I heard the other day that only like 2% of the female population of the world is at least 5'10" but that seemed very innacurate. I can't find anywhere on the web so far any statistics but I wondered if someone could give me some help-And if you could state a source that would be great! Thank you so much!

The pain was in my lower stomach. The pain was so bad that I had to tell him to stop. I felt as if I was going to vomit, got dizzy, light headed, and couldn't even sit up or move. Please help! ?

I don't know how many people read this news:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20071107/ts_alt_afp/ushealthcontraceptive_071107142843

but it rly hit home for me. I had kidney surgery on October 31st (07) and my doctor said he was really worried about my stomach and surrounding areas due to: "build up of fatty tissues". He questioned if I ever had appendix issues when I was a child or any other surgeries in my stomach. I stated no, and I knew that was a fact.
I then read that article a few days later and was curious if that could be the problem. I have been on birth control since I was 14 years old (I will be 22 in December). The reason I am mainly on it is b.c.:
~Control of acne
~Helps with my very severe cramps
~Regulates my period, instead of having it 20 out of 30 days a month!

I am seriously thinking about getting off of it, but I wanted to see if I could find something to replace the issues above. Maybe a different pill? Herbal med? Creams? Anything?

Thank you!

I had sex with my boyfriend two consecutive nights. I have been on the patch for about 5 months now. The first night we had sex, we noticed the patch was coming just a little loose, but since it was the change day we just went ahead and had sex then changed the patch 30 or so minutes later. the next day we had sex as well, and my patch was fine. both times he pulled out, but it feels like my ovaries are hurting like they did when i was ovulating before the patch. does that mean I'm pregnant?

i think there is something wrong with me....
i was having alot of pain in my uterous area... like normal cramps only not when i have my period. i have them all the time.. sometimes theyre are more savier than my regular cramps.. i have had times where i was bent over crying and coudn't get up untill the pain faded. i went to the doctors.. she said it might be a sist i should just see if it gets bette or worse and than come back...
the pain never stopped.. and i tolded a big lump on the inside of me... i went to a different doctor she said it was probably a sist nd she didnt feel anything... she put me on birth control for two months...
this helped my period become lighter and not as long... which was great but i was still having the pain... i think the lump is getting so big it might be effecting my bowels and i feel almost like its pushing my stomach out... is this all in my head becaues of the pain?? could this be something more serious? a tumar? cancer? i'm scared.

I'm 23 years old and I've lost 70 pounds. I went from 210 pounds to 140. I did not gain weight on purpose, by eating, or not exercising....it was due to a medication I was taking.
While I feel good physically, I do not feel good mentally. During the process of losing weight...my stretch marks have become worse and my stomach looks disgusting and saggy....so are my breasts. While I do feel pretty good in my clothes, I cannot bear to look at myself nude. I feel like a disgusting person. I was involved with a man who I thought was "wonderful". He seen me nude, he broke up with me 4 days later and said I needed to work on my body more. This has brought me to the point where I do not want to date or have a sex life. For a while I thought of suicide, but I knew that was wrong and I do not want to hurt my family or friends. Should I simply give up the chance of having children, a husband and live a single, celibate life? Many of you will say have surgery, I cannot afford that.

I am wondering how common this is? And how would you know if you have them. Also do they affect getting pregnant. How soon can you get pregnant after a myomectomy. Has anyone had this surgery and can give me some infomation

so i don't have any desire to have sex, which is very frustrating to my boyfriend and me as well. this has been going on for about a year now. i tried mentioning it to the doctor and he seemed as if this is odd... made me feel stupid. i came off anti-depressants to see if that might help the sex drive but i need to go back on the pills. could my birth control (ortho tricyclen) be causing this? should i try going off my bc pills since there is really no point in being on them anyway! thanks

i've just got the contraceptive injection, i have had it before but only 6 months but didn't continue because i was busy moving 6 hours away from home and trying to sort out a job and college (and well being honest a lack of a sex life helped!) i've had difficulty finding anybody i know who has taken it. I'm not too concerned about becoming pregnant, i use the injection as more of a safety net while using condoms. But what i'm getting at, is if there anyone who's had a bad physical or mental effective?

Huge Problem here. I gave birth to my daughter on Sept 5. I had my 1st normal period on oct 10, which lasted for about a week. Prior to my pregnancy, my period came a week early EVERY month. Now I've had cramps for like 2 days. I never really have cramps prior to my period, only during, and I think I might possibly be pregnant. Can I be prego that fast? Could this be why I'm having these cramps??

I would never get breast implants or anything, but I am uncomfortable with my breast size and would like to try something else. I work out and have tried building my muscles underneath but it doesnt help.

Okay, first of all I have a Dr's appt tomorrow, but I just want to know your alls experience with this. Has anyone ever had several negative blood tests and urine tests at like 3-4 months? I think this is more common than anyone thinks. My doc sent me for a quantitative blood test a month ago (I would have been 13 weeks at the time) just to make sure after receiving negatives on 2 qualitative (yes or no) blood tests, that I wasn't pregnant. She wanted to check the #'s to see for sure. It was <1-negative. Is it possible to be 3 months and receive neg on a quant? I know it can happen on a qualitative, but a quant? Is this unheard of, or has anyone actually had this happen? I did have 2 more qualitatives @ 17 and 18 weeks after I could have conceived, but they were neg also!

I have considered the I.U.D,and I think that may be better for me.. I have a child,and Iam only with one person.. I have been on the pill for over a year.. I have stayed at 180 for a long time. I diet, and exercise, and I still haven't lost weight. I tried the shot, but that was worse than the pill... I want to know how the side effects of the I.U.D are, and how YAZ made you feel.. Thanks.
