Content warning: discussion of smut and a small sex talk
Today I was scrolling and came across a very graphic smut about Luffy x fem reader and here’s the deal. Write smut, live your life, I love a good smutty story but for the love of all things good:
1. Tag it as smut. Make it clear it’s smut. We’re on the internet, sure, but people are looking at the one piece tag all over, all age ranges. You gotta label that shit
2. And this is the sex talk part. YOU CANNOT GO PAST THE CERVIX. “He pushed past her cervix” he did what???????? Sir????????? 911 hello I have a MURDER TO REPORT. The cervix is what separates the vagina from the uterus. Sex happens in the vagina. It cannot and does not happen in the uterus. The cervix is typically like one of those powdered donuts you get at a gas station. There’s a hole there but you can’t see it, it’s so small. When someone has a baby, the cervix opens up to 10cm, thinning out as it opens. That’s called dialation. Penises or toys or fingers or rubber fictional apendeges aside, nothing is pleasurably going through the cervix.
Anyway thanks for attending my sex talk and please remember that female anatomy isn’t some mysterious mythical thing. there’s diagrams you could and should look at if you plan to be sexually active with someone with those bits or write about those bits.

Baizhu x Fem!Reader with sexual discomfort
Tumblr media
This goes out to my friends with these issues ♡
Rating: very light nsfw, fluff, headcanons with story format
Pairing: Baizhu x fem!reader with female parts
CWs: mentions of medical scenarios and terms, sexual discomfort, reproductive health issues, sexual tightness NSFW will be under the read more marker!
Baizhu is without a doubt familiar with the struggle of chronic health problems. He's always been open about discussing them, however, the problem you've been facing is a bit... personal, and you can't help but be self conscious.
Whenever the two of you become more intimate, you always find excuses to stop. Your stomach hurts, you left something boiling, you think you hear a rare bird outside...
Needless to say, your excuses becoming so outlandish makes him a bit curious.
"If you are not comfortable doing such things, I wish you would come forth and let me know," he tells you, voice full of sympathy. You laugh and say you're just not ready, then quietly excuse yourself.
One day, when trying to tend to yourself, you realize you can't take it anymore. Every time you've tried to put even a finger inside, the pain is so bad that you have to stop and lie down. Plus, whenever your period comes around, the cramps are so bad that you're basically paralyzed. And so, you have to go to the pharmacy.
ANYONE but him. If anyone but Baizhu could be working today, it would be great, but unfortunately, by the time you see him at the counter, the bell has already rung, and he turns around to face you.
"Ah, (y/n), what brings you in today?" He asks, offering a gentle smile. "Another headache?"
"Is there another um, doctor in today that I can talk to? A female doctor?" You ask, and can't help but be a bit embarrassed. You know you're probably the luckiest girl ever, having a boyfriend who is a doctor, but you want to take away from his stress, not add to it.
He's not naive. He understands it's a reproductive problem. But unfortunately, he's the only person in, and as much as you COULD wait, you think it's probably more important to see someone.
Before you know it, you're back in his office.
After a short explanation, stumbling over your words, he thinks for a minute. "How long has this been going on?"
You don't really know, truthfully, which you're honest about.
He gets up from his seat, grabbing a book from the shelf, and you can't help but be nervous about what his response will be.
"Now unfortunately, I believe that there isn't quite a treatment in terms of specialized medicine, since it seems like your problem is with the muscles. However, physical therapy like pelvic floor exercises and pain-relieving medications can be of great help. It's not an uncommon issue, you don't need to feel self-conscious about it," he goes on about it, and part of you is relieved that he's so insistent upon separating work and home. Here, he's just your doctor.
He sends you off on your way with a few pages of information, as well as a topical pain medication, but of course, the two of you meet later that night, after he gets off of work.
He sighs as he sits at his desk, looking over the same book from earlier. "I hope you aren't embarrassed at all," he spoke, clearly talking about earlier. "I just wish you would have come to me sooner about it, whether that be as your boyfriend, or just your doctor." He explained.
He was actually starting to get worried about your lack of intimacy perhaps being his fault, since he was always working. But he makes it very clear that he is willing to work on it with you. Though you're still a little embarrassed, it helps a lot that he is so open and unjudgemental about this.
That night ends with a sweet kiss, and a cuddle before bed, and both of you are glad that you'll finally be able to start trying treatments.
Whenever you're having troubles with cramping during your cycle and you're both at home, he's eager to help and attentive, fetching you whatever you need like a hot water bottle or pain meds. He's even willing to help massage your lower abdomen.
NSFW under the cut!!
Of course, it's a slow and arduous process, trying to work on the pain during intimacy in particular. Your clit is fine, so that's really all you can stomach for a while, but it's penetration that really hurts.
He's a slow and very thorough lover, even if he normally seems like one cough would turn him to dust. He always makes sure you're comfortable above all else.
He likes to sit you between his legs, with your back against his chest, and wrap his arm around you to your front. He works his fingers over your clit and his lips over your neck until you're more than wet and relaxed enough, before laying you down so that you can begin.
His fingers are longer, and more slender than yours, so trying to get used to his inside is much less painful than your own. Of course, it helps that he knows what he's doing more than you do. He's been studying that book like crazy just to help you.
When you're having too much trouble relaxing, he'll lay between your legs and use his mouth, with lots of breaks for both of you of course.
Of course, there are really good days just as there are bad days.
eventually, you finally feel prepared to take him. Of course, there's the usual hour or two of foreplay and preparation; he's nothing if not thorough, but eventually, its in, and it's almost entirely painless.
I must reiterate; he is a very slow and sensual lover. He will make damn sure that you feel amazing, as by now he already knows all of your erogenous zones and sweet spots and pays them lots of attention.
After finally finishing together, you lay together to regain your energy, as sex is always quite strenuous of an activity for him. It makes your heart swell with how attentive he is.

