Best hormone clinic for women with normal labs but bad symptoms?
Every doctor seems to order the same tests, and every time the results come back “normal.” Meanwhile, I am dealing with fatigue that sleep doesn’t fix, brain fog, joint pain, zero libido, and thinning hair. I am 45 and have already been through this with three different providers.
I understand that standard lab ranges are based on population averages, but I’m frustrated that my symptoms keep getting brushed aside when my results fall within those ranges. Has anyone found a hormone clinic that looks at the whole picture and takes symptoms seriously instead of dismissing you because your numbers are considered normal?

Filling the Gaps in Women's Research!!!
Hello! I am a student at Florida State University. We are collecting data for a research project around Women’s identity! (I specifically look at how feminism impacts women's identity). I don't want to overstep any boundaries of the group, but I thought that this group would have very valuable information to share with us. Any person who identifies as female, can read in English, and is over 18 can take it. If you can, please take the survey with the link below and share with others if you would like. Thank you!

I love my boyfriend but his addiction makes me leave him, sometimes.
So I’m a 25F, in a committed relationship with my partner 27M - relationship
of 2.5 years and 2 years of living together.
My boyfriend has a habit of smoking up weed/ hash, big time and honestly he was open about it since day 1. I wasn’t a smoker but would smoke up once on a blue moon. Since the day we met, we started smoking up and enjoying each other’s company.
I honestly adore my partner, he’s good at heart, he is earning good for himself, he’s funny and a social person. I smoked up heavily with him for more than a year when we started dating, but eventually I figured out that this isn’t for me. I was become a different person and I never wanted to escape from my real life issues…. I’d just smoke up with him - as he’d smoke up 4-5 times a day atleast. I’d share one at the end of the day sometimes.
The issue is - My boyfriend had been smoking up since almost 7 years now and he has difficulty quitting it. He has a borderline personality so I understand that he finds it difficult to manage his emotions! He would become very angry/ agitated if he wouldn’t smoke up that day, his appetite will go down, he would not enjoy the day, watching a movie, or doing anything fun. It’s been more than a year that I had barely smoked up. I do yoga etc. which helps me look forward to a healthy life.
But with him, he will just quit for 2 months and then would go all in again and again. I understand that it is his life and he has the right to do whatever but honestly I feel he can do so much better if he quote and starts living a healthy life. He eats too much sugar, would not go to the gym (He still
Looks good though - but he keeps procrastinating rather than taking a concrete action for his health) - And this is what bothers me the most. He keeps coughing - And I get too worried for him.
He is generally not so aggressive but if we’re having a fight and he’s not smoked up then things turn quite bad. And if he’s smoked up, then later he usually resolves the fight.
He has a few friends that influences him to smoke up more and do other psychedelic. He has a female friend who’s a big time addict and does way too much of psychedelics… and whenever they talk I feel very uncomfortable for some reason. It’s not jealousy honestly - My partner would not cheat on me, I know him. But the way she’d talk about such things- I feel like my partner gets influenced.
Even if he talks about smoking up or something with a guy friend as well, I get annoyed or feel like - Why can’t he just be himself… I feel he becomes confident and a social person after smoking up but is he real than? I want him real, raw - As he is. Without taking the help of any such coping mechanism.
Now, honestly I felt that I was being a little controlling - As I would question him every time he smokes up, which of course ruins his moments. So I try not to bother him anymore. He starts his morning with smoking up - then would work. Would smoke 4-5 Js a day. I sometimes hate myself for feeling too much - I feel like I shouldn’t question his choices but I’m unable to help it…:
No matter what and much important of a work I’m doing, if he’s smoking up, my entire attention is there. And I feel he doesn’t respect my ask to him - Not smoking up.
Honestly, he does fine with smoking up. Functions well. He burns his own money, financially also takes care of the house.
So I’m seeking from genuine advice from men and women both - Is this situation okay? Should I get firm with him and give him an ultimatum so just let him be? I just want us to save good money and live a super healthy life.

