I have recently been watching stuff on Hulu and therefore getting US adverts....
Who the fuck feeds this to their kids?! PediaSure SideKicks - Child Nutrition Support - PediaSure
It's full of sugar!! The advert for it made me absolutely facepalm.

It sounds pretty iffy to me:

I saw a similar commercial with an elderly man, where he says that he wasn't eating well and his *nutritionist* daughter recommended drinking Ensure or something similar (can't remember the exact brand) to make up for the nutrients he was missing out on. Now I understand that sometimes, if someone has a compromised ability to eat, a liquid meal replacement might be the only option, but on what planet is a produce with "soy oil" better than getting your nutrients from a real food, like an egg or a piece of chicken?!?!

I lived with one for two years. I finally gave up. Too painful. I was either cramping or spotting or both half the time. I tried Mirena which has a low dose of progesterone. That made my periods lighter but I kept expelling them. Part of this is likely that my uterus is small, borderline for having an IUD at all. If I could have tolerated the Paraguard that would've been great but now it's back to condoms.
