This was upsetting to me of course. When I mentioned this to my psycotherapist he said,"You must use crappy birth control!" Exact quote. This seems like an unprofessional comment and is just one of the many odd, hurtful things I have to listen to. Is there anyway on earth a comment like this is supposed to help a patient? BTW I am married.

I have a question about my period...

I'm 17 years old, and I got it a week after I turned 16. They have always been very light, barely felt them when I did get them. Usually I get them every 3 - 5 months, sometimes later...and they only last 3 - 4 days.

I am kinda worried...is this considered bad? I am 5"3 to 5"4 and 101lb. When I reached 105lb was the last time i remembered getting my period, and then I worried about reaching 110, so I quickly dieted back down to 100 by lack of food. (not starving a day, but just a little lunch and dinner) That was...3 months ago? Maybe. ^^ And I only mentioned this part, because I realized weight can be part of the issue during periods...

I just want to know if this is really unhealthy? Everybody I know gets it montly. :(

Please please pleaseee dont yell at me when replying...I am kinda nervous about posting this and I can get very emontional =/

She is 47 and can take it or leave it. We have been together for 11 yrs and have great sex, when we have it. She claims it is the best sex she ever had. I have even heard this from her friends. When we do have it, it is one shot and it is over. What do I do. I am romantic and go slow trying to make it last as long as possible. She feels that it is a chore. For this reason I ALWAYS make love to her and just throw it to her. I love her very much and want us both to be able to enjoy sex more often and multiple times. Thank you for any respectable input.

I don't know what came over me, but in the middle of sex lastnight with my on again, off again, bf, I started balling uncontrollably. It was intense, and I was into it, i mean, REALLY into it, and I felt like I was losing control of my body and shaking. It really scared me, that I was letting go, and showing such vulnerability, so I started crying. I was really worked up, and kind of overcome by emotion, and letting myself let go in front of my guy like that (i have never let go during sex, I can't, never have been able to, my body gets tense when it feels too good, and I kind of lock up). My guy got kind of weirded out at the fact that I was crying. I still can't really explain what happened to me. All I know is that ...i didn't mean to cry. I was somewhere else in my head?? I'm 23yrs old, by the way.

Has anyone ever experienced this? Or had a gf that did the same thing? Was I on the brink of orgasm? (finally!?!) Or am I just going crazy?! lol

Thanks.

Are female hormones responible for acne problems, I had someone tell me that it was and it was easy to fix. I am unsure that I want to mess with my hormones. I do not have outbreaks during my menstural cycle, if that makes a differance.

when you and a guy friend, for whatever reason (skinny dipping, a dare etc.) and you get the chance to "see what he's working with"

do most women assume that a guy is going to be average sized? or do women have expectations?

i am not asking whether size matters. my question basicaly is "what size does a woman assume"

I get sore and swollen after I have intercourse with my fiance, and during intercourse I start to lose lubrication. I can tell and so can he. This is causing a problem for me becuase I don't want to walk around with a swollen vagina for a day because of always losing lubrication like that, and I am always well aroused. And because of it this causes my fiance to get hurt as well because of the friction. I heard a lot of women have this problem so I shouldn't be embarrased about it. But I'm not. It's just becoming really frustrating. I went to the doctor and I don't have any diseases or anything like that. I just wanted to know if u guys know where to get this KY Jelly stuff. the water-based kind. I'm not embarassed to get it or whatever, I just heard it was really hard to find. Where can I get it and in what section? And is there any other good water-based lubricants out there on the market? this is really getting on my nerves and I can use the help. Thanx

I have always had bad cramps, so it is nothing new. I was wondering if anyone knew of the strongest OTC drug(s) I can get? Because everything I have tried so far does not work. I am headed to my gyno in two weeks to get on the pill to end this disaster. I have finally had it with a disrupted life every month...I just have too much going on now with work and college class's etc... I am pretty sure I have tried every rapid/extra strength what ever super over the counter drugs their are. But goodness does it suck when i have to skip work and classes for several days because I am stuck curled up in so much pain to the point where my legs and sometimes my toes hurt!!!! Yeah I am well aware that I have dysmenorrhea..thanks to my GP's comments when we were talking once. Thanks to him we both think it would be best for me to end this menstrual hell. So in the mean time of this hell week I am having and untill I see my gyno, does anyone have any good 'drug me up' suggestions? Any good remedies?

