Hailey s hideaway vagina

i know i’ve been commenting on here a lot but i was wondering for people who get paper cut like outbreaks do they heal within 2 days? Or does anyone who’s researched a lot about herpes know? Because i had a paper cut that i noticed saturday and healed by the time it was monday before i could go try to get a swab i’m on valtrex but i had an oral ob two weeks ago and it healed within two weeks.The tiny minor cut i had healed within two days to quick tbh🥲i was putting some ad ointment on it to stop the irritation mostly but it didn’t scab over or anything the paper cut obs on the vagina ever scab anyways (for context since i’ve had my oral ob i’ve been taking valtrex to suppress the infection so it’s gonna be two 1/2 weeks of me taking valtrex.I see my gyno thrusday and will voice my concerns to her)

This isn’t exactly snark about Hailey, but I think many will agree. The quality of Justin’s music has dropped a lot since he married Hailey. Sure, he always made cookie-cutter pop songs, but they were good songs in my opinion. I can't imagine Justin putting out a track as bad as “Yummy” back in 2016; even his most loyal fans admit that song is trash! "Changes" was a confusing mess with no clear direction, and he seemed desperate to sell it. "Justice" is better, but it still doesn't compare to some of his best work like "Journals" and "Purpose." To me, his music shows he’s not really into Hailey. No one truly passionate about their marriage would write such lazy and underwhelming songs. I recommend listening to "Journals," his best work, to see that he can actually write good love songs, just not about ms swimfan baldloose

Okay so some background info: I broke up with my boyfriend of 1 year a month ago in April. March 30th was the last time i saw him and we had unprotected sex that day where I also took a plan b the same day. Exactly a week after on April 6th i started spot bleeding but it was a little heavier than I thought. I had to wear a panty liner and bled through those and used a real pad like the last 2 or so days. The spot bleeding went on for about 3-5 days I would guess. I thought on my period app i was supposed to get my period April 20th so I just thought I’d wait until then. I never ended up getting my period in April. I started thinking that maybe the spot bleeding on April 6th was actually my period forced to come early. So after I missed my period April 20th I took 3 pregnancy tests within the next 3 weeks which was over 21 days after I took the pill and had unprotected sex. Each of those tests a week apart were negative. I thought I was fine and am still currently waiting to get my period for May.
Flash forward to last night, I ended up having unprotected sex multiple times with an ex I used to date and not the same guy I had just broken up with. When I was on top of him having sex he came pretty quick but I didn’t notice. He pulled me up I think so he wouldn’t cum inside of me but I sat back down and had his cum on the outside of my vagina and the outskirts near my leg. I was obviously freaked out because of sitting in the semen but he said he pulled out so it didn’t go all the way in and just on the outside because I sat down. Anyways after the sex I wiped the cum off of me and he fingered me too which I don’t know if that was risky either since I already wiped it off. I ended up taking another plan b today since my last one in march. I still haven’t got my period yet for May or at all since the first plan b I took and now I am scared it’s going to screw my period up even more from taking a second pill today. I am not on birth control either and I trust both men to pull out which is why I choose to have unprotected sex. But that is not relevant to the question - do you think after having 3 negative pregnancy tests from my most recent boyfriend in April could mean I’m pregnant? and also, do you think from what happened last night and sitting in the semen even after taking plan b could give me a high risk of pregnancy? If anyone can give any insight or advice to when I should test again/explore options please let me know!!!!

Over the weekend last week I was really going through a tough time because I lost my cousin to a gun. It really messed me up but on saturday night i saw a promo for this show while babysitting and it got me thinking about watching it. watching the first episode put a smile on my face for the first time in a while. This show helped me become the person who i was before finding out about my cousin. It’s sentimental to me now because i have never laughed at anything or related to anything other than this show in a long time. i like this show because it can help put a smile on your face even during your lowest moments. i have about 5 episodes left on disney plus and im really upset about it not just because im also waiting on the rest of the season to come out on Disney plus but because I don’t want this story to end at all so im really hoping for a season 2.
so im just curious why do all of you like the show so much? what does this show bring to you that makes it so enjoyable?

I’ve been celibate for a few years now for feeling mostly jaded about love and feeling awful at sex. I would still masturbate but soon they didn’t work because I had problems with orgasms.
I looked for advice and they suggested sex toys so for my birthday I finally bit the bullet and bought tons of toys mostly vibrators and two dildos. At first the vibrators kind of helped but in the end it still didn’t work out for me orgasming so finally I decided to try the dildo and I couldn’t fully insert them without feeling pain like I was hitting the wall and what I could fit felt uncomfortable. After doing research I self diagnosed myself with vaginismus. At first I felt relief knowing there was something actually wrong with me and then I filled up with dread.
I remember the last thing my ex said about the last time we had sex about me being too tight and at first I thought he was trying to make me feel better. Now I see he was right and from the research I’ve done about men with vaginismus partners I’m horrified. They’ve describe it as painful and unbearable and now I understand why things probably never worked out with us.
I used to joke to my friends that my vagina was haunted or broken for why I stopped dating but not it feels like that’s actually the case.
There’s this whole world of love sex and pleasure out there and I feel like I’ll never get to enjoy that the way others will and I just feel like giving up entirely.

Been going through this same song and dance for 8 years. 2 to 4 years in it was fairly easy to get intimate with my husband because there was still hope. Now 5 years till now my libido has absolutely tanked. PCOS already naturally screws with my libido as it is. My husband has a healthy libido. However I’m not able to just get in the mood like he does. I only ever want sex for maybe two or three days when I’m supposed to be ovulating and my body actually craves it but after that, if he don’t mention it I wouldn’t even think about it. This is mostly because I’ve programmed myself to not think about sex so much because I remember that sex is supposed to make babies and ours just doesn’t…….there are times I can’t climax because I’ll be so far in my head trying to disassociate sex from reproduction. A lot of times my husband will notice I’m not really “present” during intimacy and he’ll stop. But I can tell this really bothers him. He’s sad that we can’t have children either, but it obviously doesn’t affect his libido at all. Today I finally had to tell him I’m not withholding sex just because I’m tired or anything to do with him. I just can’t disassociate sometimes. Then I get really sad because life should not even be like this at all. He does not deserve this.
I miss the days where I wasn’t worried about starting a family and I just had sex just because I wanted it and at the time the only reason (or at least what I thought was the reason) I wasn’t getting pregnant was because I was on birth control.
I feel useless. Like I’m ust free vagina and help with bills and nothing more.

