I have been off of Depo for 6 months now and I still have not had a period. I would like to concieve as soon as possible. Looking for the best and fastest way.

I've always used cold water, as I was told it reduces potential razor burn. The new shaving lotions seem to recommend warm water as it helps dissolve the lotion/gel. Anyone know the real deal? I shave my head as well as my face.

My son is now two and I have been trying to lose weight since I have had my baby. During my pregnancy I gain around 65 pounds; my pre-pregnancy weight was 135. Right now I am 160 and still trying my best t get to at least 140 but it's so hard. As for my tummy, while it's not saggy, it's not as firm as it was before I had my son. Are there any tips that I can follow as it relates to changing my excercise regimen (I do at least 3 times a week: 20 minutes on the stair climber, 20 minutes on the tredmill, and at least 30 miuntes weight training and abdominal work) and diet.

If so, how is it working for you? Do you have any side-effects?? So far all the things I've heard about it has been negative. Does anyone have a positive experience with it???

I have a friend who is clinically diagnosed as depressed. At times, she can become unbelievably negative, even about what should be the most positive of things. Is negativity a symptom of depression or is this something unique to her?

My boyfriend and I want to marry, I love him and will never leave him. He is on medication and it controls his symptoms. He has a milder version of the disorder. I have Bipolar II, which is a milder version. I know our kids will most likely have a disorder since it is in both our families. Is there someone out there who loves someone romantically with this disorder who can share tips or cautions or anything that I may not know about triggers or anything?

They have clear liquid in them and harden the skin around them. you can're REALLY ever squeeze them... and nothing has worked... antibiotics, topical treatment, etc. What should I do? What is this?

This may sound daft, but really need some expert advice here. I recently found a swelling on one of my downstairs equipment - well alright testicle, got terrified, got it checked out immediately, and was diagnosed with epididymo-orchitis a swelling of tubes and vessels around the testicle, and given was ciprofloxacin. Now... here's the silly part. I have heard that you can have this kind of swelling of the blood vessel in any part of the body as an allergic reaction to a WASP STING. Now. I have been very careful in my sex life, I'm very hygienic downstairs, but the epididymal reaction only occurred (well on the day I noticed it) on the day I was stung by a wasp, not I must stress on the bollocks (ouch!). Sounds, I know, stupid, but allergic reactions are random, they can engender in the bloodstream, and I'm turning into a hypochondriac. Can anyone enlighten me? AM I MAD? Medical experts only please.....
