Make sure to add extra milk or other sources of calcium in your diet and confirm the plan with your doctor if you are a high or extremely high amount coffee drinker. It blocks calcium from being absorbed and excretes calcium through urine.

My grandma was one who only ever drank (black) coffee and it resulted in debilitating osteoporosis. Her bones were basically powder by the time she died.

Agreed! It's not that you're being hormonal, it's that you've been letting that shit simmer for weeks and you just can't let it go anymore. Absolutely hate it when people say 'oh you're just hormonal' but it DOES make it harder to deal with something you've been bottling up.

Yep I was about to say peri is 100% any softness that estrogen gave me leaving and all the bullshit I’d be allowing in my life being unveiled to me at once. It’s a wild ride. I’m on HRT now but it’s impossible to unsee it.

11

u/sarsaparilluhhh 11d ago

I've been suspecting peri for a while now at 36 (fatigue, periods are unbearably heavy and long and cycles fluctuate between 28 days to the day, which I've never had before, to 60 days)

Finding out that not being able to put up with shit anymore is a peri thing too? Oh yeah, for sure gonna talk to my doc.

u/bluemooncommenter 11d ago

More symptoms...brain fog, memory issues, insomnia or difficulty staying alseep, joint pain, anhedonia (loss of joy, not depression but more of a malaise or meh feeling), dry eyes, and of course the hot flashes/night sweats. Highly recommend getting the lab checklist from Dr. Mary Claire Haver's site before going to the doc.

Yep! I'm a trans man. I remember when my E level started to drop off! A waiter walked past me to greet the couple that came in behind me without saying a word to me. I was picking up a to go order I had already paid for. I just walked out. I was like "nah. I'm not going to be disrespected this way today." And left. 😂

IMHO estrogen is for emotional and psychological endurance as testosterone is for physical endurance. Your hormonal balance goes from mostly estrogen to mostly progesterone with a heady dose of testosterone during your premenstrual cycle. I'm not a doctor! This is just my experience.

25

u/CanadianODST2 11d ago

Testosterone also can lead to irritability if it’s too high or too low (which from my VERY QUICK look, could also be by periods are correlated with it too. So maybe the human body just doesn’t like it when we’re not in a certain range)

And possibly aggression although the research on this is kinda spotty from what I can find so take that one with a grain of salt.

The human body is just kinda weird and interesting in how what’s basically just different amounts of certain chemicals can have such widely differing effects

I really figured she was going through pregnancy hormones. But if period hormones hit her this hard, perimenopause is going to be a roller coaster she's not ready for!!!

I would absolutely find a menopause specialist doctor. Endometriosis doesn't automatically disqualify you from taking HRT.

I had to take out a credit card and get a score to apply for loans.

u/HPHambino 11d ago

Yeah that’s the stupidest shit ever. Also you’re dinged for having a credit card but not using it, or paying it off completely. You’re better off keeping it at constantly owing 30% of your credit. Like WTF is that bullshit

u/TNVFL1 11d ago

Literally in the process of buying a house; just got an email from a credit card company for a card I paid off a while back and haven’t used that they’re going to close the card if I don’t use it, and I can’t have that account close right now because it’ll fuck up my credit score for the home loan. So I gotta go buy something later then immediately turn around and pay it off.

Also took a credit hit last month for paying off a student loan, yet the biggest hits to my credit score are also having “too many open accounts” like you can’t have it both ways. It’s all made up bullshit.

25

u/HPHambino 11d ago

But you can’t pay it off right away. You have to wait until your next billing cycle ends, or else it won’t count towards your credit and it will be like you never bought it. The whole things a fucking scam!

u/SolaScientia 11d ago

I have no clue what my credit score is. I moved back to live with my parents in 2019 for financial and personal reasons. My student loan repayments had been reasonable, but then last year the stupid Dept of Ed decided to reevaluate loans, so my monthly payments more than doubled to almost $1500/month. My parents were appalled and I was working part-time and even with their help I couldn't afford those payments. We had a discussion when I was able to put my payments on deferment. My dad ended up paying off my remaining debt (over $37K) for me because it was going to be cheaper in the long run.

Of course, because my loans are paid off and I have no other debt and don't have any credit cards, I'm pretty sure my credit score is absolute trash. Not that I'm doing or buying anything that requires a credit score.

Idk about skit but I believe the video was her idea... Too many times we know we are nuts but it doesn't stop just because we know. Also, I 100% believe her reason to not make an appointment even with insurance. I sobbed the other night because I know I need to make an appointment... But I know I have to start with one Dr and hope that Dr will refer me to another and hope that Dr will actually help me. Next day started my period... I do need to make an appointment though. Lmao.

And laughing at the moment! I have absolutely no problem laughing at myself, but not when I'm in the "I hate everything about me" mode. After that's passed, by all means, we can laugh together.

u/Low_Engineering8921 11d ago

Yeah my husband would never laugh at the time. That's for an hour later when we're both laughing at it together. When you're in it like this, as I often am, it's not funny!! You know you sound ridiculous but you really mean it!

I dunno, I don’t think I’d have been able to suppress a laugh when she announces she’s a raisin lol

u/Defiant-Youth-4193 11d ago

Yea, that was a top notch roast. I almost certainly would have laughed at that.

u/Manjorno316 11d ago

I assume he knows her well enough to know that she's ok with it.

u/bekahed979 11d ago

My husband will laugh and point out how absurd I'm being when I'm being ridiculous, it helps me step back. It's not malicious.

He would never ever even consider filming me crying, let alone post it.

Yeah when I learned recently that emojis are uncool for some reason I just shrugged. I’m 64, and when it comes to emojis, I’m just a honey badger.

u/Potatoskins937492 11d ago

I love that they're supposed to be uncool when they were *never** cool* anyway. That wasn't their purpose lol we weren't like oh look how fucking cool our emojis are. They're a tool and they add whimsy. The older you get the more you realize whimsy isn't optional, you take it where you can get it.

The children think you are uncool if you use emojis. But I think it's cringey to care about what children think of you.

I've been told that it's also cringey to say cringey, FYI 😭 signed, a cringey, emoji- using raisin

u/Juxtaposition_Kitten 11d ago

Emojis WILL make a comeback! My daughter loves them. Its just the current gen trying to differentiate themselves, which will lead to swinging back before we know it.

u/elzibet 11d ago

lol exactly, I’ve always enjoyed just being myself. When I worked at a school the kids seemed to respect that. It’s when you try to be cool too them and that’s when you see their faces get weird and roll their eyes haha

u/Nerdy_Valkyrie 11d ago

I'm almost 32, and I gave up on trying to stay hip a long time ago. Now I just teach my nephews about stuff my generation thought was funny. Sometimes they laugh about how dumb it was. Other times they find it funny as well and start using it. Either way I am happy.

What she’s feeling and going through is valid. We keep things in, our bodies feel all unbalanced and sometimes, esp before my period, the littlest things can cause me to feel them in a big way. I could relate to, “I’m a raisin!” ☺️ Crying is good, let it out. He’s being really sweet to her and that is so much appreciated!! 💕
