I had my son nov 28th and at my 6wk appointment my ob said that i was still healing bc i still had a lil skin tag left..Its been almost 11 wks since the birth and i still have that "skin tag" & it doesnt seem any diff than at my 6wk checkup.. ive read that it should be healed by now unless it was a serious tear and it wasnt. should i call my dr 2 c if she can fix it or should i wait and see what happens? whats the average time frame of it completely healing?

I'm 6'0", I got into modeling at the age of 17, I weighed 133 pounds, lets just say i wasnt eating right. After my modelling aspirations grew tiresome, now at the age of 21, I assumed REGULAR eating habits. My weight sky rocketed to 189lbs. The heaviest I've been in my life. My weight soared and my self confidence plummeted. I didn't eat unhealthily either. Did my meabolism change as I got older? Can it really slow down THAT much? I started a food journal that really helps me, I do cardio about 3 times a week, and barn work and riding my horse about 5 times a week. I'm active, always on the go, I never sit around doing nothing! I STILL didn't lose weight. So, I went to the doctor and advised I do this food journal. I did. She found nothing wrong with how I eat and said I'm not losing weight because I don't need to. What an answer. So now, I'm starving myself, abusing laxatives and the weights coming off. WHY cant I lose weight like normal people with diet & exercise? =(

ok well first off my breasts dont hurt just my nipples and its not too painful just irritated and its not another 10+ days till my period. I have been on birth control for 2 years now but my insurance company screwed up and cut me off without notice to send in my transcripts. So I have been without any birth control this month waiting for them to fix everything. What I am wondering is this just an effect of not being on bc anymore or could I be pregnant now and showing signs before I even know if I've missed a period? My bf didnt use a condom so thats why I'm worried. If you know any websites where I could look into this that would be great too.

I've been having alot of Indigestion and heart burn the last 2 days. I've also been feeling very bloated and having cramps. I've taken some medicine and it doesn't seem to help. I'm not due to get my period for another 11 days. I had intercourse with my boyfriend 3 days this week and each day I was ovulating. Is it possible that I could be pregnant? If so, is it too early to find out?

i have started taking my microgynon pills again after a two month break. i started two months or more ago and have not stopped for the 7 day break since then. i have just began to have very slight and faint bleeding and so i stopped the pill. now the bleeding has increased like a period.there is a slight discharge. is this a side effect of not breaking from the pill as instructed or could it be something else. going to the doctors soon but just thought to ask.

and how do you deal with it? What if after all the yrs. it's started to really make u angry and hard to tolerate?
What if u've already communicated in many fashions that you wish NOT to be treated like a mere child? You know expressed this wish both assertively, aggressively, during an argument and/or just in a calm manner repetively? am i being oversensitive?I'm just wanting to build my self-confidence and personal development and this behavior seems to get in the way. wondering if somehow I can IGNORE it???
For ex. he'll say, "Honey make sure you wear your seat belt", "watch out for traffic", "is the car running alright?" "is there anything about the car your not telling me"? go get me this and that, I wait on him like a maid when he comes home from work, and even though I'd love to work FT, everytime I do, it seems like he's happy, but then again not happy because I can't be here at all times for him.IN public it's embarrassing and much more.it's ALL THE TIME

She's south Asian, do south Asian (Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi) women have thin hair generally?

She had thick hair as a child. Started thinning as she did exams 16-20, stress related.

Can she thicken her hair again? Can it grow back (if she destresses)? Or is it downhill from now?

What percentage of married couples use condoms as their long-term primary form of birth control? My wife says she is undecided about children, but I am pretty certain that they will never fit into our lifestyle or plans. She won't use any other form of birth control, but I'm getting tired of using condoms. They are distracting and inhibit spontaneity. The thought of using them for the next decade is depressing, frankly, but she forbids me from getting a vasectomy "because it's too decisive." I'd like to know what proportion of married couples might be in this situation. I'd also like to know how to resolve this. Thoughts or online references are appreciated. Comments not attempting to address this specific issue will be deleted, so don't waste your time if you don't have a real answer. Thanks!

I know, I know! I know that most people are going to say that diet pills only work when combined with diet and exercise. I understand that. But my biggest problem is over-eating. I have heard that these diet pill stop your desire to snack and make you feel full so that you don't eat as much. My problem is that even when I am trying to cut down, I have no will power when I feel hungry, so I eat and eat till I feel full. I am about 20-25 lbs. over weight right now, and really want to loose it. I have cut out all sodas from my diet and also have begun watching the amount of carbs and sugars in and food I eat. I work for a dr and he told me that it is not about counting calories and that studies have shown it is better to count carbs and sugars. But I need something to curb these cravings and the need to over eat.

I know this is not a women's health issue but I know I've gotten some good advice here before so I figued I'd try....

Ok...This may be petty but here goes:

EVERY time she's around other people and we are on the phone..she hands the phone to someone for me to talk to! She does this w/ people I don't even know! I can easliy name 6 off the top of my head she has done this with. Granted I know 2 of them but still! Here...talk to so and so!!!!!!! OMG

She just did it and I predicted it! Granted the person I was "FORCED" to talk to I know and I told him...I hate when she does this...He agreed!

I know maybe it's just a friendly thing but I hate being forced to talk to someone I have no clue what to say to them! It's like she gets off on it! Thinks it's hysterical! UGH!!!

I have told her I hate this and she does it anyway.