By popular demand, I guess...
I was kinda just being a smart-ass, but some of you wanted more so here it is: epilogues for every NPC as if they didn't continue to travel with Gorion's Ward and instead just decided to live their own life. Obviously, there are some implied alignment changes here.
This turned out to be longer than I expected and I kinda just threw it all together while I was working. Please excuse any typos or sloppy writing.
I want to apologize for one thing, though. Viconia's epilogue really only works if GW is a male, so I had to make that assumption for the sake of her story. If it matters any, I easily play just as many female GWs as I do male GWs. In fact, I probably play more female GWs because I don't care for the romances, frequently play the canon party, and want to nip the lame Jah romance in the bud.
But, to have them all in one place, I included my original smart-ass epilogues with the additional ones I created. Now, every character from BG1 and BG2 has an epilogue. I don't have the EE characters, though, because I play the original games and don't really know them.
So, just for funsies, which one is your favorite and why?
"Anomen continued to wait at the Copper Coronet for a party of adventurers willing to travel with him. Maybe it was the grating sound of his voice, or perhaps the way he leered at women, but he continued to remain alone. Eventually, he needed to find work to make ends meet. With Gorion's Ward having disbanded the slave traders and pit fights, Hendak had to find a new form of entertainment for the patrons. As such, he invented an all male review ladies night, and Anomen found work as a 'dancer'. He left the Most Noble Order of the Radiant Heart to join the less noble order of the pole. He also renounced his faith to Helm and instead allied himself with Waukeen because if you wanna see some groin, you gotta have some coin."
"Despite Gorion's Ward clearing the trolls from her keep, Nalia was not able to reclaim her lands and instead lost her estate to Lord Roenall. The lord offered to let her retain residence in her family's ancestral home, but only in exchange for her hand in marriage. Nalia found the proposition to be repugnant. Instead, she salvaged whatever wealth she could from her family's keep and moved to Athkatla to start a new life. She no longer helped the less fortunate, as she was now among their numbers and had her own problems. Nalia's lack of any practical skills combined with her sense of entitlement sent her into a life of failure followed by drinking and debauchery. She now spends more time back at the Copper Coronet than anywhere else. It is hard to say where she squanders her wealth more, the alcohol, or on the dancers during Ladies Night."
"After the incident with the Planar Sphere, Valygar was finally free of his past, could retire to his cabin, and pursue his true passion: writing. Ironically, the only inspiration he found ended up stemming from his family's checkered past. Valygar's only works that even had middling success were 'Tuesdays with Lavok' and 'Dude, Where's My Planar Sphere', with the latter being made into a production at the Five Flagoons Theater."
"Haer'Dalis continued to work as a performer at the Five Flagoons Theater. Unfortunately, it struggled due to poor management. It might have turned out better if an outside agent with fresh ideas had stepped in, but Gorion's Ward had better things to do than be a bard. While the work was generally steady, the returns were not great and the material was a little low-brow for Haer'Dalis' liking. The tiefling realized he reached rock bottom when he was cast as the lead in a play about a buffoon who apparently lost a plane-shifting apparatus the size of a small castle and had to find it before his parents returned from Neverwinter. After the opening night, he took his own life in his dressing room. His body was found the next morning with a note saying, 'Art is dead and I am art, so I shall join art in death.' Biff the Understudy stepped in for Haer'Dalis despite never having an opportunity to read the script. Nevertheless, the production was a resounding success and launched Biff's career to new heights."
“A heartbroken Garrick found work as a character actor at the Five Flagoons Theater, but eventually gained more success as a writer and director. He found it to be a mostly agreeable situation, aside from a tiefling primadonna who would constantly belittle his work and call it ”trite" and “drivel”. Fortunately, that situation worked itself out in time and Garrick found Biff to be much easier to direct. With the tiefling gone, his ideas had room to grow. He invented a new kind of love story, one where the protagonist doesn't always get the girl at the end but the journey to that ending would be quite amusing. He labeled this genre “the Comedy of Romance” and the works were mostly based on his own life. His plays were quite popular among the commoners, with his top selling shows being 'Sleepless in Saradush', 'Silverymoon Linings Playbook', and 'Crazy Rich Aasimars'. He eventually fully transitioned off the stage into the director's chair. By the peak of his fame, he was married to none other than Queen Ellesime."
“Aerie continued to work at the circus and WOULD NOT SHUT UP ABOUT HER DAMN WINGS. Even Quayle eventually grew sick of hearing about it. This put strain on their relationship. Things took a turn for the better when Ribald Barterman acquired a new curiosity for his shop. It was a magical ring which he sold to Quayle at a reduced rate out of sympathy. This ”treasure" was actually a cursed Ring of Deafness, which Quayle found to be anything but a curse and wore it for the rest of his days."
“Xzar and Montaron were both slain at the hands of the Athkatla Harpers, but this is actually where their story begins. Xzar, as he had done so many times before, had a backup plan of an arcane nature should death befall either he or the halfling. Their mortal essences were pulled to a pocket plane he created. There they could be channeled into restored bodies cloned at his estate. With this particular round of ritual, Xzar had incidentally made a slight error in the incantation and the two found themselves in a time suspended state in Xzar's pocket plane. It was only five minutes for the rest of the world, but it was fifty years for them. This turned out to be a pivot point in their relationship. Having only each other's company in this shadowy void, they were finally able to work out their feelings for each other. When they had returned to the prime material plane, they discovered their mutual animosity was replaced with love. Rather than pick up their life where they left off with the Zhentarim, they decided to pack it all in, moved to Bryn Shander, and start a bed and breakfast. Montaron rediscovered his halfling roots and love for the culinary arts while Xzar would perform seances to connect guests with their late loved ones. Scones and Bones became an overnight success and was consistently listed as a “must see” in Volo's travel guides. In their golden years, the couple co-wrote a memoir of their journey, ‘Brokeback Montaron’, which is sold in bookstores everywhere."
“After briefly crossing paths with Gorion's Ward, Mazzy Fentan continued her crusade as a de facto halfling paladin. She eventually found herself petitioning for membership at the Most Noble Order of the Radiant Heart in Athkatla after she had singlehandedly saved a village from an ancient dracolich. Despite the extent of her virtue and accomplishment, her petition was denied on the basis that halflings could not possibly be real paladins. This inspired her next crusade, one to break down vocational barriers for all demihuman races. Why couldn't halflings be paladins or dwarves be wizards? And why did gnomes always have to be illusionists? It simply made no goddamn sense. She began to get traction with her quest when she attended lectures by the wizards of the (sword) coast in Candlekeep. With their help, she ushered Faerun into a new edition era where there would be no vocational barriers for adventurers based on their race. Soon, the world began to see roguish halflings that also venerated Helm, while tending to the wilds as a druid. Half-orc bards also studied as wizards while manifesting natural arcane abilities as sorcerers. Tiefling paladins took their crusades to the wilderness and served as rangers, while sidelining as clergy to Mystra. The world was now a liberated place, free to not make any goddamn sense in a myriad of new ways. At one point, Lady Mazzy Fentan of Trademeet (now formally a paladin) crossed paths with a dwarven shadowdancebard and in that moment she regretted everything. Seriously, just take a moment and picture that. It would look fucking ridiculous.”
“Yeslick's clanhome was flooded once again. Despondent and without options, he took work at a smithy in Baldur's Gate but never stopped dreaming of finding both a clan and a home. He found a way to bring this dream to life after a courageous halfling paladin broke down the barriers for, among other things, dwarves to be wizards. Yeslick had an idea. He studied magic diligently until he was able to cast two spells of great importance: Water Breathing and Permanence. He then searched the lands for other clanless dwarves who would be willing to try something new. With the new clan he formed, Yeslick permanently gave all his fellow clansman the ability to breath underwater. They then moved into the flooded Cloakwood Mines and built the first underwater dwarven stronghold. Using his arcane powers, Yeslick also developed the ability to speak with the marine life that shared this stronghold. And, with that, the clan Aquadwarf was born. At one point, Valygar visited and wrote a play based on Yeslick's story. However, he couldn't even get it to stage at the Five Flagoons Theater. The illustrious director Garrick was quoted as saying, “A hero that can breath underwater and talk to fish? Nobody would go for that!"
“Keldorn finally retired from the Most Noble Order of the Radiant Heart and looked forward to a much simpler life. He rekindled his marriage with Lady Maria and life seemed to improve. It was rather early on when the couple discovered that Maria had become pregnant again. It was also not long after that when Peony, the housekeeper, also became pregnant. Maria started to ask Keldorn about this, but Keldorn started to get defensive and asked, ”Hey, who's the Inquisitor here?" Then Keldorn started to do the math with her to track the conception of Maria's pregnancy. She certainly did not want him to get to the end of that equation, so she quickly changed the subject. She suggested getting a new maid, but Keldorn chastised her for abandoning someone in their time of need who had been like family for years. He forbade Peony's departure claiming that his god, Torm, would not stand for it. Maria then made a passive aggressive comment about Torm being the god of loyalty, but she was mostly just muttering under her breath to get the last word in. Eventually, both children were born and had probably the most awkward upbringing of anyone in Faerun."
