I remember my mother's embarrassment when I told her I'd be glad to go pick up pads for her. This was about 1972 or so.

there is an amazing book called Screaming to be Heard about women's thyroid ( and other) levels and how the so called parameters are such bullshit. I suffered for years being told my levels were within normal parameters. An online thyroid group introduced me to the book and through it found my brilliant endocrinologist specialist who agreed with me that i was not being helped by my thyroid drug. He prescribed a combo of T3/T4 and I feel so much better. Has been 20 years since he did that and other Dr's have tried to take me off T3 . I just refuse and finally found a Gp who also agrees with me Did you like this book?Screaming to Be Heard is a rallying cry to every woman whose body knowledge has been dismissed as "hypochondriacal", "neurotic", or "hysterical". Within its 20 chapters Elizabeth Lee Vliet, M.D., discusses and illuminates dozens of problems peculiar to women: physical, physical/emotional, physical/emotional/hormonal. .https://uploads.disquscdn.com/image...
