Anyone ever done the gut health / microbiome test? Whether with a doctor or a take home kit? There’s very obviously something unbalanced in my gut / digestive system and would like to know if these tests have been helpful for anyone!

I'm drinking nearly every day to just deal with it all.

I'm doing fairly decent at work. The money is ok, with the very high probability of being more than i could have realistically ever dreamed. But my personal life is on the rocks -- and alcohol is basically the only thing keeping me level enough to balance it all.

This can't be sustainable. But Idk what else to really do. It works for now.

I don’t get it. The leaders are proclaiming testing is so ‘widely available’ (potus) and available to ‘anyone’ who wants to get tested (Ohio gov.), but when you try to get the testing most if not all places limit tests to those presenting symptoms. It’s all such bs

Anyone here counsel for a parent company with a lot of subsidiaries but the parent company’s legal department is really really small? I’m wondering if a small legal department for a large company is more of a pro or con? On one hand I suspect it’s less organized, on the other it might be a great leadership opportunity. Any insight? Thanks!

Anyone here on a sponsored worker visa?

I am switching employers to Accenture.

I am being told I cannot clear a right to work check until my BRP arrives. And because of this I will need to have my start date pushed by two weeks (start date is mid Jan right now, visa approved yesterday and they need the documents by end of week).

Does this make sense? I'm trying to argue my case as I don't like the idea of losing two weeks, and I am approved. I cannot control the post delivery times...

Hello All,
I’m looking for a new role in PM. I’d like to target companies that offer fertility benefits. Im making a list (since I can’t find one).
If your company offers such benefits would you mind sharing the company name? Any special benefits like surrogate coverage? How many rounds of IVF? Who is the benefit carrying company?
Thanks for your thoughts!

Sharing my story: I carry an abnormal gene in which me and my wife's first child was affected. We decided with our second child to use IVF. We started our journey in January 2021 and my wife went through 4 IVF cycles using my sperm in a 9 month span (her choice). We decided after the 4th round failed to go a different route and use sperm donation to rid us of the gene. During 2022, she went through 4 rounds of IUI and finally got one that stuck. She is now 14 weeks pregnant and due in April 😊

When are we required to tell HR and our managers that we’re pregnant? I would like to wait as long as possible.

How many of the couples going through IVF or IUI are doing so because your spouse has a low sperm count? My SA results indicate low sperm count and I was seeing if any of the men were able to improve count with medications.

Starting 9/1, EY's United healthcare choice plus insurance will increase the lifetime max fertility benefit from $25K healthcare + $10K drugs to $50K blended. Pleasantly surprised by this increase and was not expecting an insurance company to offer up more benefits!

Hello. Hoping to see if anyone has inputs here - I’m going through IVF and my egg retrieval is ~10 days from now. However, my husband tested positive for covid earlier this week.

Quick question, I’m starting timed intercourse with medication. I received my ovidrel injextion 4 months ago. It’s been in the fridge. I’m anticipating a potential trigger today or tomorrow (measured today with one 17mm and one 18mm) waiting to hear back on my hormone levels. I assume the fridge was a good call as that’s what the pharmacy reccomended. Should I take it out now? Leave it in till last minute? Thoughts comments?