“After Gorion's Ward helped Coran take down a wyvern, the rogue brought the beast's head back to the mayor of Beregost for the reward and accolades. He thought this put him in a position to be a hero of great renown and perhaps, just maybe, people would stop mocking him for his flashy attire and completely superfluous eye mask. They didn't. He only gained acceptance when he crossed paths with a ranger who seemed indifferent towards Coran's keen fashion sense. Coran traveled the Sword Coast with his ranger sidekick, righting the wrongs against the ‘little guy’ and taking the law into their own hands when needed. This partnership dissolved when he discovered that the ranger thought Coran was the sidekick. As if! Coran tried to correct the ranger, whose argument was, 'Really, man, if that outfit doesn't scream sidekick then I'm Elminster's twin brother.' The ranger was not related to Elminster and shared no resemblance.
“Kivan never was able to get his revenge on Tazok. Unbeknownst to him, that honor was taken by Gorion's Ward. His thirst for vengeance continued to eat away at him until he found himself in a bat infested cave in the wilderness. It was then he snapped. He turned the cave into his secret hideaway, put together a disguise and started wandering the sword coast looking for evil-doers to punish. He would leave his calling card wherever he saved the day, a token of a bat with longer ears like an elf. And bats already had rather long ears so these bat ears were almost comically obtrusive. Nevertheless, his deeds were generally appreciated and the people stared calling him Bat-elf. For a short spell, another elf tagged along with him and tried to help, but he was so flamboyantly dressed that one could pick his sidekick out of the shadows blindfolded. Kivan eventually had to send him on his way. Unfortunately, his vigilante crusade abruptly ended after receiving a cease and decist order from DC Comics. Kivan could fight both monster and marauder all day, but his 14 Constitution wouldn't hold up against a lawsuit for trademark infringement.”
“Skie was deeply affected by both the death of her brother and the assassination of her father. And yes, her father was actually murdered and didn't lol-jk back to life in some crappy DLC. In any event, through these traumas, she came to realize the puerility of what she thought was her brilliant criminal masterminding. Instead, she decided to settle down and live a more responsible life as an upstanding citizen of Baldur's Gate. She took the reins of her father's estate after his death and rose to prominence as one of the Grand Dukes of the city. She maintained her relationship with Eldoth for quite some time, inexplicably, as he refused to get a job because he didn't want to take attention from his band which he swore was going to make it. However, the bard spent most of the day either lounging at Skie’s estate or gambling away his allowance with games of three-dragon-ante at the Helm and Cloak. Eventually, inspired by the book “Men Are From Menzoberranzan, Women Are From Immilmar," she decided to call it quits with Eldoth and sent him packing. Shortly thereafter, she met a man who was nothing like Eldoth and they settled down together to start a family."
“Eldoth's dreams of being a world-famous musician fronting the greatest band in Faerun never reached fruition. This was partly because he didn't actually have a band and partly because he didn't have the talent to write music. Instead, he just had a lute he purchased at Lucky Aello's Discount Store that only had one A-string and was missing the E-string. Also, Eldoth could only play power chords and he couldn't really sing and play at the same time. Most of the time he would just strum a chord or two and then talk about what the song would do next, often describing a solo and half playing it on an ”air lute" (while he was still holding an actual lute, mind you) to give people the idea as to how the song would sound when it was finally written. Yeah, he was one of those guys. After Skie kicked him to the curb, he bounced between various barmaids who clearly had low self-esteem, but not low enough to keep him around for long. Eventually, he got one of them pregnant and was forced into a shotgun wedding by the barmaid's father. He now works in the kitchen at the same inn as his barmaid wife. She helps the customers up front and he cooks eggs in the back. Eldoth continues to tell himself that this experience will just provide inspiration for his music and that someday he was going to get the band back together."
“After being rescued by Gorion's Ward, Xan made his way to Baldur's Gate to regroup. He spent an inordinate amount of time beating himself up over his failures and trying to muster the gumption to continue his quest to unravel the political turmoil of the region. However, it took him months to get to this point, and by that time, Gorion's Ward already sorted out the problems in the region. Discovering this, he deemed himself a failure yet again and sunk into a deeper depression. He pulled himself out of it when he met a woman who lost most of her family to violent deaths during the iron crisis, yet she still kept herself together and became a local success in a few short years. Xan immediately fell in love with the recently single Skie Silvershield and began to court her. They eventually married and started a family. At Xan's insistence, and inspired by his wife's name, their two daughters were named Sunshine and Rainbow. Xan was a staunch supporter of his wife's career and stayed home to raise the kids. When they were older and needed less attending, he followed a new dream and became a motivational speaker.”
“Korgan had his revenge against his backstabbing crew and employer, but he felt...empty. It was done, but he felt no satisfaction. Disgruntled and disappointed, he decided to lose himself in his cups at the Copper Coronet. Even this did nothing to alleviate his malaise. One night, having passed out drunk in a peasant room at the Copper Coronet, he dreamt of that final fight but something was different. In the background of the battle, there was a glow coming from the door of a shack and he heard the whispering of a language that sounded like it was from Kara-Tur. When he woke the next morning, Korgan returned to the rooftop and found the shack from his dream. He knocked and was greeted by a priest of Illmater. Korgan told the priest of his dream and he was led into the backroom where he found a man from Kara-Tur infirm and huddled over a cup of tea. The priest explained that he had just reincarnated this man of the faith using a heart delivered by a passing adventurer. Korgan took this as a sign, converted to the faith, and the two paired up to help those in suffering as a result of the schemes of others. The tales of Korgan and Yoshimo were not only told in many of a tavern by the bards, but also collected in graphic serials that were popular among the children of Athkatla.”
“Ajantis' death sent him into an afterlife at Everwatch, the realm of Helm. For his honor and diligence, the devout knight was granted an audience with his patron. Ajantis then told Helm what utter bullshit the god was. I mean, c'mon, he's the god of protection, the Vigilant One, and he couldn't protect a group of knights from a dragon's cheap illusion spell that a mage even tried to dispel with True Sight? It was like Helm wasn't even trying. Helm was stunned by the confrontation but also had no valid defense. Ajantis called Helm to a trial that was mediated by Tyr. After careful deliberation, Tyr determined that Helm was sleeping on the job and the judgment was to demote him to a lesser deity. Now, Helm was the patron of guards, but not actual guards that ever see action, just the ceremonial ones whose weapons and armor are super shiny and probably not even real. Ajantis was then granted Helm's old portfolio and became a god that truly protected his followers.”
“Viconia left Athkatla's government district perplexed. She was rescued from burning at the stake by Gorion's Ward and then immediately dismissed. She found this to be unusual behavior for a male. She was accustomed to men either trying to bed her or kill her, but this casual indifference was completely new. Viconia came to be obsessed with Gorion's Ward from a distance. She spiraled into a fantasy where the two of them had a future together. It was pretty bad. There were some extremely embarrassing vision boards involved and that wasn't even the worst of it. When her mania reached critical mass, her obsession actually collapsed and she had an epiphany. She came to realize that she did not need this man, or any for that matter. She started on a journey of self discovery and took a moral inventory of her past relationships. She wrote about it in the book, “Men Are From Menzoberranzan, Women Are From Immilmar”. She then used the revenue from the book sales to open Athkatla's first feminist bookstore. In Her Words became a mecca for women, particularly those who felt trapped in bad relationships. The community that emerged here created the group, Friends of Galia, which strove to free women from abusive relationships. Eventually, the bookstore expanded to include an apartment block above that became a shelter for such women. Occasionally, the partners of these victims would come around to In Her Words in an attempt to drag their partners back home. You can probably guess how a confrontation between a drunken 0-level commoner and a Drow priestess of Shar ends."
“Faldorn was defeated by Jaheira in Trademeet and lost her title of Arch-Druid. In truth, she was relieved to be relieved of the position. Years of pushing forward the Shadow Druid agenda led Faldorn to realize that she had lost touch with the real Faldorn along the way. After some soul-searching, she reinvented herself as a lifestyle guru and developed an entire line of organic health and beauty products under the name, She-Wolf. Both her products and seminars were all the rage in Athkatla, specifically among noblewomen who clearly had too much free time. Faldorn eventually gave up her residence in natural environs for a lavish estate in Athkatla's government district. Her following soon pressured her to petition to join the Council of Six after the fall of the Cowled Wizards left the position open (aside from a short-term replacement). Her petition was a success and she soon found herself on the Council of Six. Under her leadership, she created created the FDAA, the Food and Drink Association of Athkatla. Now, instead of draconian rules governing magic in the city, equally restrictive rules and standards were applied to the food and drink that the people consumed.”
