Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) is one of those things no one really talks about, but once you’ve had it—especially more than once—it kind of haunts you. I remember the first time I dealt with it, and how embarrassed I felt even though it’s absurdly common. I tried the usual antibiotics route (hello, Metronidazole), but the recurrence…
Over the years, I’ve had more conversations about gut health and vaginal balance than I ever thought I would. But it makes sense—your diet plays a bigger role in your vaginal health than you might think. I used to believe bacterial vaginosis (BV) was something that just “happens” due to external factors. But after going…
Chest pain is scary. There’s really no other way to say it. I remember sitting at my desk one afternoon, feeling this tight, nagging pain right in the center of my chest. For a split second, I thought, “Is this it? Is this a heart attack?” I was in my early 30s, relatively healthy, no…
Dealing with BV while traveling? Yep, been there. There’s nothing quite like prepping for a dreamy getaway, only to have bacterial vaginosis (BV) sneak up on you. I remember packing for a beach trip, excited about sun and saltwater, when that unmistakable discomfort hit. If you’ve experienced BV on the go, you know how disruptive…

It wasn’t until my last serious relationship ended that I started to notice it creeping into my own behavior. That uneasy panic when my partner wasn’t around, the overthinking spirals, and a constant urge to text…
So there I was, just whipping up dinner like usual—chopping onions, sautéing garlic, when something weird caught my eye. Literally. These tiny specks started floating across my vision, dancing every time I glanced toward the stove light. At first, I thought it was steam or maybe water vapor messing with the light. But it kept…
I didn’t use to give much thought to electromagnetic fields (EMFs). You know, those invisible forces coming from our phones, Wi-Fi routers, and all the gadgets we seem glued to 24/7? But after dealing with persistent back tension for months—tightness that no amount of stretching or posture correction seemed to fix—I started connecting some dots….
I didn’t expect my first pilgrimage journey to test my pain threshold more than my spiritual endurance. Somewhere between the third consecutive early morning and the relentless sun during the afternoon prayers, a familiar throb began creeping into my right temple. If you’ve ever dealt with a migraine during a spiritual trip, you know it’s…
