Women's Health - October 2006

I got my period today (at least it seems like that's what it is) and according to my package of pills I'm not off the hormones for another two days. Is this something to worry about? I've been really good about taking them at the exact same time every day. I was late taking a pill on Sunday but that was the only such occurrence this month.

I recently started taking birth control to help me get my periods. As a result (i'm guessing), my vaginal fluids are this dirty brownish color. It has NEVER been this color before. Am I worrying about nothing or should I be concerned and stop taking my medicine?

i dont like the attention i get from having large breast... and i definently dont like the back pains... but i dont want to have a surgery done to make them smaller...
i came across a website for the breast reduction pill, dimunex...
before i spend money on the pill.. i want to know how well it works.. and i think the best way to know that is to ask someone who has tried some kind of breast reduction pill..
so0o.. what do you think?

My period has always been very regular and predictable. I had it August 20th-26th. I got it again September 11th-17th. At first I was alarmed, but since I just started college I figured it was probably just adjusting itself to the new living situation. However, I've gotten it again today, October 2nd. At this rate I'm getting my period every two weeks. What's going on, and what should I do about it?

I had a baby 2 months ago (normal vaginal birth) and when I went for my 6 week visit I had a pap smear done. My gyn informed me that he found abnormal cells and now wants to do a colposcopy. I am nervous it might be cancer. Is it normal to have an abnormal pap after giving birth? Also is a colposcopy painful?? I am nervous.

What is a good way to curve this? When I have had a very stressful day with my kids I start eating. It's not so out of control that I down a bag of chips or eat a box of cookies. I eat like a bunch of little snacks, like candy bars, fruit, or the worst is corn nuts. Anyone else go through this and have found a better way of resisting the temptation to eat when feeling overwhelmed?

I am one of those types of people who's always on the go non-stop from sun up to sun down.I I move in a very fast pace and i'm always zooming from here to there. On my job, people actually will move out of my way because I feel as if everyone is not moving at a pace fast enough for me. I have even had this one person to ask me if I worked for the president because I am always on the move. I don't do cat naps because I feel as if It's a waste of valuble time where I can be doing something productive. I just have this need to always be on the move and to keep myself busy. I went to a couple of doctors because I though I was having heart problems. He said that I have the heart of a 20 yr old that he wish he had my heart, and that I am fine. I went to my family doctor and he said that I have anxiety and made me a prescription that is good for nothing more than helping me to sleep better at night. I just want to know of this is a normal behavior. I have more to say but not enough space.
