Women's Health - December 2006

Hi, I was just wondering who all is clued up on the menstrual cup (popular brands are the DivaCup in the US and the MoonCup in the UK).
The menstrual cup is a silicone (though some brands are of latex) cup which is place into the vagina during the menses, similar to the way a tampon would be used. They are much safer for a woman's body as they've never been linked to TSS, they are safer for the environment (you use them for 10 years or more!), they're easy on your pocket ($40 or 20GBP seems a lot at one go, but you'd use more than that in 6 months of feminine product purchases!!) and they are so comfortable!! I have had my mooncup for a year now and would never dream of using anything else.

So I guess I'm wanting to know who else uses one or who would be interested in buying one to use? They really are a fab product!! I couldn't live without mine!

I was just curious about masturbationg. I am a young male that is 21 years old and I know a lot of pretty girls at my college but for some reason I am paranoid about masturbating to them because I see them so often and am afraid I will feel weird around them. Some of them have boyfriends and some are just friends. No real prospects right now with these girls. So instead I tend to masturbate a lot to women like Britney Spears, Katie Holmes, Camilla Belle, Rachel McAdams, Jessica Biel etc... Girls I know I have no shot with and dont know me. Is this better to do or does it really matter? Will I feel any different either way?

I guess part of the sexual fantasies is treating the women as a sex object. Maybe I dont want to offend. I usually picture these women wearing a short skirt with no panties on bending over. I have a hard time doing that thinking about a friend. I do have a friend Jackie who I am tempted to masturbate about but still am wondering if I will regret it. Will I?

Hot flashes is something that my body is doing naturaly so why is it a bad thing? Why should I take medicine to stop the effects? If my body is doing it naturaly should it not be good for me just to tolorate it.

i recently got over a 10 month urinary tract infection. The doctor game me antibiotics and it cleared everything up. A week afterward i went back to the doctor for a follow up, and she said that my infection was gone. That was about 1-2 weeks ago. With that infection it burned to urinate, was very little urine, and was VERY urgent. Well, yesterday i began to notice i was urinating problem 10x more than i usually do (only yesterday and today). I haven't been drinking any more water than i usually do. It doesn't burn, it's a normal amount of urine, and isn't urgent... just more frequent. Is that a sign that my infection could be coming back again? Could the fact that i am trying to conceive affect it? At first i thought it was a sign of pregnancy but realized that couldn't be it because i only ovulated a 2-3 days ago. Any idea about what could cause this??
