Hi can you tell me what you think of breast implants, men or women, do you have them? are they worth getting? do you regret having them or wish you had got them sooner? do they feel natural and move naturally?? any views welcome:)

Usually I start my period the thursday or friday before I start the placebo pills- about day 19 or 20 according to the pill pack and it is usually quite heavy with lots of cramping. I'm on ortho tri-cyclen lo. I've been on the pill since may. I called my doctor the other day, and they said they may need to put me on a higher dosage of hormones. The other night I forgot my pill, and remembered the next afternoon. But now am late, 3 to 6 days depending how one looks at it. Could I be pregnant? Could I take a pregnancy test to find out? Or would it be too soon?

I have a laparoscopy just over a week ago - the good news is that it was all clear, so the surgery was pretty simple.

I was just wondering how normal it was still to be in a lot of pain 9 days later - it's just one area about the size of a 2p next to my belly button (not at the incision site) and it has kept me awake, can't concentrate easily the pain and can't have my trousers (or anything else) touching it.

I went to the docs yesterday and he said it was probably just muscle bruising and should be better 10-12 days after sugery as it can get worse before better but if I start to feel unwell go back (had a slight temperature).

Am I just over worrying and most women go through this or is it something I should keep any eye on? Gentle touch feels like someone is cutting me open and the pain is constant even with pain killers. Its a very sharp pain - I have what I would describe as brusing pain lower down which I'm not worried about at all.

Any info/experiences appreciated.

I am pretty overweight and have high blood pressure, Im trying hard to fix both. So any thing that causes weight gain or raises blood pressure is out of the question.

I have a high sex drive, and i like it that way, i've heard some BC pills decrease sex drive, and i would hate that. Heck, i would rather have something to increase it.

Anything that causes future infertility is OUT OF THE QUESTION.

Im not scared of shots, i can take pills, put on patches it doesnt matter. I'm just curious to know what type/brand of Birth Control would be the best for me.

I am thinking of going on depo-provera, the birth control shot...but am pretty hesitant about it because I have heard it causes infertility, MAJOR weight gain, and lots of other terrible side effects. However, the fact that you only have to have one once every 3 months is very appealing to me. What do you guys know about the shot. Have you experienced any of the above side effects?

Has anyone used Yaz? I'm thinking of switching from Ortho tri-cyclen LO to Yaz. Anything good or bad to say about it? I haven't heard much about it except for in the ads. I like how it only has 4 placebos so your period is supposed to be even shorter. I don't want a pill like Seasonique b/c I know I would have break through bleeding and thats just way too aggravatting. Any info would be helpful, I'm going to the Dr this Friday.

Sometimes I wake up feeling my tummy will explode. I noticed this happens if i sleep on something even if it's the bed cover or my own clothes. I am not pregnant and very slim. It feels as if my tummy is full of air trapped but doesn't feel like i have gas. The feeling only goes away after I move for a while, it hurts a lot when I breathe. Any explanation and/or solution for this???

I'm 17 years old, and female. I have a swollen lymph node in my armpit (this might be from shaving) which previously had shrunk to a very small size, but has swelled up again. I also have mild back and rib pain. Earlier today I've had dull aching pain in my chest, and mild sharp pains on the sides of my chest/breasts (also a little underneath breasts). It seems that heat helps such as warming up my muscles, dressing warmly etc.. I've done a self breast check, and they seem okay. AT the moment they are slightly sensitive to the touch, but very mild. I also still feel a little achy, but compared to how I felt earlier I feel pretty good. I also keep thinking that the upper part of my sternum is more prominent or boney feeling than usual, like the cardilage is inflamed or swollen. I don't know what to make of it. Muscle strain? Costochondritis? I might end up going to the doctor anyway if my lymph node doesn't go away and if I do, I'll certainly ask, but until then, any ideas?

What was your experience like? Do you think it's a good birth control method? I just had a baby and am breastfeeding. I don't want to get pregnant again for at least 4 years. Would Depo be a good choice for me?

how do you use the super kegel device? how do you place it in between your legs? Do you stand with you knees locked while using it (and just tighten you buttock and inner thigh muscles)?