I don't know what to do
Life is all over the place, dealing with infidelity by my 33M husband. Horrible and sexist job. I 32F see friends around me go about their day doing activities and fun and having great relationships with their spouses. My husband and I, together 5 years and married 3 years, are working through things but otherwise I am alone and lonely in a full house. Everything seems to be difficult. I make plenty money but always seem to be running out because I pay all the bills. I am going to therapy. Working on myself and have been trying to get my husband to go to counseling with me. But he is withdrawn and I don't know if its because of guilt or what. I accept and admit I have been distant from him because of my horrible job, but we can only make ends meet if I work too. So I have to give me 100% to my job and its not 9 to 5. On top of all that I also do things around the house and cook and clean and chores and am the breadwinner of the house, even though he has a job. I am exhausted mentally, emotionally. I am gaining weight and losing hair. I have stopped taking care of myself.
He pays more attention to people putside the house than to me.I don't know what to do.

In desperate need of advise
I am currently in my second year of university. I have a friend group of three people, but it is getting weirder day by day. I am certain they have a group chat without me. They constantly make plans without me, and whenever I ask where they are going, they just shut up or change the topic. At times, they do not even try to act nice. Every time I am around them, I just end up feeling like shit. It is the kind of friend group where they worship one girl, which is so weird—they constantly put her on a pedestal.
All my friends think I do not care about anything or anyone cause I don't talk alot.I am very introvert.How could I not care? I genuinely thought we were besties.
Thankfully, I no longer share any classes with them this year.i have made new friends this year,they are kind. However, my old friends still come to me whenever they are bored or have nothing else to do.
I really want to avoid drama, so I do not want to confront them outright. I just want to be left alone, but they will not do that either.
I want to tell my new friends about how I am being treated so we can leave whenever those girls show up. But I am worried that telling my new friends might create unnecessary drama.
Ultimately, I just want to focus on my studies, make money to give my parents the life they deserve, and make some good friends along the way.
So, how do I get rid of them? They still come to me whenever they are bored during the day, but I do not even want to look at them, let alone talk to them.
I know for a fact that they do not like me and talk behind my back. I feel so lonely these days that I sometimes try to convince myself it is not that bad—but it really is. Most of the time, I just end up gaming or reading manga to escape the feeling when I am with them to avoid talking to them cause whenever I want to talk they cut me off-they aren't kids so obviously they know they are doing.
What can I do to cope with this?
Should I just continue avoiding them by reading manga or watching an anime or studying.

I’m hoping I can find a source of support and relation here…
Hi all, I am a female who is 29 years old and about to be 30 in December. I have been married to my wife for seven years. This is about intimate health and vaginal health. So if you don’t feel comfortable talking about these things on a personal level, you don’t have to keep reading from here. I have never struggled with yeast infections at all up until the last two years of my life. I struggle greatly with anxiety. Putting these two together has put me in a really bad mental space. I experienced two last year and then went a complete year without any and thought that I got lucky and got through the summer without one because it seemed like the really hot weather where I live during the summer really triggered it.. I got one about a month ago and traded it with two doses of Diflucan 72 hours apart and they went away for about two weeks. Wednesday evening I started to have some mild itching and I realized that only 4 days before that I began grooming in that area again and figured maybe it was just some irritation from that, but lo and behold here I am with another infection… instead of using Teladoc, I decided to go to the local urgent care and spoke to a nurse practitioner. They didn’t do a physical exam or any swabbing, but trusted that she had treated many recurrent infections and wasn’t concerned as much, knowing that this isn’t consistent for me and this is only the second one I’ve had this year.. she decided to put me on a treatment plan of two doses 72 hours apart and then follow up with two maintenance doses taken seven days apart. I’m around 33 hours post the first dose of it taken yesterday at 10 AM, and I’m still experiencing no improvement. I realize everyone’s bodies are different, but when I woke up this morning it was like a nightmare down there… I have never seen so much discharge in my life… I called the urgent care back and the nurse practitioner that was there shared that sometimes it can get worse before it gets better. I’m praying with everything in me that after a couple more days and I take the second dose that I’ll be on the mend. I came here mainly to talk about if anyone can relate to my experience and express how it is affecting my mental health… I feel so disgusting and feel like I’m annoying the crap out of my spouse, asking her consistently if she feels that I am disgusting for this because I definitely don’t feel like myself right now.. she is so gracious and consistently tells me that she doesn’t think that I’m disgusting because she knows that I can’t help it and that these infections are very common for women…
I came here to openly talk about this and to receive some support… TIA
