The Dr's have given her these little white pills to take to make her start and after awhile they do but, the next month no period. This has been going on for so long that she and me are kind of afraid that she may never have children some day. what should we do?: the doc's say not to worry.

My husband has just developed shingles and the doctor told him my son could catch chicken pox or shingles from him. My son is three years old. He is not vaccinated for Chicken Pox. How long is the incubation period...when can I expect him to come down with it if he is going to get it?

I had a cyst around the area of my tailbone twice, finally about 2 years I got surgery to remove it. Since then it hurts to sit long periods of time on the floor and I can't do sit ups, it feels like i'm sitting on a bone. Help, please!

She says it's about 3 inches to the left of her belly button. She was wondering what organ is in this area (ovaries?) and she was wondering if she should go get it checked out. She says it's been happening for a week and it's on and off. She says it's like a dull pain. She compares it to a tooth ache.

I had a root canal. My dentist didn't even tell me anything about having a crown until after she finished the root canal-then she told me I need to schedule the crown prep. Needless to say, I was quite surprised because I thought I was all finished. Now I have to pay for a crown. My insurance will pay for 50%. I have to pay my part in 2 payments. I was told my part will be about $300. I 'm not to happy about having to take $150 with me for my next two visits.

And if so, what are the effects on your appearance when you take it? Like do your eyes turn red, pupils dialate, sweating, paleness or anything?

And don't tell me that you can't get high off of nutmeg, of course you can, just google it.

Exercise is critical to both bone and muscle health. What is the impact of aerobic exercise on muscles, bones and joints? How about weight lifting?

We're going to order a pizza today, and we can't decide what we want - A stuffed crust cheese pizza or a white pizza (no sauce) with tomatoes. So we've decided to order the healthier one.

I'm guessing the white pizza, but I need a second opinion. Is pizza sauce good for you? Or will the tomatoes make up for it?
