When Should I See a Fertility Specialist?
Struggling to conceive can be an emotionally and physically taxing journey for many couples. Understanding when to seek help is crucial to managing and overcoming fertility issues. If you find yourself in this situation, consulting a fertility specialist may be a significant step forward. Here is a guide on when you should consider seeing a fertility expert, and how to find the best options available, especially in a bustling city like Delhi.
Recognizing the Right Time to Seek Help
Age Factors:
Women Under 35: If you have been trying to conceive for over a year without success, it might be time to see a specialist.
Women Over 35: It is advisable to seek help after six months of trying, as fertility naturally declines with age.
Irregular Menstrual Cycles:
Consistently irregular or absent menstrual cycles can indicate ovulation issues, a common cause of infertility.
Medical Conditions:
Conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, or thyroid problems can affect fertility. Early consultation with a specialist can help manage these conditions effectively.
Male Factor Infertility:
If there are known issues with sperm count, motility, or morphology, seeking specialist advice is crucial. Male infertility contributes to about 40-50% of all infertility cases.
Recurrent Miscarriages:
Experiencing multiple miscarriages is a strong indicator that you should consult with a fertility specialist to identify any underlying issues.
Finding the Best IVF Doctor in Delhi
Delhi, being a major medical hub, offers numerous options for fertility treatments. However, choosing the right specialist and clinic is paramount for a successful outcome.

Start by researching the best IVF doctors in Delhi. Look for doctors with high success rates, good patient reviews, and those who are known for their expertise and compassionate care.

Too Young to Die- Part 1
Masterlist
Part 1 of 3 part Mini Series
Pairing |Â Massage Therapist Joel Miller x F!Reader with Autoimmune disease, no outbreak, AU (I changed up his timeline a bit).
Summary | You were referred to Dr. Joel Miller, a massage specialist, to help manage your joint and muscle pain with autoimmune disease. What you didnât know was that Joel was an insanely attractive man, and that youâd be coming undone underneath him before your first appointment was even over with.Â
Series Warnings | 18+, Minors DNI, Smut!
Age gap (heâs 47, sheâs 29), language, Smut (with a capital S, watch out!!), daddy reference, f!(fingering), squirting, female reader has autoimmune disease, Joel is a massage therapist, slight reference of medical stuff, reader verbalizes anxiety with treatment, fluffy Joel, soft Joel, sexy Joel, terms of endearment, Joel asks her out on a date at the end.
A/N:Â This one is completely self-indulgent and has been sitting in my draft folder since before Christmas. I have autoimmune disease, and treatment hasnât worked much for me in many areas, so I know some of the troubles and struggles that the reader here has. Not everyone who has autoimmune disease may experience these symptoms, concerns, or struggles. This will be only a three part mini series. Very smutty with story building throughout. Enjoy!Â
Word Count: Â 9.1K (weâre establishing a story here)
Fuck you were wrecked, seconds away from crashing through, or into, a brick wall with an orgasm, you thought. This felt different though, so much different than what youâve ever experienced before. âJoel, fuck, pressure, itâs a lot of pressure and Iâm, fuck, Iâm, Iâm-â âCome fâme sweetheart. Come on baby, fucking soak my fingers.â
Joel Miller sat in his office of his massage studio, looking over the referral paperwork that Dr. Samson, an autoimmune specialist, had sent him. A female patient was being referred to him for treatment of musculoskeletal pain and tenderness.
âPatient has reoccurring musculoskeletal tremors of unknown origin that come and go. Bilateral joint swelling seen in all extremities with positive inflammation noted in laboratory test results and X-rays. Arthritis and arthralgia positive in all joints. According to the patient, anti-inflammatory and arthritis medication only works slightly for pain. Recommended gentle massage therapy to see if joint lubrication and increased joint mobility is plausible, and if pain and muscle tremors will cease. Immediate referral requested.â
When Joel glanced at the bottom of the form a week ago, he had seen that the referral had come in three weeks prior. Now today, four weeks after the initial referral, he was finally able to see you for the first time. When he had inquired with his secretary as to why it took so long before he saw you, she had said that there was a problem with your private healthcare insurance. Delaying treatment was never something that Joel Miller prided himself on. In fact, he was usually the opposite with trying to get his patients in for their first appointment within a week following their referral. Joel, having been a contractor in his previous life before becoming a massage therapist, knew the difficulties with treating joint and muscle pain. The goal was to never delay treatment as it would lead to widespread body inflammation. And once inflammation fully set into muscles and joints, it was harder for someone to find relief of their discomfort.Â
You were Joelâs next scheduled patient to arrive in 20 minutes. As he waited for your arrival, he went back over your X-rays, lab test results, and dictation notes from your autoimmune specialist. He had already reviewed it previously, but now he was refreshing himself on your in-depth history as he took some last minute notes of things that he wanted to ask you for this particular session. He had booked your first appointment with him to be about 2 hours, instead of the usual hour. Joel always conducted very detailed exams with his patients. He was also very knowledgeable in understanding autoimmune patients, especially knowing that each person was unique. He wanted to tailor a program that was going to help you specifically.
Joel Miller wasnât just your average run of the mill massage therapist, he had a specialty license in massage. He specialized in patients with pain, joint stiffness and swelling, inflammation, autoimmune disease, injuries, etc. People usually only came to him by doctor referral, which usually meant two things. First, he prided himself on taking his time to get to know his patients and how he could help ease their suffering and pain. And second, he typically charged more money for his services. Most massage therapists would charge people a fee based on how long they performed their massage, Joel charged by the session. The maximum time he would give a client with his hands was 1 hour, but heâd pencil in 1.5 hours of time with them just in case they felt pain. Sometimes heâd have to stop and let patients breathe and relax for a minute before he started massaging their muscles again. Joel had a lot of training and education in the technique that was required, and many patients walked away from him stating that they felt a lot better. By glancing at your history he didnât think that youâd be a one time only patient. He thinks that you would benefit from regular massages with him to help treat your inflammation and pain.
âMr. Miller, your 10 AM appointment is here,â his secretary, Ashley, said.
âThanks Ashley, Iâll be out in a minute. Please take her back to Room 5, and Iâll be along in a minute.â He replied, still studying the notes from your doctor and making notes for himself of the things that he wanted to focus on with you for your first appointment.Â
When you had arrived at the address for your first massage, you felt a sickly feeling in your stomach.�� Your doctor had reassured you that Mr. Miller would be the person to help you feel better. But just like all the other promises that your primary care provider gave you, and how none of them worked the way that you hoped, you were very skeptical at this new treatment option. Nothing helped you feel better, and you were beyond frustrated. It took you a bit to convince yourself this morning to come here, telling yourself that Dr. Miller was an expert at this, and that you should give him a try. What could hurt, you thought. Worst case scenario, it didn't do anything, which sadly was the norm for you these days.Â
For the last several years, your body had been poked and prodded more times than you would care to admit. Each time there was a promise of a better understanding or discovery of why this was all happening. But with each test, came more conflicting and confusing results, and you were exhausted from it all. You have been giving more blood for the sake of medical testing than what youâd think was truly normal. As ridiculous as it sounded, you felt that if Dracula was actually a real being, that he would be impressed with the amount of blood that you've donated for the sake of medical science.
With shaky hands, you got out of your car, locked it, and then entered the facility. When you entered you noticed that the space was calm. There was pale muted colors that covered the walls, colors that often helped people relax. But it did nothing for your nerves. You were shaking and not wanting to do any of this anymore. You felt like you had a huge lump in your throat, and that you couldn't fully swallow. Of all the things that you had to be afraid of in this world, you were the most afraid of medical treatment. Yet, that was the one thing that you were blessed with in having to always do. âThanks body for betraying me with autoimmune,â you thought.
As you walked up to the registration window, you found the secretary typing away on her keyboard while looking at her computer screen. You tried to settle your nerves before opening your mouth, but you felt like you were drowning in a pool of despair. Anxiety was getting the better of you again, and you felt like you wanted to run away and hide from everything. But where could you go when autoimmune always seemed to follow you, especially with the pain that came along with it.
