    Question for the women vapers!

    I've been to see two doctors and when I suddenly developed thyroid problems, a thyroid specialist too, all of whom checked my hormone levels and told me the same thing - "There's nothing wrong with your hormones." I don't quite understand how thorough this hormone test they do is but whatever...

    Question for the women vapers!

    I have a feeling that the progesterone shots you were having are very different to the progesterone creams? The creams are not a birth control method from what I understand. I'll be honest ,I'm totally new at looking into all of this hormonal stuff so I'm not exactly sure how it all works -...

    Question for the women vapers!

    You should calculate from the first day when your period starts. I have read that the time between that first day of menstruation until you ovulate can vary in length (first half of cycle) but it's always 14 days from the time you ovulate until your period starts. That's depending on whether...

    anyone else have shortness of breath?

    My husband pointed me to this thread as since I started vaping again with PG instead of VG I have been experiencing some shortness of breath issues. It's winter here in Australia so I have been finding it difficult to be motivated to drink a lot of water but since I've been making a...

    Question for the women vapers!

    Me too, the option of an unexpected miracle pregnancy or sudden early menopause is not exciting me too much.

    Nicotine and circulatory disease

    You might be experiencing PVC's or ectopic heartbeats or similar. I am also experiencing the same, but did also when I was smoking from time to time so I don't think it's vaping that's causing it for me. I think stress is one of the things that causes these. I'm also having these fluttering...

    Anybody else get enlarged taste buds?

    I'm not sure if you are experiencing the same or similar thing as I have but I thought I'd throw it out there as I see there is a similar post here in this section concerning the tongue. On both occasions when I've stopped smoking and taken up vaping I've developed what is called "Geographic...

    No coughing yet - it's been 3 weeks now

    I know. It's strange how some people can do so well on VG or PG and others find the opposite. I read of more intolerances to PG (it seems) but then again I've come across a lot of VG reactions too. VG seemed more "natural" to me somehow, safer? I was surprised that it affected me so...

    Did you try smoking a cigarette after quitting?

    I had to stop vaping for a while to sort out what turned out to be a VG allergy. (I also quit the first time accidentally.) After reading a LOT of comments saying people had tried a cigarette and it was gross I fully expected that I would find it equally as disgusting. To my surprise it...

    No coughing yet - it's been 3 weeks now

    Before I realised I had an allergy to VG and was vaping 100% VG I was also puzzled by the lack of cough thing. What I found though was that the VG really severely dried me out. Felt like it sucked every bit of moisture out of me. It was simply impossible to cough anything up and I would at...

    Question for the women vapers!

    Yeah I agree Blue. It's not the vaping as such it's the physiological and maybe equally as important the psychological shock of giving up cigarettes. A huge change for both body and mind to adjust to. Well, I'm going away for a few days. Hopefully Murphy's law will make it that it kicks my...

    Question for the women vapers!

    Shanagan I have a problem with high triglycerides. My doctor tried to explain to me how Vegetable glycerine is converted by the body into a simple sugar - which might explain why my triglycerides shot up after a month of vaping VG. I don't quite understand how it all works but I wonder if it...

    Hi there. Been away awhile trying to sort myself out. Thanks for your interest :) I am back vaping again this time with 100% PG. Have been entirely cigarette free now for four days as I spent a few weeks vaping and smoking about 8 cigs a day until I finally took the plunge and stopped smoking...

    Terrible gas!

    Quite frankly - can we be anything other than frank on a thread like this?......that now after having stopped vaping and gone back to cigarettes and now stopped the cigarettes and gone back to vaping, that the issue here is constipation. This is what I think anyway because the nicotine you get...

    Question for the women vapers!

    Hi, while I'm not sure exactly how, I have read that smoking has an effect on our hormones so it makes sense to me that after giving up smoking there would be a period of adjustment on our hormone levels. I certainly feel like my hormones have gone completely haywire! I suggest you do some...

    Allergy to VG ?

    Hi....I haven't been around in ages because I went back to smoking cigarettes while I tried to sort out what was going on with me and vaping and I felt completely out of the loop as far as vaping goes. I wish I hadn't gone back to the cigarettes because it's been a MUCH tougher challenge...

    Vaping makes me tired?

    I'm curious as to who mentioned the "industrial nicotine" and what exactly that means? I too am having problems (different to what is mentioned in this thread) and really beginning to wonder if it's an allergic reaction to the nicotine itself -as insane as that sounds. Could there indeed be...

    Numb, tingly hands, funny electric shock feeling when you bend your head to your chest?

    Well I don't know. After a recent break from vaping due to what I thought was a VG allergy (maybe the sulfites added?) I'm now testing PG as an alternative. (alternating with smoking cigarettes as I'm not ready to do a complete switch) So far there's no rash or pronounced flushing/burning on...
