Ever wonder why BV keeps coming back no matter how many times you treat it? Yeah, I’ve been there. At first, I thought it was just one of those random things that flared up out of nowhere. But after my third bout in six months, I had to ask myself — can a partner keep…
For a while, I couldn’t figure out why my anxiety seemed to spike every time life got a little unstructured. Days off felt more exhausting than workdays. Simple choices like “when should I eat?” or “what should I do next?” left me frozen. Turns out, it wasn’t laziness or lack of motivation—it was anxiety caused…
Honestly, I never thought my desk job would be the thing causing my migraines. I blamed blue light, caffeine, stress—you name it. Turns out, the way I sit every day, hunched over a laptop like a pretzel, was slowly triggering this weird cycle of throbbing headaches that crept up from my neck to my temples….
Getting older has never really scared me—until I hit my 40s and started waking up with random thoughts like, “What if my best years are behind me?” or “Will I still matter when I’m no longer as productive or energetic?” It’s funny how aging anxiety sneaks up on you—not overnight, but gradually, almost invisibly.

Because for anyone who’s ever had to deal with bacterial vaginosis (BV), the big question that quietly lingers is: Do men carry BV bacteria? I’ll admit, the first time I asked this myself, I felt awkward even Googling it. But…
Honestly, if you’d told me five years ago that cracking a joke could help me survive a social situation, I probably would’ve laughed (nervously) and changed the subject.

Let’s be honest — bacterial vaginosis (BV) is already frustrating enough without having to navigate the murky waters of what’s okay and what’s off-limits in the bedroom.
