I mean I have another question I asked including that I have been having the occasional white discharge (no odor) and much more strange body things going on, but I also am having a strange airy discharge. I do not know how else to explain it. If you have any clue as to what I mean, please assist me. Thank you.

I lose hair like a dog that sheds. I know everyone loses hair everyday but the is an unusually high amount for me. I am 30 yrs old. I have been trying to lose weight and at a stand still. I lost 25 pounds and still watching my food intake and trying to exercise a little each day. Also my cycles have been very unusual. The length is anywhere from 32 - 48 days long.

If anyone has any idea what could be causing this let me know.

i was on an antibiotic for a bladder infection and was supposed to get my period but did not want to deal with the mess so i doubled up and in that week that i was supposed to get it i had sex and now i am nervous cause i do not have my period after the second pack finished. I have been having spotting off and on throughout the second pack of pills. Can you still get pregnant in the time you were supposed to get your period??

I have big hips and I guess a big but and my pants are size 18 and the front fits perfect but the back is to big, if i go to a 20 its way to big, and a 16 is to small in back. When im standing up it's fine but when I sit down my pants go down in the back due to my big butt I guess and shows my underwear. I don't wear thongs so no worry there, just kinda annoying i have to wear baggy shirts to cover it up. using a belt hurts because there to tight for me when i sit down it pushes on my stomache.

Rude or inconsiderate comments will be reported. Thanks.

I went for my first pap smear recently and found it scary and traumatic. I wanted to ask other women if they found it the same. I had a male doctor but there was a nurse present. I had to strip and put on a gown. First I had my breasts checked but then the worst bit! I had to lie down and she put my feet in loops and hooked them up on poles at the end of the bed so my legs were way up in the air and spread. I hated it as I couldnot close my legs and was just left there spread open. The doctor then pushed a metal instrument inside and stretched me open which hurt (I am a virgin). Afterwards he inserted his fingers inside me and also up in my butt. I felt really embarassed and violated as I had my legs spread wide open. Is this normal?

Is it "right" to have your period for only 3 days without feeling any pain and then getting it again 7 months later at the age 12?

I don't mind where i the country must travel to, the surgeon must not be Miss Elaine Sassoon of the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital, nor Mr Ramakrishna of the Broomfield of Chelmsford in Essex. I cannot afford to go privately, but my PCT has already agreed to pay for me to go out of area, getting pretty desperate as I have been waiting for over 3 years.

I was told this was safe once in awhile. But I have been spotting for about the last week. Almost like a light period. I am on the second week of my second pack of pills.

Is this serious?..I have done this kind of thing before...continuing without a break. I take my pills semi regularly...meaning it might be a few hours late before I get a chance to take it...and rarely miss a day. I have been on the pill for nine years.
