email from my gp today saying btw these test results from october suggest you could have pcos. no need to do anything good luck do you have any questions
um
what the fuck, what do i do, how the fuck do i handle this
#i have some of the symptoms but they're stuff like acne and weight gain and whatever#i literally had an ultrasound last week and the results for that were normal#but apparently my hormones are weird? and i have super irregular periods#and my gp was like well you could go on contraceptives if you're worried about the irregular periods#thanks but no? i don't need to make my periods more regular#i'm actually fine with not having as many periods they suck#so long as i have enough to not get cancer but that's just 3+ in a year and you're fine#like i'm not worried about acne and irregular periods and being a bit hairy#i'm worried about am i gonna get type 2 diabetes and does this mean i'm never going to be able to lose weight and what the fuck do i do#with this random new information!!!#she didn't even suggest any further tests to actually confirm it#so like#i may or may not have pcos#fucking hell#esme.txt#health anxiety tw#weight mention tw#uhhh#menstruation tw#oh yeah all the info is like “women with pcos experience this” so funnnn dysphoria times

Rarely I ever ventpost on tumblr but when I do it’s because the chronic pain induced insomnia is getting to me and I’m ready to morb about how it’s so bad sometimes that it takes me 4 fuckin hours to get out of the house
#also I’m just kindof upset because it’s like. ok. i’ve suspected for a couple years now that the shit that has been going on has been endo#or perhaps pcos that has gotten out of hand. and like. I’ve been dealing with this shit for 7 years and nobody’s done a damn thing about it#and it’s frustrating because like. I know I’m not making it up. I have back aches all the time. the flare ups are consistent and there is a#pattern to them that doesn’t match anything else that docs have suspected. the pain is real and the insomnia from it is so fucking#debilitating. but like I was just looking at an old ultrasound I got a year ago and they said like ‘everything normal’ and I’m like??? what#and I have another appointment with a new gyno place that doesn’t have a terrible reputation for not doing a damn thing with their patients#but that’s not until june… and I’m really at my wits end NOW#and it’s like nobody listens. nobody cares. meanwhile this shit made me contemplate suicide 5 years ago#and I’m scared that I’m just doomed to this suffering forever#… starting to think it may have been a mistake to stop my antidepressants lmao#even though they gave me a lot of issues too#oh yeah and my old therapist bailed on me today and I’m upset about that too because I was really looking forward to seeing her. she’s#extremely helpful when I see her but lmao this week just told me to go fuck myself I guess#and like no wonder I’m deeply reaquainting with lotr again that shit got me through high school

not to jinx it but i think my reproductive system might finally be deciding to function on its own and i’m so excited lmfao
#rambles.#cw periods#i think it tried last year when i stopped the pill for a bit but i didn’t give it long enough#i didn’t know it could take a while. because literally none of this has ever been normal for me lol#i have absolutely no baseline to go off of#but i think i may have somewhat successfully reversed my pcos or w/e by losing weight and changing my diet#i just didn’t know earlier because i stayed on the pill#it’s still too early to tell for sure tho. i don’t wanna get excited over nothing#BUT I’M JUST REALLY HOPING THAT THIS IS A NORMAL PERIOD!!!!#because these pills and hormones and shit are driving me crazy lowkey#i have to go get a temporary heart monitor tomorrow and also go to an allergist/ENT because i’ve been having so many issues#anyways. fingers crossed i might eventually get to be a normal menstruating woman 🤞🏻

I had someone on Reddit get mad at me for saying that I'm trying to get pregnant while also medically transitioning because "what if you accidentally make the baby intersex?"
And like... 🤣🤣🤣 I'm intersex and I don't see the problem. It's super unlikely but like... Who cares? Of all the concerns to have revolving around the idea of my high risk ass getting pregnant again. 🤣🤣🤣
#tldr yes I'm serious#obviously I would stop the moment I find out I'm pregnant and I don't think that fee weeks would hurt#like would it be more serious than my medication or health issues? lol no. people can do whatever they want with their bodies#ftm breeding#ftm breeding kink#fr though PCOS and hyperandrogenism are really common in my family so any daughter I have may have them anyway#i don't see the problem

Umm not a great sign when your radiologist pokes your overy and goes, "huh"
Ma'am, please I like my surprises post procedure. She was so stoic until she saw them too
#looking like we got PCOS boys#i may not be a professional but i think anyone could see the shit wrong with my organs#Organ update: uterus still intact unfortunately#i love how cheerily they say your results will be in soon as if they didn't just have a wand in my guts

its like so fucked to me that PCOS is almost always diagnosed in middle aged women bc of fertility issues unless the person in question has a very obvious and severe case or lobbies their doctor at length about it. this would not be so upsetting to me if PCOS didn't massively increase your risk of developing type 2 diabetes in a way that is largely preventable! or if PCOS didn't make it damn near impossible to lose weight, meaning many people have their symptoms dismissed be it for other health problems or PCOS symptoms themselves over something they have next to no control over.
#like its not just infertility insulin resistance fucking sucks#and it can definitely make periods hellishly painful in addition to being irregular#in severe cases (including mine) you can also develop menopausal symptoms or those of early pregnancy#like morning sickness hot flashes constant hunger#dont even get me started on PCOS in trans patients#ive found one. ONE case study on a trans man's PCOS treatment#and instead of answering any of the questions i had the seminar talked abt whether he was put on T too early the entire time#literally did not address the PCOS part a single time#studies are also almost always done on middle aged women bc they're the ones with a diagnosis#meaning if you're a teenager like me the results may not apply to you the same#that's if a study exists at all most of the drugs used for PCOS are for diabetics or menopausal women#and maybe one study of like 40 people exists on how it works for PCOS patients#usually geared towards ensuring regular periods and not what i care about (improved blood panels)#god its just. it fucking sucks having what is treated as like Ugly Fat Woman Disease with the way the medical field is!!#ESPECIALLY as a trans man

Credit to @bunnakit for my new life motto:
Thrive out of spite!
#fuck this shit#so done with life at the moment#life is always getting in the way of important shit#like watching my fave BL shows and having minecraft LAN parties#I may also have depression anxiety and AuDHD#but of course that has nothing to do with this#the IBS PCOS and sleep apnea are irrelevant as well

Alright besties. Let’s play a fun game called Why Is Lauryn’s Hair Falling Out?
#like in clumps#nonstop#is it a) PCOS/Metformin#b) Because I bleached it a month ago#c) Stress because life do be like that#I may have to shave it off again#because it’s EVERYWHERE#my floor is covered#my clothes are covered#my bedding is covered#my furniture is covered#it’s bad

#aaaaand I think we’ve tipped over into ‘if you touch me I will cry’ territory#I suspect there may be a period incoming#all of my ovulation tests are so so negative#and I’ve been off birth control for just over 2 weeks#so this all theoretically makes sense?#having endo and pcos just severely complicates things#also welcome to Oversharing Hours™️
