Let's just admit that no woman wants anything bad happening to their breast, right?
Well, lately my concern and worry about breast cancer has increased and I have questions.
First note that my grandmother had breast cancer. My great aunts had breast cancer. My mom had breast cancer.
I also have PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) which increases my likelihood of breast cancer.

I'm turning 25 in two weeks. What can I do to prevent getting breast cancer? My Internal Care Doc and my Gyno both know my family history and yet no one will check me. They say I'm still young and my breast are still dense. I mean yes they check for lumps, but they won't do anything further.

5 years ago I did have a lump and the biopsy came back negative, but they did remove the lump regardless.

I just am sooo afraid that I'll get cancer. What can I do to prevent this as much as possible?

I just found out i was preg. about 2 days ago. I know im not very far along at all. I had my "period on Dec 31st. It was barely anything, spotting more, and it only lasted 2 days. Now on the 26th i had tiny tiny spotting and that lasted maybe a couple of hours at the most. I found out i was preg on the 28th. I have been having little cramps, its hard to tell if its gas or cramps? What should i do?

I don't know how far along i am. The preg tests were faint so there must not be very must hormone in me. The doc confirmed it and he cant feel my uterus yet.

What should i do about the "cramps" and how far along do you think i am? I dont think those were periods...

Especially in the early stages? Or is it more dangerous to start bleeding later on?

I have read up on how many women claim they had their "periods" throughout their entire pregnancy. HOW CAN THAT BE POSSIBLE?

perhaps they are confusing their "period" with slight spotting/light bleeding?

Please help!

Can someone please tell me if you have experienced the same. I have missed my period by 5 days. I did some tests including urine test at day 4 still negative, we did have unprotected sex. I have sharp pains in my right abdomen side that come and go. Is it possible that I'm pregnant or is it a cyst or something else. I dont have any symptoms just the side pain, going to obgyn tomorrow.

Around early September I was with this guy, the same guy that my parents didn't want me near...

It was a foolish mistake and it haunts me till this day. Not one day goes by without me worrying about some consequence of my actions. Although no sexual intercourse took place, I fear maybe some of his fluids might have gotten near "my area". Gosh, I can't even talk about it without hating myself. Although I had my period 3 days later, I somehow can't talk myself out of thinking I am NOT pregnant. I don't know why.....the guilt seriously haunts me. I would DIE if I was :(. Its the fear that is getting to me......I bet many here would say "go get a HPT". I just can't do that, many reasons for that. My family is quite strict and if they EVER see me with one.....well, I just rather not hurt anyone else; I am hurting myself enough mentally. Plus, I cannot get myself to just go take one. I would be 18 weeks if I was pregnant.

My question to you guys is do you think I am pregnant?

I have been on antibiotics for three days. They are as strong as I can take since I am pregnant. I can only take tylenol and sudafed. Does anyone have any remedies I can try? My throat feels like it will start bleeding if I try to talk!! It hurts to breath!! I went to the doctor this morning, he couldn't do anything but continue my antibiotic and tell me to take tylenol and sudafed. Someone help, PLEASE!!!!! Hot and cold towels have helped a little. Hot tea is too nasty.

Asking such type of question is not violation of agreement. The aim is to inform public of adverse effect of such unhygienic, inhuman & unsocial act in the so called developed and social society. The question is open to all and doctors are specially requestd to answer this vital question.

Hi
I am 21, have size 12G breasts and am having breast reduction surgery in 12 weeks time. My surgeon will be performing the "Le Jour" or informally named "Lollipop" technique.

I am wondering if anyone else has had this same procedure?
If so;
Are the scars healing well?
How much time did you take off work?
How long were you in pain for?

I would really appreciate any relevant answers.
Thankyou.

I have been sick for about 3 weeks - I am better now - but my mom has been in the hospital the last 2 weeks and i am under a lot of stress -- but it just seems like for the longest time i just feel SO tired all the time and just lazy and unmotivated. I still get done what i need to but i feel so sluggish - I stopped eating meat 1/1/07 - so maybe my body is still adjusting - but if anyone has advice that would be great!

I have become sexually active in the past month. Of the three times I have had intercourse I've bled afterwards. Not too much blood, but as if I'd broken the hymen again and again. Is this normal, or is something wrong?

My tubes are tied so I know Im not pregnant. But how come I have this deep sensation like contractions down below and it really hurts? I know what they feel like no doubt after having 2 kids, and thats exactly what it feels like. Why is this? It makes me so uncomfortable. I know I cant be pregnant, theres no possible way. It comes and goes and makes me double over.
