Hmmm

This makes me wonder if having a copper IUD increases those two for me then

Edit: I just googled it but didn’t read any actual articles and a lot of the titles said it decreases the risk for cervical and endometrial

That’s interesting

That is opposed to a true clinical research study, in which a study is done on patients who have consented to be in a research study and participate in a study - whether that's with a research device, study drug, or research questionnaires.

So much man bashing. Men can’t cook. They won’t take their meds. Did you notice women had a 27% elevated risk, too?

The researchers said they couldn’t explain it but that won’t stop Reddit.

The pill destroyed my gallbladder and a few of my friends’. OBs won’t tell you that if you have a family history, it could happen. Later learned there was information in the product insert about it.

I had surgery for uterine masses in 2011 and severe endometriosis with a torsioned ovary in 2016. My gyn decided to put a Mirena to lower the risk of new masses forming and to prevent the return of endometriosis. It caused my some aqueous cysts in the boobs and i started producing milk but i will stick to it.

Turns out there is a women who had XY chromosomes. She was completely immune to testosterone so her body remained female.

And hermaphrodites also exist.

Nature is NEVER black and white. Any futile attempted by humans to make it fit into black and white definitions will ALWAYS fail. Litterally everything in nature is a (inserve or double) bell curve of some sorts. THAT is science.

Also, sir, this is a wendy's.

I work as a therapist and a sizable portion of my caseload is made up of non-binary clients and they describe similar accounts. There's a common theme of straight men experimenting with MTF folks/women for the exotic experience that leaves the trans women feeling used and depressed. Often the encounters are violent and traumatizing. I know my experience is anecdotal and the article lacks rigor but there's something to it.
