I got 2 spots 2 days ago. Today I'm knackered, have no concentration and grumpy - guess what! My period just started! Even if my cycle wasn't like clockwork (cos I'm on the pill and have been for 9 years) I could tell a mile away when it was about to start.
GHA!!

I hear you Sister. I'm perimenopausal and I can still tell when mines on it's way just by the way I feel and how irritable I get. I think it's damn unfair to still have PMS when you start having hot flashes and hair on your chin! >:(

This is an awesome thread topic! 8)
LOL, the only things I've ever had waxed are my eyebrows once. It was actually a nice experience at a day-spa and I remember being amazed at how much of a difference that little amount of precision grooming could make!
:o
But, I'm unwilling to spend money on that type of thing on a regular basis, so it was a one shot deal for me.
And, re: irritability, etc. ... for me PMS has always meant something more like a little phase of being relatively depressed. Since I recognize it as PMS, it's acutally not so bad sometimes... just recognizing it as a passing phase. It was god-awful in grad school and not so bad lately, for which I'm very grateful.
I've never been on birth control in my life, so things are free-wheeling for me and relatively predictable. And for me, it's really true... if I'm living in a situation where there are a lot of women sharing one bathroom... I will regulate to be on the other women's cycles. It's honestly pretty fascinating.

Do you know - I am on a down low at the moment, I thought it was just cos I'm desperate for my holiday (12 sleeps!! ;D) but you know its probably a combination of that and a bit of my monthly female issue!!
Now I lived with females for 5 years and I don't think I ever did regualte to anyone elses - its interesting though.
Jess & Dot - I feel for ya!!

I have always loathed using a razor for my legs or underarms. Quite awhile ago--15 years maybe?--I decided "I am worth it!" and started getting a regular waxing. Legs, underarms, and eyebrows and in recent years, my upper lip. Once in awhile I'll get my bikini line neatened up. It doesn't hurt and the more I have had it done, the less hair there seems to be overall.
I would never try to do it myself (I think it would be messy and awkward). After all this time, I can't imagine going back to shaving, either!