âUm, excuse me,â you said meekly, after standing at the window for a brief moment.Â
The secretary continued to type away, not looking at you nor acknowledging your presence. You went to clear your voice again when she abruptly stopped and said, âwhat can I do for you hun?â
âI- uh, I have an appointment, with um, with Dr. Miller I think,â you said softly.
âOh, hun it's just Mr. Miller, or Joel for short. He doesn't like being called Doctor. He always says he has a doctorate degree in massage, not in medicine. Yet they're kinda the same thing if you ask me.â The secretary said, shaking her head with a slight laugh. You stood there in silence, looking at her as she continued to ramble on. You were trying to listen to what she was saying, but all you could feel was your heart racing in your chest at the prospect of once again meeting a new person with the promise of helping you.
After listening to the woman who you thought was named Ashley ramble on for 15 minutes, as that was the name that you noticed on her name tag, you were finally sitting down in the general waiting area. You were slowly trying to calm down and relax while staring outside and watching the birds hunt for bugs in the grass. You didn't know how long you were waiting there, just staring outside, before you heard Ashley call your name again to take you back to Room 5. You didnât know what to expect when you entered the room, but what you saw shocked you.
The room was softly lit, with soft music playing in the background, music that you liked. You also heard running waterfalls, sounds that came from the little fountains scattered all around the room. There was also a hint of cinnamon and slight vanilla aroma in the air, your favorite scents that would usually calm you. You tried racking your brain as to how, by chance, these scents and sounds were present when Ashley said, âit was on your intake survey. Your favorite classical music, scents, and sounds. Joel's very thorough, focusing on relaxation as much as muscle and joint relief.â
You stood there shocked. You thought those questions were just asked of people to try to ease the tension of how you were going to let a stranger put their hands on you. You had no idea that your answers would actually be taken seriously. Usually doctors, when theyâve asked those questions, never really did anything with the answers. Well, Dr. Miller was definitely different. It was at this moment that you were grateful that someone actually listened to you. You just hoped that he would continue with the same dedication while speaking with you, and not ignore what you said like everyone else seemed to do. You were frustrated with the medical field. Youâd tell them something hurt, or something was happening and they only looked at your lab tests and X-rays and made decisions based on that, never actually listening to what you were truly telling them. You had only been in the room for maybe 5 minutes when you heard a gentle knock on the door, and the entrance of who you only could have suggested was Dr. Miller.
âGood day, I'm Dr. Miller but you can call me Joel.â He said while holding out his hand for you to shake. You shook his hand, and as you did, you felt how rough his hands were. They were calloused and strong, very sturdy hands. Not something that you'd expect to see from a massage therapist. This intrigued you, as you've always loved a man with rough hands.Â
After you introduced yourself, Joel walked over to the small desk in the room and sat down on the rolling stool. A typical doctor stool that youâve seen countless times in exam rooms. He grabbed a piece of paper and then sat there for a moment writing a few notes, things that you thought were probably dealing with your medical file. After a moment he finally looked up at you and then asked with a slight Southern drawl, âHow are yâfeeling today?â
âI- Iâm okâ you said meekly as you slowly looked over Joel. Joel was a gorgeous man, clearly in his later 40s with chocolate brown curly hair. He had a mustache and a slight beard by his jaw, one that had a slight sprinkling of gray in it. He also had glasses on his face with gentle eyes behind the glasses, ones that you could easily get lost in. He was wearing a simple white t-shirt, framing his broad shoulders perfectly. He had a slight tan on his arms, and hands that once again you couldn't wait to touch you. By looking at him, you didnât think that massage was the only thing that Joel has done in his life. Something told you that he had spent many years doing hard work with his hands. As you continued your exploration, you then noticed that he was wearing a nice pair of black pants that hugged his hips perfectly. As you continued, you saw that Dr. Miller was definitely someone who was a decent sized man in the bedroom, seeing the soft bulge in his pants as he sat down with his legs slightly spread on the stool by the desk. You couldnât help yourself but you stared at his package, wondering what itâd look like outside of the confines of his pants, and what it would feel like fully aroused inside of you. The longer you stared, the more you felt heat rise up the back of your neck. When you noticed the awkward moment of him looking at you, clearly having asked you a question that you didn't hear, you shook your head slightly, looking down fully at the floor while saying âsorryâ out loud.
âIt's ok darlin',â he said, giving you a small little smirk at the fact that he caught you checking him out. You were hoping that he didnât see what you were checking out the longest though. You didnât want to explain to your massage therapist that you were fantasizing about his package, and what types of moans or grunts heâd make while fucking your brains out.Â
Joel continued to talk to you, explaining why you were here, and how his services could help you. You were only half listening to him, embarrassed about how you had behaved previously. Joel was devilishly handsome, the type of guy that you were into. You were, however, internally scolding yourself at the importance of having proper social etiquette, and not eye fucking your massage therapist, which is what you were doing every time you looked at him.
As Joel continued to talk with you, he slowly moved around the room, grabbing different things off from the shelves. He instantly noticed your meek and shy attitude, even though he had caught you checking him out earlier. He had to admit, you were very cute, but Joel was a professional. He couldnât allow himself the joys of thinking about you in a different sort of way. Nevermind, that if he wasnât your massage therapist, he would definitely want to explore those other possibilities with you. What he did notice though was how you turned inward at the mentions of pain, autoimmune disease, and how your doctor said you didnât have much abilities to do activities that your peers could do. You were 29, and he knew what the world did to 29 year olds who didnât, or couldnât, do the same things that their peers could. The world would ignore you. Joel, himself, remembered those days when he was 29 and worked construction when Sarah and Ellie, his daughters, were younger. All his friends went out partying after work, when he went home and raised a 10 year old and a 2 year old all on his own, Sarah and Ellieâs mom were already out of the picture. Joel was lost in his own head, remembering those earlier days, when all of a sudden he heard you speak up in an irritated tone.
âMr. Miller, no disrespect, but I donât think you understand what itâs like to not be able to do things that most 29 year olds can do.â You didnât think he understood. So once again you found yourself trying to explain to a medical professional how much autoimmune has negatively impacted your life at such a young age, and how agitated you were at the fact that no one seemed to help you or listen to you. Joel, being the attentive man that he was, sat across from you on the stool and listened to every word that you had said.
Once you were finished, Joel took a deep inhale, then followed by a long exhale and then said âI am so sorry that people havenât listened to you, or have taken you seriously about your concerns with your body. Youâre right, I donât know what it's like fâya as Iâm not you. But, I do know what itâs like to not be able to do everything a 29 year old can do. I may not have autoimmune, but I had different responsibilities that didnât allow me the joys of doing everything that I wanted, including the joys of being with a beautiful woman like yourself at that age. Thatâs why I want to help you.âÂ
As soon as Joel called you beautiful, he saw your reaction. You started to blush on your cheeks from the compliment. You felt flattered by the older man that was in front of you. Meanwhile, Joel internally scolded himself at how his statement wasn't proper patient-doctor etiquette. Joel had vowed to himself that he wouldn't cross that line again, especially with you, no matter how drop dead gorgeous he thought you were.
Joel began to run a few tests with you, checking your reflexes and testing your mobility. You didnât say anything else to him after his statement. You felt embarrassed by your actions and assumptions that he didn't care or understand, when you could clearly see that he did. The longer you looked at him, the more you could see that he was someone who truly did care about helping others. You silently wondered if his treatment would actually help.
âDr. Miller?â you asked, wanting to scratch the itch of your curiosity in understanding the treatment that he was suggesting.
âJoelâ he said as he pushed on your shoulder blades. When you winced he said âare you tender here?â as he pushed on the same spot again, but this time with a little less force.
