Women's Health - March 2007

I just stopped birth control about a month ago. I don't think I've ovulated since then but I didn't use any tests or anything just from discharge when going to the bathroom. Anyway, about 4 days ago I started having period-like cramps like I was going to get my period but I didn't (and around now would be the time I would be expecting it). I had these cramps for about 3 days (I haven't had any today) but I was just wondering if going off the pill had anything to do with it. Also, the cramps sometimes start and/or intensify when I start to get aroused but then disappear once fully aroused. I've only been with one partner for the past year and a half and we've both been tested and are clear of any STD's. Also, I took a pregnancy test about 2 days ago but it came back neg. I don't have any other symptoms of pregnancy. So could it be something to do with getting off the birth control? If anyone's had any experience with this I'd love some insight... Thanks

Back in high school I was a large 36DDD thought about a breast reduction because i was constantly experiencing back pain. But it was suggested to me that I lose weight first. So I did.

Now, while I am still a 36DD alot of it is excess skin. I am a 23 year old with the breats of a 93 year old. But they are still very large and very heavy and I am still having very bad back problems with horrible posture because I am so front heavy.

Now here is my question.... Do I still need a breast reduction or would I need a breast lift now because of the excess skin? I dont fully know what a breast lift is... but someone told me that it was closer to what I needed now... and if I do need a lift, does insurance ever cover them for reasons such as back pain, because I know people usually dont get lifts for back pain.

Hi,
I am 5 weeks PG with my 2nd Child right now, but this time I am SO worried I will lose it. I had a awesome PG the 1st time, with no problems, but this time, I am so scared I will lose it for some reason.
I was told if you don't have morning sickness you have a higher chance of miscarring it. I never with my 1st, but for some reason, I just can't stop thinking about this.
I am suppose to go for a check up on the 13th? What will they check on me? Will they give me a pap, I have heard from women bleeding from that, while PG. Any suggestions?

Thanks

I am never very regular but this month has been the worst. I started on time but it only lasted a couple of days, then a few days later it came back heavier this time, went through (7) days which I normally don't do, went away, and then this morning back again - Anyone know what might be going on??

Im not on the pill I stopped it last June, me n bf use condoms - not had any accidents but i know they arent 100% safe (im 22 live with my partner so have regular sex etc) - I hadnt had a period for over 2 months so went to family planning and they did a test. It was the negative. The type of test they used apprantly only shows up pregnancy thats over 3 weeks.. so she said id need another in 3 weeks to be sure.
Anyway a few weeks later I got this brown discharge I thought it was my period coming - cancelled my appointment...
This wasnt much just really when I wiped myself I only needed a very thin pantyliner.
I then had tiny amount of blood after about 5 days for a few days but not much not as much as I normally get with my period and now im back to having light brown stuff again and have had that like 2-3 days now so have to wear a thin pantyliner again. seems realy odd! Not been stressed but I am a low weight as I lost a few more pounds (not intentional!) trying to put it back on

Well last night after my b/f and I made love we went to sleep. I woke up this morning to take a shower (I take it out and clean it off) BUT it wasn't there....I was freaking out. I looked in the bed and there it was. I asked my boyfriend about it and he said he felt it while we were making love and he usually doesn't so I guess I didn't have it properly inserted. My question is I am wondering if there is a chance of pregnancy because it would have been out a total of 6 and 1/2 hours before I realized it and put it back in it's proper place plus we didn't use any precaution method (pull-out) Do you think it will be ok?

I was on the Depo shot for 2 yrs and have been off for 2 yrs. My periods have been irregular since. I had 4 periods in 4 months and I have missed the past 2. I have been VERY moody and emotional lately. I don't know if missing my period affects my moods or if I could be preg. I took a hpt and it was negative, but I was told that it could be wrong. I have a Dr. appt. on Tues, 02-06-07.

I had unprotected sex on Tuesday night, and I was supposed to go into planned parenthood today and get the morning after pill. Well, today was a snow day and now I have no way of getting anywhere. It's a winter storm warning and I can't even get my door open all of the way and there's no way my parents will let me go anywhere since I'm only 16. It's supposed to snow even more tomorrow! I'm freaking out and I really need some advice. Please don't leave answers telling me how young I am and how I shouldn't have done this because I know that already and I'm just looking for some support.
