Hi everyone I’m 14 years old and I have only had my period once. It was over a year ago though and I don’t think it’s normal for anyone to go this long without having another period. What should I do?

What are some of your favorite was of dealing with the cramps, moodiness and all the other "fun" things associated with having your period. I like to settle down with a heating pad and some Flipz or Nutella.

Ok so Here's the LONG Version here. I had a mole removed from my arm 2 weeks ago. I was using Neosporin for a week and it started itching and breaking out BAD! well the doctor gave me a perscription for an antibiotic ointment. The pharmacy accidentally gave me the antibiotic cream the itching & hives were gone! Well I had to get my refill and it is in ointment form and guess what I am breaking back out. I think I am allergic to PETROLATUM! So does anybody know of an over the counter antibiotic cream that I could use if I ever had to in the future. (BTW I Do see my doctor in the morning so it isn't going to be a case of "GO SEE A DOCTOR" I already have an appointment) I am just wanting to know if there is an antibiotic cream I could use that has NO Petro in it if ever in the future I need an antibiotic ointment/cream again. Thanks! :)

I have a friend who went through some severe trauma, and then more recently grief, and she considers this kind of body work - reiki, massage and other physical care to be very valuable, when you are in effect throwing off psychological and psychic burdens. Have you heard of anything like this before?

My right pupil is bigger then my left pupil and I wanted to know if it was a astigmatism or is it just bigger, and idk if you can get contacts when one pupil is bigger then the other. I wanted to get contacts, and my parents said I wouldn't because my eyes where messed up to much. I wanted to prove to them that I could if it is just a astigmatism!

What are all the ways you can get bad cholesterol in your body? I know food is one...but try to be a little specific with that one...like saying the certain food groups if nothing else. I'm sure there are too many to write...but a few examples would be very appreciated. Also is it true you can inherit like a bad cholesterol making gene? Can it come from family? And any other ways you can get it would be appreciated. I know almost nothing about it so don't be too generic. Thanx in advance to anyone that answers.

One day I was at a floor meeting in college (in September) and all the sudden, i saw black for a few seconds (and no one else did)....I asked them if they had......or if the lights flickered...they did not. So, I rushed to call my mom on the phone. Told her what happened. Next day, I went home and went to the doctor and my blood pressure was 140/100. Ever since then, I've been taking Loprssor 2 times a day. My doctor put me on HCZT, but it didn't help much. So now we're trying Prinivil.

**** Why did I see black for a few seconds??***
Scared me SOOO bad!!!!!!!!!!

I mean something like this: I can type in a food such as a carrot, and the calculator will automatically put in the appropriate calories? And give me a total after I enter each food?

I am continually developing allergic reactions to medications and it is really getting bad. Tonight, I took aspirin and broke out in hives and my eyes swelled together. That leaves only Tylenol for me to take when I have pain. What happens when I develop an allergy to it? I have yo-yo ANA, speckled. C-3 and C-4 is yo-yo as well, so I have not been diagnosed with Lupus.

I have had these chest pains since I was about 8 and doctors can't figure it out. They usually come up after exercise, caffine, or a lot of stress. It hurts to breath in and it feels better if I just hold my breath all together. It lessens the pain if I lay in weird positions like twisting my body. Tylonol and stuff like that help but not much. Anyone have any idea what it could be? I am now 19 and I'm tired of not knowing.

I can not take anything for pain. Is there something wrong with me? I could not find the tylenol and took 2 aspirin instead. I have never been allergic to aspirin before. I broke out in hives. My hands itched and my face and the skin on my head swelled badly.
My eyelids were the worse.
