The only way of 'treating' PCOS that I have heard of so far, is to take the drug 'Clomid'. However, I have heard that it causes depression as well as mood swings.

I suffer from a sever case of PCOS, but also from mild depression and God knows I'm the moodiest person around! :-D

Are there any other ways of treating PCOS, besides Clomid?

I'm a 14 year old girl, my doctor told me to get a blood test done because im kind of over weight, and then i got the results in the mail and I'm kind of thick, like my body, but I'm not HUGE, and the results say nothing of being diabetic but it does have a collum for it and i dont know if it says i am for sure a diabetic it says to set an appointment to "talk" about the results i am going tomorrow, and im really scared that she'll say im diabetic i have cried so much, because im scared and my parents say that she probably just want to talk about my diet and excersise but i still worry. Any good advice? Is diabetes something really bad? I have no idea what to think any more. =/

I would like to go to medical school and be a doctor because I would like to help others, and after many doctors having a large impact on my life I would really like to, but I have a chronic pain disability which is often times diabilitating so I don't know if medical school is possible for me. I'm currently a sophomore in high school. Any suggestions of what I could do to make it through medical school or alternatives that would still give me the same satisfaction of helping people (I would like to work with people that have the same or similar conditions to me)? I have a neurlogical condition which causes my pain.

I have a problem with crooked teeth. My top teeth are not perfect but that is nothing compared to my bottom teeth.

I have 5 teeth that are not straight that line up about the middle of my lip. When I was incarcracted a dentist told me that there was this 1 tooth that blocking the lining up of my bottom teeth and if that was pulled the other teeth would fall into line and would look a lot better.

What is the average price for teeth pulling in Dollars in AMerica, specifically New York.

Since the past year, I have dropped forty pounds. I have also gotten down to a 31 inch waist, but there is one thing hogging me: I can't get rid of any side fat. It's been in my way long enough. I eat right, and I run six days a week (at least three miles on my six running days). I cannot stress enough how much this bothers me. How can I get rid of it?

When I was three, I fell out of a {parked} car and my front teeth got knocked out. I had to learn how to make my "s" and "sh" sounds from the right side of my mouth, I know how to make my "sh" sounds normally. But whenever I make an "s" sound, my mouth kind of goes to the right, or my jaw does, something like that.
I've tried to make the "s" sound normally without my jaw moving, but it makes me feel like I have a lisp or something, or it sounds weird.
Oh, AND I have an expander on the roof of my mouth.

Are there any simple methods that can help me fix this?

i'm 16, 135 pounds, and 5'2". i want to be 120 by Dec. 29th but i'm not sure if thats possible.

i eat really healthy. and i enjoy exercising. a typical day for me would be:

*breakfast: low fat yogurt, a banana, a glass of skim milk
*lunch: a home made sandwhich (2 bread, 1 tb miracle whip, lettuce, 2 thin slices of turkey lunch meat) carrots w/ a little dressing and a large apple. sometimes strawberries with vanilla yogurt for dessert. and water
*snack: oatmeal or string cheese with a granola bar and water
*supper: a veggie wrap (or some sort of veggie satteed in soy sauce/ stir fry sauce) glass of skim milk, normally some sort of fruit (like apple sauce) and lean meat: like chicken (the healthy kind with no fat)

as for exercise i like to do 30-40 minutes of walking on the tredmill a day, dance for 30 minutes a day. and once a week (sunday nights) go to an indoor soccer thing which lasts for 2 hours

so what do you think?? how fast could i lose the weight??

I stopped taking it a day into it (after taking it for four months) because I lost the pack and didn't pursue getting a new one because I wasn't really happy with how it made me feel. But now I feel horrible. Going through a tampon an hour, mind numbing cramps, feel feverish (I also have a cold) but I'm just wondering if this is something I should call my dr about. I know it's normal and all... but these cramps are bad enough to bring me to tears.

This afternoon I found an object that looks like a spark plug and a small pair of scissors in my daughter's room. I also found a pair of scissors that have long points on them. The spark plug thing looks like it has tobacco or something in it. Is my daughter smoking pot? I guess that explains why she doesn't have a job.

On wednesday night,I believe,she was dreaming about bunnies tugging at her legs but then they started to get aggresive,so much that she woke up but still felt something pulling her legs so she was just kicking whatever.she didnt think much of it. the next night however,she couldn't sleep & the dream came to mind.as soon as she remembered she felt something hit her shoulder back.then everything started to shake & she thought it was an earthquake [live in ca].she tried to reach for me, thinking i'd probably be scared but she couldnt move.she was being held down & couldnt move.the shaking went on for 10 secs then stopped for about a sec then started again for 5 secs. then it stopped.she just laid there thinking about what just happend & then she heard a little boys voice saying 'mom mommy mom'.she heard him say it like 6 times & she thought it was my little nephew & so she went downstairs to see what was wrong.he was w/my mom & she woke when my sister was asking my nephew what was wrong.

What cleaners can i use/make that will get those stains off? Can i use something as hardcore as Fantastik or Comet or one of those household cleaners maybe?