How an abortion can affect a womens health
The risk of complications for the woman increases with advancing gestational age.
Below are descriptions of the risks that have been associated with abortion.
Pelvic Infection: Bacteria (germs) from the vagina or cervix may enter the uterus and cause an infection. Antibiotics may clear up such an infection. In rare cases, a repeat suction, hospitalization or surgery may be needed. Infection rates are less than 1 percent for suction curettage, 1.5 percent for D&E and 5 percent for labor induction.
Incomplete abortion: Fetal parts or other products of pregnancy may not be completely emptied from the uterus, requiring further medical procedures. Incomplete abortion may result in infection and bleeding. The reported rate of such complications is less than 1 percent after a D&E; whereas, following a labor induction procedure, the rate may be as high as 36 percent.
Blood clots in the uterus: Blood clots that cause severe cramping occur in about 1 percent of all abortions. The clots usually are removed by a repeat suction curettage.
Heavy bleeding: Some amount of bleeding is common following an abortion. Heavy bleeding (hemorrhaging) is not common and may be treated by repeat suction, medication or, rarely, surgery. Ask the doctor to explain heavy bleeding and what to do if it occurs.
Cut or torn cervix: The opening of the uterus may be torn while it is being stretched open to allow medical instruments to pass through and into the uterus. This happens in less than 1 percent of first trimester abortions.
Perforation of the uterus wall: A medical instrument may go through the wall of the uterus. The reported rate is one out of every 500 abortions. Depending on the severity, perforation can lead to infection, heavy bleeding or both. Surgery may be required to repair the uterine tissue, and in the most severe cases a hysterectomy may be required.
Anesthesia-related complications: As with other surgical procedures, anesthesia increases the risk of complications associated with abortion. The reported risks of anesthesia-related complications is around one per 5,000 abortions.
Rh Immune Globulin Therapy: Genetic material found on the surface of red blood cells is known as the Rh Factor. If a woman and her fetus have different Rh factors, she must receive medication to prevent the development of antibodies that would endanger future pregnancies.