i'm 6 months pregnant and have an umbilical hernia. was at the dr's about a week ago, he checked it then and said nothing poking through and that it was small. every now and then i'll have some pain (especially after a strenuous day). the last couple of days i've noticed my belly button getting a little red. no pain though. also my dr said i was almost at the stage that my uterus would be big enough to cover the hernia so nothing could get trapped there. my questions are, has anyone delt w/ this before? exactly when will my uterus be big enough to cover? and is the redness normal? i will call my dr next week. thanks

I have been taking Aviane, and about a month ago I quit taking it when I ran out of my last packet. I had my period, then had unprotected sex a couple of days after my period was gone. Now, I'm waiting for my period to come, but I just have a bit of pink spotting, a little bit of cramping, but not as bad as usual. I know it is not common to get pregnant before ovulating, but is it possible that I am, or is my period being weird because I quit the pill?

I mean, we have periods and cramps, WE have the baby which hurts like heck, we have to grow boobs and everything, we're more self conscience of ourselves, and it HURTS the first time we have "it". I mean, I was just thinking about it, although I'm sure only the girls will agree with me.

"THANK YOU" so much for your concern,everyone that gave me advice for my "baby" SPIKE", I finally found a vet with REAL COMPASSION!! I tried w/ the lil $ i had and it did'nt wk. w/ most. Then Sat. I found one I'd like to share w/ you."Dr.Kamal Singh"Advanced Animal Hospital 43067 Mound Rd.Sterling Hts.48312 (586)726-5200. I told the receptionist my $ situation and she said they did'nt do this. It would cost $40.00 for the office and then what ever. I had to do something so I went for it. Once I was w/the vet he already knew about the$ problem. He did'nt charge me for the office chg.and really gave me a break. He really had compassion which I think alot of them lack! PLEASE do not abuse his kindness, but feel free to meet a one in a million for our lil baby's. Again THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH for your concern. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL & I wish everyone a HAPPY, HEALTHY, and SAFE NEW YEAR caksmail@yahoo.com

I know that the condom reduces std's and pregnancy, yet it's only 85% effective. and the pill will prevent pregnancy. my bf does not have std's. so should i just use the pill? I'm underage, so do i need any adult to go with me or is it true that you can just go and get them. what's better the pill or the condom?

sometimes i can go a few days with nausea and other times it can last all day. Sometimes when Im sitting and get up I get very lightheaded and feel faint. I was on Zantac for a while. Then I went to my family dr and he prescribed medicine - this did not help. I went to a gastroentologist and he did an ultra sound of my gall bladder - it was normal. He also did an endoscopy which was normal. And no, Im not pregant - Im 65 years old. I have an appt with my gynecologist in a few months and was wondering if I should try to get an appointment sooner. Could it have anything to do with my female organs. I just wish I could find out whats the cause. Any help would b e appreciated

i just started on birth control.
but i can't remember to take it at all. i've tried setting alarms and since the first day i took it i didn't remember until, 9 at night. most of the time at nine, i'm not somewhere, where i can take a pill.
so i'm not having very good luck with it.
Now for the question,
Can I call the gyno and ask if i can switch to a chewable birthcontrol? [it would help with the timing, and the fact that sometimes, i just can't take pills no matter how small or how much water i drink.]
Or maybe ask to get the shot?
or should i wait until i have my next appiontment in three months to tell her it's not working out?
or does anyone have any advice other advice?

I am sexually active, i have been with the same guy for a couple of months, and before that ive only had on partner(long time bf before)
I just had a pap smear with a std test about 3 months ago and everything was ok. i also recieved the birth control shot on the same day, since then i have had unprotected sex with my boyfriend ( yes i know dumb, but condomns hurt sometimes),
about a month ago my lymph noid down there was hurting really bad, then one morning i woke up with a little painless bump between the 2 areas down there, since then i have had 3 others come up, they dont hurt at all there not white filled or a anthing, its just like these weird pieces of skin that are flabby and dont hurt, i plan to go to the doctor, im just scared, its not like ive been slutting around or had numerous parters, my bf assures me he never cheated and hes been checked before, could this be anything else?

My butt has a 50 foot diamater. It bounces when I walk and is hard to fit on a toilet. I have recently discovered that old hairy men have been bumping into it without my consent. Its unacceptable. I have recently looked into liposuction but I don't want to get plastic surgery. What should I do to shrink it?
