Oh, okay! Thank you a lot!

Hi! Thank you so much! Basically I think I need ways to recognize that my friends (and everyone I know, really) are still my friends, when they say something homophobic or something else I don't agree with at all and makes me very disheartened, like, how could you :( , a person I like so much, say t...

Thank you!! It does make my vagina a bit sore.

Yes, I will consider changing the cup again to a longer one. Would the cup being almost as long as my vagina be okay? As long as the stem isn't out. I'll also try the folds!

Hi! Thank you! I don't try to insert my cup that high, but after a few hours it is right up near my cervix so it is very hard to get out! Is there any way I can stop that from happening? Or is it just my muscles? I also wanted to make sure, the maximum time you can keep a cup in is 12 hours, right? ...

Oh, okay!! Thank you so much, it helped a lot!

Hi! Thank you! I live in India, and we don't use the tap water for things like drinking, I don't know the exact reasons why you don't consume it, but I read that the water treatment plants aren't clean, I couldn't find other sources (although we do use it to wash the dishes, hmm. :shock: ). So can I...

Yes, that helps so much!!! Thank you.

Hi! Thank you! I found my vaginal canal, because the location was right and my finger came into a cool passageway. However, there were some things I found weird too, which made me feel like I was putting my finger in wrong! I want to make sure I did it right before I try inserting a menstrual cup fo...

Yes, that makes sense!! I will definitely try all those and come back if I have more questions, thank you a lot.

Thank you. I should get a mirror! And I had forgotten where that article was!! The cervix is at the end of the vaginal canal, so if you're finding that the tip of your finger touches something and can't go any further, that's probably your cervix! There is nothing between the vaginal opening and the...

Hi! Just a thinking aloud, but can someone please answer :D 😅: I did a first try finding my cervix, I saw lots of diagrams and got a mental picture of where everything is, but when I put a finger in, every part just felt the same and I couldn't identify anything! e.g. I thought I would find my inner...

Whoo! Thank you! I should be completely successful in switching to cups now!

Yes, I will see if I need lube for cups or not. Thank you for the notes about TSS and period shame. <3

Oh!! Thank you so much! Every sentence helped a lot. I would have forgotten to take into account cervical position changing. A few questions: Coconut oil can be used for lubing, right? Should I not be doing major things like switching to cups if I don't have access to basic equipment for going into ...

hii!! Thank you! I want to find my cervix and find out if it is "low" or "high". (for a menstrual cup) I will be too excited while doing this new thing (putting my finger in my vagina) and nervous too, so I really think it will be hard for me to do it; how do I relax? The website...

yes.

Hi! Thank you! I used the wrong words! He actually is part of our friend group and we meet a few times a week, although me and him have almost zero one-to-one interaction. I don't think there is any way I can meet him even less, unfortunately. I agree that it will fade although I don't at all think ...

Hi! Thank you! Sorry, I really need help logically sorting out my romantic/physical attraction feelings for a person I know. I don't have anyone in my life who can take the time to help me well! This is taking up too much mind-space and I don't think it is worth it at all, especially since I have to...

Thank you so much!!! For the support, and telling me I should wear what I want.
I feel much better. I appreciated all the points you guys made.

Thank you, this gave me many things to think about! Can I talk about each thing you said here? If the adults in your life aren't open to debate and discussion, and if there's no chance of your being physically/emotionally/financially at risk if you don't listen to them, then I'd suggest just riding ...

I don't like the way my parents don't want me wearing clothes they think are "short". My father implies that to have males not look at me sexually, I should wear clothes that don't show "too much" skin. For example once when I wore a dress they didn't agree with, my father said &...

Okay. I understand what you are saying! Thanks for those possible reasons, I see that it was not a bad thing my sister didn't want to bring up their coming out again.

Hello, I'm sorry, another question from me I just wanted to share that I asked my sibling if "you want to talk again to our parents about your coming out", and they said "Er, no." Hehe, so that is the end of it! I'm not going to ask them again. But now I'm thinking "how are ...

Hi! Yes, I am ready to have the conversation with my sibling. I think I will ask her now. I really appreciate this conversation starter. I will tell my sibling about it if she says yes for our parents' conversation. I really hope my parents are more receptive of my sister's identity if we talk to th...

Thank you so very much! I feel better about the situation. I understand we should talk to our parents about their opinion, soon, and not go along with it. I have not talked to my sibling and asked if she wants a final answer conversation. If she says yes, we will try to make sure our parents underst...

When my sibling came out as not-straight to our parents a few months ago, they did not have a negative reaction. Or a positive, "we love you, you're great whatever you are" reaction. My sibling and I are not sure our parents are okay with my sibling's identity. I think our parents' main th...