“Barely surviving being gravely wounded by Irenicus, Tiax left Spellhold for Athkatla where he intended to do what he did best: rule. Learning from his past campaign mistakes in Baldur's Gate, he changed his slogan from ”Tiax Rules!" to “Make Athkatla Great Again”. Of course, what he thought would make Athkatla great was putting himself in charge as a despotic leader. But, he toned down that aspect of his platform and instead focused on the history of scheming and backroom dealing of the Cowled Wizards (as if he was any less evil or scheming) and promised the people he would be different than all the other corrupt politicians. Miraculously, despite his obviously apparent character flaws, he succeeded in replacing the Cowled Wizards' representative on the Council of Six. He decided to take their stance on restrictive magic to the next level and banned magic entirely. Since he didn't study the arcane himself, it was no skin of his nose. This move undermined his support base leaving him with only the most backwards and ignorant followers. He was ultimately removed from his position when he insisted the city build a wall around the planar sphere and was expecting that the city's wizards would be the ones to pay for it. After his removal, his few remaining extreme supporters organized an invasion of the main government building under the guise of freedom of assembly. All nine of these “rebels” were rounded up, tried, and sent to prison. Tiax was convicted of treason and reincarnated in Spellhold, which was now just a common prison. After his eventual release, he was prohibited from seeking any position of power in Amn."
"Edwin Odesseiron continued to lay low with the Shadow Thieves for a while. The Cowled Wizards suffered a crippling blow as a side effect of the conflict between Gorion's Ward and Irenicus. Edwin decided to step in and finish the job. His thought was that he could wipe out the Cowled Wizard remnants and then take credit for their defeat, thereby gaining him more clout among the Red Wizards of Thay. After many conspicuous mage battles in the streets of Athkatla, he succeeded. However, the people who noticed his efforts the most were actually the people of Athkatla. They were tired of living under the Cowled Wizards' iron fist and Edwin was lauded as a liberator and hero. He even had a statue in his image raised in Waukeen's Promenade. Edwin was initially nonplussed over people finally giving him the credit he always felt he so rightfully deserved. But, he quickly came to accept their praise and bought in to being a champion for the people. Edwin continued his agenda of liberation when a clearly insane gnome who found his way on the Council of Six tried to ban magic entirely in the city. Edwin and his followers were primarily responsible for having the madman removed from his seat.
“Shar-Teel, Safana, Branwen, and Alora all happened to cross paths with each other at Elfsong one evening. Shar-Teel was looking to fight a man, Safana was looking to shag a man, Branwen was recently petrified by a man, and Alora was just excited to be somewhere new. The four got to talking with each other and, despite having wildly different personalities, seemed to hit it off. Shar-Teel was sarcastic and aggressive, Safana was self-absorbed and man-hungry, Alora was kind and sweet, and Branwen was the matriarch of the group. You wouldn't think this lot would get along, but they actually did, and their differences merely become the fuel for innocuous hi-jinks week after week.”
"With Gorion's Ward's help, Cernd was able to rescue his child that he then abandoned again at the druid grove near Trademeet. He promised that he would return to raise the child, he just needed to run to the general shop in Trademeet for some pipeweed. He never returned, but that was pretty obvious since he didn’t even smoke. Cernd continued to wander Faerun. It came to light in Cormyr that Cernd had actually married, and had children, with numerous women in Cormyr, Amn, the Sword Coast, Tethyr, Calimshan, Turmish, Halruaa, Icewind Dale, Chondath, Sembia, Impiltur, the Silver Marches, and even the Troll Hills (don't ask). Furthermore, it was discovered that Cernd was not actually a druid, just a werewolf that had a Ring of Goodberries. The druid con was so that he could have a reason to abandon his wives and children and move on to a new situation. You would be surprised at how many women could fall for a guy that can conjure an impromptu picnic in the park. Unfortunately for Cernd, Cormyr was not the kind of place to run afoul of the legal system. For the crime of bigamy, he was sentenced to life in prison. He never set foot near a druid grove again, but he was allowed to participate in a work-release program tending to the gardens of nobles.
“Kagain returned to his shop and grew even more bitter, but not over what the death of Entar Silvershield's son had done to his reputation and business. Instead, he resented that even the Enhanced Edition of the game didn't give him a remotely decent companion quest. By Moradin's hammer, Cernd even had a pretty involved companion quest and the story there both starts and ends with a deadbeat dad! Also, Kagain can regenerate! Korgan can't even do that. And another thing! He was sick of people confusing the two of them as if all dwarves look alike or something. Ok, granted, they're both old dwarves with greying beards, but Korgan's beard is tied while Kagain's beard is brushed out. Of course, none of this made sense to anyone, even to Kagain who never actually crossed paths with Cernd or Korgan. However, the dwarf had nothing to do with his time except stand in his shop, isolated and alone, until he was done in by insanity and plantar fasciitis.”
“The death of Khalid shook Jaheira to the core. She convinced herself that she could never love again, certainly not so soon after his death nor with anyone that would be a child in her eyes. That would be absurd and rather tacky. After her escape from Irenicus' prison and deposing Faldorn from the druid grove, she took over as Arch-Druid. Being a Harper just wouldn't be the same without Khalid. However, the grove would allow her to explore a new, but comfortingly familiar, phase of life. She had barely been installed as the Arch-Druid when Cernd dropped off his child and disappeared again. He did not even stay long enough to tell Jaheira the child's name. Knowing he would likely not return, she named the child Khalid after her lost love. Realizing there were other children our there without families to care for them, Jahaeira would send her subordinates to wander nearby lands and bring them to the grove for a better life. Perhaps not surprisingly, many of these children happened to be Cernd's. She eventually renamed the grove to Kinder Garden in honor of the grove's new purpose of giving these children a kinder upbringing. Jaheira's headstrong personality served her well with these lost children, who all loved her as they would any mother. The Kinder Garden became the most thriving druid grove in all of Faerun. Jaheira eventually died in 1547 DR, with hundreds of children haven been rescued in her lifetime, and a memorial was erected in her honor at the grove. The inscription read, 'Nature's Servant Awaits.'"
“After being freed from Irenicus' dungeon, Minsc put his boots on the ground at the Copper Coronet. Being the simple man that he was, he found himself unwittingly recruited into fighting in the gladiator pits (before Gorion's Ward was able to free the slaves). Yet again, Minsc took a blow to the head. But this time, its effects were something completely new. No longer was he the slow-witted evil-slaying ranger, armed to the teeth and packing a hamster. Instead, his intelligence and wisdom started to blossom and he explored, through dissertation, the impact of modern civilization on the overall ecosystem of Faerun. Indeed, before Minsc started his work, the people of Faerun didn't even have the concept of an ”ecosystem". He left Athkatla to pursue a residency at Jaheira's grove where he could study and work in peace. He published works like, “The Intersection of Geopolitics and Biodiversity: Living More but Dying Sooner”, “The Essential Symbiosis Between the Savage and Civilization”, and “Moral Urbanization: Seeking a More Comprehensive Prosperity”. Minsc continued his studies and writing and ultimately produced enough groundbreaking works to have his own annex in Candlekeep. It was shortly after the dedication of this annex that Minsc disappeared from Faerun, never to be seen again."
“Jan Jansen's fate was the most impressive of all as his endeavors shaped the very fabric of Faerun for centuries to come. His story truly serves as a moral lesson for everyone and we should heed its virtue quite seriously. Helping Lissa and Jaella planted a seed of regret in Lissa with regards to her marriage to Vaelag. Speaking of seeds, this reminds Jan of a time when he was helping his Uncle Scratchy with his turnip farm. However, Uncle Scratchy was hoodwinked and the seeds he received were actually purple carrot seeds. You can imagine Uncle Scratchy's surprise when they sprouted and he suddenly had a field of purple carrots. Well, as you probably know, you can't make turnip stew, or turnip casserole, or turnip pie with purple carrots. But it just so happened there was a mage tower nearby and the resident mage needed a vast number of carrots. Apparently, her plan was to animate them as a kind of vegetable army to combat a myconid infestation in cave system rather close to her tower. Of course, animated carrots are quite self-assured and were immune to myconoid's confusion spores. Anyway, Jan had a once-removed cousin, Bobil, that was lost in those caves when he was a young gnome. He had wandered so deep that he found himself in the den of a solitary xvart who was obsessed with a magic ring. Bobil happened to purloin that ring but it turned out to not be magic at all. However, it was still worth enough for Bobil to buy himself a nice cottage in Trademeet. He then started his own turnip farm and had better luck than Uncle Scratchy. Wait, what were we talking about, again?”
“Boo continued his mission to study the sentient life forms of Faerun and determine their potential impact on the metaverse. He preferred the continued company of Minsc due to the ranger's kindness and protectiveness. Boo found this to be quite valuable in his current miniaturized state. Even after Minsc's accident, where his intellect began to expand, Minsc never lost his good heart and inherent kindness and the two remained the best of friends. It was a number of years later that the term of Boo's mission was complete. A team of his fellow people arrived on a spelljammer to collect the giant miniaturized space hamster. Minsc (and Boo) were on a retreat in a remote part of the Neverwinter Wood when a vessel shaped like a giant acorn landed in a nearby clearing. A number of human-sized anthropomorphic hamster-like beings, who called themselves the Ysoki, emerged and met with Boo. One had a strange crystalline device which it used to restore Boo to his proper size. Minsc naturally remained composed while all this was happening. He and Boo talked often and he knew this day would be coming. Boo returned to the spelljammer with his brethren to debrief on the mission. The Ysoki wanted to bring a sample back to their homeworld for further learning and study. Boo offered Minsc for the task, as the exemplar human would fit in nicely with the Ysoki's advanced culture and society. Everyone was in agreement and made the offer to the ranger. Minsc felt like he had made every contribution he could to the people of Faerun, so he accepted and boarded the ship. Boo, excited to finally be on a spelljammer again, took the helm and plotted a course for his homeworld. At his side sat his friend and faithful companion, Minsc.”

