what's happening to our borad TMI

the cleft in the middle where the cheeks touch is gross to me all of a sudden?

Is this better?

I thought this was about actual dogs -_-

see, it's totally normal to have period sex, dogs do it all the time

It's true it can be extremely awkward when dogs want to sniff your crotch during your period. If anyone else is looking it's p much an advertisement with blinking lights around it: "**BLOOD HERE**"

Don't go camping and hiking during it either, especially if grizzlies are in the vicinity. I read this in the National Park lit.

is it true that when a woman is aroused her flow temporarily lets up, asking for a friend

I've read that, but then I've also been told by another woman that it's not the case for her personally? There's always the shower on these days:

oh great, a BEAR now were ALL in danger

I think sex makes it flow heavier but eases a lot cramping.

cramping's worse for me--seems individual.

@ogmor: I'm not sure if balls just ache mysteriously. I didn't read above: how long did they ache? Do they still ache? I had "pelvic pain" for years, with varying degrees of pain and sometimes including ball pain. Because of a condition I have, it was sort of presumed to be related to prostate inflammation, and I had some partial success with bph drugs, but when I finally got around to seeing a urologist, and when he learned of my condition, he promptly referred me to a rheumatologist, and this guy was like the most well-informed doctor I ever met (unfortunately he's retiring in about a year). He told me that it was probably an inflamed sciatica, and he told me about recent medical literature that connected this with my previous condition. If I had persistent ball or pelvic pain (and this was affecting my bowels, too), I would want to hunt the reason down. You don't even want to sit when you feel this. You get home and immediately take off your jeans and put on boxers.

Related: when I was getting headaches a lot, my doctor at the time basically said I dunno. The cause was really simple. They were stress and depression headaches. My doctor could've helped me out by saying, "Sometimes people get headaches from being stressed or depressed." I don't know why that'd be so hard to say.

Well, it seems like I have my first-ever UTI. And I don't have health insurance, so this should be fun!

suuuuuuuuuucks.

i'm prone to UTIs. otc cystex + cranberry pills help me a lot til i get abx. cystex esp--helps the pain.

abx are cheap, but you need an rx. ugh!

I think it must be a mild one bc I don't have any pain, just the feeling of having to pee constantly. There was also an annoying tingle/itch but I seem to have solved it by applying Burt's Bees peppermint oil chapstick. The two tingles seem to have cancelled each other out.

Oh and I've had 3 glasses of water since 9am which also may be helping.

I hate water.

i have heard that coconut oil can be very helpful for both UTIs and candida infections

(if v v mild, i can get by w/just cystex. if agony, 7 day Bactrim rx.

pills work (pain GONE) in 1-3 hrs if it's mild for me. otherwise, pills help, but i have milder pain for days)

xpxp might be hormones/irritation if no pain. annoying. i get feeling of having to pee constantly somtimes b4 period. or water!

This is a few months after my first-ever YEAST infection, which I tried to treat with an OTC but that stuff made me want to claw my crotch off, and when I read the fine, fine FINE print at the very end of the paperwork inside the box, it said, "Symptoms may increase after application" and I burst into tears and then applied ice directly. That brouhaha went away on its own in like 2 days.

Now this. I think this is actually from getting bar soap on places it shouldn't go? Because both maladies correspond with times that soap, hmm, got there. I really appreciate your advice, Julia! I'm sorry to hear this is a regular occurrance for you, I was miserable on the first bad day, and already cancelled my lunch plans so I wouldn't have to be away from home for 4 hours. :( (I am a giant baby.)

>I think this is actually from getting bar soap on places it shouldn't go?

yes, prob! irritation.

vag concerns SUCK.

They do! I've had 7-8 glasses of water today and stayed home to rest and pee every 20 mins and I feel almost completely normal now. THANK YOU for answering when I was slightly frantic this morning!

np! this stuff causes a lot of anxiety! glad yr almost better.

this once happened while the sufferer and i were in france; fortunately there seems to be a universal language of utis and french pharmacists don't fuck around

on the way home from work with my dog tonight, she stopped on the footpath to let loose a 2-foot puddle of milk-consistency diarrhea.

round are way we call it bum pee

Better there than in your bed.

I was thinking about this thread yesterday b/c based on my experiences, a testicle can just start aching without any identifiable problem. Happened again yesterday for a few hours. Last time for a couple weeks. Examinations and ultrasound found no problems at all. Was told to wear tighter underwear.

Pretty impressive modesty protocols in the ultrasound clinic - blanket peeled back and deftly tucked to reveal only the relevant part. Very civilized.

Was told to wear tighter underwear.

that's bullshit; they're just trying to rob us of little Je55es

TIGHTER underwear. Huh.

Hey, my feet ache. Maybe I should try tighter shoes.

Well they wanted me to be more supported, especially when running.

Nobody's getting any little Je55es regardless of my undergarments.

why must you rob humanity of your genes/awesomeness

The running part makes sense I guess, a foreign concept I didn't consider.

Same modesty experience the other day. Probably just a groin pull for me. Hoping it isn't a hernia if not worse.

The coke as spermicide/contraceptive thing is/was a common enough myth that actual studies have been done on it. Malta Goys (specifically hot iirc) is another one that has similar myths attached to it in some communities.

dame had gams up to her yam.

I bought a big piece of comté cheese. My boyfriend said the smell was odd.
ME: What does it smell like?
HIM: I don't want to say.
ME: Does it smell like pussy?
HIM: ...
HIM: Yes.

lol

please send cheese

can I tell you guys as someone with 1. no sense of smell and 2. apparently the stinkiest farts ever created, Devrom has made my life a million x easier
it is a pill that destinks your farts

why would i want that?

whoa, if they can do this with medicine, can they do the opposite too?

idk i feel like it helps me function in public without repulsing other human beings as much as normal

there's still a baseline repulsion level that can't be overcome
