Sorry for getting lax on this! It's been a busy few weeks...

• LRU for the week ending the 9th of March, containing news on curing HIV, progesterone and disease susceptibility, vaginal barrier methods making a comeback, discussing dieting with children, and camel toe.
  
• LRU for the week ending the 17th of March, containing a story about the people arrested for carrying condoms, what foster parents wish other people knew, benefit of quick HIV treatment, belief in false rape allegations, and analyzing period trackers.
  
• LRU for the week ending the 23rd of March, containing how to talk about sex and relationships with a special needs child, oral herpes, women who shaped America's health, unpacking the phrase "asking for it," and lingerie and power.

• What nice things do you do for yourself? What are your favorite ways to take care of yourself? How do you relax? What nice things do you do for your body and mind? It could be everyday, maintenance-type stuff, or rare gifts to yourself, or whatever you feel like discussing.
  
• What's in a name? Prompted by Flyover Feminism, we ask: what are your thoughts on names? What does your name mean to you? How does it relate to your identity? What is the history and context - personal or otherwise- for your name? What would a name change mean to you?

Spotting?

[place-to-hide.livejournal.com]

I've been on Tri-Previfem birth control for 4 months (soon to be 5 months). I just started the last week in the pack. I've noticed little spotting. It's pretty light bleeding. Like almost pale / light bleeding.I didn't see it until I was really trying clean up.  I didn't notice that's what it was before  when I've gone to the bathroom the last few days. I thought my pee was just a little dark. I also thought maybe I was being too rough with cleaning up. It hasn't been happening every time I've peed the last few days.

Last Monday, when I was on second to last week, I had to take it late because I was at a concert. So I didn't take the pill until about 10minutes to mid-night.

I usually take my birth control at 9:30pm.

Also I'm not sexually active.
