TMIish

[philstar22]

How do you deal with PMS, hormones, and vagina pain? I'm freezing (I always get cold before and during period), I hurt, I'm in a bad mood and miserable. I don't even have a uterus left. All I have is one ovary. How is it that I still have this many hormone issues?

I took a hot bath. I drank alcohol, which helped relax me a bit. I've got a heating pad on my vagina. But it still hurts a lot. I'm currently not taking ibuprofen since there is a chance I could be allergic.

So I'm looking for suggestions. What do other women do?

Warm to hot drinks.

Stretches and positions that open up the hips and lower back or relax the pelvic floor, focusing on relaxing into the stretch rather than pushing it. Child pose, frog pose, and corpse pose come to mind. Butterfly stretch lying on the back with supports underneath the legs. Sometimes lying on an incline made from pillows or blankets, as well.

Though (also possible tmi), I’ve had to go to pelvic floor therapy in the past and still do home care - and gentle dilator use has done a lot for pain alleviation for me.

I started doing pelvic floor therapy, but sadly I can't afford the co-pays right now. I need a full time job badly. I have the stuff the therapist had me buy, but right now I'm too sore down there to try anything. I'm at a can't even touch myself on the outside level of pain.

Ayrt - I’m sorry - that’s frustrating.

If you’ve done slow “belly breaths” in PT and it’s not too painful, lying on the back or in a modified above position and doing those may be something to try?

Sometimes if I can’t lie down (at work or commuting) or just can’t deal with doing anything else, sitting on a chair on a cushion or folded towel and just feeling the “sit bones” relaxing to a more open position has also helped.

how do you have periods w/o a uterus? mine stopped dead when I had my hysterectomy

Re: TMIish

[philstar22]

No period in terms of blood. But I still cycle in terms of estrogen and stuff because I still have one ovary and still have all the endometrial tissue that is covering my bladder (which is the endometriosis which is why I had the hysterectomy in the first place). So I only cramp a little, but I still PMS and still get vagina pain.

oh, how awful.
would potassium or med pot help?

Re: TMIish

[philstar22]

Hmmmm. Haven't tried potassium. I should look into that. I live in Texas, sadly. So pot is out unless I find a job in a state that allows it.

have you talked to your doctor about the birth control pill? if you're able to take it, i've heard the pill can help women with menopause so maybe it can help with other hormone issues.
