Cycle Buddies 🥰

[Pinkllama12]

Hello, did anyone on here ovulate around the 16th-18th November and want to be cycle buddies, and ride out this wait together? 🥰

Just a quick update that period arrived today, at 9am on the dot on a Monday, as soon as I got into work 🙃 More painful than usual too! Sick of my body haha

Sorry to hear that! Especially that it's more painful than usual. Im on day 4 of it now and the pain has eased off at least but I'm still a bit too tired for a Monday. Hooe your day goes as smoothly as possible lovely.

Sorry I’d forgotten about this thread! Period came smack bang on time yesterday. My boobs are still sore so god only knows what’s happening with my body. On a positive note I have called to book a hycosy so one step closer to finding out if there’s a problem. I am thinking of going the IVF route anyway but it’s just so expensive.

So sorry there’s not more good news on the thread was hoping for some positives for everyone.

@LoopyLeela i have endometriosis and I get burning pain. I have to take naproxen as otherwise I am sick with the pain. TMI but it also really affects digestion so ovulation and period cause digestive distress (politely put!). Definitely get checked out if you suspect it. There’s a sheet online you can print off and take to the dr as they don’t often take it seriously. I have ADHD and there’s a greater chance of having endo if you have ADHD (no idea if you do but lots of people don’t know that)

@Chocolatecustardcreamsrule thank you for sharing that. I have heard one of the main symptoms is significant pain but I would say my pain tends not be be super strong, except sometimes it can be (not every cycle) it's more the type of pain if that makes sense..As I get the cramping many women experience in the uterus area, but more recently I've been thinking i usually get more widespread pain. Like deep in my pelvis and especially my lower back. And it is a burning. Again, although it's annoying and uncomfortable it isn't extreme pain. But it's making me think now, as I've heard that endo symptoms dont always match up with how bad it actually is inside. As in, some women have a lot of it and no pain, some have a little bit and loads of pain. Maybe I'm overthinking it but it does seem like something could be off for me. Luckily I don't seem to get upset digestion any time in my cycle. Sorry to hear that you experience that, it sounds reality difficult.
