Lately after having sex with my bf, Ive noticed that the amount of sperm is reducing alot, is there anything he can do to increase it and maybe make it thicker?

i sometimes think im ugly just because i can't take a good picture. that means im one of those that look 10 times uglier in pictures than in person. and i would stick that picture of myself in my mind and think to myself thats how i ugly i truly am to make myself feel bad. i know im not fat for the an average american but im fat in my own mind. i keep comparing myself to when i was in 10th grade, now 12th. in 10th grade i was 85 pounds, 5'1, now im 105 pounds, 5'1. my mom says im being hard on myself but i cant help it. she says gaining weight is part of growing up but i cant make myself accept the way i am. theres always something i want to change and if only i can change it ill be happy. : )

My ex-wife got lice in her pubic hair. She believed she got the lice from having used a public toilet in an area where a lot of homeless people hung out during the day. She is a nurse, so I believed her. Now, my partner tells me that lice in your pubic hair is only transmitted sexually, and my ex-wife was lying to me; i.e., my partner is convinced my ex-wife had an affair, and got the lice that way. Does anyone know if you can get lice from using a public toilet?

A lot of hype is currently being generated by alternative medications. Herbal medicine uses roots, stems, leaves, flowers, or seeds of plants to improve health, prevent disease and treat illnesses.

I'm tired as hell, I know I am. I usually go to bed around 9 since I have to get up early, wake up again around 12, then again at 2, and at 4...but when I wake up at 4, I'm awake for a good couple hours before I finally go back to sleep, (usually around 6). Why does my body keep doing this? I could be getting hte best night's sleep but still have to permanently wake up at 4.

Tonight I went to bed around 10 and here I am, awake at 4. I mean, I wake up on average 5-6 times a night but for some reason I just can't stay asleep around this time. Help?

Im in my early thirties and over the last 11 plus years I have been going to strip clubs to escape. Its started as a hobby and I think it has materialized into a serious addiction. To date, I have dropped in access of $50,000 on strip clubs alone. In addition to that, Ive also visited countless escorts and massage parlors. Financially it has destroyed me . Ive had $300 nights at the strip club, $200 nights, $500 nights, $800 nights, $100 nights , $50 nights, $20 nights , $2000 nights, and so forth and so on. Ive gone there hundreds of times and have a toilet paper worth of ATM receipts and ATM fees to prove it. Im not super rich but when Im in the strip club, money doesnt mean anything. Ive tried to stop for 7 months but I always end up back there worse than ever. Im not sure why I do this and its caused me alot of pain and anguish. How can I turn my life around ? I cant seem to find a balance and normal life like most people. My life is very abnormal. And lastly, am I going to hell ?

I mean, there are so many stupid diet books and products people buy, so many stupid questions asked on here about losing weight, it's just frustrating.

The simple principle is net calorie intake. Take in more calories than you burn, you gain weight. Burn more calories than you eat, you lose weight. Exercise more to burn more calories. Eat less to take in less calories.

Simple formula:

C - E = N

Where C is your calorie intake, E is your calorie consumption, and N is your net calorie level at the end of the day. Obviously, if E is bigger than C, N will be positive, meaning you have excess calories for that day. And if E is bigger than C, N will be negative, meaning that you will have a calorie deficiency for that day. End up with a positive N, those calories will mostly be stored as fat in your body. End up with a negative N, your body takes calories stored in your body (mostly fat) for energy.

I'm just at a loss as to why this simple concept eludes so many people.

I've been hearing a lot of Thyrolar as a safer alternative for Synthroid. I've been having a lot of problems with hair falling out while using Synthroid and I'm only 20 years old. It's bad enough I have a thyroid issue, I don't need to be bald this early in my life. Has anyone else with Hypoactive Thyroidism found a better solution for treatment? What has worked best for you?

Growing up, I was always put to sleep in daytime; parents were drunks and it was easier on them to hollar @ me until I cried myself to sleep, my baysitter had 5 kids of her own, most of who were ill so she'd put us to sleep in front of tv for as long as we slept (6 or more hours). I feel like I am trained to sleep ALL day. Hubby says that I should just grow out of it, all of a sudden. We've been together over 15 yrs; he knew what I was like b4 he proposed.... Thanks for all clear understanding conversations on this matter, regardless of which way you think is best.

I have heard that it is a sign of weakness for a man to ask for help, other people think it's a sign of strength. Personally, I think it's totally stupid to pretend you know everything and are perfect at everything when you aren't. Every person has strengths and weaknesses. That's why we need one another. I'm in a situation where my wife died last year, and there were obviously things I was strong in and she was weak in, and things where I was weak and she was strong.. but now in the areas where she's gone and not meeting those needs, I find that I'm having trouble and I need help, but I don't have any help. I've refused to ask for help because I've found that people are willing to help you and meet your needs, but there's a cost in terms of respect, and it's not worth it to me to go and admit that I can't do stuff, and I need help, and all that. I'd rather injure myself over and over instead of humiliate myself and be disrespected.
make any sense?

I have recently discovered that i have a very odd shaped head. I have a very defined ridge in the back of my skull, it is hard to explain but I am wondering if anyone can tell me if they have or have seen anything similar. My sister is a nurse and is literally scarying the hell out of me. Anyone have any idea? Thanks.

I am ALWAYS cold. I'm shivering as I write this out. I don't think I'm sick -- I've always been this way. I'm not anemic or anything, but is there some way to stay warm other than bundling up everyday?

any ideas? i get severe head aches, had an MRI done 6-7 months ago, and a biopsy behind the protuding eye. its not cancer they say, but it has caused my eye to protrude about 3mm from the other and the whole side of my head/face to also push out. took prendisone for 5 months with no change, have lost vision and color vision too. not total vision loss, just about double the other eye (from 20/20 to 20/40+) looking at the MRI you can definately see a large mass in my head, pushing my brain out of the way, and my face out. the doc.s don't say much, but shrug and its not cancer. I do have graves disease, but they do not think it is the notorious "graves" eyes, becuase of that lovely growth in my head. the head aches are getting real bad again, and i swear it affects my memory and thinking sometimes. could just be the pain, i don't know. any thoughts out there? otherwise i am healthy, never get sick or have colds, lately alot of muscle ache, could just be my age though? i am 46 yrs.
