Endometriosis

  Endometriosis is a lonely condition that can be made worse by people who are trying to be helpful but are saying some of the strangest things.  We know that they are just trying to be helpful but when we are in pain sometimes things people say just make us snap which really affects our relationships and while we try not to get upset it isn’t always easy so I thought I would make a list of 10 things not to say to an endometriosis suffer.  Just take some pain killers and get over it.  But you don’t look sick.  At least it’s not…. Have you tried hot water bottle/ibuprofen/yoga/keto? When will you start trying for children.  Didn’t surgery cure you? I get cramps too.  You’re too young to be sick Mind over matter just think positively.  My daughter, friend. etc has that and she's fine There are so many more but those are the ones that really get to me.  Let me know which you hate hearing the most in the comments. 

 Reusable period products can save you so much money if you are willing to give them a try.  I’m the sort of person who has to wear maternity pads every period because of how much I bleed but that leads to horrible pad rash for me so I decided to give reusable products a go and I don’t think I’ll ever go back.  Now I use period underwear and a mensual cup and I still have to use maternity pads on my heaviest day but the rest of my cycle I use my reusable products.  I’m have four pairs of period underwear from three different brands all of them say they are super flow (4 tampons worth) which isn’t the greatest. I have Teo from the same brand (mint brand) and wear them on my first and last day of my period. I use my u by Kotex period underwear on day two and my libra on day four. If I’m going out instead of tampons I’ll insert my period cup.  I know reusable products aren’t for everyone but I would spend so much money on pads to go through them super fast so I find reusables the best thi