âYeah. Iâm tender there, and everywhere,â you said with a hiss as he moved his hand down to your biceps. âItâs tender inside every joint, and sometimes muscles. Winterâs in Minnesota arenât too nice for people like me,â you said, head hanging low as a tear slipped down your cheeks. Â
You felt Joel stop testing your joints and muscles, hands still on your arms when he placed his finger gently under your chin, slightly tilting your head up so you could look him in the eyes. After a moment he said, âWell, weâll try to rectify that now wonât we. Massage is more than just relaxinâ, it helps a lot of people in ways that can-â
âCan it cure me?â you said, interrupting him, with wide eyes. âCause if it can cure me, Iâll do anything. But donât tell me that itâll work miracles. Don't get my hopes up and then have it fail. I-I canât take it anymore with all of the disappointmentâ you said, closing your eyes to take a steadying breath as tears gathered at your waterline. It has been a very long and exhausting road these past three years with your autoimmune journey. You found out early on that your body couldnât tolerate medication, and nothing else seemed to work.Â
âI canât promise that itâll do miracles by curinâ ya, but I can promise that Iâll try my best to make you feel better. Howâs that?â Joel said with a tender voice, trying to soothe your emotional discomfort of years of failed treatments. Joel remembered reading the last line of your referral by Dr. Samson which had stated;
âNo treatments have been successful. Patient has voiced wanting to stop trying autoimmune treatments, stating that she didnât feel like it was working. Patient was informed that if she decided to fully stop taking immunosuppressant medications, that the end result would be major organ damage that could lead to death. Patient agreed to try one more treatment for pain, stating that if the treatment didnât work, then sheâd stop autoimmune treatments altogether and âlet whatever happens, happenâ.âÂ
âFuck,â Joel had thought when he first read that last line in your medical file. Someone giving up, especially at such a young age, didn't sit well with him. Being 29, your entire world was still in front of you. You had a lot more years and possibilities of life in front of you. Giving up wasn't something that Joel did, and the fact that you had voiced wanting to stop treatments to your doctor bothered him immensely. Truly, it wasn't necessarily the fact that you had wanted to stop treatments that upset him. It was your willingness to allow death to potentially consume you that truly got to him. You were too young to die.
20 minutes later, you were lying on your stomach with a sheet covering your lower half. You were completely naked, scolding yourself internally that you didnât wear underware today with your pants. Joel was slowly massaging your back, trying to work out the knots that he felt in your muscles. As his hands continued to work out the knots and tension, you felt an overwhelming sense of relief. His touch was not only skilled, but carried a reassurance that echoed through your body. You felt safe with him, safe in a way that you havenât for a long time. You felt like if you were near him, that heâd take all the bad in the world away for you. And if you were being honest, this comfort was something that you haven't felt in a very long time from anyone.
"You're doing great, darlinâ," Joel whispered, sensing your vulnerability and turmoil you had been feeling. Joel could tell that you were working through something major in your head, just like most of his patients did. Most of the time he focused on trying to distract people from their internal thoughts, giving them a break when they were here. But there was something about the silence between the two of you right now that he felt like you desperately needed. Every time heâd open his mouth to ask you a question, heâd feel you tense up, and that was the last thing he wanted you to do. So he slowly worked your sore muscles and joints, giving them the tenderness and affection that they needed, while allowing you to stay seated in silence.Â
Throughout the session, Joel maintained an empathetic connection with you. He explained each technique when heâd switch it up, providing you with the most gentle sense of comfort. Heâd tell you what he was going to do, if he moved down your body or up, giving you moments to breathe when he felt like it was too much. But most of all, he gave you that warmth and unawkward silence that you craved. He wanted you to just live and feel, to just be in the moment with him.
As Joel's tender touch continued, you felt a warmth spread throughout your body, slightly dissipating the pain that had lingered there for so long. His words became a comforting melody, echoing a promise to you of relief. âYouâre doing so good fâme, gentle breaths in and out, there yâgo.â He said, encouraging you to stay centered and remain in the moment. That was the key in pain relief, staying grounded and living within the moment. When we just allow our body to feel, and not force anything, we can find peace and calmness. These feelings of peace and calmness are what leads us to having pain relief.
As Joel moved down to your lower back, you let out a hiss in pain, followed by an âouch that hurts.âÂ
âWhat hurts darlinâ?â Joel said, slowing his deep strokes on your lower back, right above your tailbone area. He doesnât remember reading in your file that you had lower back pain, so this was something new that caught him a little off guard.
âRight there, lowâ you said, hissing again as he pressed his finger into the lower part of your back, on your left side, by your hip.
After you hissed a second time, Joel immediately stopped and walked around to the other side of the massage table. He gently pressed on your lower back and hip joint on the other side, saying, âhow âbout over here, does this hurt?â
âNo, not as bad,â you said. âIt's my left side, god that hurts.â You said, as he reached over and lightly pressed on your left side once again.
âOk, letâs try somethinâ,'' Joel said, moving completely over to your left side now. âIâm gonna hold up the blanket, where you still are covered, and I want you to flip completely on your back, okay? I wanna see if your pain continues in a different position.â
You nodded your head and then gently felt the blankets pull off from you. Joel was completely looking away from you, giving you privacy as you turned to lay on your back instead of your stomach. When you finally settled, you told him that you were ready. He then informed you that he was only going to uncover your left leg, to the mid thigh region. As he did, he explained how he was going to test your leg's range of motion to see if it was your hip joint that had caused you pain.Â
With only doing simple joint motions with your leg, Joel noticed that nothing was painful. When he bent your knee, pointing your knee outwards towards the left, followed by gently lifting your leg higher, to open up your pelvis more, he didnât see any outward signs of pain from you.Â
âIf I do this, does it hurt?â He said, placing a little weight on your leg.
As soon as your knee got about level with your pelvis you hissed again. Joel tried pushing down on your pelvic joint to determine where it hurt, but all you did was whimper. The pain wasnât coming from your joint, it was coming from someplace else deep inside of you. When he returned your leg back down he said âIâm sorry darlinâ, I canât determine where your pain is coming from. Have you had it-â
âJust forget about itâ you said, turning your head to the opposite side, closing your eyes as you felt the tears start to stream down your face.
âHey, none of that, '' Joel said, gently turning your chin towards him so he could see your face in its entirety. âIf somethinâ is hurting ya, I wanna hear about it. Help me out, where does it hurt?â When you didnât respond right away he said, âdoes it hurt hereâ as he gently pressed on your hip bone. He watched you shake your head no. âHow about here?â He asked, moving slightly inward, towards the inside of your pelvic bone.
With a shaky breath you said, âno, but it hurts straight down, but lower and inward more.â
âHereâ he said, moving down about halfway where your hip joint was, towards the inside of your pelvis. You let out another shaky breath, closing your eyes as tears fell more from your cheeks, shaking your head no to him. Â
It took Joel a second to figure it out. But when he did, he finally understood why you were crying. You were embarrassed about what was happening inside of your body. When he moved his hand down towards the lower left side quadrant of your abdomen, and gently pushed where your ovaries were, he asked, âdoes it hurt here darlinâ?â As soon as he applied a little bit of pressure to your left ovary area, you let out a stuttered breath, nodding your head up and down.
Joel flattened his hand on your tummy, where the sensation was, knowing what the culprit was. You were probably mid cycle and ovulating with an ovarian cyst. He didnât remember you being pregnant, but he wanted to make sure that it wasn't an ectopic pregnancy before he ruled it as an ovarian problem.
âIf I press over here, does it hurt?â Joel said, pressing on the other side in the lower abdomen. You had your eyes closed, tears lightly falling, shaking your head no.
