I know it does if you're using it to keep from getting pregnant. But I'm 16, not sexually active, and I'm on it for hormone regulation and so my period is lighter/cramps aren't as extreme.

I've been taking it anytime between 9:30 pm and 11 pm. Is this a problem?

Is it true that a doctor could find out whether or not a girl has been having sexual intercouse? If so, then how?

my mom has a prescription from her doctor to quit smoking, but she won't use it cause she still wants to smoke! she goes through more than a pack a day, and i found out dogs can get cancer too!!! which isn't suprising cause my former dog died of nasal cancer. :( she smokes everywhere!!! i can't stand it! it limits me to stay in my room all day or go outside because i can't even go downstairs without smelling smoke!!! she puts my whole family at risk of cancer, and i care about my mom. i don't want her to die of cancer or anything either. sometimes i just feel like throwing all the lighters, ashtrays, and cigarettes away! but i won't because i'll get into trouble. i yell at her everyday, but she doesn't care. she says she will pick a day to quit, but it has been over a year, and she has smoked for more than 20 years!!!! i want help!

I feel like a dummy. But then again my bad grades in school were beyond my control. How could you make a D in sex ed? It's an easy A, but because of the situations I've been going through all summer made me just depressed & immobile. Can't get outta bed-type depressed. Well, I guess you would expect bad grades from a student who's been out of school for a while, & having mommy & brother misuse her money, then being kicked out & threatened & then becoming homeless & then being kicked out the shelter for not going to church b/c I had to study, & then getting my own apartment & buying a car that turned out to be trash. & being just let out the mental hospital in April from someone trying to stab me & then me attempting suicide. Maybe I wasn't ready to go back to school. I'm a college grad. but I'm going back to school to try to strengthen my GPA but it looks like I'm setting my expectations too high & will never make it b/c of my mental disability.

I already wear glasses and have an almost new perscription for these glasses, but I find that driving at night and especially at night in the rain, its very difficult to see clearly as light appears as this colour bloom, nothing appears really sharp and anything that contains artificial light appears to be wonky in general. I have mentioned this to my eye doctor and he really wasnt any help. I'm at the point now where I feel unconfotable on the road at night especially if the roads are busy. Is there a solution to this?

When you had your first period, who did you tell first if you told anybody at all?

I didn't tell anyone. I figured it wasn't worth the time. The only reason my mom found out was because I had to buy more pads after I used all of the ones that she made us carry around for emergency.

Have you ever wondered why schizophrenic people yell and scream at the air? Ever wonder why they are able to see things that we claim are not there? Ever wonder why they do things that the "Voices" tell them to do?
Are they really crazy or are their senses keenly sensitive to the unknown forces of the evil spirit world?

This afternoon I had a cavity filled near the front of my mouth.. and now a small area above the filling (on the gum) is black/brown-ish.

I know it was a composite filling (whatever that means?) I tried brushing my teeth, flossing, rinsing.

Will this ugly looking spot go away soon?! Should I call my dentist?

I don't want to smile now.. =(

I once heard from a female speaker that pain from kidney stones that she had were far worse than any contraction she has had. What is your opinion about this and is there pain worse than childbirth?

My mother is insane. She divorced my dad when i was liek 3 months.. for good reson tho, and now im 15 nd its just me nd her. Money's tight, she constantly blames everything on me. She drinks too much and getsviolent. She compares me to my friends and calls me horrific things. She sets quotas for money that i cant reach. She yells at me to get a better job, but the only one i can find is at an art studio which is sparatic work nd i only get $20 for 2 hours, which isnt bad, but she wont accept it. She takes all the money i make anyway. She blames me for the divorce, and tells me im a failure and i will get nowhere in life. She says i cant compare with my friends and she just broke my cell phone, and i think my finger. It could just be jammed tho.Shes always throwing me out only to retrieveme 10 min later and then throw me out again.

Just curious. And any other factors that would be involved such as exercising or not.

I am not trying to lose weight. I have read all about what you have told me but i was just wondering how many hours you can go without eating and lose 1 pound? If your not exercising per say.

i just turned 14 amd i am male. In christmas, my dad bought me basketball shoes that were size 8 1/2. I was only 13 1/2 and the top of the shoe had a half an inch distance between my toe. So i kept using that shoe until my feet grew 2 months later. my toe reached the end of the shoe but i kept wearing them. So my feet kept growing (i think) and it kinda felt tight but then it stop anoying me. In july, i realized that i was developing hammer toes, so i have been developing hammer toes for 4 months when the shoe stop fitting me. but it is not that severe cuz they are not curved enough and they can straighten very easily.

My q's are:
1. Is it true that if ur feet stop growing, ur whole body will stop growing too?
2. will hammer toes stop my feet from growing?
3. will i grow in height and in foot length?
4. what is the treatment for hammer toes?
5. will my toes straighten naturaly?
6. will i be ok?

I have semi stained (yellow) teeth. I'd like to get my teeth whiter. I'd also like to have my two front teeth because they are too long because of bonding. I don't want to have four or six fake looking bright teeth on top though and the rest look even more yellow.

And the thing is I was eating, and I never felt weak or unhappy. I was happy all the time, and had tons of energy. Is anyone proud of me? Also, I think I should start my own diet title and plan, so other people can do it! haha. what do you think?

Oh, and check out my blogs, on my 360 site.
