Health - 26 July 2006

I am nervous. I need to go to the ob/gyn for my first time on Friday.
What is it like. What do they do at your first visit. Will I get any vaccinations or bloodwork done. Do I still need to go to my family doctor. What is a good website that tells you about all of this and what to expect. My doctor is a male. What was it like(if you have a male dr.) looking at your private parts. Can you have someone in the room with you. What should I do to prepare. What kind of questions do they ask. Thank You. No rude answers prease.

Malatra prophylaxis in Peru?

I am going to Peru for about three months. I need to take malaria prophylaxis. I would like to know what people would recomend.
I see from the UK doctors gudlines that there are several different types of prophylaxis. Has anybody had expreience of these.
Also, drugs like malarone are prohibitivly expensive and there is no way I can afford it. A friend of mine suggested I use doxycycline but tell my doctor I was going for a few weeks, get a prescription for that amount, and buy the rest really cheap in Peru. Is this a good cost effective strategy, and how easy is it to get a hold of this in Peru.
I also realise that I need to take precautions against being bitten by mosquitos too.

Thanks for your help.

Hair or no hair? That is the question!?

I'm a young guy of 22 years and I have lost about all of my hair on top. I have been shaving my head now for about a year and I get more complements now then when I had hair. I try to shave everyday to look my best, but that's not always the case. My question to the ladies is... do you find men without hair just as attractive compared to men with hair? And my question to the guys... if you have lost your hair, how do you feel and if you have not do you fear that someday you will?

do you ever carry I handkerchief to wipe your brow with?

Since it became really hot in britain I've started carrying a handkerchief with me to wipe my brow with, most younger guys never seem to do this. Do you ever do this? I think a hanky works so much better for this than tissues.
