Can anyone give me feedback on Proactiv Solution. I just received a trial supply. My skin is sensitive, and the breakout is only on my chin, will this product help? I am desperate to get my complexion back.

I bought a box of Tampax Pearls today. I've tried them before and my attempts of inserting tampons have been unsuccessful. I've read the paper the product comes with and the Beinggirl articles and I still can't seem to insert them. Whenever I try to insert one, I can't get it in over half an inch. I pretty sure I'm not inserting them in the correct place.

I'm 14 and I've had my period for over 2 years. I can't ask my mom or any friends because they don't use tampons. I don't have a gyn, so I'm basically trying to learn how to use them on my own. I understand that there is a risk of getting TSS, but I just want to try using tampons. I just hate how pads are bulky and uncomfortable.

PLEASE, I need help! No silly answers.

About 6months ago these people came to my school about being an Au Pair in USA for a gap year. I was interested straight away because I love kids. But i read the forms we were given and it said you will not be accepted if you have depression or have a history of depression. I had depression 2years ago and I'm nearly all better now. This made me really angry and i regret going to the doctor for my depression now.

Is there anyway you can get around this rule? Or has anyone experenced anything like this?

Anyone seen the movie equilibrium? YES! it's purely fiction, but wouldn't we be better off, not having our primitive instincts to better society and life in general?

when i was at the doctor a couple years ago, he told me i had pco and he told me that i may not be able to have children. I think that hit me pretty bad, so avoided him. now the thing came up where my boyfriend and i are really serious about have kids so we went to the doctor yesterday and thats when he told me i probably won't be able to get pregnant natually. (we had been trying for a couple months already) anyway, he put me on metformin... i guess the whole thing is, is what exaclly is PCO..i looked it up on google but it was really complicated, i just want to know from someone who has it, or knows more about it...and metformin...does anyone know more about it. and will it actually help me get pregnant?

I have taken many quizzes on the interent that tell me that I have it but I don't think that I do, well I dont' want to have it. This is what I do that might cause me to have OCD:

clean my room at least twice a day
won't sit on my own toliet seat because of fear of germs
reset my alarm clock at least three times
constanly have reoccuring thoughts in my head that I want out and that won't leave
and take two showers a day.

Does this sound like OCD to you? What would you suggest I do?

I'm fifteen, five feet tall, and weigh 80 pounds. First of all, is this good or bad? I haven't had my period since the first of July, so I know something's up. My family tells me its necessary for me to eat more now to keep myself from become infertile, stunting my growth, or cause some other harm to my body. As women with experience in life, do you agree I need to eat more? About how many calories should I consume? I know I need to eat more and try to plan my meals but when the time comes to actually eat, I feel guilty for eating and end up eating very little and feeling guilty for even that little bit.

have any quality of life. I am a nurse on a Geriatric floor. It seems that Doctors take heroic measures to keep people alive when it is there time. What are your thoughts on this complicated subject. I not saying to kill people at all. What I'm saying is we should let people go peacefully. We all need advanced directives to tell people about the care u want before it's too late.

This may be a little gross.. My nose is really stuffed up right now (I can't even breath through it) and when I blow it, it's just air. It relieves the pressure for maybe 30 seconds and then it's stuffy again. Is there anything else I can do? (I don't have any kind of medicine in the house)