My MIL is a challenging person and my DH, BIL, and FIL have all warned me about her from the moment I met them. They make jokes, but the gist is if she doesn’t get her way she gets incredibly angry, throws a fit, and says very hurtful things. Even if you say something in the wrong tone in her opinion, she will scream, berate you, and try to guilt you into feeling bad for her. Afterward, once she’s over it she expects everyone else to be over it - never apologizing or taking accountability for what she does.
My DH has never said anything against her to avoid her wrath and try to keep the peace. His parents don’t have the best relationship and he has been thrown in to act as a mediator or listen to his mom rant his whole life. She has had a horrible relationship with my SIL, but hasn’t said anything bad about me (because I try to be polite but keep distance) until recently.
While on the phone and upset, my MIL blew up because my DH wasn’t as angry about a situation as she wanted him to be. He said he didn’t want to raise his voice and disrupt me and she says, “So she is more important than your mother?!”. She continued to say that she’s unhappy with me because I’m not close to her and don’t reach out to her. She then demeaned my job as a social worker because she was unhappy with me, claiming that “she can save criminals but can’t text me”.
Later he tried to gently mention that it is important to respect me and him, even when she’s upset because he doesn’t want our relationship to turn out like his mom and SIL’s. She BLEW UP. She screamed, cut him off, and claimed that she’s always done everything for him and has never been disrespectful to anyone - which is absolutely untrue. She then reduced me to “just a vagina controlling her son”. She also said “all my degrees don’t amount to her life experience”. I do not talk about my education ever because I don’t want people in my life without education (I’m a first gen student) to think I’m belittling them. So I’m saying I’ve never claimed that my degrees count more than life experience anyway. She then continued to berate my DH, saying that he’s too sensitive, she must have raised him wrong, she always wanted to be a mom and look what it got her, he’s ungrateful, etc.
I’m hurt on behalf on my DH, who finally got the courage to share how he feels with his mom, just to be screamed at and guilted. I want him to be bow to share things with her and accept he’s an adult with his own opinions. She still hasn’t apologized and doesn’t think she said anything wrong. The thing is, this first instance is nothing compared to the hateful things she has said to others in her family. I know it’s going to get worse as we don’t give her what she wants - to agree that she’s right, not expect accountability, and continue to do what she wants. I’ve always been kind to her, but I’ve steered clear of becoming close with her because her mood and opinion on you can change at the drop of a hat. How can I continue to support my DH in their relationship and setting boundaries? How can I prevent myself from blowing up at her and giving her the drama she wants? With this type of person, is it better to go NC before it gets worse and really hurts my DH?

