If a woman has a UTI (bladder infection), does it affect how much, what color and how sticky or elastic the cervical mucus is?

Im trying to check if im heading into pms soon as its near the end of my cycle but this UTI, if it is that, is making it hard for me! Iv had it for a week and just got medication 3 days ago.

Hiya. My wife experienced vaginal dryness the day after we played with some lube. we dont really need it, as she gets wet enough for intercourse, but the day after we noticed t wasnt as wet as tas y gets. Is this a side effect or a bad reaction/

Alright, I know the drill. Be worried if there's a difference in color, texture or odor, or if there's other problems like pain and the such.
Here's the deal though, the occurance of my discharge is what's weird. I mean, it's normal in that it's clear (white if it dries before I can change) and has no particular odor in and of itself, slick and liquid, with no lumps or anything in it. Normally, I get this discharge when I get excited, sexually or otherwise, get scared, cry, laugh real hard, sudden shocks, get angry, it runs the gammot.
But now, it just seems to keep flowing when these things happen, heavier than usual. It's still the same, color, odor, texture, just a different amount. Any ideas as to the cause? And is it serious enough to take straight to the gyno, or could I wait and observe more?

I admit to the possibility of pregnancy. I have been having unprotected sex with my boyfriend in the last 6 months. And there was a single tiny stabbing pain the other day?

So... I'm on the shot....and only have my period randomly about 4 times a year... It's VERY effective for birthcontrol...and with my period being so random and so few times...I just keep a month in mind of when I had a period. I stopped keeping the actual date I started and stopped a while ago. Do you think that me just keeping a month in mind (and if it was normal flow yada yada) is a good idea. I'm not really sure about it. I've been on the shot for 4 years now...and get in RIGHT on time every single time...thoughts? What would you REALLY do if you were me.

This is very uncommon as I have not missed one in four years (due to health complications). I have taken two pregnancy test one home test and one at the Planned Parenthood. Both have came up negative. I have looked at different reasons for why this may have happened, stress, hormones, being ill, none of which I am experiencing. Any ideas on why this has been happening. My symptoms mainly consist of quite a few headaches that are uncommon for me as well, as well as my missed period. I am worried any ideas on what it could be?

Can anyone help? I've been with my fiance 2 years and our sex life was great the first 6 months, then slowed down, now non-existent (my fault). I still love him to bits and fancy him but got 0% desire. Sometimes get the desire but when it gets to the nitty gritty get scared off again. Mostly just feel knackered but I can happily stay awake on my PC (as now) but don't have the energy to do the bizz. I am a heavy drinker and never get enough sleep. Hate going to bed for some reason, put it off and off no matter how tired I am and always wake up during the night and early morning. Also a self confessed stress-head. I've checked out websites on low libido but generally they refer to men (impotence) or to women (perimenapausal or post baby). I'm 33 and supposed to be in my peak, is it the lack of sleep, the alcohol or what? Any suggestions most appreciated! Thanx

Hello. I'm 24 years old, married and I'm helplessly confused about Nuvaring. I started using Nuvaring today at noon, which is saturday 12/1. Here's the list of the dates my period started in the past 5 months: 7/23, 8/22, 9/24, 10/20, and 11/22/07. I found a website that said I could insert it the first of the month and take it out on the 25th.

This threw me off, because as far as I know, I'm supposed to keep it inside for 3 whole weeks (21 days, right) counting today as day 1. That said, I must remove it on fri. 12/21 at noon, then re-insert it seven days later (friday 12/28.) I'm confused! Should I count the day I remove the ring as day 1?

Whatever happened to starting the ring on the first day of the month, in my case, Saturday; removing it exactly 3 weeks later (same day of the week) getting your period around that time, then inserting it back one week later (same day.) Please help me figure this out and make my bc as effective as possible. Thank you!

Hello.
I'm planning to have Breast Reduction surgery when I'm eighteen (sixteen at the moment) -- can anyone tell me what it's like? How long recovery was for you, and how quickly the scars fade (and what you may have used on them to make them fade quicker), etc. (naturally, I'd opt for the vertical scar technique). I'm a 30E now, and would love to be a B cup, so I'm particularly interested in hearing from women who went down to a B.

By the way, I'm 4'11" with a small frame, I actually hunch forward when I walk, get shoulder pain after only a few hours whenever I wear a bra, and have quite a lot of back pain (If I do any task where I have to lean forward, even if only slightly, the pain is hell after a few minutes), and although I'll love being able to wear nicer tops etc., the surgery is not for cosmetic benefit, so I don't need a lecture! :)

Thank you all very much for your time.

My hair is very thin/fine and I'm really unhappy with its apparance. I'm still trying to figure out how can I help improve the thickness of my hair. Does my hair thinning have anything to do with the following factors? Firstly my mother has fairly thin and curly hair like me. Secondly, I've been under quite a lot of stress over the past few years for personal reasons. Thirdly, I am overweight. And I also still don't have a regular period. On top of all this, a few years ago I was on a course of roaccutane to treat my acne and the specialist said one of the side effects was thinning of the hair and drying out of the skin but he said they would only be temporary. My skin is no longer dry but my hair is just not getting any better and I am concerned about my overall health and how it could be affecting my hair. I know this is alot of information, but my main question is, can my hair return to being thicker? Are there any miracle cures? What do you suggest to improve my hairs condition?
