OMG ME TOO
hopefully it happens before they're too shriveled to be helpful to anyone else, they're incredibly fertile and active and I don't appreciate it
every month they wreck my life, and every time I'm like, "some nice lady would love to have these parts," and I feel bad for wishing them away
I would donate them ~~tomorrow~~ ~~yesterday~~ 15 years ago if I could
Ahh don't feel bad about wanting them gone. By the time transplants become really common, we probably won't be that far off from growing them in space from your own cells anyway!
edit: Also it's your body! It's your right to do what you wish with it!
many doctors won’t go along with that if seeking a more permanent solution, they say you’ll change your mind
heck, have had trans masc friends straight up tell doctors they need to get rid of the original plumbing to feel better and not want to self harm and still get told nothing can be done
body autonomy still has a ways to go
Right, I meant human right rather than legal right. The legal rights are backwards
The amount of bullshit people need to go through to get that plumbing removed is an actual condemnation of this society, shit is awful
Big same, wish I could have donated them a long time ago, except mine are fucked now and are now a constant threat to my health. Doctors still won't remove them even though they've put me in the ER a few times. Hope you're feeling better soon!
Unlimited removal upon your ovaries & uterus
You shouldn't feel bad just cause someone else would want em. It would be rad to donate them, but failing that, uncritical support to you in your heroic struggle against internal organs you do not want.
❤️
have to tell you that you're one of my favorite people around here, and your unwavering support means the world ❤️❤️❤️ thank you.
you've been so kind across so many threads, to me and so many others, and you're just a wonderful jewel that deserves appreciation 🥰

Haha I've been experiencing the same thing recently. Weirdest menstrual cycle ever for the past few months, and in my case I know it isn't pregnancy. Can't wait to get some form of birth control so I can stop living in dread every month lol.
Sorry if this is weird, I'm not really a good communicator, but like what can someone who doesn't have a menstrual cycle say/do/consider to make it easier on someone who does when they're going through it? I feel bad for my friends who have to deal with it, but ngl I'm pretty stupid
Be patient and ask if they need anything, like meds or food or someone to talk to. It's different for everyone, so keep in mind they will have different needs. Just check on them like you would any friend and be kind. For some it can be very debilitating and scary depending on their circumstances. Also it's not stupid to ask how to be a better friend/person, it's nice that you even asked imo!
Thanks for the advice, things are getting kinda hard right now but I try to do my best to make things easier for my friends.
Wait, girls pee? Does that mean that they also poo? Internet, is this true?
I feel you, my cycle was delayed like a full week this month due to stress and it scared me a ton :( I don't have the pregnancy concern because lesbian but I was so worried that something else was going wrong in my body. I'm unfortunately underweight due to health issues and I just started a new medical elimination diet, and I was terrified that I wasn't managing to eat enough to get my period.
She finally came, thank goodness, but I really couldn't tell what was going on with my body and what my hormones were doing at all for a while there and I hate that. I am still learning to sense all aspects of my monthly cycle because for the last two years I'm finally having it again after being on continuous birth control for a decade. I like the feeling of being in alignment with my body but man do I wish I could stress less about it.
duuuuuude, me too
Like, I just want to be in alignment with what my junk thinks I should be doing, because that's probably (maybe?) the healthy impulse, but it's so hard to predict/deal with/be in alignment with.
