You looked, and now you want to know whether what you saw is normal. Something dark and jelly-like. Something stringy that did not break apart. Something that looked less like blood and more like tissue. Nobody describes this in enough detail anywhere, so you are left comparing what you saw against nothing at all. Here […]

Your period finished. Then, a week or two later, bleeding again — not a trace on the paper but enough that you reached for protection. Perhaps it has happened more than once now. Perhaps it has been going on long enough that you have stopped being able to say clearly where one period ended and […]

You have been told period pain is normal for as long as you have had periods. But you are the one who cancels plans, who has a system for getting through the first day, who has been sent home from work or school and has stopped mentioning it because the answer is always the same. […]

You have got as far as considering the procedure, and now you want the part that the brochures tend to compress into a sentence. Not whether it works — you have probably read enough about that — but what it actually feels like afterward, what can go wrong, and whether there is anything you would […]

You have the report in front of you. It says your uterus is bulky. It lists measurements in centimetres, describes something as submucosal, mentions the anterior wall, and ends with a recommendation you do not fully follow.
