. Now you feel my pain,
don't you?

Anyway, at the time, my doctor's nurse told
me to stay at the hospital and wait for my
doctor to show up to talk about the ultrasound
results with me.

As I sat in the waiting room, eavesdropping on the
grumblings of my uterus and ovaries, an attendant
told me I had a call. It was my doctor's nurse
telling me that Dr. B had reviewed my ultrasound
film and rushed back to the office so I had to
hurry back over there (the women's clinic nearby)
to speak with him.

So I hobbled across the parking lot (I was in
pain back them versus ghost ache) and met with
my doctor who said my uterus seemed empty.

Flash forward to about 2 weeks later when I saw Dr. B
again and had to wrestle him to culture me for
infection. He had mentioned how my ultrasound
showed that my uterus had been clear earlier.

"Did you actually SEE my ultrasound results?"
I asked, trying not to have an accusatory tone
in my voice.

"No," he said matter-of-factly.

I wanted to scream "but your nurse said you had!
She lied to me! You all lie to me! Doesn't anyone
around here care about my uterus besides me???!"

But instead, I just made a mental note and
murmured, "Interesting..."

I'm calling for the name and number of the
reproductive specialist in Colorado. I'm scheduling
an appointment. I can't avoid this the same way
I avoid filling out forms or balancing my checkbook.

This is my last ditch effort at regaining my female
health. This is war.

Now I'm certain that either it is all in my head
or my female reproductive organs are giving
up the ghost - but not the ghost pain.

Cooking and eating menopausal women !!!

I think it's a good way to reduce the population. We just have to
butcher and eat all the menopausal women, because they're not useful
for society anymore.

Although their meat is too old for any prime cuts, their flesh can be
put into a meat grinder and turned to minced meat and especially the
fat ones are good for making sausages.

So, my menopausal piggies, it's time to go to your local butcher shop
and donate your body to the society. We're hungry for you !

The itching is probably due to dryness, and you can use topical products to
ease it. Some use OTC things like (I think it's called Silk) and I once
used olive oil, which is a bitch to get in but worked for me. (My problem
was short-lived, though.)

If the discharge is not quite blood, what does it look like? Brown gunk?
Or semi-clear/whitish fluid? The brown gunk is just the uterus cleaning
itself. I call that 'brown flowers' and it's defined as what comes into
your panties uninvited.

Perhaps others with the vaginal itching problem will be along to tell you
what they used/did. In the mean time, welcome.

I have something on my mind and I'm wondering where the Blog Sisters stand on the issue. I have been, for my past 4 or 5 menstrual cycles, using washable, rather than disposable products to collect the flow. I first became curious about washable menstrual pads through the many ads for them in 2 of my favorite magazines, Bitch and BUST. For years, I did nothing but wonder, who out there would have the time, to say nothing of the desire, to wash out blood-soaked rags throughout their cycle. Especially those women with heavy flow. We're talking washing out pads maybe 4 or 5 times a day, over the course of 3 to 7 days. Aren't disposable tampons and pads a revolution in themselves, liberating so many women from the endless drudgery of scrubbing that our foremothers endured? Isn't that the definition of "better living through chemistry?"

Then I started reading. I was alarmed, and then increasingly horrified to realize something that should have been obvious: that the dioxins and other chemical agents used to bleach paper products, substances that I know are harmful to the environment, are the same toxic chemicals used to bleach tampons and disposable pads that I would regularly wear close to the most delicate area of my body during my period. Further reading turned up evidence of links between tampon use and diseases such as endometriosis. The more I read, the more I thought, I need to get over my squeamishness and my wanting to avoid extra time with my handwashing. In addition, I thought about the sheer volume of menstrual trash that would be eliminated by my ceasing to use tampons and throwaway pads. For that reason alone, I thought, I should at least give washable menstrual pads a try.

Now that I've done it for several months, I know I'll never go back to my disposable ways. They're comfortable, they don't have that nasty plastic liner to deal with in your panties, they're safe and - the big bonus - they're incredibly cute! You can go to Lunapads, the Rag Hag, or Urban Armor to see for yourself. My question is, do any of the Blog Sisters use these products, and how do you like them? I have brought up my newfound love of them to a few friends, progressive ladies all, and the responses have been mostly mild curiousity. I currently don't know anyone personally who also washes their pads (unless they just haven't told me yet!). I do have some links to purveyors of the pads displayed quietly on my blog under the heading "good for the planet."

I'd be interested to hear your responses. Also, if this topic has been raised in a previous discussion, then please point me in the direction of the archives and I'll read there happily.

This is my first time here, and I'm honored to be a new Sister. Thanks.

I have recently discovered that I have what appear to be crabs in my pubic hair. They are itchy and annoying and appear to be laying eggs. How do I get rid of them?

Thanks!

My mother treated herself to a face lift for her 60th birthday. Now at
89 she looks terrific, but I have little doubt that she would have
looked terrific anyway. She's just got great skin. My 'proof' is my
sister who is 66, has not had a face lift, and looks wonderful. When
she and I meet someone for the first time they always ask which one of
us is older -- and I am 9 years younger! :-( It has been that way
since I was in my 20s and she in her 30s. It's just the luck of the
draw. I've got whiter teeth and better legs.

I have never had a problem accepting my skin. I like my lines, as I
believe I have earned them as much as my gray hairs. I think I look
just fine and my partner particularly loves my face in the morning.
The morning? Gawd! Can you imagine that?! How lucky I am, but I
have no doubt it has to do with the confidence I project.

Wouldn't it be nice to get off this youth kick and down to the business
of living a wonderful, long life.

CHUCK MAD!!!

I didn't want to gross out my family. No. No. Not the man I've been intimate for 15 years. Not the children for whom I've changed about a million mortifyingly stinky diapers.

I had SRS with the intestine extension many years ago. From time to
time I get a smelly brown discharge from my vagina. This time it is
really severe.

Does anyone know the cause of this and what I can do about it?

Thanks,

Jennifer
