i've been using slim regulars for a while now, and up until my last period they have worked just fine. on my last one i went through one in almost 45 minutes as opposed to the usual 4 hours. i don't want to go to the bathroom every half hour to check myself. can any of you tell me if regulars are that much larger and if its really that big of change. my moms not much help because she grew up using pads and the only tampons she uses are super jumbo things which i think are a tad to large for me. any help would be appreciated.

I'm not sure if I spelled that right or not. Anyway, I went to a doctor about 3 years ago to get one done, and the pain was so bad that they eventually had to stop; they never finished the procedure. I'm not sure why it hurt so bad; a friend of mine told me to relax and it wouldn't hurt, but it didn't turn out that way. I'm planning on getting married in 2007, and I've heard that in order to get birth control, I have to have a Paps mear (done successfully). My question is, how can I prepare for this a second time, and what can I do so that it won't be so painful? And why is this a requirement for birth control? Thanks in advance for your answers.

For a few years, I was what is commonly known as anorexic, and I can't find a way back to food. No matter how I try to tell myself I won't gain weight or that eating won't make me fat, I still end up getting less than 1,000 calories a day.

I'm taking a Pilates class, and I have a feeling I should be getting more than 1,000 calories when I have a class like that a few days a week.

Any tips (and anything but harassment, really) would be appreciated.

The worst pain I've ever been in was my last period from back pains. I was actually crying in the nurses office and had to spend an hour in there not moving a muscle with a heating pad beneath me. I use Midol which works most times but on my second day I always get the worst pain imaginable. i was wondering if there are any girls or women out there who can help me? I'm 13 and I don't want to deal with this for the rest of my pre-menopausal life.

Hi, I used to see Dr Rory McCarthy who treated my ADHD - however he is a pediatrician who specialises in the field. I am now to old to see him, my psychiartrist is a moron and keeps forgetting to send out my prescription - I have lost my entire box when my bag was stolen last week, I also would like to see a specialist of ADHD as my current dose is 4 tablets a day, I believe I need more than this. Does anyone have any ideas?

I've been having problems with dry skin on my face and hands. After seeing a dermatologist a few weeks ago, I've started using facial moisturizer on both my hands and face. It seems to help for a little bit...but then the dry skin comes back. I've also been using acne soap on my face(at the dermatologist's recommendation), but after my skin started to become extremely dry, I stopped the treatment (two days ago) and have been washing my face with Dove Soap.

Anyway, I'm just wondering...what could be causing this problem? Is it a lack of moisture in the air(because it's winter), diet, using the moisturizer, the acne soap treatment, or maybe a combination of all of them? Or maybe something I haven't thought of?

I am 4 days late. I had unprotected sex a few times using the withdrawal method.. my boyfriend always pulled out in enough time. He came about 5 seconds later outside of me each time. i'm feeling cramps and bloating and my other usual symptoms. Do you think I could still get my period within the next couple days? I've been under lots of stress especially now that I'm late. I was in a car accident a few days ago too, (nothing serious) but I was really shook up and nervous. Do you think that could also be a reason?

Yesterday, my lab work came back and my liver function is not good so my doctor has halfed my methotrexate dosage and I've been told no tylenol over 1000 mg every eight hours. Is there anything else I can do to enhance my liver function? Of course, I'll call my doctor on Monday, but I wondered if anyone might be able to help me. Thanks!
