Growing my nails out... unsure if normal appearance

Hello,

I'm still pretty new to the world of unbitten nails. I've bitten them as long as I can remember, and I am not young. I'm only now getting to a length where I can see them peek out when I look at my hands from the palm side.

However, I'm not sure if the white area is normal, or if I've been brainwashed by seeing adverts and nail professionals have perfect crescents. Several fingernails always look blotchy and striated on both hands.

I currently apply cuticle oil twice a day and lotion up before bed.

Thank you for your help!

We have ergonomic hooks at home (pencil grips)

Put some squishy pencil grips on my hook handles. They are delightfully comfy now. Wanted to share.

Good morning friends.

I am very early on in my TTC journey. 31F w/ 30M spouse. We have been trying for the past two years, more seriously in the last with ovulation test strips, cycle tracking, and trying to properly time sex during the fertile window. I have been on a prenatal this entire time.

I was dx'd with PCOS at 19. My gyn is now referring me to one of the local-ish fertility clinics. We have 2 nearby. I've been trying to do some research ahead of the first appointment so I know what to expect.

I guess I was hoping that "treatment" would start with just hormonal adjustment via pills/injections before getting into anything invasive. Going off of the website for the center, however, it does say they use HSG very early on, and it is honestly the thing I am most afraid of 😞I have had two IUDs placed and they were extremely painful, and had a practitioner at one point tell me if I couldn't handle insertion, I won't be able to handle childbirth.

Is HSG as a first line of testing normal? Would saying "no" to it make me be fired as a patient/client? I don't want to be a problem, but I also want to keep my boundaries. I'm uncertain at this point if they offer nitrous or twilight sedation.

Thank you. Sorry if this is rambly. still trying to get my sea-legs with all of this.