âOk, ok, darlinâ. I know, I know. Deep breaths for me though, ok?â he said, as he watched tears stream down your face. He gave you a moment to collect yourself, before he asked his next question.Â
âIs there any chance you could be pregnant?â He said, slowly stroking your tummy where a baby would be laying. He knew he shouldnât, but somehow imagining you having a swollen tummy where a baby would lay was giving him fantasies that he didnât even know existed.Â
You let out a sarcastic laugh, saying, âno, itâs not that.â
Puzzled, Joel looked at you and said, âyâknow, if an ectopic pregnancy happened, yâstill could have a normal period. If thereâs any chance that you could be pregnant, like having unprotected sex, or even if the condom broke, you probably should-â
âJoel, I havenât had sex in 3 years,â you said, barely above a whisper. When you noticed the shocked look on his face you turned your head away from him adding, âguys really donât want to have sex with a woman like me.â
âWhatâd yâmean, a woman like you?â He said, furrowing his brows at your odd phrasing.Â
âA woman whoâs sick with autoimmune, Joel.â You said, closing your eyes and trying to pull back the tears that were threatening to fall again. You didn't want to have this conversation, and you sure as hell didn't want to admit how the act of even having orgasms were difficult for you. There were just some autoimmune embarrassments that you wanted to keep to yourself, no matter how much it shattered your soul inside. You didn't feel like a beautiful, young, sexy, attractive woman that you knew all the other single 29 year old ladies felt. You felt like you couldnât offer anything to the male race that wasn't medical tests, sickness, and heartache combined.
Immediately Joel felt irritation and anger at your careless comment of how men wouldn't find you attractive or want to be with you. Without dwelling on it, Joel did the one thing that he knew he shouldn't, he opened his mouth to speak more on the issue. He hoped he could get you to understand that not all men were like this, that he sure as hell wasn't like this.
âDarlinâ, boys, not real men, are like that. A real man wouldnât allow sickness to stop him from wantinâ a beautiful woman like yourself. A real man would enjoy making you feel good. Real men, honey, not boys.âÂ
Once he said it, Joel knew that he shouldnât have opened his mouth, especially with the look that you were giving him. You looked back at him, shocked, and taken aback by his forward statement. But he couldnât just stand there and listen to you accuse men, like him, of not caring. He would do anything to be with a beautiful woman like yourself, whether or not you were sick with a permanent illness.
After your head caught up with Joel's statement on men, you just shook your head. You then gave him a genuine, honest to god, belly laugh. âYeah, well, Mr. Miller, show me where a real man is who wouldnât care about all of that. Tell me who he is, because honestly, I havenât found one single guy out there whoâd be willing to have a real relationship with me because of this illness. And for the record, I canât even get a guy to fuck me with no strings attached either. Not that Iâd want that, cause I donât do the casual sex thing, but still, you get it.â You said, snapping right back at him.Â
It was Joel's turn this time to look shocked. He thought to himself, why the hell has no one treated you right? He could see that you were exhausted with your own body and with your own life. He could tell that you were exhausted at the reminder of what you didn't have, of what your autoimmune disease had taken from you. He wondered if you ever truly tried, or if you just gave up right away. The longer he looked at you, the more he realized that you had tried, but obviously you weren't successful.
As you sat there partially propped up onto your forearms, you felt the tears well up into your eyes once again as you watched Joel look at you. You were embarrassed at what you had said. At admitting how easy it was for everyone else in the world to have relationships, everyone except you. Hell your own family even disowned you after your diagnosis stating that it was âtoo hard for them to handle.â So you've been doing this on your own, all alone, for the past 3 years. Exhausted didn't even come close to describing the way that you felt.Â
As you gently laid back down at this realization of loneliness once again, silently scolding yourself for opening your mouth, you accidentally hit the back of your head on the table, muttering âshitâ under your breath. After a moment, you heard Joel let out another long sigh and then he gently grabbed your chin and said, âhey, look at me.â
When you looked into Joelâs eyes, he was staring back at you with concern and tenderness lacing his features. Joel saw your frustration and array of emotions, and he felt like it was important for him to take away all those insecurities by telling you that he wasn't like all those other boys you were with. With a slight smile, he gently cupped your cheek and said, âdarlinâ, a real man, like me, doesnât fucking care if youâre sick or not. Men, like me honey, would take care of you regardless of the problems that you have. And honestly, itâs a damn shame that no one has ever taken their time with you, making sure your needs were met. If I was with you, I'd make damn sure you were enjoying it the entire time.âÂ
Joel then removed his hand and placed both hands on the side of the massage table, stepping back and exhaling through his mouth as he looked down at the ground. He knew he needed to end this session right now. He's already stepped over far too many lines, and if he didn't watch it, he'd cross an even bigger one of showing you how a real man gave a beautiful woman pleasure.
You laid there watching the turmoil unfold on Joel's face. He wouldn't look up at you, kept staring down at the floor, shifting his weight back and forth on his feet periodically. He had checked his watch several times, attempted to clear his throat once, and had quickly glanced out the window. You knew those signs, he was trying to find a nice way to end the session or end the conversation. The more you watched him, the more upset you got.Â
After Joel stood there staring outside for a while, he finally cleared his throat again. âI- uh, I think Dr. Anderson can probably help you better, sheâs very good with this type of stuff,â he said, waving his arm at you, but not looking at you.Â
When he straightened up to walk away you closed your eyes and said in a soft voice, âPlease, please, help me.â You wanted to keep your voice steady, but you found that it slightly cracked at the end, which made you internally scold yourself. You weren't a weak person by nature, you couldn't afford to be with a disease that was slowly destroying your organs and killing you from the inside out. But somehow you felt like you were weak, like you were just a shell of the person that you once were. At first, when you asked for his help, you didn't know what exactly you were asking for. But as the seconds ticked by, with him not answering, you realized that you were pleading for him to see you.
Without looking at you, Joel asked in a gentle tone, âwhat do yâneed help with?â When he turned back around towards you, his eyes were closed, and he was taking several steadying breaths. He was trying to calm his nerves and to silence the war that was going on in his mind. His mind was screaming at him, reminding him that this was inappropriate patient-doctor conversation or relations. He knew he needed to stop. So it shocked him to hear himself say a little louder, âDarlinâ, what do you need help with?â
You just stared up at him, searching his face to see if what you wanted to voice was okay for you to do. You wanted him, as a man, to find you attractive and to touch you. But how could you ask him to go against all of his code of ethics as a medical provider just to touch you like a husband would touch a wife, desperately and passionately. You didnât even know if he was married, or even in a relationship with someone else.Â
As Joel opened his eyes, he looked down at you, and it was then that he knew what you wanted. You were looking at him the same way his ex-wife used to look at him from time to time. When sheâd plead with him to fuck her, to silence all her insecurities in her head. He hasn't seen a woman look at him like that for almost 20 years, and it did something to him. It made his resolve crumble instantly where he said âfuck it' in his own head, and he gave in to his primal instinct of helping you as a man, not as your doctor.
âBaby, come on. I ainât gonna ask yâagain. What is it that you need, honey? Tell me, and I'll do it.â
âJoel, please,â was all you could say, begging him with your eyes, trying to tell him what you wanted.
âNo, now, come on. Y'gotta use your words for me. Be a good girl and tell Daddy what he can do to help you and make you feel better.â
As soon as Joel had said the word daddy, he instantly scolded himself. But when he saw your eyes glaze over with arousal at the name, he knew what you wanted. You lightly whimpered and started squeezing your thighs tight together.Â
Joel felt dizzy for a moment as blood rushed fast to his cock at your whimper, his cock hardening to the point of being painful. But this wasn't about him. This was about you, about showing you that a real man, like him, could give you affection and attention like you so desperately needed.Â
He walked towards you, gently placing his hand onto your thigh, lightly stroking it. He was trying to center you and help you communicate with him in what you wanted and needed. He knew all of this was wrong, but he couldn't help himself, especially when you begged him to touch you.
âJoel, please, touch me,â you said, while grabbing his hand and guiding it to below the blanket to where you were practically throbbing.Â
âF-fuck,â Joel slightly moaned, closing his eyes at the feeling of you not wearing any underwear as he touched your slick velvet folds underneath the blanket with his hand. Your lips were slightly swollen, aroused, and desperately needing attention. You were making a mess on his table, slick pouring out of you from your needy little hole. You wanted Joel to help soothe the ache deep within you, to take your pain away.
