I started a low carb diet to get rid of my post-pregnancy weight. Its working great (lost 16 lbs in a few months). But I have noticed that my energy level has hit rock bottom. I'm almost positive that its because I cut back on my carb intake. Anyone know if that is right?

So last night my boyfriend got a little rough down there with his hands
It hurt really bad so imidiatley after I went to the bathroom to find the left lip of my vagina to be swollen (this has happened to me before after a rough night, and no it is not an STD nor an allergic reaction)

this morning I woke up to find the lip had swelled even more... its about 3 or 4 times the size of the other one, it is EXTREMELY painful, its excruciating to pee, and its difficult to walk

Has anyone had this happen? What can I do to make the swelling go down??? It hurts very bad and I need some help
and going to the doctor is not an option.
1. I know there is nothing seriously wrong with me, this has happened before
2. I'm 17 and my mom doesn't know I have sex =/

So can anyone help me???

I kinda just like to sit and be sensual with myself by massaging my breasts. I do it only in private by pulling up my shirt or something. Anyone else do this?

It started as only 2 little bumps that I thought were ingrown hairs. Now I have about 15 and they itch and hurt. I got them the day after I went swimming in Lake Michigan, but that could just be coincidental. Any suggestions as to what these may be would be appreciated! sorry this is gross..haha

I dropped a dresser drawer on my ankle on Sunday and it's still swollen and bruised and hurts more today than when I did it. I thought at first it was just a sprain, but its' been four days of Motrin, elevation, ice and heat and it's not getting any better, what should I do?

I have an interdental lisp, meaning my tongue goes beyond my front teeth when I speak. Does anyone know how to get rid of it? Or make it less noticable? Or is it just my braces? I've only known about my lisp for about 5 months now, got my braces a year ago.

I'm looking at the keyboard and the computer screen, but my eyes keep getting blurry every few minutes. Yes I have very bad vision. But Im nearsighted so it has nothing to do with that. I just got in from swimming, and the chemicals were strong. My eyes started stinging, which was the reason I started fighting my little brother for the goggles. I got em, but he was getting impatient to get em back, so I took em off and got out cause my eyes were hurting. Could this be the effect of the chemicals, making my eyes blurry, cause I havent splashed my face with water like I usually do after getting out. This has never happened to me before. Its like when you go to the eye doctor and get your eyes dilated, only less intense, I can go in the sun, less frequent, and not as uncomfortable. Is this the pool's chemical water, or did something happen?

I am 13 years old an weigh 82 pounds, and I frequently suffer from anorexia and bulimia. Everytime I think it is taken care of, something bad happens in my life and I pick one of the two. I know what happens to you when you have an eating disorder, so I don't want to hear a lecture. I just want to know how I can keep it from coming back after I get over it. PLEASE HELP ME! I don't want to go to a doctor.

He is 24 years old and very healthy. Earlier today he started acting weird and walked away from the living room into a dark room and held his head, then when we got worried he got angry and said he wants space.

Now he's telling us that he barely remembers what happened. He says he walked into a room to find something, and then got dizzy and started feeling really weird. He said things became really difficult and he had to really think hard and concentrate hard for simple things and he was getting confuse. He says he is forgetting things and barely remembers the incident where he got angry. Now he's insisting we leave him alone and let him sleep, but he is still really weird I can see it. He is not as assertive as he normally is and kinda just lay there and waited for us to leave...

Please help. Is there any danger? What could it be? Is there any cause for concern? Could it be possible that he got a concussion or something? I have no idea and am really worried. Please help...

I have PCOS and had heard that this drug can help level out the sugers and hear that it could help with weight loss, if any one could let me know their experience and the dosage. I go to the doctor tomorrow and plan on asking regarding metformin but just wanted some information first.

It started off, I woke up with a sore throat. It was completely annoying, but atleast I still had my normal voice that time. But, later on we went to a party, and my sore throat decreased. Although, I noticed my throat & voice were super dry and people couldn't hear me so well. I really don't know what's wrong with my freaking voice & I really want to get to talk all I want now. Please help..
