I am 13 and 5'7 I want to know when I'm 14 how tall will I be? My mom is 5'6 and my dad is 5'8. Can anyone please tell me what will my next height be at age 14. And I also want to know how many inches do boys grow each year? I also eat carrots and drink milk to boost up my height when I get 14.

and not have the same level of that white stuff come out each time?
Is it only good to, when you got that white stuff built up inside of you?
Or can you do it as much as you like regardless of what your body has inside?

For about a week now out of nowhere I have been getting this random taste in my mouth which can almost exactly be described as mothballs. At first I thought it was in my head, but now I can certainly say it is not. It's really disgusting and it comes and goes randomly throughout the day wherever I am. Is this a symptom of anything? Should I see a doctor?

So last week my boyfriend fractured his ankle. As a result of that he now has a cast on his left foot. A couple of days later he stated walking with both his legs but not putting too much pressure on his fractured one.

Is it ok for him to walk on it? Supposedly the doctor told him it was ok to walk on it after a couple of days. I just want to make sure. Maybe he heard wrong and by walking on it he is making his fracture worse. Someone please answer :(

I have a few black stains on my teeth. They are very small and are in the shape of a circle. They are pain free and are not sensitive. Is this a major problem?

So my friend hit her head really hard againest a wall shelf, now she has a huge wlet on the back of her head which of course hurts. Is there any chance that she got a concussion, and is there any reason why she shouldn't go to sleep?

I'd love to hear anyone's experience with a simular situation. As she thinks sitting in the ER for hours and being told to just take some advil is too likly and costly.

She hasn't got to sleep all night.

I've already dropped about 20 lbs...How do you avoid eating meals with your families though? I wish they would always believe me when I tell them "I alreadt ate", but they don't. It's getting more and more suspicious to them and I think they know what I'm up to [obviously because I've lost weight] but I rarely eat at home anymore, but I won't throw up my food, so don't tell me that lol...And also, if you're still in school, how do you avoid eating lunch? It's not like I want the food, in fact, there's nothing I want less, but I hate when other girls [and guys] criticize me for not eating...I don't want to eat, but I know they'll try and get me help if I don't. Btw, i'm 17 years old. Thanks so much for your advice! -Monica

I'm 13, and i'm not using them for sex or what ever, but i have to use them because of my really long periods. I have to take them for about 3/4 months. So what are the side effects? Will is change me mentally? What are they used for? Pleae n thanks!

I still have a bruise on my leg after 5 months. Why hasn't it gone? It's like a big black/blue mark on my leg but when I first did it (I accidently fell down some stairs) my leg was so swollen I could hardly bend it to walk up the stairs for about 3 days. Is it just a case of being patient or is there a medical reason why it's taking so long to heal? Thanks xx

I recently had a blood test and my fasting glucose was 102, which means I'm high-risk for developing diabetes. I weight 122 pounds and am 5'6". I have a very balanced diet, and don't even like sweets or sodas. I exercise several times a week and walk a lot. I have very low cholestrol and even lower blood pressure. I'm 36 and don't have any history of diabetes in my family.
Is there anything I can do to prevent diabetes? Is it hopeless?
