[EllaC]

My luteal swelling has always hung on until after the last day of my period. Don't know why. It starts to slowly deflate with my first day and then by the day after my last day of bleeding it's all gone. I keep most of it throughout my period, though.

Oh my gosh, Ella! What a horror story! That's so awful, ugh, I can't imagine actually feeling them. Yuck yuck yuck! What can you do to get rid of them?

But to answer your question...

...yes. Especially chocolate. I will eat chocolate. It takes a lot to gross me out, ha ha ha.

But wow that's cool you hang onto your luteal soo long!!! I wish I did lol

And yes BB its the most disgusting thing I have ever experienced in my life. I have learnt a lot about internal parasites since this happened and the worst bit is they are HIGHLY contagious, the eggs get airborne for crying out loud!!!
'To get rid of them long term you need to adopt an environment within your body that's not friendly to them, so pribiotics, alkaline, starve them of sugar, eat garlic etc. I mean all in all its like a cleanse really, you can buy over the counter chemical pills but I read they can cause liver damage and all sorts plus theres a chance they wont work I chose the longer harder natural route of elimination :s
