Understanding Hormones How They Impact Your Overall Well-Being

Hormones are like the conductors of a grand orchestra within our bodies, orchestrating a myriad of functions that affect our physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Understanding how hormones function and their impact on your overall well-being is essential for maintaining optimal health. In this blog, we delve into the intricacies of the intricacies of hormones and explore their profound effects on the body.

I remember someone pointing out that even by anti-fairy standards, Irep's cube shape was unusual, and that it might have something to do with Anti-Wanda craving/eating rectangular objects all throughout her pregnancy lmao. And even if he can change his head shape- I'm assuming that changing his name to Irep specifically to match Peri was also a choice and he's just really committed to the bit.

But I do hope he comes back, if for no other reason than I'm fairly certain they were on good terms by the end of the original series; or at least, Peri didn't hate Irep, and was actively trying to befriend him. Did they pull a Hazel and Dev and that friendship only lasted until Irep got jealous of Peri again and then the cycle just. Continued infinitely. Why is Peri gloating and laughing in Irep's face these days.

Like I don't think Irep has really changed through the years, but Peri definitely has and it's clearly impacted their relationship.

I just wanna applaud those last few paragraphs because you helped out to words another thing I was thinking about — Peri grew up, and he looks it. Irep hasn’t, if anything he’s gotten less mature. Him still looking like his infant self could be a reflection of that, either by the writers out of universe or as a subconscious manifestation in universe (or, yeah, it could be all those couch cushions lol)

He did specifically call Peri’s name change irritating, so I’m imagining there’s some bitterness on his part at least

I do desperately hope that if we get a season 2, we get something to fill the gap between Irep and Peri’s infancy and adulthood — a flashback, some sort if magic hijinx, even an off hand comment. Outside of their parents, they are each other’s most long lasting relationships, and there was some serious growth by the end of the original series for both of them

When Cosmo and Wanda said to Dev that Peri was waiting for him to call and that he thought they were just “on a break,” it made me wonder if something similar happened between him and Irep — like at some point, they had their own falling out (possibly closer to what Dev and Hazel went through throughout the series’s than Peri and Dev), and Peri just Waited. He waited for Irep to cool down, to call. He put in so much work to befriend Irep, got to know and treasure him, and he was possibly in denial for the longest time about losing his friend (which, again, would just be another loss for him — he lost his brother, he ended up low/no contact with his parents for a while, and now he’s lost his first ever godkid. Having lost Irep would be another thing for him to deal with along the way)

That might even be why he acted so smug about Jorgen putting Irep in his place — it could’ve been a little bit of that years old hurt leaking out, combined with the fresh hurt of his godkid basically rejecting him. Maybe not the most mature way to handle things, but hey, Peri was going through it that episode

I would love to see them possibly reconcile, as a way to officially close the arc from the original series (but that would require them to handle the whole Letting Peri Almost Die From Magic Build Up thing. I give Dev a lot of leeway with that since he legit had no idea, but Irep had to know he was basically committing manslaughter, even if he didn’t think through the fact that if Peri dies, he probably also dies. Dude needs to at the very least give Peri an I’m Sorry for that one first)

You can be opposed to taking DIY hormones yourself, but don't treat trans people who DIY like they're stupid or they're uneducated. Oftentimes, people DIY because there are no other options for them. What you do about people who DIY is basic harm reduction - that means educating as many people as possible about the safest ways to monitor hormone levels, how to inject safely if they're taking injectable hormones, teaching people about common signs of hormone imbalance, among other things.

DIY hormones already have risks, and people who DIY know that. The least you can do is not shame them or treat them like they're stupid because they DIY. Again, people will often DIY as a last resort because trans healthcare is rapidly being targeted.

guys it hurts me a little to know that class of 09 it's known for being "the game for the lesbians/wlw gang" but sbn3 is enough of an idiot to put wlw couples in the game as a comedic factor and not for representation and huhh, it's weird to know that

also impopular opinion as a bi girly, aricole it's not that good, ari didn't deserve that miserable human being called nicole.

I was thinking about 1234ji being a hormonal mess. Obviously they didn't get it from Judge, but from whom then?

Sora, the answer is Sora.

Maybe Sanji reacts this way thanks to Zeff's influence, but what about his brothers? They have all been seen to have heart eyes and drool or act silly when seeing a cute girl (Yonji).

So it's not just Sanji's thing. There are many things that a child can inherit from his or their parents genetically and attitudes are one of them.

I don't see Judge being a hormonal mess, he was probably bitter all his life. But I totally see Sora doing it. I know less about Sora than Judge, but doesn't matter, that woman drooled and had heart eyes when she saw someone attractive.

124ji must have very little of Sora, but I want to believe that they have attitudes that are similar to those his mother had, maybe not kindness, but other things, no matter how small.

The Lightning Thief, in a nutshell:

Percy: I hate Annabeth

Annabeth: I hate Percy

Grover, in the corner as a 20 something year old: Oh golly the roads….

…

Percy: Nevermind I like Annabeth

Annabeth: Yeah I liked him the whole time too

Grover: *confused goat noises*

The worst part about reading in a genre where you have low expectations (in this case, Christian historical fiction) is that when a book impresses you, you have no idea if it's actually good or if you're just overly impressed because it was a fraction of a degree better than the usual garbage.

Listen, If 16 year old me, who was obsessed with skinny emo boys that were so thin their veins bulged out of their arms, knew that this is what I found attractive on a carnal level now, she would have a brain aneurysm

Fuck I hate being an adult. I need a more adult adult to help with the volatile emotional situation.

i love how every single month, around the same time, i think something cataclysmic is happening to my mental health and then i realize it's my period. so i probably don't need to be researching like, ketamine clinics, bc i'm fine. every single month this happens. like clockwork, i am gripped by panic over how depressed i suddenly feel. it's routine! and yet i never fucking remember that.

On the topic of hormones, I love trans men, transmasculine people, abinary, multigender people, or whomever else who takes estrogen and trans women, transfeminine, abinary, multigender people, or whomever else who takes testosterone.

There is no "right" way to transition. You don't have to be a perfectly binary, gender conforming trans person in order to take hormones. We all have different levels of estrogen and testosterone, and that means women and nonbinary people don't have to have estrogen-dominant systems and men and nonbinary people don't have to have testosterone-dominant systems. Do what sparks joy and if it's shit, hit the bricks!
