I finally got over my previous medical trauma to try for the 4th time in my life to see a dr for AUB. I realized I answered a question wrong at the dr. He asked if I change my pad more often than 2h. I said no. Part I didn't say: I use a combo of a pad and period underwear to get an equivalent of 6+ pads, so I can get through 8h without changing. I answered the question, not the intention, in typical Autistic fashion 🙄. I will correct this next time I see dr.

@Kellyshenanigans@yeg.bike It's also weird that that's still the question now when menstruation cups and underwear are fairly common. For me that question would make no sense because I think in terms of the size of my Diva Cup and have actual mL knowledge - and only realized recently when I compared that to online sources that the first day or two of my period is abnormally heavy and abnormally painful.