My discharge on my underwear is almost like sand. Sometimes it’s more thick and flaky than fine like sand. I immediately felt shameful because everyone thought it’s nasty and I just thought it was my discharge drying out throughout the day. I know there’s something else wrong with my vagina but this discharge is abnormal?

Anyone else surprised that Hannah and Paige haven’t said anything about Hailey Biebers pregnancy?? That is FRONT PAGE NEWS and I was waiting for them to mention it on the podcast today. I don’t want to speculate, and if there is tea I am (obviously) standing by our girls but I need to know what’s up. Or I’m just crazy, they have been really busy.

I just noticed my vagina is basically bulging out ?!?!
Background - I’ve been having pain during and after sex / lots of low back pain.
I noticed my vagina is basically bulging out. White/pale skin is quite literally popping out of my vagina . It’s not painful to touch. No other symptoms. I’m going to try and get checked out asap since this is NOT what it normally looks like. Has anyone had this? Or any ideas what it could be?

Today my doctor prescribed me clindamycin cream 2% (still no diagnosis for what I have going on but to treat discomfort in the meantime). At the visit she told me to apply it externally since that’s where my pain is but on the prescription box it was to apply inside the vagina with the applicator.
Is it ok that I applied it inside and then dabbed the excess amount on the outside?
Also I’m so nervous about using this cream and that I’ll wake up way itchier and irritated (I had a bad reaction to terconazole cream)

So I’m 23 years old and was diagnosed with endometriosis through laparoscopy and also had an ablation of the lesions about 9 months ago. About 2 weeks ago my uterus started to feel heavy and like it was being tugged downward. And there’s a a lot of pressure on my entire pelvic region. I’ve also been having the urge to pee a lot but i usually have to strain to actually start a stream and when I do it’s usually not much. Also, while I’m urinating or pooping, it feels like my vagina and uterus are being pulled down and when I check down there, I can feel a little bulge and my cervix is half an itch from my vaginal opening. It also happens when I squat or when I stand too long. When I’m laying down, it’s retracts back and feels almost normal besides the sides of my vagina feeling more puffy I’m going to see a gyn next week but I just wanted to get opinions from women that have experienced it Some more info that could be important is that my mother was also diagnosed with adenomyosis as well and endometriosis recently. She also had a uterine prolapse and her doctors told her that because adenomyosis causes excessive heaviness of the uterus that it was cause of her prolapse. I have all the symptoms of adenomyosis but unfortunately the only way to properly diagnose it is to have a hysterectomy and have the uterine tissue analyzed, which I am NOT against, I have no desire to have a children but I’m worried about them not wanting to preform one on me being so young without kids.

Be aware, incoming rant:
Hailey’s character is one of the most unlikeable tv characters. Yet we are supposed to love her.
She is a giant hypocrite, self righteous, sleeps with multiple people in her own UNIT and has the audacity to make it everyone else’s problem instead of just having self control. Not to mention the writers try to make her a “cool girl”/“one of the guys” types by having her look sloppy all the time to appear low maintenance and yet she is so drama ridden it doesn’t fit at all. It’s very easy to tell she is a character created by a man. They try so hard to make her character deeper by throwing in a half-assed story about how she was abused as a child, but it comes off as not at all believable. She’s just this weird “wounded”, uptight know it all who takes any opportunity she has to preach about how to police to everyone else- yet can’t even execute it properly herself. Oh yeah, and she just casually got Darius Walker killed and faced no repercussions from it- in fact she was smug. She can’t see the bigger picture like Voight can but acts like she does. If Voight stepped out to go to the bathroom, she’d appoint herself in charge immediately- that’s the exact energy I get from her every time she’s on screen.
It’s almost laughable how often her and Jay are able to dismiss direct commands from Voight and constantly be insubordinate with almost no repercussions. If anyone else acted that way they would be checked hard by Voight. (Like how Voight was so harsh on Adam for covering for Antonio)
I mean you KNOW a character is awful when they immediately force them on a bunch of screen time to make us be more fond of them, but in fact it’s made me really struggle to get through the seasons since she has been introduced. I used to love the show but now I feel I never see Voight doing his thing anymore, and rarely see Trudy. I tried giving Hailey a chance but she keeps getting worse and worse, I’m just waiting on her to leave at this point.

