I am 20 yrs old. I started having my periods at the age of 12. It was irregular at the beginning. the maximum delay was a month. But later on the delay time was even more. So I consulted a gynecologist, she prescribed me OVRAL. I took it for 3 months but still my periods were not regular. In the meanwhile I tried all other methods like yoga, acupressure and ayurvedic even. Then later I consulted another gynecologist she prescribed me to take DIANE-35 for 9 months i.e. (9 cycles). But after I completed the 9 cycles, 10th month I had my periods without any medicine, but now again this I dint had my periods. All my thyroid and hormonal tests are normal. So please help me.

I don't share my addiction with anyone. Not even my wife. For years, I have abused Ritalin. It is prescribed by a physician, who seems to be clueless.

It's not uncommon for me to take close to 100 miligrams aday. It makes a dramatic difference in my life. When I take it, I feel passionate, energetic, and motivated. When I don't take it, I feel the exact opposite. I failed out of 3 schools prior to taking it, and once I started taking it, I graduated with a 3.5 GPA. I'm actually going to finish my MBA from a good University this Spring.

At work I am productive while on Ritalin, and a bum when I'm not on it.

The Drug takes it's toll. I often feel depressed at the end of the day from being on it. It makes my heart rate beat at 100 beats per minute, even when I'm just sitting at my desk. It can't be good for me.

What can I do? I don't want to go back to the failure that I was before taking Ritalin, but at the same time, I don't want to be addicted to drugs.

Every morning I have the same breakfast and have no desire to change....unless my breakfast is not a good start to the day.

I make a shake that contains:
1 frozen banana
1/2 cup skim milk
1/4 container tofu
1 tbsp ground flax seeds
1 cup baby spinach leaves

Think that's a good start to the day? It's around 350 calories. I am trying to lose 30 lbs.

My aunt's fiance died about 5 years ago. Since then she won't clean her house, (it's pretty disgusting), does almost everything on impulse, can't stand to be around loud noises or children, is extremely judgmental and can't seem to see why some people don't like to be around this. She's also going through menopause. Is this just laziness and her true colors coming out or is a form of depression. She makes her son do everything for her and is now obese and getting a gastric bypass because she thinks it's the easy way out. I'm not sure how to help her see what's really going on. She seems to be clueless about what her life is really like. She favors her daughter and worships her while she treats her son like a slave.

I get paraniod about weird things sometimes but I have a situation and am curious if one can get the HIV virus from it. I was at a friends house the other night and when I left, I shook the kids hand. Now say he and his girlfriend had just had sex and he had semen on his hand. I went lets say five minutes down the road and went to the bathroom but it was cold out and I know HIV lives longer in the cold. If my hand touched toilet paper that I then "used" could it spread that way? I thought I read somewhere that it can be caused if two non positvie HIV men have anal sex and it is beacuse their body is not used to the sperm intake. Not that there was any anal sex but I also know that it can spread through sperm. So if they were positve would it be possible and if they were not positive would it be possbile. Sorry if this question is ridiculous like I said I get parnoid about things and dont want to put others at risk.

I know that some people just decide they are going to be happy no matter what. Some people turn to their beliefs. Do you fake it? What is your secret? This is for me and I'm sure it will help others too. Thanks!

biopsy to be performed in 2 weeks. Freaking out. Prostate is slightly enlarged. That coudl be normal for me though. No masses or tumors on MRI or CT. Problems began after I went to doctor in Dec about back pain in lower right side of back off the spine. My bowel movements and stool are always different but I never reallypaid attention until Dec. what they looked like. No blood in anything. CBC normal. Urine normal. Starting to get scared.
I was lifting weights (squats) playing multiple sports soccer,softball, flag football prior to symptoms. What could be wrong with me?

I've been yawning a lot lately, but I'm getting plenty of sleep. In looking into the reason a person yawns, I see it is due to a lack of oxygen. How do you solve the problem of a lack of oxygen?

I love my bf, but lately, all i focus on is him and it has sent me into a fit of bad depression when he's not around. i am afraid that i will become so close to him that i won't be able to be away from him without going crazy with depression. what are some suggestions you have that would help me be more independant and keep our relationship from fizzling out.
