Week before period left leg swells (calf and knee area). On starting day of period or day after I end up in ICU with pulmonary embolus. Started this year only and happened 4 times. Didn't use any contraceptives for about 7 years and gynaecologist started me on Evra patch 6 weeks ago and none of the previous symptoms so far appeared.

Hi there, my question is I am into cycling and I have been cycling for the past year but it seems that I can not loose my stomach area. I don't have a heavy beer belly it's just a little something there. I am fine from my arms and legs, but my little pouch I can seem to get rid of. Can anyone reccomend me any supplements that I can take to burn fat while I'm cycling or any workout plans to loose this little pouch. Thank you.

I'm a 16 year old girl, I've been masturbating fairly regularly for the past few years but recently I've been really horny all the time and I'm masturbating at least twice a day. Is that normal for a girl? I don't want to ask my friends incase they think I'm disgusting. I just seem to be constantly aroused for no real reason, I'm always wet in my knickers as well. What can I do to calm things down a bit, because I'm starting to get a little sore down there to be honest.

I accidentally hit my finger last week and my fingernail got a tear. Normally I would just tear off the end of the nail, but if I did that this time, I would take half my finger nail off (painful!!).

I've been trying to protect my finger from coming into contact with anything that might catch it and rip half the nail off, but I'm wondering what else I can do with it.

I want to lose weight and have been told to cut out carbs by my persoanl trainer. I go to the gym twice a week, and walk on average half an hour to work and back 4 days a week. Although I also try to eat very healthy, I have put on weight and body fat, which is why my personal trainer advised to cut out on carbohydrates. In order not to be hungry I will have to eat loads of fruit and veg, and I mean loads, i.e. massive plates of vegetable stir fries etc. Will this help me lose weight or will this still result in weight gain, if I just eat too many?

My ex of 6 months (narcissist) became so mean and angry towards me so quickly I could not understand what happened and why. I asked him what happened to the sweet man I was in love with and his answer was "Hes GONE man!" Is this typical of narcissistic behaviour? I NEVER got a definitive answer as to why we were splitting up. It was very scary seeing this anger in him and not knowing what made him that way.I kept blaming myself but I knew my feelings had not changed for him. I truly loved him .Do these people not understand what love means? He was also very unforgiving towards people when something would happen. If I said something that irritated him he would NOT tell me, but just store everything inside his brain and then near the end of our relationship he went into a rage about past events.He took everything in everyday life as a personal attack. I did not know what I could say to him. He was also embarrassed very easily and EXTREMELY immature. He's 52. Is this a typical "N" ?

Yahoo posted an informative video clip on the drug Hoodia and I was wondering if anyone out there has tried it. Its so hard to believe any weightloss hype these days. The drug is supposed to curb appetite but green tea and some other diet pills claim the same thing.