Im writing this with pure happiness and so much joy. Im going to tell the full story for the best possible understanding.
I started watching porn in 2014 when I was 12 and masturbated to it ATLEAST once a day until 2024. Im 21 now. I had a girlfriend from april 2022 to june 2023. We would have occasional sex, I probably had a body count of 7 during all of this. She was hot but a pillow princess so it was just missionary and her vagina was hairy and smelled bad. For a whole 9 months I dealt with this. Until I found myself watching porn every morning when I woke up. I enjoyed masturbating more than fucking. We stopped having sex from like december 2022 to until we broke up in june 2023. After we broke up, I would have sex 2 more times with 2 different girls. Until it happened. My dick got soft as I was fucking one. It was awkward. I didnt really question anything and just ended up finishing on her and that was it. The next time i was with a girl, I was drunk and I got hard. But when it was time to actually start to have sex, it didn’t work. I was so frustrated. I never thought it would happen to me and I was THAT PERSON that couldn’t get it up. She told me it was fine and that it was because I had too much to drink. The next morning we tried again. Nothing. I was so embarrassed and I felt like garbage. This happened 2 more times with 2 different girls. My dick didn’t work. I found myself in the rabbit hole tryna figure out what was wrong with me. I didn’t know if it was performance anxiety, PIED, ED, I didn’t know what the fuck was wrong with me. From that summer of 2023 to aprox. march 2024 I kept masurbating and watching porn. I was addicted. My dick couldn’t even get hard from just watching porn. I had to stimulate it for it to stay hard. I didn’t know if I had death grip or if it was dopamine. I did research and found the no fap 90 days bs. I just had trouble believing that this would work. So many people said that it has been a year and nothing has changed. I made the decision to do nofap. I would relapse every day, then every 3 days. Finally got to 2 weeks then relapsed again. I thought I was doing so good going a week or two without masturbating or watching porn. I even got to the point where this nofap bullshit convinced my mind to finally be confident and tried to have sex. I met a girl from a dating app. My dick was just soft so I told her I could only get hard if she gave me head but for some reason she didnt want to. So that worked as an excuse for me to be soft. She had patience with me and we had to force it until it got hard at the perfect time. I felt like a handicapped person having sex ( no offense) I had sex but it didnt feel right and I definitely wasn’t cured at all. Nothing was changing. It was a feeling of not knowing if or when your ever gonna have a normal working dick. Its such a fcking essential thing to have and I felt jealous of people around me having sex so damn easily. Why me. How will I even get a serious girlfriend(which is what I want). But then I started doing research. A lot. I changed my lifestyle, started taking natural supplements and everything changed. In one week. I fed a girl a couple weeks ago and went three rounds. MY DICK GOT HARD 3 TIMES AND I CAME 3 TIMES. I LITERALLY HAD PIED LIKE A WEEK BEFORE THAT. It was unbelievable. I have been going on a spree. I feel like a normal person again and Im so happy. It was almost a year of that bs. This worked for me and I know exactly how it feels to have that piece of sht curse. I wasn’t going to do any of this but I just said fk it. I literally have the key to be freed from this horrible thing. The reason im selling this is because its so valuable. I stumbled across this problem and this problem affected me for so long and made me feel like garbage. Its a problem that is emerging and that many people are dealing with. No one told me to not watch porn. No one knew it would end like this. Idc if you don’t believe me every single thing I have said happened and it worked for me as crazy as it sounds. If someone had told me during that time that they had the GUARANTEED KEY with no pain, no weird shit like nofap, penis pill and horny goat weed like wtf is that. I would have payed 1,000 dollars to fix myself in a heartbeat. I would only not get this if you work an overnight job, and or are unable to take natural vitamins and supplements. As simple as it is that’s all it takes. I have with all the supplement brands and all the exercises I did to fix my pied. All the little details and variables that I had to fix myself.
i have nothing to lose take it or don’t take it message me

