Fucking pregnancy and how uncomfortable even a normal one is. I've spent the past two years pregnant and even though they've been uncomplicated it's still awful.
I’m going to add on to this since it deals with post-partum issues
The struggles of BF your baby, stressing about your supply, worrying about eating enough to maintain it while also being desperate to lose the baby weight. Not being able to take the majority of medications without them being passed to your baby/affecting supply
And Post partum hairloss/hormone fluctuations

had a baby, the post-partum hair-loss has completely destroyed my curls. I desperately want them back
 
They bleed from the middle hole
Idk why but they also get grumpy because they bleed
 
Temperamental, hostile pre-teen girls are never taken seriously because it's seen as normal. Just a few years ago you were a sweet kid picking dandelions and playing with your dolls, what happened? Likely sexual assault/abuse. But no, it's just hormones and cliques and boy bands putting you through the wringer so it's dumb and annoying and a burden on everyone else and you need to just get over it. You're probably on your period anyway.
let's be real, even if it was """just hormones and cliques""", every cognizant human on earth knows being a teenager is hard. i haven't met a single guy, never mind a woman, who looks back on those middle school years with fondness. everyone is insecure, their bodies are dumping buckets of brand new hormones into their system, no one knows who they are or what they're doing or what they're supposed to do, and most adults aren't much help because they vacillate between seeing you as a dumb little fetus or a full grown adult without much in-between. teens, especially between the ages of eleven and sixteen, are like shitty skinwalkers trying to figure out what form will help them blend in with the other skinwalkers.

that along with the period thing just shows how people use doublethink when it comes to girls and women. everyone can understand the basic concept but they're conditioned to dismiss or downplay it anyways. adolescence sucks, except when my daughter's bad mood brings me down, then she's just being difficult. periods can be miserable, except when they're inconvenient to me somehow, then it's just an excuse to whine.
 
Idk if it's going to be TMI but regarding BC - I had such bad periods regarding pain and blood it was insufferable. The gyn just decided to put me on BC without doing any tests or anything.

I wasn't happy with this, decided to go privately to another. IO and behold.... Next day i was in hospital awaiting a cancer surgery - hysterectomy. So yeah... Ladies, if you think you are being dismissed and not treated seriously, please change your doctor... It might be life-death situation.

Also, fuck bras. Since pandemic started i stopped wearing them at home and now i only do it if i need to leave my house. I wish it was acceptable to not wear them all. If my boobs are going to be saggy by age 50 that's fine. I can accept this.
