I've heard that excessive exercising can stop growth of a teenager. I asked a question to my PE teacher and he told me that there was no need to worry unless I use an additional ballast. I want to make sure. Can I run as long as I want to without any consequences?

Seems that the majority of its carriers are not the most cared about in society, some are even called minorities in America. If someone loved by many has it, will someone come forth with a cure for this increasing world issue.

My annual pap came back abnormal, I had to go back for a colopscopy. Afterwards, the Dr. said he THOUGHT I might have HPV. I was devastated and still confused. My results came back that everything was fine but that I just had an inflammed cervix. I was given no meds just that he wants to see me again in 6mths. What do I do? Is there something I can take to take care of the situation...I need advice. THANKS!!!

Okay, im 12 years old, almost 13, and all my friends have thier period. I have been going threw puberty for quite some time now, and I have everything you need to get your period. I asked my mom when she got her period, and she was only 9!! What is wrong with me? It may sound weird.. but I sorta feel left out, like im the most childish one of my friends. And I even have bigger boobs then my friends! lol

It's my senior year, halfway through basically, at the beginning of the year I was going to make new friends and I had a great opportunity but I was too shy and blew it. I'm ready to give up and let it go. I can't realistically make friends with the fact that I had pretty bad depression and social anxiety disorder. I really think I need to get that taken care of before I can make friends It's kind of a shame, but I really don't see it happening. It's gotten to a point where a lot of the time I don't even want to be around people. Let it go, right?

During the last twenty years we notice the increase in the incidence of cancer amongst young ladies, kids, middle aged and old aged. The use of Hybrid seeds adulterated food stuff, frequent use of radiation-x rays, scans etc, started around that time. Use of pesticides also increased at the same time. Pollution is increasing beyond anyone's imagination. Have we been mislead by the advertisements to use all these?

For example, I know people can talk in their sleep because, well, I do, but what else are people able to do? And not do?

Is this something that requires medication always, or can it be treated by other means, such as cognitive therapy, herbal supplements, vitamins, etc? Do you know someone who has overcome this? Is it prone to relapses once it's overcome, or is it gone for good once it's treated?

My wife needs an excuse why we didn't fly back when we were supposed to and so she'll end up missing a few days of work. They want a doctors note. We can fake that, but need a believable disease.

What would be a believable disease that a doctor would tell the patient not to fly. We are vacationing in Peru and it is summer here.

Thanx,
Kevin

i often wake up and directly go straight to my laptop and read the news, before showering and eating breakfast. I find this is a good way for me to get myself to wake up early because I love surfing the web. Is this bad for my eyes though... they seem to feel weird lately?
