Hi all, I work from home from my laptop and external monitor - HP 27inch FHD. I want to add a second monitor instead of using my laptop screen (15in) - I work with excel spreadsheets, adobe reader for pdfs, a work program, and the internet. I frequently need to look back and forth between two/three things while working. Should I add a second HP 27in FHD or is there another better option? I do like the dual monitor setup. Is the FHD appropriate for this screen size?

Thanks!

it is getting very laggy while working and having multiple tabs open, I know I need at least 16gb of RAM. Not sure about processor speed.

I’m 44 and had an endometrial ablation 7 years ago and no periods since. My dr wants me to try oral bcp to see if it helps my peri symptoms. Does it matter which day in my cycle I start since I don’t have periods anymore?

Hi all, I am 44, and do not have periods due to an ablation 7 years ago. had an appt with my primary dr a couple weeks ago for something unrelated and briefly discussed my ongoing peri symptoms. (Hot flashes, vag dryness, irritability and rage namely)

She first decided to cut back my thyroid meds a little thinking since my TSH has been suppressed/low for a bit. She said I may want to try otc birth control for managing symptoms.

Last week I had (another) UTI and messaged her asking if estrogen cream would help. She was hesitant to prescribe that and wanted to do labs first to see where I am at. (I know they show nothing)

Got labs done and She said to make another appt to discuss so have an appt in an hour. How’s this list of questions/discussion points? If she doesn’t want to help then my next step will be to make an appt with my OB/GYN. Thanks for reading!

Questions:

Why otc bc VS lower dose estrogen?

If HRT should be started within ten years of menopause why wait til I’m post menopause?

What is the hesitation with using this to help with dryness and frequent UTIs?

My 13 yr old daughter has super wide feet and we have tried so many “wide” dress shoes and NONE of them fit the width of her foot. I know the struggle as I also have wide feet but hers are much worse than mine! She has a formal coming up in a week and a half and we really need to find something. She wears a size 10/10.5 depending on brand. She says if we don’t find something she’s just not going to go and I hate this for her. Any help or advice appreciated!!!
