I just started day four and I am a bit nervous about taking the night dosage. I have read so much about people having a hard time sleeping. When is the best time to take my night time dose? Any other thoughts, experiences and quit success stories would also be appreciated! Also I had a couple glasses of wine last night and I felt DONE! Is this okay, and has it happened to anyone else?

Why is it that people ask tons of medical questions on here that could be easily answered by calling their doctors? It would take less time and one would receive a better answer. Experiences are one thing... but asking "what is it?" is something else.

I have had three children, and my lower stomach muscles, just below my belly button, seem to be impossible to isolate in any excerzise. I can work out the upper stomach just fine. My stomach is pretty flat from the belly button up, but the lower stomach is impossible for me to work out. I think I have no strength in them at all. I physically cannot do sizzor kicks using my lower stomach. I can only do them using my lower back muscles. Anyone have any suggestions? I will need to start out slow. I don't think those muscles have any strength at all in them. Thanks.

My girlfriend has been getting her period later and later this summer. She was recently given birth control from her ob/gyn and told to take it the Sunday after she got her next one. We had sex after she was already a week late, and when she was two weeks late she took a pregnancy test that came out negative. Shes started having cramps that she said feels like her period is coming, but it still hasn't. I think if she isn't pregnant and also been having the pains associated with having her period, she should probably try and eat something that helps induce it. Does anyone know of any food or drinks that are known to induce a woman's period? (She will be taking another pregnancy test to make sure, though.)

I started having my periods when I was twelve, and it was regular for awhile, but lately (I just turned 20) it's been kind of wonky and skipping months, sometimes one, sometimes two. This has been going on for the past few years, though, and I never really thought it was anything to worry about since I didn't know anyone who had a regular cycle at that point. However, now I'm a little worried that there might be something wrong; I'm not sexually active, either, so I know I'm not pregnant.

Is it still normal for girls my age to skip periods this often? Should I go to the doctor and get checked out?

Thanks a lot!

When I need to check my blood gloucose in public, should I go to a restroom or other quiet place? Sometimes I catch people staring at me suspiciously. I also check it at my desk after meals. Most of my co-workers know I am diabetic and, as far as I know, have not complained to a supervisor about my testing at my desk. I would like to hear from everyone; diabetics, where do you test when in public and non-diabetics, would it disturb you to see someone checking their blood gloucose at a neighboring table in a restaurant or at their desk?

This is just a survey. I would like your opinion about at what age you think is alright for a girl to lose her virginity.

Please state your age and gender. Thanks.

tomorrow i am going to one of my friends boating parties that he has been planning for a while now, and we are going to be tubing, skiing, swimming, and wakeboaring off and on all day. I really hate wearing tampons because i dont like how they feel when i remove them.
First question: why are they uncomfortable to remove when they are saturated?
Second: I Know that you should change your tampon right after swimming, but i will be on a boat and i will keep going in and out of the water. If i change it every time i go in/out of the water i will use a whole box lol! not to mention go to the bathroom a hundred times! What do i do?

Please only respond if you KNOW, no common sense please people seem to be lacking that these days.


I here you can only Burn fat buy getting you're heart rate up very high for atleast like 15 minutes or somthing, and you CANT burn it by dieting.

That just doesnt sound right to be but ive heard so ma ny differnt theorys on it i don't know witch to belive.

I exercise mostly wieght lifting, some sit and pushups but nothing that gets my heart rate near as high as ive heard is required.

So my question is does fat burn by dieting? IT must right? Thats what i was thinking but poeple keep telling me that only exercise will do it...

I simply CANNOT make the time to do that much work, i have asmtha its very hard to do anyhting with an increased heart weight.

Can i lose my fat by dieting?

An adult friend of mine told me that it was a proven fact that your period stops when you get in water. (like, swimming) She said she has swam before without a tampon while on her period and it stopped. But I've been told that the only way you can get in a pool when your on your period is to wear a tampon or you'll bleed in the pool. So is my friend mistaken or is it true?

An aquantaince of my family died yesterday, of a suspected drugs overdose. The mother has told my family that her son had white powder all over him when he was found, which we are all suspecting is cocaine. He is a body builder and was known to use steriods. The mother doesn't know if it was just the Cocaine was the cause, or could the steriods have also contributed to his death?
