It's probably my 6th day of my period. Which is normal for me since I have long periods. I'm 13, a virgin, height 165 cm (5'5) and weight 43 kg (96 lbs) Recently started school. Now the thing is I had dark brown period for the first three days or so, now i'm having lightish brown period. My periods are always quite irregular, but the in between cycle days are 20-30 days. I had my period for 1 year and a half. Last period I had lasted 5 days quite heavy and red, but for 4 days or so it was lighter , and brownish. What I am having now, is it just light period, irregular period? Or is it something serious? Should I go to the doctors and be worried?

is this true?

my blood type is O negative so I cannot receive blood from any group but my own type, however, others can have my blood in the form of transfusion with no problems whatsoever.

Therefore, does this mean that if I become pregnant and the child's blood group is a different group to mine, I will become ill?

I got tired at 9:45 last night. I was lying around in bed until 1 AM, when I had way too much energy and started walking around. For about 45 minutes -I think- I've been online. Previously I tried meditation, reading, listening to relaxing music, changing the temperature of my room, putting socks on, taking them off, just lying there, and trying to convince myself I absolutely had to stay awake because that used to work, a hot shower -taking a bath requires removing the spiders from the tub, they run when the shower water starts-, about a quart of chamomile tea, and visualizing first sleep, then general relaxing stuff. No luck.

Meaning I've been up for about eight hours, tired as all hell but unable to sleep. I don't think its dietary, the only sugar I had today was some ice cream at about 4:30 and canteloupe for breakfast.

I've got to stay up today but I know that tomorrow I'm still going to have trouble. What can I do, if medicine is unavailable?

I'm not on any meds.

Im curious about the pill.... I know it varies and there are different pills etc but in relation to that.. How much weight does the pill usually make you put on? Is it hard to lose the weight/not gain the weight? Where do you usually put it on? Do you get bigger boobs without putting on weight anywhere else? How common is this? If you get the pill that clears acne, how well does it do it? And will it clear it everywhere, eg face anddd back? Any other stuff to add would be helpful! xx

My family has a huge debt and my parents are constantly fighting about it, I'm left to take care of my twin bro & sis that are 4 all the time, and our lawyer that my parents hate is one of my best friends dad and now he knows I know! Lately whenever I hear my parents fight I get headaches, stomaches, and now I can't sleep because I stay awake thinking about it. I don't know what to do and how to de-stress. I'm normally a really relaxed person but this is making me insane and I'm scared I'm gonna give myself a stomach ulser and go CRAZY!! On the outside and around other people I'm so calm and everyone things I'm perfect and that my life is too, I never let people see my cry or stressed, it's too hard for me because I'm the one that keeps my family together and is always there for people with THEIR problems.

UGGHGHGH HELP PLEASE!!!!

I have a real bad issue with itchiness with Percocet, so I am finding it really isnt a good med for me to take for pain. I am getting my wisdom teeth out in a few days and I was wondering if anyone else had this itchiness problem and found a med that didnt make them itch and could tell me? I have a lazy doctor, LOL, he asked me "what pain meds will work for you?" so I need to know what ones will. Vicodin made me puke BTW, so thats out.

I am currently on the Depo shot, which I get every three months. But I have been told by a friend that, if I'm on it too long, it can harm my ability to have children in the future. Since I'll be in college for at least another two years and want to start a career before I have a kid, I'll probably be on birth control for another two years or so. What is the safest method (patch, pill, or shot)? I already have my reservations about the patch (due to irritating side-effects my sister had) and the pill because I'm afraid I'll forget to take it. But, if I must, I'll give them a shot. Also, would it be a good idea to periodically switch up methods or something?

so i know that most guys look at porn and i don't necessarily have a problem with that...i've watched it on occasion too. however, i'm just wondering, is there a normal amount that guys watch or at what point in time would you classify it to be too much? just curious, my bf looks at it a few times a day every day....too much or normal?
