| yeah, I think 18-20 is fairly common for ovulation? ...and then of course I think of horse breeding and like "yeah you want to start at 20 because some mares go at 22-25 and others hold to between 30 and 40" XD |

| Oof Red that's rough. Honestly the worst part is the cramping, but after 1-2 hours you don't even know it's there. Although if you're active make sure they cut and turn the strings so your partner isn't poked 😠they can take a bit to soften and not stab lol |

| catalina , for me , i just make sure i drink alot of water, min a gallon a day, which seems like alot but honestly you get used to it, i also drink pure cranberry juice, im more prone during the summer because i tend to forget to drink water , but ill water down the juice and add a few drops of mio in it to sweetened it a little since cranberry juice can be tart / bitter . i also take cranberry supplements and eat alot of fruit in general |

| lol! Yeah there's lots of room in there 😂 when I did IVF my ovaries were full of around 20 15-20cm follicles each. Mt pelvis felt very full |

| Dimmy, I’ve heard some horror stories and the procedure itself seems very invasive and just not pleasant to me. Had my first Pap smear last week and I cried the whole time 🥲 |

| Catalina, I take cranberry pills everyday and then I use the Ural sachets when I have bad symptoms. Usually clears within a day or two |

| yeah, I was like "...excuse me??? are you fr??" because. how??? I guess there's just that much open space in your body cavity, *I guess*! O_o |

| Omg Gladius that's terrible! My first one they said was golf ball size. I can't imagine any bigger! |

| Question for people who get UTIs often, what do you do to prevent? Or are you still figuring that out? |
| Red Hill Hollow |
| That’s great to hear Dimmy :) I’ve been thinking of getting one but I’ve been too scared. |

| I once had a tennis ball sized cyst, according to the doc who imaged it... woke up to go to work, staggered to the floor because it felt like I was literally being stabbed. hubby had to call the nurse line and take me to the ER |

| Mellow, yucky, kidney infections are no fun. But yeah it’s worth investigating, especially if you’re getting chronic uti symptoms. Utis are the worst tho |

| I remember when my mom took me to the ER for it 😂😂 my ovary wasn't twisted or hurting anymore and she was all "you better not be faking this or I'm going to be pissed" lol. Nope, wasn't faking 😠|

| I had the IUD for 3? Years. It stopped all periods and cysts. I had another one put in after having my first baby, and had it taken out to transfer this current baby lol but yes the IUD helped a lot |
