I'm back on the pill. I have been on it for about a year. My primary reason for using it is to prevent pregnancy but it also work wonders for my period. My flow is naturally very heavy and the cramps the come along with it are unbearable 😩 I've had trouble with the pill in the past but the current combined pill I am on has been the best one for my body. I've tried the menstrual cup in the past but it's was a struggle as it kept leaking! Now that I am on a lighter flow, I think I'm going to have another go. I am really conscious of sanitary waste and this would be an excellent way to save money and protect the environment. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and experiences. The bloating you experienced sounds terrible! I'm sorry you had to go through that 😣 I glad you were able to find a solution! The yoga poses are great for bloating I agree! Again, thanks for the advice! 💕

Reading about period woes actually physically hurts me lol This CURSE sucks 😭 I'm so glad there's a pill that works for and with you! I have YET to experience recurring yeast infections _knock on wood_ so I'm hoping this pill continues to work with me 🤞 That's the same problem I had with the cup when I was off the pill!! It's tough because you can't just get a different size. I've only tried 2 different brands and so far I experienced leakage with both 🤷🏻‍♀️ I had to use them with a cloth panty liner. Thankfully that isn't the case when I'm on the pill. So yeah, try it now that your flow is lighter. I hope it works out! It was my pleasure talking about this in a video. I always thought feminine hygiene discussions were important! Thank you for watching and commenting, Mary!! Yeah, it was actually so scary for me when it first started. And when I experienced it again this year, I was in shock. It's so crazy how our monthly cycles can be so unforgiving 😪 But thankfully, we can make them at least tolerable with products and/or routines 😁

the disposable hot pack called mediheally patch is a new discovery for me. you can stick it to your cloth so you can have warm belly throughout the day.

Ahh yes! I've always seen that in my medicine cabinet 😆 Never thought about using it for this purpose. Thank you for the tip!
