I have frequent headaches and have for a few years now. Sometimes I'll get more than one a day and have at least one a day for a few weeks, other times I go a few weeks without one. My headaches aren't debilitating at all but the weird thing is that they move. It may start out at the front of my head and move to the back or side, anywhere on my head is fair game apparently. There is no consistancy in the type of pain, either. Sometimes it's a throbbing pain other times a sharp pain. My mother also has frequent headaches although hers are debilitating and not as frequent and she's on medicine for them. My dentist suggested that my headaches may be from the alignment of my teeth (my upper and lower teeth rest almost directly on top of each other).

Does anyone recognize what the headaches may be from or how to stop them?

My GP thinks I may have this but I haven't a clue what it is!

I'm 19 my older sister sais it's about time I go see the gyno for a cervical cancer check. I don't want to though b/c that means they have to stick something up you and it will hurt. I don't know all the facts but I'm terribly scared b/c I'm not (active).

I stepped on the scale today, 135lbs! That is at least 15lbs over! I'm 5ft even. Before my son 6yrs ago, I weighed 115lbs, then gained 40lbs during the pregnancy and 6yrs later I still haven't lost it all.
I've been walking WAY more than usual lately, as much as I can and I drink lots of water. I've also stayed away from fried food and junk food. I LOVE baked mac and cheese. It's the one thing I have to have. But I'm willing to stop seeing as how I may put my health at risk.

I've gone on diets before, dropped all the way to 125 from 140 in 2mths while working in retail but then gained it all right back. It's harder to lose weight since I sit at a desk now. However, once I'm set on something, I definitely follow through. I just want to make sure I KEEP it that way this time.

Any ideas on what I can do to bring my weight down? I work FT at a health insurance office so I sit for at least 6hrs a day, 5 days a week while at work.

Thanks in advance! :-)

I just recently lost my virginity and it was during my period. I was kind of worried because I'm not on the pill but we used a condom to be safe. I read somewhere that you should check the condom for holes by filling it with water so I did that also. I talked with my mom and I suggested the pill, but neither she nor my boyfriend think it's a good idea because of the incresed risk of cervical cancer. I've already been tested and so has he so STDs are not a concern. I want to make sure I can have the safest sex possible without worrying constantly about risks. Does anyone have any other advice for me?

I will be going to the gynocologist soon and it is my first time... I'm kind of nervous but is something I want to get in the habit of doing now that I am 18 and sexually active. By me being sexually active what can expect, and what can just expect from the whole experience period.

Hi! a few weeks ago, me and my b/f were foolin' around and he ejaculated on my vagina...(we did not have intercourse, but i was laying on top of him when he ejaculated all over me down there) about a week ago, i started the birth control pill, but I only took it for three days and forgot to take it the rest of the time...now i am experiencing heavy bleeding (It started with really light spotting and got heavier), with clots of tissue, and abdominal pain...i've looked up the symptoms of a miscarriage and the side effects of birth control and i have way more signs of a miscarriage than i do with it being caused from birth control...could i have been pregnant and and be experiencing a miscarriage from taking the birth control?? or is it just the birth control wacking out my hormones cause i forgot to take them the rest of the week? i called the nurse, and she said that it was from the birth control but i didn't tell her in detail about my symptoms or what all i was going through.

I've always enjoyed fitness and giving fitness advice, but don't know much about how easy it is to live and support a family as a personal trainer.

I phoned the dentist and was told it was normal and to contact him tomorrow if it has not abated. It has not. Why is this and what can the dentist do about it? The pain is nearly as bad as the abcess that brought about this treatment in the first place.

I watch what I eat, work out 5-6 days a week, but also like to have an occasional glass of wine or two during the week.

What are some of the better choices when it comes to alcohol consumption? I'm not a big beer or liquor drinker, and usually stick to wine.

I've been told that champagne is the best choice since it is more dry than sweet, therefore contains less sugar. Is this true? If not, what do you suggest?
