my breasts have gotten a large amount of like
stretch marks on them
and i haven't even gained weight or anything
and i've been growing pretty steadily
why do i have this?
i hate it so muchhh! (link)
|
Like the person before me said, it is normal, because your breats do tend to grow at a faster rate than the rest of your body, the stretch marks occur.
Stretch marks are literal tears in the skin layers, deeper than just the top layer and no lotion or cream will make them go away, sorry to break it to you. People try to sell the creams because they know women become self concious about them and will buy things that claim to make them go away.

how old do you people think is an ok age to lose yor virginity? (link)
|
At LEAST 18, because by then you are knowledgeable enough to know the risks of sex, which isn't JUST pregnancy or STDs, but other dangerous things like UTIs and HPV.

is all the hype concerning 2012 true? with planet x becoming close to the sun and then causing solar flares to hit us and etc? with global warming? cause i just watched some videos on youtube about it and im kind of scared.. because i'll only be 19 in 2012.. barely lived a life :/ i wont even get to have children unless i survive but i cant imagine how life would be like.. i dont want my friends and family to die either :( (link)
|
No, it's not true. Trust me. I am Christian, if you are like me, you should trust in the bible. It explains a lot of things. :) no worries.
Yes, the bible does talk about a time of "the end" but there is no definate date such as 2012. I personally believe it's a bunch of hype, just as Y2K was.When you think about it, time itself is something that is manmade, so who can say WHEN the end will come?

ii really like this boy :( (link)
|
Well, if he really does like this other girl more then you have to let him go. It's hard to admit but it is true. It sucks, but you can't make someone like, or love you. Stay around to be his friend, just incase it doesn't work out with the other girl. But other than that, that is nothing else you can do but try and move on for the time being, and if he becomes single, or changes his mind, you will be there. :)

I've been hurt many times in relationships and I've lost trust in guys. I became one of those girls who led guys on and dropped them, made plans I didn't intend on keeping and said things I didn't mean. I did that even to guys I liked. Now I'm changing things but the weird thing is I'm realizing I'm really into this guy i screwed over manyyy times. He isn't the best guys, he smokes ALOT, skips class, and drinks but for some reason I keep falling for him. He was one of the guys I actually did like but I made plans and didn't follow through 5 different times so hes pretty much lost all trust in me. I don't really know what to do because I don't want to want him but I can't help it. Well he ended up being at this party I was at and we talked and I appologized and he was being really sweet and cute. He tried to hook up with me and I didn't because my friend was already mad at me cause she says I was dancing like a whore so that probably didn't help things, turning him down. Me and him are friends but part of me really wants more. Everyone says I can do better than him but theres something about him that I can't let go of. For some reason even though he isn't the best guy and he isn't very attractive i feel like I can trust him. I don't know if I should go for him and work my ass off to try and get him or I should just try and move on (which hasn't been working.) (link)
|
Well, to be honest it seems like you answered your own question there. If you like him as much as you say you do, then go for it. Don't let anyone else try and tell you what is best for YOU. If it does turn out to be a mistake, so what, that is how we learn to not make them again. I have been there myself. I think you should go for it, because if not, you will always be asking yourself, "what if?"
|
alright i'm a 36A 13/f. I was just wondering how do you transition from like an A to a B or a B to a C?
it's like your boobs dont' just grow over night so how do you know when you should buy a B cup or whatever.
thanks (link)
|
Your breasts grow slowly over a number of years. Usually starting around your age up until you are 18. You won't go from an A to a B overnight, you are correct. But, when they do grow and reach the next cup size (if you are destined to be a greater cup size), you will notice that your breats bascially don't fit, or overflow, the cup size you are wearing now. Bascially, you will just be able to tell because of how the fit of your current bra will feel.

Yesterday I started tanning , btw I'm 15 female. I have a semi-formal on friday so I tanned yesterday, today and will continue untill friday. I will stop after that and maybe go a couple weeks before summer but I'm not sure yet. I've heard about skin cancers and such but is it true ? And If i go only this week can that effect my heath? I'm really worried I'm such a healthy person and a comlete freak about this stuff. Should I just stop? Do you know anyone who has gotten skin cancer from tanning?? Thanks in advance ! (link)
|
Any amount of exposure to UV rays (such as those in tanning beds) can give you skin cancer. I do know someone who got skin cancer from tanning. It's a terrible thing to go through. I used to tan and ended up with spider veins because of it. It's not worth it in my opinion. Now I go for spray tans, it's much safer, and you get more color faster.

i'm 13 years old. recently i found a little tiny bump on my nipple, but you could barely see it. could this be breast cancer? aren't i too young to have it? but what is the youngest age you can get it? or if anybody has the same thing or knows a lot about it would help me! (link)
|
It is quite possible that the bumps around your nipples that you are describing are mammary glands, which naturally appear on the areola (the circular pigmented area that surrounds the actual nipple) and look like small pimple-like bumps. The purpose of these glands is to help women deliver milk to babies when they are breastfeeding. In addition, the nipple is surrounded by hair follicles, and hair can be found around the outside of the areola. The amount of actual hair varies from woman to woman, usually begins to grow around puberty, and increases as you grow. This is a completely normal occurrence and is not a medical problem.
Most likely those are mammary glands, so don't worry about them, your body is just going through the changes a girls body starts going throgh at your age. I have them too, and i'm 20. No worries. :)

