I know we're all still masking, I'd been a little slack and it got me sick (we isolated immediately when our friend tested positive the next day), this is your reminder.

This round of covid was as bad as every other, the symptoms were different (I was so nauseous), but as bad as it always is.

My hoarding paid off though, we didnt run out of food or anything.

      Me too. Its funny thinking about all the unvaccinated sperm junk, everytime I've had COVID my reproductive system has gotten a bit of a wringing.

        oh please say more? I have been thinking that my covid-positive period last week was weird and vaguely remember thinking the ones after vaccines were weird too, but I foolishly didn't pay enough attention because other symptoms were worse

          I dont get periods (I think thats what you mean) but i definitely remember reading about the effects of covid on ovaries and etc earlier in the pandemic. Both surprising and not surprising that didnt get more attention. Viruses are scary!

          It affects mine and makes them more painful and heavy, have heard of many other folks as well who have had it affect theirs. Either prolonging or causing them to be early or delayed. And affecting them otherwise too. All infections can do this, but it seems very common with covid.

          everytime I've been sick my testes have felt a bit achey, and climaxing hurts a bit, most of the vaccines I've had have given me a similar feeling but this recent bought of covid was the worst, ew

            Hmmmmm!! That is interesting.

            I asked because I actually had a similar experience with the aching or sensitivity/soreness. It started right around when I had my most recent booster (not the new one), and I took the flu shot the same day. I brought it up to doctors and even got scanned, they said I'm fine and it's nothing. But I know how I feel. Haha I didn't want to be a typical antivaxxer connecting the two so I blamed a recent, rough sexual encounter but maybe it was the vaccine. I think I'm generally better now but that's interesting.
