ok I'm skinny and all but I have a big gut and so can that make my waist measurment bigger than it really is? Like I'm not chubby or fat I'm just skinny with a big gut (the kind were tight shirts dont like 2 well). and also is there a way I can make my waist skinnier? Could it possibly grow skinnier since I'm only 14?

I have a huge pimple on my chin that I need to get rid of ASAP or before Monday. It is just a big red one, not a white head more like a large bump that I have had for the last 3 days now. Any help would be great. I heard something about Hydrocortisone cream but not sure yet, thanks.

Only 1 tooth hurt when I took a bite. I was thinking how in the devil is my teeth loosened already but it is. I haven't eaten this morning yet, I'm kinda scared. But I need to loose about 20lbs anyway, so I'm having a slim fast.

Hello! I just found yesterday, that a friend die while giving birth to a child. She was in her late 20's. She was a healthy young lady. How common is for a healthy woman to die of a heart-attack during child-birth?

Please I need honest answers. I don't need jokes or dumb answers. All I am asking show alittle respect. Thanks!

Me and my fiance have been together for over a year now and there seems to be a problem. I used to have some anxiety issues when I was younger and dont know if that related. I seem to get erections fairly easy even when we just make out and things of that nature. DOnt know if I am worried about it or what but when we have sex I usually ejaculate within the first minute but I can go again directly after that and go for hours. Just curious if this is a physical or mental thing that a doctor could help me with or if anyone has any suggestions? What kind of doctor do you goto for something like this? We have been having sex for about a year now so its not like its new to me and of course when I am drunk its a different story lol. I still always get her off so its not a huge issue to ehr just something I am curious about.

I have a question about going into starvation mode. Hypnotically if I were to eat 4000 calories a day but spent 10,000 would my metabolism slow or shut down.

Basically I want to know if it is your calorie deficit that cause starvation mode or is it going under a calories intake for the day that causes it? I have heard a man will not generally go into starvation if they stay about 1500 calories a day

I have had 3 urinary tract infections in the past like 9 months. Well I have noticed that while having intercouse I don't last as long. We used to be able to go for a really long time and I could get her off like 4 or 5 times but anymore she doesn't even come close. I was wondering if that had anything to do with it, or if there was anything that I could do about it. I'm afraid it will mess up my relationship with my girl friend if it doesn't get fixed.

My Dr. put me on yaz. I've been on it for about a week now and I can't seem to control my emotions. Someone asked me if I was bipolar the other day. Is it normal? Does anyone else have this problem.


(Note) I am going to go see my Dr. next week so no need to tell me that just answer the question please.

I have this huge insane obsession with men in spandex! I just want to know how many straight men out there like to wear spandex in public? Who isn’t ashamed to show it off? I admire a handsome man in anything tight and form fitting. So how many out there do wear it? And do you mind if other men look at you in it?

I was told back many years ago, that I needed Corrective Jaw Surgery. Unfortunately, I was only 12 or 13 at the time. I'm 22 now, and have the braces on. The problem I'm running into is finding an insurance company that will cover the surgery or at least some of it. I was just curious if anyone else out there who has had it, could give me some advice on what I should do. By the way, it is both medical and cosmetic, as my top teeth do not show when I smile, just the tips of them. My doctor had mentioned filing it as a "mental health" claim, because I've actually went through Depression and counseling because of it. Any advice would be wonderful.

I've been getting this weird pain from yesterday night. It was surrounding my bellybutton and sorda everywhere in my stomach. I tried sleeping on my stomache in order to make it go away but it got worse. It was more intense yesterday and today in the morning. Now its less severe but its still there and I sorda feel thats its shifting to the right side (I got two feelings of sharp pain on my right side. I get some really rare pain on my left side. But its really rare) And when I lift my right leg up (wearing my shoes on the stairs, sitting in a certain position where I bend my knee's and lift my legs) it hurts where my stomache is. I read about appendicitis and I have SOME of the symptoms but not all. For one thing, I have pain but its not UNBEARABLE.. And no nausea or vomiting. But I'm really confused and scared of what it might be (I really despise hospitals!!!) I'm 16 and have my period now (but its not cramp pain, I'd know that.. Its a different type of pain)

Most of the websites I have read discuss the potential for beer--especially hoppy ones--to cause allergies, not diminish them. Perhaps it is just the alcohol making me think I feel better...