hi, my doctor has given me a tentative diagnosis of pcos and the only info I can find about it online that doesn't relate to getting pregnant is your Tumblr post. do you have any sources for the stuff about fatigue, vitamin D deficiency, etc being super common in pcos? cos I've dealt with those forever too. things are clicking into place but also with the way the NHS is I don't know if there's much point confirming the diagnosis (it's only diagnosed with transvaginal ultrasound :c) because the only treatment offered seems to be birth control and fertility treatment.
Good afternoon, nonny. Thanks for reaching out to me! And congratulations on getting a (albeit tentative) diagnosis. I know it might not seem positive, but now you know what you have and what can be done about it. At least, that is how I felt.
When I first made that post I never expected so many women to add their own experiences, talk of their their shock, their anger... or just admit that they had been diagnosed for years but that I somehow taught them things they never knew.
It's been an experience and a half. But I'm very glad that I can spread information and if that helps you, even better.
First of all, to diagnose PCOS, you need to fit 2/3 criteria of the Rotterdam concensus. Irregular periods, higher testosterone, and 12 or more follicles on your ovaries each. So, even without a hormone test you can usually tell whether someone has PCOS. Even so, I would still recommend asking for a hormone test if your health insurance covers it.
Sources
I tried looking up an English source for you since you mentioned NHS. Do keep in mind that women's healthcare is really not researched well and that there will be sources and information that will contradict one another. Here is one such article about the Rotterdam concensus.
As you can see they also mention the insulin resistance in this article, IBS, and fatigue, among other things.
Here is another one.
Here is some information about Insulin resistance in women with PCOS.
And here is some about depression.
You specifically asked for vitamin D so here is a study.
And another.
And one about fatigue.
I will however stress that these are all scientific sources and we all know that it can sometimes be biased, and again, not researched properly. My advice would always be to listen to women who have PCOS before listening to a medical source (no matter how professional it looks.)
My Own Experiences & Tips
I've not been diagnosed with PCOS long, but I have been quite thrown into studying it because it pissed me off interested me so much, and by researching (and reading a lot) here are some things that helped me, and I hope they can help you too.
Vitamin deficiencies are common in women with PCOS, especially Vitamin D. What I do is drink a glass of orange juice every morning with Vitamin D supplements. I take Solgar liquid vitamin drops, but depending on where you live they might have something of a different brand. Remember; take it during a meal.
Carbs make your sugar spike, so try to swap out some high-carb foods for lower carb. This way I have managed to lose weight, and this is often recommended for women with PCOS. And if you have a tendency for disordered eating, this will (generally) be easier than counting calories and going on a diet. After going low-carb my blood sugar level (which was high before) went down to regular levels and according to my doctor, I am now no longer immediately in danger of developing Diabetes Type 2.
Exercise! Especially weight-lifting, since it is mentioned it gives you more energy. Since starting myself, I have also noticed a difference. Here is a link for at home work-outs. Taking daily walks is also recommended for your exposure to sunlight and to help depression and anxiety.
Keep a diary of your symptoms. I have a word document with my own diary, so if anyone is interested I will be posting it. Just send me a message :)
Besides this, you do not need to go on birth control if you do not want to. My gynocologist said to me that once every three months you need to have your period. Women with PCOS can have a period 4 times a year, and that is enough! If you get your period less, then you can take progesteron pills for 7 days, and it will start your period. Again; you only need to use them for 7 days. You could do this four times a year and that would be all. Then again I am not a gynocologist so do talk about this with your doctor.
Another thing is that the fatigue could also very well be a side-effect of low vitamin D, B12, and low iron. My advice would be to get tested monthly if you can, and then try to balance your vitamins and see if this improves your fatigue.
And last but no least I recommend Meals She Eats. I made a post about it before, but even if you ignore everything else that is said (they are a bit woo-woo about organic foods and sugars) they still are very informative about the menstrual cycle. If for any reason you are unable to get your hands on the book do reach out to me in my DM's and I can help you.
If there is anything else I forgot I will reblog this and add more information, and I also will request others do too! The more we learn about PCOS and our cycle, the better.
I hope you have a nice day, anon. And I apologise if it took me a while to get to this ask!

