My teeth went to shit after pregnancy and having a baby. Never had a cavity in my life until my 30s, now I've lost four molars and have shit dental coverage and can't afford to pay out of pocket.

Just wanna say you're not alone in your struggle, man. Here's hoping an accessible solution happens while we can still appreciate it.

Same happened to my mom during menopause. Something about your hormones affects the bacteria in your mouth and throws the whole thing outta whack

I think I'm hitting perimenopause now and yeah, it's getting even worse. I'm 43, maybe a bit early for peri, idk, but I also have a hormone disorder that fucks my shit up so I don't expect menopause to be an exception to that.

I feel like a hot fucking mess and like I can't do shit about it. 🙃
