I am a junior in high school and a track athlete. I want to become faster and eat a vegetarian diet. The problem is I have never did a diet like this and want to know how do you go about starting a vegan diet. Do you start gradually eliminating things that are not in the vegan diet or do you quit "cold turkey". Also can anyone provide me with list or any websites,book,magazines,etc of foods that are needed to sucessfully start this diet.

I noticed new (goosebump like) bumps on the underside of my penis shaft. I got STD tested last year (all was negative) and haven't had sex since. I went to Planned Parenthood and they told me the bumps were not warts or herpes, but more like a reaction to something. Now they itch a little bit but they are not red, they are still just skin colored. Wanted to know if anyone knew what it might be.

I am not deformed or anything and I don't have terrible acne. I can't control my facial expressions. I see other people walking around and when their not engaged in conversation they seem to be able to maintain a somewhat neutral facial expression that doesn't look peculiar. They seem relaxed and content. But when I see myself in pictures, my expression is always different than I think it should be. I'll be feeling fine and not upset, but then sometimes I'll see a picture of myself and I have this serious, almost angry exprssion on my face, even though I'm not angry. Sometimes I think I'm smiling in a picture and it turns out that I have a blank expression or flat affect. I notice when I'm talking to people, say for example, a cashier, they give me weird looks and by the end of our transaction they just avoid eye contact with me. But then their friendly with other people. It's like my facial expressions are inadvertantly turning people off. I can't make make the right expressions.

This is the first time this has happened to me.. any of you ladies?

I stopped my period about a day and a half ago and then last night my boyfriend and I were being intimate and it started back up. Not just a little trace like spotting but fully. It was a short period this time and my hormones have been a little off but still this seems weird...
Have any of you women had this happen or heard of it? Should I be concerned or just annoyed?

Women only!

I’m going to have an Endometrial Biopsy done Thursday; I’ve head that it hurts like hell. They found some tiny little Fibroids and now want to check for any pre-cancer (Scares the hell of out me to hear that) I just had an annual when all this began, it was normal then 2-days later for the past 2 ½ months now, I have been bleeding on and off. Wouldn’t any pre-cancer show up in a pap test? Have any of you been through this?
Is there anything I can take before the test to help with the pain during the test?

Terrified!

I just ate dinner and now my stomach is making obnoxious noises. I don't really feel sick, but I don't feel 100% either. If I take Pepto will my stomach calm down? Does anyone have experience with this? Will it hurt me to take Pepto even though I really don't feel that awful?

I was diagnosed as 'clinically depresed' a long time ago, like 15 years ago. I feel I have more symptoms of BPD or bipolar II. I am currently being treated with Zoloft, 100mg a day, and seemed to be doing alright - not great, but alright - for quite some time.

Recently, I stopped taking birth control pills. I was taking Seasonale, which I was told by my obgyn was a low dose pill. This has coincided with a dramatic resurgence of many of my problems, including anxiety disorders, major mood swings, and suicidal idealogy. I have held a job for the past six weeks, but my job involves approaching people and asking them questions. Which I know find I cannot do without suffering a panic attack. Things had been going well at home, but of course my mood and anger towards everything is now jeopardizing that.

Has anyone had issues with birth control pills and depression like this?

I've heard that hair loss can be a result of malnutrition, specifically from iron deficiency in one's diet. I think I may be experiencing this, but has anyone gone through this and noticed a regrowth of thicker hair (or just regrowth) after supplementing your diet?

Help...my stomach really hurts right now. After first I thought it was because I was hungry (in the same place) because I didn't have a chance to eat for awhile today, but I just did- to no relief. It feels pretty awful, but other than that I feel normal.
