#i have menopause

[meirimerens]

youtube shorts is just tiktok without being on the app the amount of "i'm a [qualification] and [misinformation]" could make one turn their skin inside-out in protest. "i'm a board-certified OB-GYN & it's only been about the last hundred years that women have actually experienced menopause. We didn't live long enough to experience it" how can you be so incredibly wrong about something so integral to your practice. King of the Hittites Hattusilis III was told in 1250 BCE that his sister was too old to reproduce at age 50+. Aristotle wrote in the 4th century BCE that women stopped menstruating between ages 40 to 50, common menopause ages today still. i cannot begin to tell you how 4th century & 1250 BCE don't really count as "the last hundred years" unless that -s is doing a lot of heavy lifting. waiter waiter more misinformation laws.

They synced their periods together too well. Now they are synced through their perimenopause years.

The bit about the menopause in Never Stop Blowing Up was superfunny but I don't want the youth to think it was just a joke because it's funny to speak like this about menstruation and menopause. If you happen to be next to menopausic women after you are 30, they will tell you about it and yes, it may involve a way heavier flow than before for a couple of years.

Quite literally, the nurse assisting a gynecologist I had an appointment with told me that she spent two years having to have a change of pants in her workplace (the hospital) because she bleeded so much. Sometimes she even fainted.

And since I'm at it, other things that apparently happen, as told to me by menopausic women are: temperature dysregulation (the famous hot flashes), your boobs get bigger, your vagina lubricate much less, difficulty regulating the mood swings (if you get angry, you get superangry superfast and it's hard to calm down).

Looking forward to hear jokes about this too.

more cisgender women should be looking at cisgender boys' puberty as a menopause preview, honestly. i find that cis men treat menopause with more pause, ironically, because they recognise the emotional/physical rollercoaster - gee, your body is suddenly sweating absolute buckets and smelling way outside of your control? you feel gross, you keep growing patchy hairs in new itchy places, and summers have suddenly become unbearable? woof, been there done that, let's get you an ice pack and some gatorade buddy, i mean mom

until menopause hits them, cis women (among others) can sometimes treat male puberty as a gross horror that they are forced to mitigate the consequences of - ugh, men with their hair and their smelliness that they can't keep sanitised, it's a concession to live with them, it's a chore to share space with them. you know it's not just a Boy Hormone, right? this exact same testosterone will jump you in a dark alley 30 years from now, you can accept it before then or keep treating it like an enemy latched onto those around you

Happy disability pride month to ppl who have disorders/disabilities that are mostly annoying to deal with. It doesn't mean you're "faking it", or that it isn't a "real disability". This month is still for you

love having a body that's a medical anomaly. had my first post-op today and the nurse just went ಠ_ಠ for the entirety of the call.

unfortunately, the amount and complexity of the work that was done to my insides was, to quote her, "unbelievable. that was the most intense operation i've been a part of in over a decade", so i got smacked with a continued recovery period of 12 weeks. "a normal hysterectomy would have been 6 to 8, but in your case, we'll be seeing you in february".

:(

i can slowly start doing some stuff again, but exerting myself by working out or going on long walks or doing certain chores and lifting stuff is a no-go until then.

Idk why it's so funny for me to picture other Reds looking back and forth between the Toy Soldier and Old Rosie and being like "Umm. That is NOT one of us, halfling or not. Look at him! He has a mustache!" and Old Rosie being like "Menopause will do that to a gal. Now go fetch me a pint and do fifty pushups. I don't care that you're fresh out of the test tube, you can't go disrespecting her like that." but it's fucking hilarious.

why are we still dealing with the incredible scam of 'you can't get a refill without an appointment first' for medications once you've been on it for over a year
