Health - 9 March 2007

I am getting a head ache everyday since taking the pill about 4 or so hours after I take it. It is the worse head ache I've ever had. I also feel like I am going to PUKE! Excedrin seemed to help a bit, and all I have in the house right now is TUMS for my stomach. I do not want to mix a million different medications in my system. But I also do not want to feel like I am going to puke all day at work. I am assuming this is from the pill. During my period I didn't have that bad a stomach ache.. but now that my period is over.. it seems like it's gotten worse! I want to wait a few days before I talk to the doctor because this may just be my body reacting to my first time taking birth control pills. Can anyone give me tips on how to feel better?? The pill I am taking is Levlen.. I'd like any feedback on that pill too. THANKS!!

In addition to antidepressants, what worked in terms of therapies? How long did it take for the depression to lift and what prevented a relapse?

Do men oragasm everytime they have an ejaculation (through love making)? I wonder because when I asked my boyfriend how many times he has an orgasm when he comes he said he didn't know. He said 'How would anyone know?'.

If you have a proper orgasm surely you know if you do it once or more than that?

Any answers grateful!

My mind litterally controls me. The problem is that my mind is out of control. It can be obsessed with a quiet ticking sound while the others in the room can concentrate on thier work.

It (my mind) becomes do obssesed that is can no longer relativize and prioritize events in my life.

How can out get control back of my mind?

Without going to a doctor, how can i tell what the canker like sores are on my testicle?
I have had a irritating rash for a few days on my left testicle. I have noticed that only when I first get out of the shower, I notice what appears to be three or four canker type sores that appear on the infected area. The canker sores immediately go away after getting out of the shower, and just an irritated area remains. i have been using ketoconozole cream on the infected area and I have been diagnosed with jock itch and fungus which i have been treating for about a week. At first, i thought maybe the jock itch or fungus spread to my testicle and that the cream would help. It appears to help, but I noticed the canker sores again last night after getting out of the shower. Not sure if it could be irritated by the soap im using or what? I have no other symptoms. I have only been with one partner in the past 21 days. What could this be? My partner does have a bad yeast infection currently.

My fiancee just found out he has tonsil stones. He really dislikes them and he's kind of worried about them. I did some research and found out they're really not dangerous, but I'm curious if anyone has had any success getting rid of them. What worked for you?

I'm circumcised and I'm interesting in "Foreskin restoration"

I've been reading in this web, someone talking about a homemade way... "I have been experimenting with something with the same effect. I fashion a plastic glans shield from a corner of a very lightweight plastic bag (like a cheap sandwich bag) and use a loose fitting rubber band that fits in the grove to hold it in place". Maybe my english is not enought to understand what is "plastic glans shield", could someone send me a picture of this (elmegapeluco@hotmail.com) or at least explaining to me with other words?. -> I was circumcised by a medical mistake.

I was jut wondering how people who are clinically obese celebrate and enourage their size?
Alot of the BBW websites show women who are proud to be obese and I can't help thinking this is just as damaging as th pro-annorexia sites people campaign to close down.
Understand that when I use the term obese I don't mean women who are average (E.g size 16)
I mean women who are over size 20, whose weight actually affects their health.
Now I agree that a woman shouldn't have to lose weight to make her man happy or to fit in, but going to the opposite extreme seem crazy.
There's a balance of respect, while I don't think I have to starve mysef into a size 0, I recognise the importance of being healthy, I'm not about to let myself get excessivley overweight.
Any obese person who says they are healthy must be kidding themselves and while we slate skinny celebrities no one seems to have the same opinion of the women who are proud to be obese, this has to be just as bad.
What do you think?

I'm 20 and I want to get braces because I want a perfect smile, but I'm really nervous about it because there is this whole stigma attached to it. To those adults/young adults that wear braces, how are you finding it and what kind do you wear (ie. have you opted for something like 'invisible' braces or do you have 'train tracks'?). How do people react to you? Is it embarassing?