i just started wearing bras. i have a doctors appointment tomorrow. so when i have to take off my clothes (and wear the gown) do i take off my bra?
thanks (link)
|
It depends, the doctor or the assistant that takes you to the room should tell you. If not, just ask. It depends on what you are going to the doctor for also. :)
|
|
should i shave down there? i did and i dont think i did it right. which way do i shave? like towards where the hair grows or against it. you know what i mean? like..can you just explain howww i should shave downt there? thanks SO much, you guys are too cool. =) (link)
|
Shave against the way the hair is growing first. Then shave the other way. This helps because all hair might not grow in the same direction, doing it both ways helps a lot. Make sure you use a good amount of shaving cream (preferably the kind for sensitive skin) so you don't get any red bumps. Shaving is totally up to you. There is no definate yes or no to that. :)

im tired of taking BC pills everyday to prevent pregnancy. Isnt there like a shot i can get from my doctor that will prevent me from getting pregnant for like 5 years no matter if i use protection or not? (link)
|
You get the shot every 3 months. My friend was on it though, and still ended up getting pregnant, because there is no way to tell how fast or slow it will run through someones body. A lot of my friends who are or were on it didn't like what it did to them. Messed them up pretty bad, a lot of spotting, weight gain, etc. But if you are really against the pills, then go for it. It reacts different with everyone. I just wanted to make sure you hear both sides. :) Good luck.
|
|
for some reason, it never fails, after sex i get a bad urinary tract infection. my mother is beginning to wonder why i keep getting these out of the blue. is there anything that can prevent this? (link)
|
Yes there is. As soon as possible after sex, go pee. This helps flush out any bacteria that may be around and/or trying to enter the urinary tract. After that, make sure you clean up. If you can't take a shower soon after, then try to clean yourself up as well as you can. You can use baby wipes, a washcloth, or whatever you can find. Basically staying and being clean especially after sex is important. Drinking cranberry juice also helps a lot.

Adam and Eve were white right..? Then how did chinese/mexican/etc. people get here? And Adam and Eve didn't have any daughters..so did Cane and Able do it with their mom to keep the population growing?! (link)

They weren't necessarily white. Jesus wasn't. Let's think of where he was born....hmm...yes just read the bible and you can draw your own conclusions....

I'm going tomorrow morning to get my cartilage pierced and i'm not exactly sure where i'm going.
my question is, which hurts less
gun or needle?
i've had my belly button periced with a needle.
and all other pericings on my ear done with a gun
but i don't know about a cartilage.i'm thinking a gun since i know it will be painful, but i know that a gun would be quicker.
also, right or left side?
i'm thinking the .. left
(my left)
:D thanks. (link)
| |
The cartilage is thick, (think of it like thin bone) so a needle would be very painful. I have one pierced and I had it with a gun. It doesn't hurt until the next day. It is very sensitive so watch where you hold your phone and which side you sleep on lol. I think the left side is cute (because that's where mine is pierced!) lol! Good luck :)

okay, i'm not sure what's wrong with my skin.. because it's itchy, and it starts out as looking like goose bumps. and starts itching.. then gets worse.. now i have something that looks like a scab that itches.. but it's not really a scab.. i showed it to my mom, and she was basically scrapping it with her finger, and says that it has water in it.. and that it had "bubbles" and water was coming out.. and she told me not to use soap because it'll make it itch more. it's starting to spread.. and i don't know what is it. my family has a dry skin problem.. and i just don't know.. help? what is it? what's wrong? and how can i cure it?
no, it's not scabbies, posion ivy or psirosis.. because if i did, i would've gave it to one of my family members, my boyfriend, and my friends.. but i'm with them all the time, and they don't have it. so it's not contagious..
(link)
|
I just had this. It was a reaction due to bed bugs. I realized I got itchier when I was in bed. Cleaned the sheets and vaccumed the mattress and was better. but i did go to the doctor to treat the skin rash. she prescribed me a special cream and gave me Clearatin.

i'm thinking of buying some thongs for myself. are they uncomfortable at all? are they worth it to buy a few? (link)
|
They might be a bit uncomfortable at first, so just buy a couple, nothing fancy at first. They were a bit uncomfortable for me at first but now I wear them all the time! I think you should defidently give it a try!

i had sex last night(12/19) unprotected ..and im really scared that i may be pregnant. im supposed to get my period in 4 more days.. so if i get my period does that mean i am not pregnant? any other info would be great thanks (link)
|
If you are scared of getting pregnant then you shouldn't be having unprotected sex. Besides that, if you get it in a few days it doesn't necessarily mean you aren't pregnant. This is because sperm can live inside the vagina for up to 3 days, maybe more, and it would take time for the sperm to reach the egg. So it is possible that if you get your period that you are pregnant, but sort of unlikely. What you should do is take a pregnancy test after your period to check. Be careful next time so you don't have to put yourself through this again, I know how nerve racking it can be. (Don't forget if you worry too much now, your period can be delayed due to stress) so try not to worry too much until then.

i have to play this (the 3rd movement) for an audition on janurary 12th.
i was wondering what tips you have for the overall musicality of the piece- or anything i can do to impress the judges with it.
im 16 and have been playing for 7 years about. this orchestra is pretty big (half the state is auditioning) (link)
|
lol @ answer below me. There are no keys on a viola. Anywho, the advice I have you may very well know already, but just incase i will say what I think anyway. Learn the piece inside and out first, just normally. Then, what I usually do is to find a way to connect myself to the piece. what does it say to me? what does it remind me of? i try to make the piece as personal as possible, and through that i can play with my own little "touch". add your own little flare here and there, without completely changing the original feeling of the piece itself. i don't know if this will help, but i tried my best. :)