Joel slowly moved his finger down to your center. Feeling your pussy spasm and clench around nothing. He rested his finger at your opening, not pushing his finger inside of you just yet, but slowly stroking it with feather-like touches. âBaby, we shouldnât do thisâ he said, still slowly circling your opening, and not stopping or pushing his finger in. He needed to hear your verbal confession that you wanted this, that you wanted him. As Joel felt your hole clench a second time at nothing, he said, âbaby, please, say somethinâ.â
You moaned slightly while opening your hips up to allow him better access to you. âMoreâ was the only audible thing that you could say at the moment. And that's when Joelâs resolve fully crumbled, and he pushed two fingers knuckle deep inside of you, stretching you perfectly around him.
âFuck baby, that's tight. Ya squeezing my fingers in a goddamn vice.â He said, growling low, followed by a soft grunt.
You willed yourself to relax, to allow Joel in more. To allow him to get deeper within you, to where you knew that you needed him. To say his fingers were a stretch was an understatement. His fingers were longer and thicker than what you were used to. It was a comfortable stretch, but almost borderline on being painful. You've never been stretched out this much with just fingers alone. If you had to guess by his slow movements he was doing right now, you thought that Joel was a very experienced man, especially when he curled his fingers and found that spot deep within you that you've never found before. As soon as he hit it, your eyes rolled back in your head and you softly moaned âfuuuck.â
âThere she is, right there huh, baby?â He said, angling his hand a bit more to get a little deeper as he started to stroke your g-spot with those perfected come hither movements.Â
Joel was good at three things: First, he was a very hard worker. He had the perfect street smarts to own and operate two successful businesses in his lifetime. Second, he was an amazing father. Always listening and being there for his girls. And finally, he was an attentive lover. He listened, and found what worked for every woman that heâs ever been with. He knew how to fuck a woman just right, and how to bring her the most and best pleasure. And that was something that he made sure you understood at the moment with his fingers.
As Joel continued to work his magic with his fingers, pushing them a little deeper inside of you, and picking up the pace in stroking you, you felt your walls spasm more. You let out a low moan, breathing starting to become erratic as the sensation of pleasure took over your body. You were right, you obviously hadn't had a good fuck for a long time, especially considering that you were not far from coming undone on just his fingers alone with no clit stimulation whatsoever. And if you could describe the feeling that you were feeling right now with his fingers moving inside of you, you would describe it as being âfucking fantastic.â
Joel found himself matching your small moan with a groan of his own, especially when he looked down and noticed your pussy was dripping all over him. He slowly started withdrawing his fingers, giving you time to adjust, before pushing them back in. It was obscene, the wet squelching noises that your beautiful cunt was making for him. You were biting your lip, eyes casted away from him. He gently grabbed your chin with his other hand, turning you towards him while saying âno darlinâ, eyes right here. Ya keep âem on me, ok?â He said, as he slowly kept pushing his fingers in and out of you. He kept up the slow pace for a bit, working you up, not wanting to fully tip you over the edge just yet. He knew that you needed this, that you needed to enjoy the experience.
âJoel, it feels- fuck, it feels, it feels,â you were at a loss for words at the moment. You were struggling to keep your eyes on him right now, fighting them from wanting to roll back into your head at the sensation of pleasure.
âI know baby. Fuck, just listen to her, she needs this huh? Your pussy needs this, doesnât she? This. Nice. Slow. Finger. Fuck, huh?â He said, slowing down more and thrusting harder with his fingers at every word he said, drawing out your pleasure more. The longer he fucked you slow with his fingers, the more your pussy gripped him hard, sucking him in, not wanting him to leave. You were panting, starting to squirm, getting lost in the pleasure. Joel wanted to tease you a little longer, but he figured you werenât used to this kind of play. Something he intended to do next time he had you alone, preferably in his bed with you begging for his cock.Â
When Joel saw you start to match his thrusts with your own, he knew it was time for him to tip you over the edge. So Joel really started to finger fuck you you now, the way that he knew women liked. When he did that, you cried out at the stimulation and surprise of his actions.
âShhh baby, it's alright,â he said, cooing at you to quiet you down. âNow, darlinâ, youâre gonna be a good girl and come all over these fingers, ok? Then you're getting a full refund today. I don't charge money to finger fuck my clients.â
You nodded your head, trying to keep your eyes open as Joel massaged the inside of your velvety warm walls, getting closer to the edge. Your toes were starting to curl, breathing was very erratic. You were getting very close to cumming.
âAnd lastly sweetheart,â he said, putting pressure down on your lower abdomen, and curling his fingers in a way that he knew would make your vision go blurry, while building a firm pressure sensation inside of your abdomen. âYou must communicate with me with your words when something doesn't feel good, or if you want me to do something differently. You know your body better than me honey. I don't, so help me make you feel good. Okay?â
Fuck you were wrecked, seconds away from crashing through, or into, a brick wall with an orgasm, you thought. This felt different though, so much different than what youâve ever experienced before. âJoel, fuck, pressure, itâs a lot of pressure and Iâm, fuck, Iâm, Iâm-â
âCome fâme sweetheart. Come on baby, fucking soak my fingersâ Joel growled in your ear as the rubberband inside of you snapped hard. When it did, your cunt seized around his fingers as you felt the gush of fluid come out of you, he made you squirt for the first time. Your vision went white, ears ringing, legs shaking from the intensity of it all. Youâve never come so hard ever in your life, and you couldnât help the loud moan that escaped your lips around Joelâs hand that was now covering your mouth. He continued to fuck you through your orgasm, whispering âgood fucking girlâ with a strained voice as he watched you come undone. His own pupils were blown wide, eyes impossibly dark with lust, wanting nothing more than to bury his cock deep inside of you, to feel you spasm around him hard like this. But that would have to happen at a later time. Today was about you, about giving you something that you needed, attention from a man. You were a beautiful woman, and you deserved to have a man take care of you in this way, and other ways too, even if you did have autoimmune disease.Â
Joel continued to slowly work you through your high, pumping his fingers gently in and out of you. When you finally came back to Earth, he removed his soaked fingers from your cunt and then he slammed his lips hard against your mouth, kissing you fervently. You licked the seam of his lips, asking for access into his mouth, which he quickly granted. You two were wrestling your tongues together, each seeking dominance over the other. Joel has never been kissed like this, with so much passion that he hated pulling away from you mere moments later, gasping for breath as his heart raced out of control in his chest.Â
âFuck woman, no oneâs ever kissed me like that,â he said, gasping for breath. Joel placed his forehead gently against yours, eyes closed, breathing you in as his heart rate slowed in his chest.
âDo you want me to take care of you?â you asked, laying your hand gently on his crotch, feeling him buck slightly into your touch beneath you.
âNo baby, I wanna do this right, take ya out first, if yâdonât mind.â
âYou don't have to if you don't want to, I mean-â
Joel snapped open his eyes and stood up looking at you, furrowing his brows. He then shook his head and said âdon'tâ, and walked over to the sink in the corner of the room to wash his hands. You sat up, chewing on your lip, overthinking things once again. After a moment of silence you heard him speak when he shut the water off.
âI'm not some 20 year old punk ass boy who only cares about getting his own rocks off, darlin'. I don't do that sort of thing. Now, if you don't want to have dinner with me, then that's fine. But I'd really like to take yâout.â
âLike a date?â You asked, looking into his eyes hopeful.
âYes baby, like a date.â He said, standing in front of you, holding a robe up for you to take to cover your naked body up.
âYeah, but what happens when I- when we- when it's done? Or what happens if I can't because of this- because of autoimmune?â you say, motioning your hand up and down at your body.Â
Joel took a big breath in, and then slowly let it out through his nose. He then cupped your face with both hands and said, âok, I'm gonna stop you right there. First, I don't fuck on the first date, ok, so don't worry your pretty lilâ head about it. And second, I don't give a damn if we have to reschedule. I understand you have autoimmune disease, remember I've read your file.â Joel immediately winced at that reminder, of how he has crossed every line in the sand with his actions. He didn't know how he was going to explain to Dr. Samson that his treatment wouldn't work with you and that he was going to refer you to Dr. Anderson. It was going to cost him big time, he knew that. Dr. Linda Anderson wouldn't just drop it, she'd want an explanation. But Joel couldn't think about that right now, he'd deal with it and her later.
