hi, im 20 and ive been struggling with what i thought was just chronic yeast infections for a handful of years now.

Back in January, i had gotten diagnosed with chronic yeast infections and was given 6+ months of doses for fluconazole.

earlier this summer, i was having pretty severe abdominal cramps and got my period (getting my period was very unusual since with my IUD and being on spironolactone, i had not previously had one since early 2025). I was very concerned and went to the OBGYN assuming my IUD may have been knocked out of place. Nope. Tested me positive for ureaplasma urealyticum.

I finished the 10 days of doxycycline a little over a month ago and have still had lingering symptoms. I really don’t know what to do to treat this more.

I was also seeing people talk about how this is connected to IBS or something potentially? I’ve had IBS for 5+ years so now I’m starting to feel like ureaplasma might have been the underlying issue in every gyno/gastro issue I’ve experienced.

I’m very sorry for the long post, I’m hoping others may have advice or suggestions pertaining to more testing or treatment plans to bring up to my provider.

was anyone aware of the hf 4922 bill that was proposed in 2024? and how can we still advocate for this bill to be passed through the state of Minnesota? this bill helps prevent people from being pulled over on only the basis of secondary offenses in a moving vehicle (such as tags, tint, or exhaust) - it expects police officers to pull vehicles over on the basis of an actual moving violations rather than secondary offenses. I previously thought that this bill was passed to be honest, but looking closer it seems to only be a policy that some departments in the cities have adopted.

this is the bill if anyone is curious ⬆️

Wanted to see if others were in support of this bill or honest opinions from others in the community here.
