I have PCOS and have been dealing with heavy bleeding. My OB recommended that I get a D&C.

So far the cheapest option I've found is Fabella Hospital. I don't have PhilHealth or HMO, so I'll be paying out of pocket. I know Fabella is a public hospital and can get really busy, so I'm wondering if there are other affordable hospitals or clinics in Metro Manila that you'd recommend.

I don't mind paying just a bit more if it means a more comfortable experience. If you've had a D&C before, I'd really appreciate hearing where you went, how much it cost, and how your experience was. Thank you

Hi everyone. I was diagnosed with PCOS a few years ago, but my symptoms seem to be getting worse. I've been experiencing heavy bleeding for over a month now without stopping, and I'm constantly exhausted. I sleep every chance I get. I'm not taking iron supplements because they really upset my stomach, and I'm prone to ulcers.

I know I need to see a doctor as soon as possible. Since I've already seen a gynecologist before, would it make more sense to go directly to an endo, or should I see a gyne again first? I don't plan on doing online consultations so I'd like to keep the number of appointments and referrals to a minimum if possible.

Any advice would be appreciated ty!!

Planning to go to Japan this November for autumn. Which do you think has the best views during autumn, Kamakura or Shizuoka? Unfortunately we can’t do both because transportation would be too expensive for us.

Any recos or tips would be greatly appreciated!

I recently posted here on Reddit about how difficult the current job market is compared to a few years ago.

For context, I didn’t go to college, and I don't really have a specific "niche." My job history is sooo random. Kung saan ako tanggap, I just go with it. I also have a lot of gaps in my resume. My longest gap was about a year and a half and I spent that time trying to follow my "dream" after getting laid off, but it flopped LOL

My savings ran out earlier this year, so I started applying around. By my 150th application, I honestly just wanted to give up. At that point, having a decent job felt like a "pipe dream." But after 200+ applications, I finally landed one!!! It’s WFH, no trackers, and the pay is actually pretty good. It still feels crazy to me how someone with barely anything on their resume got this lucky. I’M BEYOND GRATEFUL

Thank you so much for all the helpful tips from my previous thread!!
