And if so what can be done and used to freshen her up a bit, it really is causing a problem, friends are keeping away, i just want to help.

I gave birth to my son in mid January and was recently prescribed birth control pills by my Dr. I havent gotten my after birth period yet (its been 10 weeks since his birth which is normal) so I was wondering can I start my pills with the period week pills first then go to the other ones? Or is there some reason I have to start them the other way? The only reason I ask is my period would be here this week if I never gave birth.

My doctor put me on Loestrin after I had my baby. I was only on it for about 4 months and then I decided to get off it. (First time on birth control pills) I wanted to get off of it just to see if I could loose some weight because the pill was making feel really emotional, and really hungry. So my last period was on Feb 22-24(while taking last last cycle of the pills-inactive pills). And I still have not gotten a period and it is now March 26th. I have taken 2 preg. test and they both came out negative. So i wanted to know if it was because I got off the birth control pills? Also, about 2 weeks ago I had a really sharp pain in my uterus area, I had sex that night and it hurt even more, and the following morning it was still hurting slightly. I wasnt sure if that has anything to do with it as well.

Everytime I have a boyfriend, I get into insecurity streaks. For example, when we reserve a hotel, or go camping, I get worried if there would be hotter girls around us. If there are hotter girls staying at the tents next to us. If there are prettier girls on the line on the supermarket, i check to see if my bf notices them. (Ofcourse he doesn't) But it brings me down. I also get upset at myself for thinking the way I do. My boyfriend is great and treats me beautifully. Its just me, and I'd like to improve my self - worth and self confidence. I definitely know my bf loves me and that he finds me the most beautiful person in the world. But I'd like to fix MYSELF. Any suggestions? Any books you recommend? Can anyone relate to this? Thanks so much!

I have anxiety and the doctor put me on xanax for my nerves.i am only taking a half of .5 a day he said i could take more if i needed but i dont want to become addicted so i was taking only that amount. i have only been taking it for 3 days but prior to this I had developed a tingling in my right fingers Its mainly my pointer finger on my right hand and my left foot tingle. It doesn't do it anytime during the day usually. Only whenever I first wake up. I know your going to say I am laying on them wrong but I dont. I lay flat on my back and do not twist my feet or legs.I'm kinda unsure of why my right fingers and left foot tingles. I woke up about an hour ago my foot has stopped tingling but my right fingers are still feeling like pins and needles. any info from any personal experiences or anything would be great.Thanks.

My 1 year old got the flu (probably from daycare) and my wife was up all last night with the flu. My question is what can I do to prevent the flu from hitting me. One bad thing is that I have a pretty weak immune system, I think. I have started taking 1000 mg vitamin C tablets and some Multi Vitamins and I have been drinking OJ but what else can I do?
