I have a lot of white discharge between periods. Usually its thick and drys very white. I also sometimes get a clear gel liek discharge. Is this normal?


don't worry. it just happens to some people and not to others. It's completely harmless, although it can be a pain in the neck trying to wash it out of underpants. I know this sounds reeeeeeeeeaaaaaaally gross, but our sex-ed teacher Mrs Cohen told us that discharge is just mucus.

I have been in my current relationship for 9 months. Previouisly my relationship was 4 years in which we had a child. since then her father hasn't seen or talked to her in 6 months. Now when she starts to get close to my boyfriend she takes three steps back. But if she meets someone new she walk with them and hold their hand and she won't do this with my boyfriend. This upsets him and I've told him maybe she's just afraid to get close with himbecause she's afraid he will leave her too. Please help me try to understand this better. (she's only 5 years old)

Well of course she steps back from your boyfriend. She's a toddler! She's scared of strangers. She's aware that her father left him and little kids aren't old enough to understand second chances.

What do i do when i have an abuse of mother, who has mode swings, and is VERY abuse of somtime, its starting to be more abuseive than not, i am scared to tell anyone cause i know that it will come back to her and she will hurt me, like last week i didnt do my chores and she twisted my wrist, and now i have a sprained wrist.

please help!

It doesn't sound like there's a whole lot you can do to not live with her. Didn't you say that she's nice when she's not violent? Just try and do what you can to avoid her getting herself worked up. Do your chores, and if she asks you to jump, ask how high? Just do what she says to avoid her getting angry. I know this sounds weak and you might resent it and she's probably very irresponsible, but you can't change that, so you might just have to give in. Sorry hang in there babe ♥

ii have a seriously bad habit of biting my nails ii would love 2 have some long nails by the time school starts, does ne1 know of some really good tips and/or products or something that would get me 2 stop? -[(nail polishes? medicines?)]- any good answers get 5!! thanx loads!

Go to a nail salon and have false nails glued on and wait for them to grow out underneath the gel/acrylic/plastic/whatever. Fake nails are like stone surfboards lol It's impossible to bite through them!!!

My family wants to get another dog. We already have a Bichon Frise and we would like to get another small dog, maybe smaller that a Bichon Frise. Does any body know of any good dogs, that work well with children, are cute, arent that expensive, and would work well with another small dog? My Bichon Frise is very sweet if that matters for anything. Thanks!

most cocker spaniels are absolutely adorable and are nice to children if children are nice to it [the cocker spainel]. Same with Pomeranians. Pomeranians can tend to have a loud shrill bark, but you can have them de-barked.

ok i'm 13/f and i'm not sexually active or anything but i am just wondering how effective condoms are. i know that sometimes they have a hole in them or something, but about what percent of the time are they safe? thanks!

about 90% of the time it'll prevent you from STDs and pregnancy of the guy wears it the right way. But remember that you can still get genital warts or crabs because crabs and the virus that creates the warts are not transmitted through semen.

Whats the fashion this fall i mean real eye popper fashion sleek chic cool and sporty but still preppy not too pretty or girlie yet somethin a guy would love to see me wear thats still okay for junior high. thanx


>lil' nosy

um I'm not sure, but there are things that you can be sure will never get old, like miniskirts and Uggs. it always looks good and in fashion wherever you go and is appropriate for Junior High. Clothes is like makeup. You can't overdo it, especially in the 6th or 7th or 8th grade. And in Junior High, I'm sorry to say that guys don't really notice what you wear until high school [unless it's really nerdy and weird]. trust me, I'm about to be a junior. think about it: do you pay a lot of attention do what guys wear? I know this might not be the answer that you'd like to hear, but it's the truth. Sorry, babe!

13/f i'm not really like a schoolgirl or anything, but let's just say "rocker" is not my label. still, i like the look. what are some ways to get the not-outrageaous but not-TOO-subtle ways to get a slight rockerish look without looking like a total poser? thankz

BTW my 'rents aren't too into the whole rocker thing so if you suggest any clothes or accesories, plz make them something my mom would actually BUY me or i would actually be allowed to wear...and no make-up.

thankz everyone!


Well you could:

1. straighten your hair
2. dye your hair with semi-permanent black dye (the kind that washes out in 28 shampoos)1 and 2 can be found a Longs Drugs
3. get some tight black jeans that flare at the end or tear up some blue jeans
4. Go to a thrift store and find your ideal belt.
5. wear black nail polish
6. find a black spaghetti strap shirt, if your mom and your school will allow it.
7. Go to the drugstore and buy dark lip gloss. It's totally "appropriate" and looks good.

