On birth control are you still protected the entire last week (of inactive pills) even if you stopped bleeding after the first three days? This means you go for several DAYS on inactive pills, what if you begin to ovulate during this time?

I'm 37, and had a partial hysterectomy last January removing everything but one sad dead ovary (wtf they didn't take it too is beyond me). I have always had night sweats since I was kid, sweating like roofer in New Mexico during a heatwave in August. Sometimes it would get so bad my Mom would change my sheets in the middle of the night. It has gotten noticibly worse. The problem is, the last few days I have been experiencing rage, without any sort of provocation. I won't harm myself or my kids, but am very wary of the next dumba$$ who wants to cut me off in traffic. I'm coming unhinged! This is soooo not like me, I'm very easy going and it usually takes alot to get me riled up. My sense of humor, my best trait is almost completely gone. I don't feel depressed, just pi$$ed the f.ck off. Is this a 'normal' menopausal symptom? I called my OB/GYN and they can't see me for a month. I'm scared that will be too long and I will be in jail by then. HELP!

My boyfriend and I have done it twice and both times I had to make him stop because it was extremely painful. I'm really scared it's going to hurt a lot again. We use lubricated condoms and neither of us have any extra lube. What can I do to minimize the pain?

For about a week my poop was really dark colored, and I think it was because of the pepto bismol i was taking. I've been having light cramping, and when I went to the bathroom today, I noticed my stool was a pale yellow color. Its not COMPLETELY yellow, but I noticed a yellow tint to it...This isn't BAD is it? I dont have health insurance for about 2 weeks, and it sort of concerned me.
I haven't been vomiting, and i've been eating everyday. I just have slight cramping in my stomach.

I was wondering if you drank nothing but lets say 1 liter of water a day for 1 week, how would it effect your body? Would your metabolism get screwed up? I've heard that people have had nothing but water for as long as 2 months. The average person woud lose about 4 pounds, a lot more if you're overweight or active. Health experts needed!

do u thing the biggest loser is unfair, i do , people loose eway more pounds than another person but at the weigh in it is all about the body % you lost , you have to work harder to loose more weight, if somebody is just a little thinner and loose less weight than another person they will have a bigger body% loss, that is what happened witht he elimination of Nell from the blue team last week, he lost 10 pounds which was more than anyopne elses in that week and he was below the yellow line because he was a little bigger than anyone else, it doesnt seem fair that he had to work hard to loose 10 pounds and get sent home while everyone just lost 9 or 5 pounds but stayed above the line. Who agrees that they should judge by the weight loss and not the body % loss.

I have real long periods, usually last 12-15 days . I had sex, protected, on the 8th day (no blood at time of sex) and the period never came back. Is there a reason the period just ended early? Could I be pregnant?

Almost 2 weeks ago I started having a cough...Its progressed since than into a really bad cough and sore throat. I've pretty much tried all of the over the counter meds as well as drank lots of tea, juice and water and taken vitamins. It still doesnt get better. Sometimes I cough so hard I have trouble breathing. Than today I started having a sharp pain on the left mid/upper side of my back. It hurts whenever I breathe and sometimes when I move. Is this serious enough to go see a doctor because I have no insurance and there are no free clinics where I live and my only choice is to go to the ER. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I'm reading up on the extraction method of a tooth, and it says that the infection can sometimes null the novocaine. I just got my antibiotics today, and my appointment is scheduled for tomorrow. Should I post pone, or should the novocaine work regardless? I'm going to an actual oral surgeon, so even then, he may have laughing gas.
