Women's Health - March 2007

Me and my boyfriend have been dating for a year now and we spend every day together. To begin with I already have a low sexual libido, but in the last few months I haven't been getting as "wet" as I did before, and my boyfriend has noticed. He asks me after we make love if I'm still attracted to him, and I can see that this is bothering him. He has a pretty low self-esteem, and I think he bases his image of himself off of whether he can pleasure me or not.

The thing is, he does pleasure me, I find him very attractive. The only thing I can think of that may be affecting this is just habituation. We have a great relationship, no fighting, we are even starting to plan a future together. It would be hard for me to tell him the reason is that I'm used to his body and face, he'd take that the wrong way. Tell me how to spice things up and let him know that I still find him sexy. We have years ahead of us, so I need to figure this out now.

So I;ve been noticing that my body looks fatter no kidding and I went to the doctor like 2 weeks ago and they weight me, but my weight has been constant. But I know I gained weight, it totally changes your body and I don't fit in my good jeans anymore... :(

Any tips on how to start something healthy or any comments...I'm just really frustated

For about 2-3 mo. my left nipple has really been itching. At first, I thought it might be dry because of the weather but then I was thinking that didn't really make since. I usually don't have dry skin & wouldn't both nipples be irritated? A few months ago that same breast had been uncomfortable, not painful, just tender. I went to the dr because cancer runs in our family & several of my aunts & both grandmas have had breast cancer. The dr. said he didn't feel any lumps & said it was probablly just a hurt muscle. He suggested taking motrin for a couple of wks & see if that helps. it did seem to help so I figured that's what it was. Now with just this 1 nipple (the same one)itching, I am worried. It doesn't really hurt, but when my husband & I are in bed, it is tender if he touches that 1. When he sucks the nipple gently it makes it feel better. I know that sounds strange but I was just wanting to put everything down & see if any1 else has experienced anything like this? Any causes?!?

What may be causing me to have pain around my cervix when i am having sex. Sometimes it doesn't hurt at all then it will hurt just a little bit, but sometimes it hurts my whole stomach clear until the next day. Does anybody know what that could be from?

I apparently have too high prolactin even though I am not pregnant. The doc tells me this is due to my pituitary gland.

Can anyone tell me more?

The doc has given me DOSTINEX tabs, each week for a month, and she tells me after that the level will drop.

does anyone know about this sub and can explain for me in plain english??

many thanks

My mum is 50 years old and had been smoking for nearly 16 years. about 6 months ago she had terrible pains in her legs. she went to the doctors and they said it was viral and gave her antibiotics but it didn't help. The pain is actually getting worse as she can't lie down on her side or walk or even stand for to long with out agonising pain in her legs. has anyone got any ideas as to what it is or maybe what is causing it? thanks!
also sorry for any spelling mistakes! :P

Most of the time, while getting it on, I get dry easily which leads to soreness and slightly swollen labia. And then I'm miserable for the next couple hours and lose the mood. I try to use lubrication when and before this happens, but it doesn't last very long. Am I just not turned on enough or is that just how my body is going to function? What lubrications work best?

It is now 3/9 & I am worried. My husband & I have been trying to conceive since August & 1 1/2 days before the second period started an ovulation test told me to try. (Imagine my frustration!) After about 4 days it seemed to slow down, so I got curious & took another ovulation test...It said I was ovulating!!!! "No Way" I thought. So I wondered if I would get a false positive on a pregnacy test as well, & sure enough, It came up positive. I had a doctors appointment yesterday & at that time it appeared to be on the way out. Very light & slightly brown. The doctor said that 2 periods happen to even the most predictable women, & unless it starts back up or it happens again, that they consiter this to be an isolated incident, & then scheduled me a pap for next month as a follow up. I went shopping last night afterwards for 4 hours & when I got home I noticed that it was right back to a constant red drip. What would cause a constant bleeding & false positives on both? An Infection Maybe?

Hi, I just got back from my first cruise ship vacation, I sat in the hot tub for 4 days for at least 1 1/2 hours daily, it turned my and everyone elses silver jewery BLACK, alot of chemicals, is it possible the over chemical unbalance is the cause of a now yeast infection. I have only had one of these once before in all of my 50 years of life, so I dont ever suffer from this affliction. I am concerned. I am assuming all the women are now suffering from this because they all were in the tub longer than I. What a drag!!! I informed my boyfriend last night and he said yup I have a crusted penis also. Wow, bummer. I have treated myself with monostat and am taking an acidophius tablet 3x a day. I believe my good bacteria all got killed and the bad bacteria took over first. Has anyone else had this happen, is this common in public hot tubs because they have to over chemical the water to prevent germs. Ewwwwww!!!!!!

Hello... well i was on the pill for 2 years, and had to go off of it because even though it was low estrogen, it still messed me up, because of the excess estrogen, it through everything out of wack and gave me terrible yeast infections. When i stopped taking it my problems went away. I now use condoms, but i would also like some other bc just to be safe. Have any of you tried the NuvaRing? The shot is out of the question (too much progesteron,etc as recommended by my doc). How about IUD? Are they really that dangerous? Me and my boyfriend have both been checked numerous times for STDs and we've been together for 4 years and have been monogamous. We are both and school, and the last thing we need is a pregnancy. Abstenence is out of the question, so keep those opinions to yourself please. If any of you have heard of a diff kind that would great. And YAZ still has too high of estrogen levels for me (and all of this is driving me crazy ;) )!!