âBut Joel it's-â
âDo you not want to go out to dinner with me?â He asked, the color draining from him face. Did he read you wrong? Were you just looking for a quick orgasm and nothing more? He rubbed his neck in embarrassment, thinking he completely fucked up at your signals once again. âYou-uh, you don't have to say yes if you don't want to. I mean, if I read you wrong you can- uh, no pressure to say no.â He was internally scolding himself at this entire situation, of how much he's fucked up today. His ex-wife was right, he thought, he definitely doesnât understand what women need nor want. Proof was here, right in front of him, with your reluctance to say yes to just dinner.Â
Joel turned to walk out, mumbling âI'll give you some privacy to get dressed. I'll tell Ashley to give you a refund when I see her tomorrow, donât worry, sheâs already left for the day. And you can just forget about today if you want, if I made you feel uncomfortable. Iâll sorry, I just-â
âStop, please,â you said, grabbing his arm. âDon't leave. Everyone does, everyone leaves me. I-I want you to stay with me right now, please.âÂ
Joel stopped and looked at you, seeing the gears in your head turning. After a moment he said, âplease honey, ya gotta tell me what you're thinking. I can't-â
âI want to go out on a date with you Joel, it's just, don't have high expectations or hopes for me, ok? Men do, and then as they get to know me they- they get mad when I don't meet something that they wanted. I- this- itâs hard ok? Itâs hard âcause I have a gorgeous man in front of me that I've been attracted to since the moment I saw him, and all I want is for him to see me. To really see me. And I- I donât wanna fuck that all up where you hate me, or think Iâm a failure and I- I should just really stop talking.â You said, laughing at yourself and blushing at the fact that you just spilled all of your insecurities in the air to a stranger. A very hot stranger, but a stranger nevertheless.
âHoney,â he said, grabbing your hand softly. âI want all that too and, if I'm being honest, I'm a little scared of a date too as it's been a long time since I've done this. The whole dating thing, it hasnât been a priority of mine for a while. But I wanna do it fâyou, with you. We can take it slow, we can figure it out together, ok? How does that sound?â Joel then leaned in and gave you a soft, delicate kiss on your lips, one that immediately calmed your nerves.Â
âOk, yes. Dinner would be great,â you said, a tad breathless after Joel pulled away from kissing you. You took a moment to compose yourself, to will the butterflies to calm down in your tummy at the thought of getting a chance to have a date with this man.
Joel watched the blush rise up in your cheeks, and if he was being honest, it flattered the hell out of him. That a simple gentle kiss could get you all hot and bothered, where you were blushing for him. âOk, good,â he said, smiling. âHow about I pick you up around 6pm this Saturday?â
You nodded your head, and noticed that Joel furrowed his brows at the lack of your speaking to him again. You quickly said, âSaturday would be perfect.âÂ
Joel stood there for a moment, glancing over your features, looking at you intently, making sure that you in fact truly wanted this. Once he found what he was looking for, he stepped back and gave you a small smirk.Â
âOk, darlinâ. Now for life's biggest, and most important question. What toppings do yâlike on your Pizza?â Joel decided to take you to his favorite pizza place on Saturday. When he saw you smile, he knew that he picked a good choice.
âWell Miller,â you said, while giving him your best playful smirk. âYouâre just going to have to take me out to find out.â

so for those unaware, rooster teeth's annual extra life stream this year (2023) will be on november 11th at 10 am central time. the stream is back to being 24 hours long, and the schedule has recently been posted on rt's social media accounts. with this context, this post is going to carry a more somber tone than the usual extra life posts i used to make. this is because of the hospital that rt gives their donation money to: dell children's medical center. most of the links going forward are to articles from news sites i read through to gather and cross-reference any public information i can find to make sure what i'm sharing is accurate. general content warning for transphobia ahead.
in late april and early may, news started coming out that ken paxton, a texas attorney general, announced an investigation to "determine whether it [dell children's] is "unlawfully" providing certain gender-affirming medical care to minors." he made a statement about it on the 5th of may, and allegedly, said investigation was sparked by a video in mid-april shared by far-right activist group project veritas. i'm not linking the video directly because the group has a history of video manipulation and general disinformation throughout its existence, and i'm not a fan of, frankly speaking, spreading their bullshit, but it's linked in the nbc article for further context.
anyways, an alleged employee in that video claimed that patients at the hospital were provided gender-affirming treatment, and started to medically transition around the ages of 8 or 9 years old. dell children's official statement was shared around a week after the project veritas video was published, basically refuting the claim and explicitly stating that the hospital "prohibits surgery and prescribing hormone therapy for the treatment of gender dysphoria for children". they also note that they were "conducting a thorough review of this situation." as a result, many patients and their parents "began hearing that appointments with the hospitalâs adolescent medicine specialists had been canceled and that their providers no longer worked at the hospital", leaving families to find another health provider in the state or consider looking into out-of-state resources and doctors for a better chance at receiving care. i didn't find a source that specified if those whose were no longer at dell children's chose to quit or were involuntarily fired, but it's still unfortunate either way.
keep in mind that like rooster teeth, dell children's is based in austin, texas, and the state of texas (especially within the last year) has a history of transphobia and general lgbtphobia with laws that have been proposed and/or put into effect. one of those laws that went into effect was senate bill sb 14, which went into effect on september 1st, and outlaws minors (those under 18 years old) from receiving hormone therapy, puberty blockers, and general gender-affirming care from medical professionals, as well as disallowing said professionals from prescribing care or performing surgeries to the patients.
now, the reason i typed all of this in the first place is that as far as i know (please tell me if i'm wrong here), rt hasn't made a public statement about this whole thing, nor has it been stated that they decided to give money to another hospital, or keep everything as is. i saw no one here on tumblr talking about it, and i didn't want to keep quiet myself, so i tried to make this as thorough as possible. i made a post last year noting that you can donate your money to your local hospital or donate through another individual or organization other that rt on the official extra life website. that also applies to this year's event.
whatever you decide to do or not do, always make sure to do your research on reputable, verified organizations. if you're donating your well-earned money somewhere, be confident that it's somewhere you can trust.

Quirk Counselling
Cause Mimi asked me to expand, and like-
Weird place to start, but have you ever read up on the history of plague doctors?
Most of them werenât actually doctors. The Plague sprang up so fast, the government didnât have the time, money, or resources to hire that many doctors. All things considered, Iâm not sure that many doctors existed at the time, especially when many actual doctors were likely to be the first one to get sick. Given the way people got sick, government concern was very quickly becoming less about curing the disease, and more about containing the spread, figuring out who had it. And you didnât need to be a medical professional to do that. Apparently, the most common occupation of Plague Doctor wasnât âmedical professionalâ it was farmer, greengrocer, and butcher. People who werenât making a lot of money at the time, cause being a Plague Doctor paid REALLY WELL. They were sending you to check up on sick people, and possibly get sick yourself and die. So they had to make this position look good. So, even if you died, your family would suddenly have quite a bit of money. âPlague Doctorsâ werenât really about being DOCTORS, they were about confirming whether or not someone had the Plague. They worked more like census workers who gave out shitty medical advice, than anything. Seriously, read up on Plague Doctors sometime, cause it can be real interesting.
Anyway, I imagine this sort of thing is how ��Quirk Counsellorsâ started. When Quirks first started popping up, the governments of the world would make it mandatory to see someone when they manifested a Quirk. Because most of this would be little kids, they frame it as âhelping them developâ, but the reality is they want to know what portion of the population HAS Quirks and what they are. And again, you donât need a medical degree to tell someone else your observations about a person. I imagine that all initial Quirk Counsellors were just random government agents, and had to submit their files to a government database, so itâs basically registering your Quirk status with the government. But they had to keep up with demand, so you hire anyone who applies, and you pay them well, cause you want them to like you, and youâre sending someone to check out a potentially dangerous situation, you are paying them enough to not care about the possible poison gas.