Why?
So many have asked why I am so passionate about proper sexual education. For me, personally, I have found the lack of sexual education to be a main contributor of many of today's issues. Mostly I find that sexual education exposes the gender inequality in the current world. Firstly, which is most obvious women's rights.
In my first post, I want to focus on birth control. I am sure many women or just anyone who had regularly been on birth control are hyper aware of the rampant side effects. According to Planned Parenthood, The most common side effects are "spotting or bleeding between periods (this is more common with progestin-only pills), sore breasts, nausea, or headaches." Which I think is strange just as a concept. Why is it that we, as a society, think that basic birth control should have any side effects?
We shall continue into the more surprising side effects. Lower estrogen levels while on the pill can increase the frequency of yeast infections for women who have other risk factors. "Women on the pill who have poorly controlled diabetes, a diet high in sugar or alcohol, or a weakened immune system may also experience more yeast infections." says Alyssa Dweck, MD, an obstetrician-gynecologist in Mount Kisco, New York. "Hormone changes from taking the pill can cause dry-eye symptoms that affect vision", says Beth Kneib, OD, the director of the clinical resources group at the American Optometric Association. This honestly makes me question why birth control is only subjected towards women. But my favorite of the bunch is that low-dose birth control pills may be linked to chronic pelvic pain and uncomfortable intercourse, according to Peña-Robles.
This is all treated as normal or not even mentioned at all. What's worst is that birth control can cause people to more likely experience depression while taking the pill. This can do so much more to a human's psyche. Being depressed can keep people in abuse relationships and toxic jobs.
For me the why is simple. To teach all of this information, to make it readily available to everyone. Everyone needs better sex education even if they don't realize it.

HELICOBACTER PYLORI INFECTION (H. PYLORI INFECTION)
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a type of bacteria. These germs can enter your body and live in your digestive tract. After many years, they can cause sores, called ulcers, in the lining of your stomach or the upper part of your small intestine. For some people, an infection can lead to stomach cancer. The infection occurs when a type of bacteria called Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infects…

I’d really love for there to be more research done on the female reproductive system! Literally begging!
I am incredibly fortunate that I at least get whatever meds I have needed thus far without much argument from doctors, but I have been the one to research what medicine I need and to tell them what tests to run. I had to go to three separate obgyns until one finally listened and ran the test I was wanting and GUESS WHAT IT WAS POSITIVE and I was correct in my self-diagnosis.
But a more frustrating point is that my symptoms do not all fall under this one diagnosis, and that is scary. Why am I confirmed for one thing, but experiencing symptoms in-tandem that are not linked to that diagnosis? Is there something else going on? Why do no doctors care? Test me for more please?
Also the amount of shaming is infuriating. They all immediately claim it’s an STI, are incredibly demeaning when I tell them it’s definitely not, and are very confused when the tests continue to come back negative. Like, how many of the same test do you need to run before you realize there’s another issue??????
Many doctors will act like your child-bearing years are holy and you should protect yourself so as not to become infertile, and will shame you into feeling like you shouldn’t be as sexually active, but as soon as there is something wrong it’s your fault and has everything to do with sex and then do the bare minimum to make sure you don’t develop irreparable damage.
Ok, rant over for now. I have had a stressful weekend. I am grateful to have medicine, just weary.

It never stops. (PCOS)
This is just a mini-rant about ovaries and stuff.
Uhh-
Does anyone want my ovaries? Anyone? I'm so done with these things, especially my left one. No? How about my uterus? I don't know what it's doing, to be honest with you. Sometimes it doesn't hurt at all and sometimes it feels like someone jabbed me with a spear or a lance, so yeah.

I'm currently reading Meals She Eats by Rachel and Tom Sullivan, and I can't recommend it enough for women with PCOS.
Rachel has PCOS, and the book really goes in depth about several parts that aren't very much talked about. She is first of all wickedly funny, but she also is very honest about the challenges she faced living with PCOS. From being brushed off by doctors, to how she struggled with the symptoms. Even if you don't have PCOS, they really go in depth about the menstrual cycle and even if you think you know plenty about it, you'll probably learn something new.
Half of the book is dedicated to eat according to your cycle and balance your hormones and body's needs. The talk can be triggering for people who have or are recovering from an eating disorder, so I would be careful, but they mainly promote listening to your body and healthy living.
(Although they are a bit heavy on 'real foods' but you can just ignore that if you want to).
It's also genuinely refreshing to see Rachel's husband supporting her and being very involved with helping her with her PCOS. Tom actually started with trying to change her diet to fit her menstrual cycle. There are also other parts but honestly the book goes so in depth, it would take a while to point everything out.
So even if you don't have PCOS but still struggle with menstruation, or just want to learn more about your menstruation, I recommend it a 100%.

Reproductive System Cancers | Royal Bahrain Hospital
Tumblr media
Cancers affecting the female reproductive system originate from the organs including the vulva, vagina, cervix, uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. Among gynecological cancers, cervical cancer, primarily caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), stands as the most prevalent worldwide, with a high incidence in the population.
