Health - 11 October 2006

I got the depo shot earlier this month for the first time in almost 3 years. Normal my period is only 3 days long and pretty light/average. As usual, it stopped on day 3. Then I had sex, and now it's back and it won't stop... it's really heavy! I'm wondering if this has happened to anyone else...? At what point should I really start to worry and go to the doctor?

Hair on different part of our bodies grows to different lengths, and those lengths vary between people, as well as between areas of the body. After shaving (or cutting), hair grows (if allowed to grow to its maximum) to its previous length (more or less). So if you leave your leg hair to grow to its maximum, it stops growing. If you then shave your legs, your hair grows, but only as long as it was before - no-one has underarm hair reaching down to their pelvis.

Why is this? How does head hair 'know' to grow longer than other body hair?

Two weeks ago i started having a mild burning pain at the right side of my chest, it worsens when I smoke, I've been smoking for over 12 yrs now and i am 31 yrs old. Recently i increased my smoking rate from about half a pack a day to a pack a day cos i was really stressed up, thats when this pain started. I am over weight and i don't exercise much. I complained to my doctor and he gave me some painkillers and asked me to come back if the pain doesn't go away, I'vew finished the drugs and the pain is still there. I've decided to suspend smoking for a week to see if the pain will go away, if it does then i will consider quitting permanently. I have a 4 month old daughter and I'll like to live long enough to give her good education etc. The pain gets worse when i take a deep breadth or try to pull my stomach inwards. Is it possible that i have burned my lungs with heavy tobacco smoke or is this a symptom of something more sinister, i'd like to know before I go back to the doctor

are they painful? how much (on average) do they cost? do they "slip" often? do you wish you still had your orginal teeth?
