i had a root canal done about 2 months ago on a back molar. it has been crowned. i am having pain (not severe) that feels like it is under the tooth. i have also noticed that around the gumline (closest side to cheek) of the tooth, if i touch it it hurts and its sensitive. i am wondering if this tooth can be saved? a friend told me to see about getting an apicoectomy on it. is there a dentist here who can tell me what to have the tooth checked for? the dentist who did the root canal is one i would rather not go back to...

I generally have a fairly normal appetite but then there are days that I could eat forever and never be full. I've been like this since the weekend - it's unbelieveable the hunger I have for anything. Not fussy about what I eat. If I see it, I eat it! How can I suppress this appetite?

This is gross, and I'll try not to get too graphic...
My B/F and I had sex about two weeks ago, and when he pulled out there was quite a bit of this white funny textured stuff around his shaft. it grossed both of us out and we havent had sex since. I thought it might be the start of a yeast infection, but here it is two weeks later and nada. Now, I have been doing a finger check every couple of days to see what up in there, and it seems that the lining is somewhat coated. I am not really seeing anything on my finger, but there does seem to be kind of an oily feel to it. I would consider everything pretty much normal except for the incident a couple of weeks ago. Any clue?

I am 18 years old and I want to start exercising. I am not obese but I feel if I do not have exercise in my life, I could become that way. BUT! I have no idea where to start! I don't want to join a gym: I would feel very intimidated by all of the other patrons. I just don't know where to start!

I took the morning after pill a month ago. A week later, I had a very light period that lasted 1 week. The week following, I had a heavy period that also lasted 1 week. Is there still a chance I could be pregnant?

I received an email and it made me wonder what the difference was. Then, I viewed some websites that had information on partial birth abortions. I was curious as to what the difference is between murder and partial birth abortions.

This is one of the sites I looked at. I had no idea how this procedure was performed until now. It's so horrible. www.nrlc.org/abortion/pba/diagram.html