Of course, some things would have changed by present day, mostly cause so has society, but I imagine Quirk Counsellors havenât changed much since their inception. While there can be private Quirk Counsellors, most are still government positions. Literally anyone can do the job. There arenât any qualifications. You donât need any kind of medical degree, you maybe need to complete an online course (maybe) that takes like six weeks. They pay REALLY WELL. Youâd get all kinds of people - those who genuinely want to help but have no clue what theyâre doing, those donât give a fuck and are here for the pay check, those who are actually really good at it but suck at marketing themselves. Itâs a shitshow.
I imagine thereâs probably SOME regulation, but none of it is government mandated, itâs all done by the community. By review, and word of mouth. Like, Quirk Specialists are probably a thing - a Quirk Counsellor that specializes in a specific kind of Quirk type. I imagine that Specialists are probably the ones you want, because the idea is they dedicate their time to something specific, so actually know what theyâre talking about. General Quirk Counsellors, who sort of do a bit of everything, are who you go to âdiagnoseâ your Quirk, then you go to a Specialist. But even that isnât a guarantee that youâll get someone good. Some Quirk Counsellors network. Some donât. Some charge you additional fees. Some will only see you if you agree to a certain number of sessions. Some reserve the right to name your Quirk for you. It is a MESS.
-
Oh I love this and unfortunately for everyone involved this works very well for the role of a certain OC I canât wait to kill!

Hair Transplant Clinic in Brighton - Transforming Hair Loss with Expert Care
Hair loss can be a distressing experience, affecting not only oneâs appearance but also confidence and self-esteem. For those seeking a permanent solution, a hair transplant clinic in Brighton offers expert care and advanced treatments to restore hair and confidence. With a focus on personalized service, cutting-edge techniques, and experienced surgeons, Brightonâs clinics are becoming a go-to destination for individuals seeking natural-looking hair restoration.
Hereâs an overview of why choosing a hair transplant clinic in Brighton is a smart decision, what to expect from the procedure, and the benefits of opting for professional hair restoration services.
1. Expert Consultation and Personalized Treatment Plans
The first step in any hair transplant journey is a thorough consultation with a specialist. Brighton clinics provide personalized consultations to assess the extent of hair loss, discuss the patientâs goals, and determine the best course of treatment.
Comprehensive Evaluation: During the consultation, a specialist will evaluate the patientâs hair loss pattern, examine the donor and recipient areas, and review medical history. This helps in creating a tailored treatment plan that ensures optimal results.
Customized Solutions: Every individualâs hair loss situation is unique. Whether you are experiencing early-stage thinning or more advanced hair loss, clinics in Brighton offer solutions designed to meet your specific needs. This personalized approach helps ensure natural-looking results that match your hair type, color, and texture.
2. Advanced Hair Transplant Techniques
Hair transplant clinics in Brighton utilize the latest techniques to provide minimally invasive and highly effective treatments. Two of the most popular methods are Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) and Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT).
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction): FUE is a minimally invasive technique where individual hair follicles are extracted from the donor area (usually the back of the scalp) and transplanted to the thinning or balding areas. This method leaves minimal scarring and allows for a faster recovery time, making it a popular choice for many patients.
FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation): FUT involves removing a strip of skin with hair follicles from the donor area and transplanting it to the recipient site. While this method may leave a linear scar, it is often chosen for patients who need a larger number of grafts in a single session.
Both techniques offer permanent results and are performed by skilled surgeons who prioritize natural-looking outcomes. Depending on the extent of hair loss, the surgeon will recommend the best method to achieve the desired results.
3. Natural-Looking Results and Long-Term Benefits
One of the key advantages of undergoing a hair transplant at a Brighton clinic is the ability to achieve natural-looking results. The transplanted hair is your own, so it grows just like the rest of your hair, blending seamlessly with the existing hairline.
Permanent Hair Growth: Once the transplanted follicles take root, they continue to grow naturally over time. The results are long-lasting, offering a permanent solution to hair loss.
Boosted Confidence: Hair restoration can significantly boost self-esteem and confidence. Many patients report feeling more comfortable in social settings and enjoying a renewed sense of well-being after their procedure.
4. State-of-the-Art Facilities and Skilled Surgeons
Brightonâs hair transplant clinics are known for their state-of-the-art facilities, ensuring patients receive the highest standard of care. The clinics are equipped with the latest technology and tools required for advanced hair restoration procedures.
Experienced Surgeons: Hair transplant procedures require a high level of skill and precision. Clinics in Brighton employ experienced surgeons who specialize in hair restoration and have a track record of successful treatments.
Comfort and Safety: Patient comfort and safety are top priorities at Brighton clinics. From the initial consultation to post-procedure care, the medical teams ensure a smooth and stress-free experience.
5. Aftercare and Recovery Support
Following the procedure, proper aftercare is essential to ensure successful healing and optimal results. Brightonâs hair transplant clinics provide detailed aftercare instructions and follow-up appointments to monitor the healing process.
Faster Recovery: Modern hair transplant techniques, such as FUE, offer shorter recovery times with minimal discomfort. Patients can usually return to their normal activities within a few days.
Post-Procedure Support: Clinics offer comprehensive post-procedure support, including advice on how to care for the transplanted area, scalp treatments to promote healing, and follow-up consultations to track progress.
Conclusion
Hair Transplant Clinic Brighton For individuals seeking a permanent solution to hair loss, a hair transplant clinic in Brighton offers the expertise, advanced technology, and personalized care necessary to achieve natural-looking, long-lasting results. Whether youâre in the early stages of hair thinning or experiencing more significant hair loss, the skilled professionals at Brightonâs clinics can help you regain your hair and confidence, transforming your look and improving your quality of life.

I saw a physical therapist for the first time. She took an hour reviewing my medical history, asking me lots of questions. Then she had me bend in various ways, said I was high on a scale that correlates to EDS. Iâm now referred to a genetics specialist for potential diagnosis. My GP said they will ask questions to look for specific things, but I chuckled thinking âcanât they just check everything?â
Itâs an ignorant question, Iâm still asking at the appointment. What was your experience?

Physical Therapy Clinic in New York City
Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome - Joint instability
Joint instability is a common symptom in various subtypes of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS). It occurs due to the inherent weakness and laxity of the connective tissues, including ligaments and tendons, which are responsible for providing stability to the joints. Here are some strategies to manage joint instability in EDS:
Physical Therapy: Working with a physical therapist experienced in managing EDS can be highly beneficial. They can design an exercise program to strengthen the muscles surrounding the affected joints, which helps provide additional support and stability. The focus is often on low-impact exercises, such as swimming or cycling, to improve muscle tone without excessive joint stress.
Joint Protection: Learning proper body mechanics and techniques to protect the joints is important. This may involve avoiding or modifying activities that put excessive stress on the joints, using assistive devices like braces or splints for added stability, and learning techniques for joint relocation in case of dislocations or subluxations.
Strength Training: Strengthening the muscles around the affected joints can help compensate for the inherent joint laxity. Resistance exercises targeted at specific muscle groups can enhance joint stability and reduce the risk of dislocations or subluxations. However, it is crucial to work with a knowledgeable physical therapist or exercise specialist to ensure exercises are appropriate and safe for your specific condition.
Joint Bracing or Taping: External support, such as bracing or taping, can provide additional stability to the affected joints. These devices can help limit excessive joint movement, reduce the risk of dislocations or subluxations, and provide proprioceptive feedback to improve joint position sense.
Lifestyle Modifications: Making certain modifications to daily activities can help reduce joint stress and minimize the risk of injury. This includes using ergonomic tools and adaptive equipment to decrease joint strain during tasks, pacing activities to avoid overexertion, and practicing good posture and body alignment.
