Is it possible to experience anxiety rather than depression or moodiness during PMS? During the time when some people claim to have PMS I have anxiety, like, worries about things I don't usually worry about. Could this be related to my cycle? I have just noticed this the past couple of years, and haven't really thought that I'd ever experienced PMS before.

Ok so i visited the hospital about 2 weeks ago because I thought i had a bladder infection. They tested my urine and it was clean. She gave me anti biotics just incase, but i dont feel any better. im having EXTREME pain. my urine is very cloudy. and im having frequent and painful urination.

Other than a bladder infection what else could it be??

I've got type 1 diabetes and pretty cronic thrush. I used to go to the dr but just got sick of going and being ok for a week or two and then getting it back again so I kinda stoped going. I tried cutting out bread from my diet and was shocked that it actually did help, but I still get it a lot. I've kinda got used to it now but I'm scared incase there could be long term effects - esp. cancer, do you know if that could happen?

Thanks xx

I had breast augmentation a week ago. I got the okay from my plastic surgeon to massage. Any tips from anyone who has experience in this? Mine are saline and I want to know when they will start becoming softer.. (they have become a lot softer with only being a week.) I do not need to be lectured on why I got them and the whole "you should be happy with yourself" speech so save it for someone else. Please and Thank you.

I started the pill when I was 17. My periods were very irregular due to stress. I became sexually active in March of '06 and didnt have sex again until October of 06. We used a condom both times.
I have had my period consistantly without trouble. Thing is, I always am worrying that I am one of those women who have bleeding and think that everything is okay but am in reality pregnant. Has anyone else dealth with this phobia?
For those who became pregnant with monthly bleeding, how did you know that you were pregnant?

I had a D&C yesterday to remove endometriosis. I feel fine today, no pain, no soreness and only minimal cramping. Why did the doctor tell me no sex for two weeks? I understand if I had the D&C for a miscarriage that I would need to take precautions and not get pregnant again so soon but that's not the case with me. I understand that after any invasive procedure I should be careful but 2 weeks seems like a long time to me.

I was worried a couple of days ago because my period was 3 days late. I have been on the pill for 3 years which regulated my period. Last night i felt soo tired and dizzy with a severe migraine. I had horrible nausea and couldnt sleep. I then started having severe cramps, almost unbearable. I finally got my period during the nite and its extremely heavy with lots of clots. It is different from my other periods. Explaination??
