Women's Health - April 2007

I am writing a short publication about ante natal depression and an area I would like to target includes the womens clinics and ante natal classes in public and private hospitals, for them to issue to pregnant women. I'm not sure who I can contact to find out about aprovals or accreditation, by govt or health industry, before I spend money on marketing my product

Up until the past 6 months,I was very bad keeping track of my cycle.As far as I can remember,I do remember some months knowing when I should start and being a few days late.So in order to avoid second guessing I started keeping track.So far this is what my cycle has been. Start of first tracked cycle to the next-28day exact....then from those 28 days to my next I was 2 weeks past my estimated start date with no pregnancy.From the 2 weeks lat to my next start was 28 days,then 28 days and 28 days again...I am now 2 weeks late again,no pregnancy,yet I have not started....

I am not looking for medical advice,I am going to my Dr. this week.I just am curious if other woman have had a pattern similar to this.If I go tomorrow with out starting this will be the latest I have ever been at 2 weeks and 1 day.As said,there is no pregnancy.I have no extra stress,I am not under weight.I do smoke.I am in my early 20's.Sexually active with my fiance only.

Thanks!

Does a stomach tumour neccesarily mean a person has stomach cancer? Can it be diagnosed as benign or malignant before the tumour is operated on? The person in question is a woman over 60.

Im starting to get concerned. Since last summer Ive had a white creamy discharge coming from my vagina. It goes away when i have my period but comes right back. Sometimes theres a little and alot of times, there is alot of the white stuff coming out. Ive been shrugging it off not thinking it could be something serious, but the other day when i wiped it came out a white color with a hint of green. i was wondering if this could be a yeast infection or what?

Hi, I just had my pap smear today, and the ob-gyn said that my cervix looks like it can bleed easily. She said I would have some bleeding afterward. I did but it is brownish in color. What can this be? I am waiting for the pap result, and very anxious to know.

Im a little scared to talk to my mom about this. Ok so Im 18 years old. I get my period every 4-6 months at the least. When I do get it, its super heavy. For the past few years, the cramps have been tolerable. But every now and then they are so awful that Ive actually blacked out/fainted and it feels like my face is burning off (yes its pretty bad). I went to the doctor once for this when I was like.....15, She offered to give me birth control pills to stop my periods, but my mom says this will affect me later in life when I want to have kids. I have no clue what to do in this situation. I literally am afraid of getting my period and randomly passing out somewhere, plus my periods are so irregular its weird. Anyone have any suggestions or any tips on what I can do???? It would be really helpful, thanks!

I'm in my twenties, 5'9 and have a 38D chest... and it is a pain; back pains, sleeping is awkward, they are sore a lot, I'm always self conscious, people stare, I find it hard to exercise, and so on... But I'm terrified of having surgery of any sort, especially cosmetic surgery that is not vitally important... my question is, are the benefits of the surgery worth going through something so intrusive + painful? Or are there alternatives to the surgery? I'm a little bit overweight but not enough to be considered "overweight"; if I lose a great deal of weight, is it likely that a large portion of that weight will be lost from my chest? or does that weight tend to stick?

I'm confused, obviously, because I think life would be easier with a reduction, but I am impressed with those that endure the surgery because it seems like such a painful and difficult thing to go through...
is it a very invasive surgery?
really any information would be greatly appreciated!

Does anyone know when the no-period birth control pill Lybrel is coming out? I already searched it, and I haven't found anything. I was wondering if there are any doctors or pharmacists here that might have heard. I know you can skip a period with regular birth control pills by skipping the last week, but my insurance won't cover that.

We have gone out on four dates in a months time. talk on msn. make out a lot. I want to know how I talk with him and find out if he sees himself as having a relationship with me or if I'm just someone he wants to have sex with? When is the best time (scenario) to have this convo...
I also think he may make a move for oral sex in the near future and I don't want to do that unless we are in a relationship... how do i go about talking with him about these concerns... I definately don't want to force him into a relationship or make him feel pressured in any way... i want this to be a positive convo to bring us closer.
thanks a ton

I have been suffering from endometriosis and have recently got pregnant with help from Clomid. I am only 6 weeks pregnant and still feel the cramps, some worse than others, just like with endometriosis. I am just worried. Is it pretty normal to have the same symptoms of endometriosis while you are pregnant or could it be something else?