Orthopedic Consultation: In some cases, orthopedic consultations may be necessary to assess joint stability and explore potential surgical interventions for severe joint instability or recurrent dislocations. Surgical options may include ligament reconstructions, joint stabilizations, or other procedures aimed at improving joint function and reducing instability.
Remember to consult with a healthcare professional experienced in managing Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome to determine the most appropriate strategies for your specific situation. Each person with EDS is unique, and a personalized approach is essential for effectively managing joint instability and minimizing associated risks.
EDS stands for Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, which is a group of rare genetic disorders affecting the connective tissue in the body. To diagnose EDS, a doctor will typically begin with a physical exam and review of the patient's medical history. They may also order genetic testing to look for mutations in genes associated with EDS.
The physical exam may involve testing the flexibility of the patient's skin, checking for joint hypermobility, and looking for other physical signs of EDS, such as scarring or easy bruising. The doctor may also perform imaging tests, such as MRI or CT scans, to evaluate joint and tissue damage.
There are currently 13 subtypes of EDS, each with its own specific diagnostic criteria. A doctor may use a combination of clinical and genetic testing to determine the subtype of EDS that a patient has.
It is important to note that EDS is a complex condition and can be difficult to diagnose. If you suspect that you or a loved one may have EDS, it is important to consult with a doctor who is knowledgeable about the condition and can provide appropriate testing and treatment.

Voodoo Practices and History
Voodoo is a popular cultural stereotype based on voudon, an Afro-Caribbean religion with its roots in Haiti but with adherents in neighboring countries and the Americas. Voudon is a term that encompasses a wide range of beliefs and practices, from those of the individual to those of the community at large, including a complex system of traditional medicine. Voudon is more than just a set of beliefs. It is a code of conduct passed down through generations through sayings, stories, songs, and folklore.
Voudonists share the Christian belief that the soul can leave the body during sleep or spirit possession. Christian theology views spiritual possession as an attempt by Satan or a demon to possess a human being against their consent. An invaluable first-hand spiritual experience and link to the spirit world, this possession is best used in a ceremony led by a voodoo priest or priestess.
History of Voodoo
Enslaved people created Voudon by fusing their West African religion with the Roman Catholicism they were forced to adopt by their owners, a process known as syncretism. Enslavers were mandated to convert their new African employees to Christianity within eight days of their arrival under a regulation passed in 1685 that also outlawed the practice of traditional African faiths. The Catholic Church approved of slavery because it helped convert Africans to Christianity. Enslaved people coerced into adopting Catholic practices gave them new significance, and many African Vodoo gods eventually came to be identified with Christian saints.
Voodoo Curses, Witchcraft, and its Evil effects
The evil effects of Voodoo encompass Witchcraft as well as Voodoo curse. Modern scientists and doctors are discussing the possibility of something called "Voodoo curse" in peer-reviewed medical journals, demonstrating the negative influence that belief in Voodoo can have on its adherents. The theology and philosophy of voodoo can be all-encompassing and dramatic. This culture has captivated and alarmed outsiders alike.
Witchcraft, an evil effect of Voodoo, involves getting haunted by spirits. Innocent and malicious spirits (kings, heroes, the reach, the righteous poor, obedient servants, etc.) roam freely after dark when the underground gates swing wide open, inspecting the souls of all citizens and keeping tabs on their actions, thoughts, and whether or not they are careful to instill cultural norms in their offspring. Spirits not only protect communities from harm but also oversee daily activities. It is in their hands to prevent droughts, floods, and the spread of deadly diseases.
Spirits would send wicked ones to torment a disobedient individual because while they can cause pain, they can only humiliate a person if he has disobeyed the wishes of his forefathers. As a form of punishment, they might make you sick to your mind, prevent you from taking a shower or medication, restrict you from sleeping in a bed or staying in your own house, and cause you to hear voices belonging to people he knows are dead. Some spirits have the power to direct their target to commit suicide.
Voodoo Priest and Priestess
A Voodoo Priest, or Houngan in the Vodou sect of the religion, is a respected religious and spiritual leader, educator, and role model for other Voodooists. The role of the Voodoo Priest is multifaceted, requiring him to uphold social order, treat the sick, and instruct his disciples in the ways of the religion. In addition, voodoo Priests perform numerous elaborate rituals essential to the faith. Similarly to how a Voodoo Priest is a male healer and leader in Voodoo, a Voodoo Priestess is the term used to describe a female healer and leader in Voodoo.
Voodoo Healing and about our services
It is essential to look for a good voodoo curse removal service. As well-respected voodoo specialists, we would use various methods to restore your health and happiness, including meditation, hypnosis, and rituals, so that you may lead a fulfilled and joyful life. In addition, we have access to some of the most skilled Voodoo practitioners and witch doctors, who will make quick work of any Voodoo spells performed upon you. The best part is that we have been doing Voodoo healing for years.
Voodoo is a significant part of the lives of millions of Haitians, and many people benefit from it. However, the practice also has far-reaching and effective negative consequences for the Haitian people. Most voodoo rituals are theatrical, epic events that fascinate and sometimes terrify onlookers.

So this is a common misconception that there is an equal equation on both sides of the waiting room.
My parents were both doctors so let me use a doctor's office as an example.
My mother, an OB/GYN had 2 employees just for scheduling. She was booked out for 2 years. Sure children are generally a planned event and you can schedule all this so 2 years isn't so daunting but like... what about accidental pregnancy and its your scheduled time for prenatal care but it just isn't happening???
Well there's only so much doctoring that can occur per day and they are trying to help as many people as possible whilst maintaining a high minimum quality of care. This has implications.
Say you waited your 2 years and got your check up and theres a lump and yes you have lost 20 lbs in the last 2 months without significant change in activity or diet... well that's probably immediate lab test time because that stage something or another cancer probably and you ARE going to take up more than you allotted 20 minutes. Giving you anything less would be less than a high quality minimum of care.
Or say you got in due to a cancellation and you are complaining about fatigue and you have always been anemic and so a routine checkup turns into a review of your medical history and reasking a lot of questions to help figure out what is going on because this fatigue seems to be getting worse and you have gone from pale like a cute Victorian to noticably anemic and that's not pointing towards anything good. You are going to take up more than your allotted 20 minutes.
But most of the time its just little things. Having enough time to come in the room and say hello! how's your first child Sarah! and oh I see the little brother is cooking along nicely and just having an ounce of bedside manner so that 20 minutes on a cold lifeless scheduling board turns into 22 or 23 minutes... or the doctor has to go to the bathroom, or they didn't sleep well the night before and they're going a bit slower than usual. You know human stuff. That adds up by lunch and you wait 45 minutes till after your appointment time. Heaven forbid that someone is 10 minutes late because of traffic or bad parking or they just got lost because the GPS always takes people to the ER and even though its on the website to type in the clinic's address VERY carefully people still just say "hey Google give me directions to Dr. Pencroft's office".
My parents often showed up at home at 7-9 pm. They scheduled out till 5. Hell we as a family had to go see Jurassic Park 7 times in theater because EVERY GOD DAMNED TIME my mother got to the part where the lawyer was eaten... a baby who scheduled ZERO appointments ahead of time, decided now was the time to enter the world... like a jerk.
The little things like showing up early and waiting for an hour after your appointment time is generally just how things have to go when you are seeing a specialist occupation, but more importantly it is part of that person's life too, and all the little bits add up. I had no idea that parents were home shortly after their children were dropped off at school. I thought everybody had to wait for 3-5 hours after school to tell their mom or dad about a bad day and needed a hug.
So please take the wait with a grain of salt, or burst into their office with a better solution because they will 100% pay you for it .
i love places that are like DO NOT BE LATE FOR YR APPOINTMENT. YOU CANNOT BE LATE. IF YOU ARE LATE FOR YR APPOINTMENT WE WILL CHARGE YOU ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS. then you get there early just to sit in a waiting room 45 minutes past when yr appointment was.
