Women's Health - October 2006

following ovulation (over two weeks ago) This is now the first day of my period and it is still very high and soft, the bleeding is very light at the moment, more of a brownish colour. Could this be implantation bleeding? I know the cervix is supposed to drop and feel harder after ovulation,and during menstruation, so I'm just confused as to why it hasn't. Any similar experiences or ideas? It's quite difficult to feel as it's quite high, and is really soft.

The pain is on entry and I can feel it when it hurts her - like a pulling or snapping sensation. We have been having regular sex for over 9 months now and do't know how to help the problem. The problem does not go away even when she is really turned on. and it makes no dfference how slow I go when we start. Any advice ??

I am in the high-risk (and I mean HIGH RISK) group for breast cancer since my mother had it several times(6-7 times). Because of this, I can't take birth control (for my periods or if I ever have sex) because it contains estrogen, or anything else that contains estrogen. What alternatives are there, if any, that are just as effective as birth control (besides abstinence and condoms)?

Ok my body is freaking me out, last month I thought I was pregnant because for the first time ever since I've had my period. My breast were really swore on the sides, when usually my nipples just start hurting. Now here it is the next month and my breast are hurting again on the sides, not my nipples yet! Can a mature woman explain this to me? I've never had this before and I've been having my period since I was 10yrs.

It seems like every symptom these days, is either your getting your period, or your pregnant. Every symptom could be one or the other, making this process just the more complicated.


My stomach looks "pregnant" but i have been eating more so possibly the pouchy appearence could be from over eating and weight gain.
My stomach is Hard .. See last statement
I randomly am feeling bloated (but never feel bloated unless i have my period)
It seems like ive developed acid reflex? I ate spicy food today, and my throat has been burning all night.
Cramping, But could be ovulating or getting my period?
I am late this month but the past cupple months i have been on time
I would not be as "big" 1 month preg. so im assuming if i am, i got normal periods the last couple of months being pregnant.

I plan to get a preg. test in the morning, b/c i know my responses will indicate preg. test and to see a doctor to confirm.

Just hoping to see what people think before i go out tomorow.

Not that this is important, although I think it's a funny story: When I was about in 6th grade I used to be jealous of my friend because she had boobs and I was still well, yeah. Anyways so for my 12th birthday I wished that I could have a more "womanly" figure. And now I am cursed with my wish... one thing girls: Be careful what you wish for! LOL

So now on to my problem lol. I have a medium size, well maybe a smaller body frame but my boobs are fricking huge! It's bad because they are like 38D or DD I havent checked in a while and my back is hurting constantly all the time. My friend told me about a boob reduction but I don't think I really want to have it because I'm not sure I'll regret it. Does anyone else have any suggestions?

I got information on it from my doctor but I want some information from someone who has actually used it or is still using it. How did it feel when you got it and can you still feel it inside you? Also it says a string hangs out. I don't want to feel like I have a tampon in all the time. And how do you go about getting it. How many appointments did it take you and how long did it take to put it in. I'm on the Depo. shot now and have been for over 2 years. But its making me not want sex as much. Does the IUD make you gain weight or loss your sex drive?
