Has Anyone Ever Had A Period That Seems To Be "stuck" Inside You?
A myPCOSteam Member asked a question 💭

Its the second time as far as I can remember that it's happened to me as both times when my periods have started I've swapped my sensitive bladder pads for my period pads like I always do and every time I've gone to the toilet there's nothing on the pad, but there's blood on the tissue and it makes me think that my periods have somehow gotten "stuck" inside me. It's the only way I can think of to explain it.

Has Anyone Tried The Lumen?
A myPCOSteam Member asked a question 💭

A myPCOSteam Member asked a question 💭

Hello all, I’m Yesenia and I’m new to the group. I was diagnosed with PCOS back in November 2022 and was told I was going to have a difficult time getting pregnant.

When I brought it up to my midwife she didn’t think it was a… read more

Trying To Make A Decision -any Advise?
A myPCOSteam Member asked a question 💭
