my one breast that supplied more milk is still hard but not full, it isnt engorged just hard, like if it was full. and it hurts to put pressure on it, but i dont think it is infected. it is not burning or red. i didnt bandage my breasts, i just slowly stopped feeding, my left breast is fine and feels normal. should i pump a little to soften it or can i wait until my body absorbs the milk, i've heard of that, but am not sure. and how long does it take to absorb it and it softens?

on saturday night (march 31st) our condom broke, (april 2nd) i took plan b.

the following saturday (april 7th) i started what seemed like my period. saturday(april 7th) and sunday(april 8th) i had a light period. about half a tampon full after 12 hours. (sorry for tmi...) then every day after that its just been much less than a period in full swing but still small amounts of red and tissue blobs also... is this my period? it stopped in the afternoon on thursday (april 12th)

its about a week early if it is. but its a hell of a lot more than implantation bleeding from what i've read. i read that its spotting and should be dark pink to brown for no more than 3 days.. early period? or just irregular bleeding from plan b?

am i safe? or do i sound pregnant-ish?

Ok, so i have been on birth control for 2months. My bf wants to go all the way, if you catch my drift. is it safe? i know birth control methods arent 100%. but if he uses a condom and im on the pill the liklyhood of getting pregnant would be kinda slim wouldnt it? um...plz write back

I got my first period when I was 12 and Im turning 20 this year and Ive probably had 10-12 periods in the past 8 years. I had to go on the pill but Im just one of those mindless people and I always forget and I dont bother. When I was younger I considered it an inconvenience and I didnt even bother taking the pills. My mom is very worried. I didnt see a gyno. However I talked to my doc who said its no big deal and that as long as I take the pill and get my period 3 times an year im good. But, the thing is I can go on forever without my period if I dont take the BC pill. Also, when I take 1 or 2 of them and then stop a week afterwards I get my period. What does that mean? Do I need that extra boost of estrogen to ovulate or something? I dont know whats wrong? I dont think I have PCOS. No one else in my family (including aunts and cousins on my maternal and paternal side) have it. id greatly appreciate it if someone could advice me on this.

My sister just turned 40 and was put on Yaz for PMDD. She is not tolerating it well and has made PMDD worse and is wondering if this has happened to anyone else.

Ok, I have asthma and every time I'm around cigarrete smoke my throat closes up and I can;t breath. Well I just recently found out that my friend has taken up smoking. She's an aspiring model and is really stressed with modeling classes and school. She said that whenever she smoked it calmed her down and she had no worries. Well I don't want her to get cancer like many of my other family members. How do I convince her to stop so that every time I hug her I don't choke and so she doesn't hurt herself?

I am having surgery in tomorrow morning, one of the procedures is to remove what my gyn called a nabothian (cervical) cyst. I Googled images of nabothian cysts and I don't think that's whats wrong. All the pictures showed what looks like tiny little dots, cysts, on the opening of the cervix, but that's not what is wrong with me. What he's supposed to be removing is a large lump on the side of my vaginal wall. He actually wrote removal of legion on vaginal wall on the surgery papers. Could this just be one really big cervical cyst? Or what? Now I'm really wondering...what else could it be? I am also having a laparoscopy and D&C done to see why I have such irregular periods (2 weeks apart w/o birth control) and cystic ovaries. Looking for endometriosis and signs of PCOS. Maybe the irregular periods and low FSH/LH levels causing irregular/absent ovulation has something to do with this cysts/growth/tumor whatever it is! Anyone?

I don't have a negative outlook on life, I'm not suicidal, but lately (like the last 3 months or so) I've just been so listless. I don't really care about anything, and I have no motivation. If I could, I would lie around in bed all day. I feel like I'm just dragging myself everywhere I go, and I never want to go anywhere or do anything. I feel sleepy all the time, and I always take long naps in addition to the 8 hours of sleep I get every night. I don't ALWAYS feel this way, but I'd say that the majority of the time I do feel this way. I'm still functioning; my home is still clean, I'm still going to my classes and getting good grades...but it's only because I force myself to do it...it's like I'm in a sleepy bored unmotivated trance all the time...what do you think it could be? I really hate this; are there any websites or articles you recommend that I read? Thanks for your advice people!

p.s. I do plan on asking my doc about this at my upcoming appointment

While doing a monthly self breast exam I found a milky discharge from one breast. No chance of being pregnant now, but have had 2 kids, youngest is 3 yrs, never breast fed. Could I be lactating? Could it be cancer?

During my period I get cold. I can be wrapped up in two fleece blankets and be warm one minute and the next I'm suddenly shivering. This happens a lot at night too and i find myself waking up curled up in a ball and sometimes shivering even though I'm still wrapped up. What's causing this and how can I fix it? I heard it has something to do with iron but what foods have iron in them?
Also I get very emotional during my period and start crying even if I get yelled at a little bit. I can't help myself is there something I can do for that? Its been bugging me and I'm starting to stress out more than ever during this time of month.

I just got a Diva cup and am having a hard time figuring out how to insert it correctly.
I have tried to follow the instructions, but even after I have inserted the cup, it won't completely pop open, like the "u" won't completely unroll (the insides of the cup kind of stick together, like suction). Will it pop open on its own after it's been in there for a while? Or is it supposed to pop open right from the start?
Does anyone have any tips/advice??