Following up on on my latest post TLDR: had failed a hysterectomy in February and second surgery was successful.
34 y/o, high BMI, stage IV endo, suspected adeno, (not confirmed in biopsy)dense adhesions and scarring. Had my LAVH, robotic assisted on May 7th. I found a super compassionate doctor who reassured me and gave me hope after I lost it when my first surgery had to be aborted. Surgery went better than expected, with no complications. It took about 6 hours and took forever for me to wake up. I went home the day of the procedure, only took oxy twice and been managing pain with over the counter meds and gabapentin before bed. Hot water bottles and heating pads. Bloating is annoying, I am lonely and bored but I am happy to be done with it. I felt immediate relief, pain peaked on day 2 - gas pain is no joke. I wanted to thank this community for the advice and support provided, it has been crucial for my journey and I am grateful 💗
My hysterectomy was the culmination of more than 13 years of seeking relief from my discomforts that only worsened over time.
It started with anemia on the verge of blood transfusion that had no explanation other than hypermenorrhea. Each menstrual cycle became more tortuous with the passage of time, heavy bleeding, clots, leg cramps, lumbar pain and chronic fatigue.
I will have seen more than a dozen gynecologists and various doctors.
Blood studies, ultrasounds, resonances, endometrial biopsies, colonoscopy, contraceptives, hormonal IUD that ruined my mental health, I tried absolutely everything. I even went to the middle of the Amazon rainforest to seek relief in the medicine used by the Shipibo people.
I came out of many consultations crying, medical gaslighting and gordophobia were 98% of my experience.
They sent me to the psychiatrist because my pain seemed to have no other explanation than to be psychological.
Since I knew about endometriosis I KNEW that surely it was what happened to me, but finding a doctor who would take me seriously and believe me cost so much. It cost time, money, energy, tears, mental health, putting the body.
First they confirmed fibroids, then suspicion of adenomyosis (waiting confirmation of the biopsy), in February I was operated on for 3 hours without being able to remove my uterus due to the intensity of the adhesions and the advanced endometriosis (phase 4 that was confirmed in said failed surgery)
I had my second operation with a specialist and an interdisciplinary team of gynecologists, urologists and general surgeons.
They took out my uterus, cervix and fallopian tubes. The uterus was attached to the abdominal wall, bladder, intestines and basically everything around it. They drained cysts in the ovaries that I keep. I was cleaned of endometriosis of the sacrous ligaments and mainly of the bladder that was very compromised. They took adhesions from me and I'm sure I forget more.
I feel like I was born again and although this disease is chronic and has no cure, I already hope to see improvements and have a better quality of life, make up for lost time ❤️‍🩹 I can’t wait to see if I can ride a bike again.
Now slowly recovering and feeling very emotional and tired, otherwise happy and excited for my new healing era.
Will include surgery notes, biopsy report and pictures for the curious ones, Hope everyone is having a lovely pre surgery or recovery journey, it’s not easy, but we got this 💪 we are stronger and more resilient than we give ourselves credit for, we fight relentlessly and we show up for each other, our bodies are amazing and can do incredibly things. Sending lots of love your way, internet strangers ✨ 💗
Surgery notes:
Surgery
Findings: Laparoscopy: Smooth diaphragmatic peritoneal surfaces and liver without gross lesion. No injury under site of injury at umbilicus and no umbilical adhesions. Intraabdominal adhesions in the right lower quadrant at the site of prior appendectomy, with bowel and omentum adherent to the right abdominal sidewall. Once this omentum and bowel was taken down, there was a divot with a small amount of fat seen in the RUQ. Dr. Kim evaluated this did not require intervention. Similarly, no clear indirect R inguinal hernia seen without bowel and omentum involved, so Dr. Kim similarly did not recommend intervention. Omentum, bladder adherent to the lower uterine segment anteriorly. Extensive pelvic adhesions and evidence of endometriosis. Thickening of the bladder peritoneum and tacked up to lower uterine segment. Fallopian tubes and ovaries adhered to pelvic side wall, with left hematosalpinx noted in the setting of tortuous left tube. R ovary with small ~1cm functional-appearing cyst. L ovary with hemorrhagic ~2-3cm cyst. Rectum free, no posterior adhesions but extensive serosal endometriosis between the uterosacral ligament and on R posterior serosa overlying R uterosacral. Due to the ICG and use of firefly technology, the course of the ureters were well visualized. Procedure Details: After discussion of risks, benefits and alternatives to the procedure, written consent was obtained. The patient was brought to the operating room. The patient was positioned in the dorsal lithotomy position in yellowfin stirrups with arms padded and tucked at her sides. An exam under anesthesia was performed with findings as noted above. Urology completed a cystoscopy (no endometriosis) and placed ureteral stents with ureteral indocyanine green dye placement. See their operative note for further details. The cervix was dilated with tonsil forceps. Paracervical block was placed. The Rumi uterine manipulator with medium Koh ring was secured to the cervix. A Foley catheter was placed to drain the bladder intraoperatively. A 0.8 cm incision was made at the umbilicus, kocher used to elevate the fascia, and a Veress needle was inserted. Intraperitoneal placement was confirmed. The abdomen was insufflated until an adequate dome was achieved. A 8 mm robotic port was placed and the robotic scope was inserted. Under direct visualization, 3 additional ports were placed, two 8 mm robotic ports to the right of the umbilicus and one 8 mm robotic port to the left of the umbilicus. The patient was placed on steep Trendelenburg and the bowels were swept into the upper abdomen. The Da Vinci robot was then docked in position. The filmy adhesions in the RUQ were taken down with combination of cautery and sharp technique. The omentum was taken down off of the uterine fundus with bipolar and monopolar cautery. The left fallopian tube was followed out to the fimbria. The salpingectomy was then performed, starting at the distal fimbriated end of the tube and sequentially coagulating and transecting the mesosalpinx adjacent to the fallopian tube and well away from the ovary. The fallopian tube was left attached at the cornua. The procedure was repeated on the contralateral side. Good hemostasis was noted. The bladder was noted to be densely scarred to the LUS/cervical junction. The junction was incised with monopolar cautery and the bladder was meticulous dissected off of the underlying uterus/cervix to the level of the KOH ring as marked cephlad traction was placed on the Rumi device. Due to the anterior compartment scarring, round ligaments were not clearly identified. The thickened tissue in this area was grasped, cauterized with bipolar and divided with monopolar. Both ureters were seen using firefly technology. The left utero-ovarian ligament was ligated with bipolar cautery and divided with monopolar. The same procedure was performed on the right side. Marked cephlad traction was applied to the KOH ring. The uterine vessels on either side were skeletonized and ligated with bipolar cautery. The remainder of the cardinal and parametrial attachments were ligated with bipolar and divided with monopolar. The vagina was opened over the Colpo device circumferentially. The fibrotic uterosacral ligaments with overlying endometriosis was incised below the implants and fibrosis, taking care to avoid the ureters. The endometriotic implants over the right uterosacral ligaments were excised. The uterus and fallopian tubes were then removed through the vagina. Given the extensive adhesions and fibrosis, this portion of the surgery took an additional 60 minutes longer than expected. After that, the vaginal occluder was placed into the vagina to maintain the pneumoperitoneum. Dr. Kim then came to assess the inguinal hernia. He deemed no intervention was necessary for the R inguinal hernia or the RUQ divot. The functional ovarian cyst in the R ovary was drained. The 2 cm hemorrhagic ovarian cyst in the L ovary was felt to represent hemorrhagic corpus luteum. Two <1cm nodules on the R uterosacral were excised using cautery, taking care to avoid the right ureter. The vaginal cuff was closed using 0 V-lock in a running fashion in 2 layers . The area was irrigated, and hemostasis was evident. All instruments were then removed under direct visualization. The skin was closed with 4-0 Biosyn . Sterile dressings and Tegaderm were applied to all port sites. The ureteral stents were removed and inspected by urology and noted to be intact. A foley catheter was placed for routine voiding trial in PACU. Sponge and needle counts were correct times x2. The patient tolerated the procedure well and went to the recovery room in stable condition. There were no complications to the case.

So from a very early age I always liked playing with my sisters Barbie’s and with her and her friends and had my first taste of dysphoria around 7 when I accidentally saw a girls vagina and thought wait I’m supposed to have one of those too. Was a feeling not a thought.
Fast forward to ten and I see my first transwoman naked but on a porno magazine and I was like so excited that they can do that to men( make them have real boobs and look just like women)
I instantly knew that’s what I wanted to be (a woman but not a porn star)
I’ve often did masculine things because I felt disgusted with myself. My father’s an alpha male career marine so I think he instilled a lot of transphobia in me I can’t get over.
All I know is I can’t do this anymore. I will often try to get sober but the only time I feel like I’m in the write body is when I used drugs to help Me imagine having large breasts with pretty pink female aeriolas and an hourglass body. I often pray to God to turn me into a sexy woman. I often ask God to make it so I was born with a vagina between my legs instead of a penis and balls but He never answers.
I always thought God was real and that he loved me, but if He is real and he loves me then why won’t he fix me???why won’t he just change history so that I was born a girl. He knows it and I know it that I am was supposed to be a girl.
And I started HRT and quit 3 times primarily due to social fears. My wife hated me for transitioning but I don’t think she realizes I need it. I can’t live as a man anymore. It’s becoming to be too much but I’m afraid to take the next step too that I know I must take ifn too stay sober. I must transition. I really think that for me it’s transition or die or be junkie.
I’d rather transition. Amy tips for help to accept that I’m truly a girl? And any tips to help me get started or suggestions?

Is this an std in your experience?
Maybe I’m exaggerating and I’m going to the doctor tomorrow but I’m scared. I had unprotected sex last week and 3 days after I got a fever, sore throat, canker Soares on my tongue, very light vagina itch/irritation and then this acne that while I was sick I kept touching and even pulled the skin from and now it’s horible.
I want you to see the pictures of what I have in my chin and tell me if you’ve had it.
Also, keep in mind even if I do feel a mild vagina irritation it wouldn’t be abnormal for me to get yeast infection from sex, even if I did use protection.
I’m just scared about how this looks and I’m going to the dermatologist tomorrow but I have no insurance and I want to have an opinion from others if I have to actallly invest in getting checked by other types of doctors.

Ever since Lena Dunham admitted to digging rocks out of her little sister’s vagina it’s just not the same. Anyone else feel that way?
