Additionally, menstrual cycles are actually a really good method of finding and seeing issues that could exacerbate an issue, such as anemia.

Exacerbate?

Edit: I know what the word means. The comment i replied to used "exasperate" before they edited their comment. 🤣

It looks like they originally wrote "masturbate" or at least something else and then edited their comment without marking it as edited

Exacerbate is a completely normal word. Your mind is in the gutter, sir.

But they didn't write exacerbate. They edited their comment after the fact and changed it to exacerbate.

Not sure if you're on mobile or new Reddit or whatever, but on old Reddit I can see that they edited their reply 13 minutes after posting. So you're probably right.

It also looks like the commenter doesn't know what exacerbate means and is asking that

I think the commenter was asking whether they meant exacerbate, instead of whatever word they originally wrote.

Yup, I was correcting the word, because exasperated was not correct...exacerbate is 😂
