I have 8 and 7. It isn't orange on my skin tone (medium dark) gives this beautiful glow without all that dam glitter in other bronzers. I would recommend to try in store if possible.

:drool: It sounds perfect! I want to order it now but I dont want to risk 50 bucks being wasted on the wrong shade :(

I might just grab #6 and hope for the best :lupe:

does it effect you having children? i'm kinda scared to go in the sense that I want to have kids one day, but i've been irregular since my first period (they told me that ends after puberty, but i'm pushing 21 and still am irregular)

girl, i don't want any random folks looking inside of me, but i think i might have to

:ufdup: You gotta do it, get a regular OBGYN. If it makes you comfortable, get a female.

Idk :to: I havent tried to get pregnant so I have no idea IF i can get pregnant. But just because I have PCOS doesnt mean that I dont ovulate, but I wont know until I am actively trying to conceive.
Yea, your going to have to get past that random folks looking inside off you. If you want to have kids, you need to find out WHY your irregular and have all of the tests and stuff run before you legit try to and cant. It's better to know sooner rather than later.

:sadcam: I got the same problem, except it's not PCOS, it's endometriosis which causes painful menstrual cramps. :damn:

I was told I have the uterus of a 90 year old tho. :russ:

I have a close friend who has endo and she is on struggle mode every month. :wow: I can only imagine what it's like to be in severe pain every month with a heavy flow.

they really told you that?:dahell:
What did they say your options were when you try to conceive?:lupe:

Omg..it's not the random folks looking inside me thing I'm uncomfortable with. It's that damn speculum that scares the ish outta me..

:sadcam::sadcam::sadcam::sadcam::sadcam:

They use plastic ones and a lot of lube:pachaha: I understand how that freaks you out tho. But honestly, they are only in there for like 5 mins (if the doc moves quickly because they know how uncomfy it gets) and then thats it.:ld:
You still need to do it. reproductive health is extremely important and even tho it sucks to get checked.

I swear the pain is so bad :sadbron: it put me in the hospital and they started prescribing me oxy. It knocks you out though if you're not used to it.

I got a slim chance of conceiving, and I'm nearing that 30 mark so it's getting slimmer and slimmer (and also I became severely anemic this year and I went from about 130 to 100 lbs so my chances are even worse and the pain is even worse).

I don't really care much anyway, there's always surrogacy or adoption. Motherhood isn't just giving birth to a child yourself, there's other options. But I wouldn't wanna be a single parent so just gotta find the right partner (when I'm ready) first. :yes:

i'm sorry :wow: at least they gave you meds for it :sadcam:

I'm nearing that 30 mark too... 26. And I think about whether I will have difficulty conceiving naturally or not. I'm so scared I will need clomid or something more extreme to help if my ovaries do indeed be on struggle mode. :to:

Omg@ how much weight you lost. Good lord!! BC pills dont help with endo? :lupe: I know they could help me get a period more consistently but they fukk my hormones all the way up (they are already fukked :snoop:) .
This is true at the options we have to day to become mothers. If I cannot have my own biological child I will adopt. I have always wanted to anyways.

True@single parent. I don't want a child enough or motherhood enough to be a single parent.

I'm sure me and my bf will probably get married this year (we talk about it all the time) but I don't think I will be "ready" for a child for a few years. But then again my mom always tells me... "nobody is ever truly READY for a child :comeon: but when it happens and if you have support, you will be fine:obama:".

I inherited it from my mother she ended up having me at about 44, so she be holdin out hope for me. At this point, I don't really mind to be honest, when it happens it happens. And if it doesn't I'm cool with that too. I've accomplished a lot in my life that I'm proud of. Plus I got a lot of lil nieces I can play sub mom/Auntie for.

The worst thing was the pain tho :snoop: once I got that shyt under control, it was smooth sailing. But I got a horror story, I was in South America, and I didn't have my medication with me. True story, one of the guides with my group ended up buying a whole bundle for me for 20 lbs and roughly 20 USD. Saved my life, word is bond. I don't know what I would've done if I didn't get them pills. Prolly pass out from the pain. :to:

I lost all the weight from stress. I lose weight pretty easily, but I also tend to pack on lean muscle pretty fast as well. I got muscle memory. When I was 100 lbs I had the build of a long distance runner, no lie (shout to my mother's Ethiopian heritage :wtb:). But I gained about 10 lbs back through mainly circuit training and yoga, and I didn't have to sacrifice my vegan diet either. :blessed:

I admire you for not defining what it means to be a women by your reproductive system. :salute: I feel the same way. I think I am more fearful that I wont be able to than I have a desire to be a mother. ANd I have NO nieces or nephews :to: my bro is in his 30s and is not about that life.

God bless your group guide. They saved your life and didnt even know it. :salute:. I cant imagine being in so much pain I could pass out. The worst pain I have ever experienced is a broken bone since I broke both of my legs, but other than that... nothen. Strong woman you are ma'am! :wow:

I need your genetics. :sadcam:. I dont lose weight easy and I dont gain easy either. I have been the same size for the last 4 yrs or so even with working out and all. :why:
I often wonder if my hormone imbalance is to blame.

Thanks. :hug:

Well it's not really genetics, to be honest. My mom was a dietician and enforced really strict rules, as a kid I barely had any candy/processed foods/fast foods etc. :to: And my dad was also really strict, I grew up in the projects so to keep me out of trouble he had me enrolled in a lot of extracurriculars including dance (ballet). I ended up tearing my knee at the age of about 13, the same year my dad died, so I just stopped. It was so painful though. Now I gotta be careful with that knee cause it cracks a lot too. But because of that I have muscle memory (even if I slack on working out), and I eat healthy 99% of the time. My mom is skinny as hell too but she's a health nut and she bikes every where. She looks mad young. She's over 70 but looks more like she's in her 50s.
