There’s new advice for those who use the #Mirena IUD. About 2wks ago the advice changed to the Mirena being effective for 6yrs - not 5. I’ve still had mine replaced today, but you should know that you can wait til the 6yr mark. (My source is a FPNSW doctor.)

Has anyone on here switched from a #ParaGard #IUD to a #Mirena? Do you like it better? (I'm having 2-week-long #periods, and it really sucks. I am ready to opt out of the bleeding thing.)

Wrote this when less #PEM crashed, but could be a typo/ comprehension minefield:

Does anyone know if #CBD oil interferes with #oestrogen? In general but specifically the #OCP (oral contraceptive pill)

Would I be better off consuming the whole plant? Perhaps oil from the whole plant? Has anyone had personal experience?

There is some good evidence that #cannabis can stop #endometriosis from growing outside the uterus altogether, so I’m looking at this as a form of #pain relief as well as a treatment and preventative. I don’t know which form and dose is best though.
The only other treatment for endometriosis is more hormones (which make me sick) and surgery, after which it grows back. Can’t find a doctor specialising in this. They all just want to give you a #Mirena IUD (without anaesthetic!) and surgery after surgery.

There’s also been some studies about CBD oil and #LongCovid. Something about switching on the #cannabinoid system.

Yes of course I would get a #medical #marijuana license and buy it legally on prescription.

Surely I can't be the first to think this, but every time I see it I think of this...
