Women's Health - April 2007

I had a needle biopsy and now have some drainage. My bra lays right where the biopsy was done and has irritated it. It itches and I hope this is because it is healing.

I had my routine smear today, to me, its a non-event. It has to be done, its not painful, i have nothing to be embarrased or ashamed about. the nurse said afterwards that she wished everyone was as calm about it as me.
How do you feel about your routine smear? Do you go at all? Do you feel embarrased?

Bladder infections are hereditary in my family, I guess.
My mom gets them a lot and so does my sister and I.
I get them almost every time after I have sex. Not usually if I just have sex once... but if we go 2-3+ times in a row.
Does this happen to anyone else? is there any way to prevent this?
It hurts so bad! :[

I notice when I am pms-ing, I sweat a whole lot more. I'm a very clean person, but I sweat alot more at night. I also notice that I stink pretty bad too. No matter how many showers I take. Keep in mind this happens during the time I ovulate, my period hasn't even started yet.
Everything stinks to me, perfume, certain foods and smells.
Most lotions and perfumes that I usually wear, I can't because it intensifies the smell to me.
Am I the only one with this problem? What can I do to decrease it? I eat pretty clean, and I excersise, but I still sweat and stink pretty bad. Please help

Any ideas what this means or could be?

Thanks x

When I was talking to my doctor he said that using condoms while on the pill only presents a 92-96% chance of preventing pregnancy. That seems a bit low to me since I heard that the pill by itself used correctly is almost 100%.
Does anyone else know (from experience perhaps) how effective it is to use both forms of birth control?
Also, are there any ways to maximize their effectiveness?

For reference, I take the pill the exact same time every day, or usually within an hour of when I'm supposed to take it if I forget.

Answers are appreciated.

I happen to think that men are beeeautiful creatures. So powerful, natural, sexual and raw. So what are your favorites? Go nuts. It can be anything, from his physical features like a sharp jawline, strong hands, cute, round butt; a stomach fit for a God, or a seductive, deep voice. It can be their ability to befriend people on a whim, their laidback attitude towards life, their cautious way of protecting and caring for women or the way you feel whenever they so easily lift you off your feet and treat you like their most prized treasure. Aside from all of the above, I also love sharp hipbones, veins that run along powerful arms, big, strong thighs ... oh, the list goes on. I mean, who was able to watch the movie '300' without at least once squeezing their legs together? Hehe. I'll get to the subject of women later, but for now, ladies (and gay men, as well as those men open-minded enough to just love other fellow men), what do you just adore about MEN?

Birth control pills, Diane-35/ 21?
I forgot to take my birth control pill last night and it's almost time to take the one for today. Should I take 2 pills or skip the one from last night and continue the rest? Is this going to effect my hormons if I take 2 pills or if I miss one pill?On packet that came with my birth control pills says to skip the missed pill if it's been more than 12 hours, which it has. But the pharmacist told me to take 2 at the same time. What should I do?

I'm 15 and just had my first period today, I want to get tampons, what brand should I get (I am very petite).

okay, here's what's going on:

i have fairly random sharp pains in the left side of my chest. i'm 28 and a female, so i don't think i should be having any sort of heart trouble, and there's no history of heart disease in my family. it annoys me though, and it's a really sharp pain that goes away pretty quickly.

and it's been happening for a long time. i'm sure i should get it chcked by a doctor, but doctors are hardly ever able to give me any actual answers, so i figured asking here couldn't be a bad start.

I AM having my period, but I took A bubble bath a while ago. It was the bodysource shower gel I used. IS this dangerous. I asked my mom and she said no, but I think she thought I meant taking a regular bath with no bubbles. If it is dangerous, what will happen?

I'm almost 17 years old but I first got my period when i was 12. Until about two years ago it was regular and I had it every month but now it's every 6 or 7 months. My mom thinks it's just hormonal but I'm not sure.

Since I've been taking this birth control pill I have had a Very low sex drive, which isn't normal. But I didn't fully notice it until recently, I ran out and couldn't get to the doctor's to get more due to my work schedule, and during the time I wasn't taking it I had a higher sex drive. Has this happened to anyone else? Should I switch birth control pills? I don't like having a low sex drive.