...and about makeup...

just wear a little bit of eyeliner. Sharpen a eyeliner pencil and draw a blunt but straight line right along your lower eyelashes if you're inexperienced. Use a wet Q-tip and wipe away most of it so its barely visible. It makes your lower lashes look thicker without anyone really being able to tell its there. It looks really good. Or, just line the top lid. For the top you need one of those spongey things. sponge it right under the fold of your eyelid so you can see just a stripe of black.

hope I helped

Okay, when I shave my underarms, it still looks dark afterwards where I shaved. How do I fix it so that it doesn't look like I have any hair there? Thanks so much to anyone who answers!

You can get it waxed where a professional pulls it out or spend a lot of money to get a laser cut, where they rip it out forever. but after you shave, there's no other way to get rid of the dark spot. Sorry!

ok I know I know I am totally screwed probably and I know I messed up big time but please dont tell me that over and ove...but ok I was raped last week and I didnt tell anyone yet...I cant im scared i dont now why but i feel like its my fault cuz it was my bf and Im the one who went out with him...so ya i know im screwed cuz the evidence is probably gone but I really need help on how to tell someone so thats why I came here..plz help!!
thanks

Ok you need to tell your parents. Just say "Mom, *boyfriend's name* raped me last week. What should I do?" It's not your fault that it was your boyfriend and you went out with him...you didn't see it coming, right? It's true that the evidence is probably gone...but you could be pregnant and have an STD. you might even have AIDS! You absolutely should see a gynecologist and have a pelvic check. Cuz some STD's like gonorrhoea and clymydia are easily curable...if you do something about it quickly. AIDS is not!

Hang in there, babe!

we've been out of school for a long time and i didnt do one thing with a friend. if one person is doind something with someone already they wont let you do anything with them =( they wont get a big group of girls to hang with or anything. EVERYBODY has something to do and they wont let me come i mean i thought i had real friends but... and my so called "best friend" doesnt talk to me online and in her shout outs she is puttin' me at the bottom of her list i mean i cant stand it with these girls they dont talk to me or call me i call them n they always say i cant do anything n then i look at thier a/m and its hanging with my girls or something like that. HOW DO I GET "REAL" FRIENDS??? PLEASE HELP I WILL RATE HIGH FOR GOOD ANSWERES.

I'm sorry to say that your friendship with these girls have drifted too far apart. There's not a whole lot that you can do about it now. I know that this isn't too helpful but that's the truth. But you can try to make new friends! When the school year starts you can make friends with the new kids. Making new friends isn't always easy, but you can do it. Always keep in contact with them. If you don't keep in contact for a long time, a friendship will drift apart.

hang in there babe!

I have tons of friends, quite a few good friends, and 9 best friends. but I dont have one or two BEST friends. It kinda bugs me because most of my 9 best friends all have one or two BEST friends. i love all my friends to death, but something seems to be missing.

also, i am so different than my other friends and i really dont fit in with any of them. we are going into high school in the fall and i am SO nervous that they will split into a couple different groups and i'll be left to wander.

I also have trust issues i guess you could say. I have such a hard time trusting my friends. i feel like i cant talk to them about hard stuff because i'm supposed to be the strong one, that looks out for them. I end up keeping everything bottled up cuz i have no one to talk to. it's just so difficult because i have so many great friends, but i always feel like there is never anyone there for me.

Any advice on any of these friend issues would be appreciated thanks.

If they're your best friends, they'll probably listen to you. You probably can't trust them because you've never tried. Maybe you're a very secretive person and won't spill the beans easily. But give it a shot anyway, and if they don't listen to you, then you should find new friends

A lot of times my back hurts when I'm sitting in one position for just a couple of minutes. And I don't know what it is! Does anybody have any suggestions as to what this pain is? I rate high.

Don't worry, we all have it. You're perfectly normal or you're just very sensitive :)

i just had sex like a week ago and im pregnent!wat do i do?

Get an abortion. Thats where they cut the baby out of your womb. But you have to be 4 months pregnant to do that. If you're a teen, your parents will be really pissed. If your state doesn't allow abortions, go to Canada. Sorry about your misfortune. You learned your lesson "the hard way": never have sex without a condom, and if your man wore a condom, remember to make him wear two of them next time! good luck. hang in there babe

i have a bf of 2 weeks..for the 1st week we talked all the time on the phone and stuff but then we just stopped..we talk ocasionaly on the computer and stuff but not alot like most couples..i still like him but going out with him isnt as great as i imagained..he always seemes irrated by me and i dunno if thats just his guy tone..i dunno if i should break up with him and see what else is out there..im just scared b.c i love the idea of having a bf and dunno if ill find some else

plz help/ill rate

I think you should break up...it's not really going to get any better, is it? You shouldn't go out with him just because you want a boyfriend. If you don't think he's really all that great, there's really no point. Especially if he always seems irritated to see you.
