I had sex 3 months ago in beginning of January around 2 days after seeing my period. I saw my period in February and in March. But now in April it is a week and 2 days late is it possible that I may be pregnant or could this just be stress. The bottom of my belly hurts me at time. Please help me as I am worried and confused. (link)
| |
although it is possible.. it is VERY VERY VERY rare to become pregnant after that long. you could have a cyst like the advisor said below, you could also just be passing more than one egg at a time. although thats rare naturally, it does happen and can cause pain, but that does not mean that your pregnant.i doubt its anything too serious but.. if it does not go away i would adivse you go to the doctor or call a nurses hotline. (ex: bluesheild health insurance has their own nurses hotline you can call to see if you need to go to doctors) anyways good luck take care

im 14 and ive never used a tampon. i dont understand why i cant do it. since like i cant get in into my vagina. like it hurts so badly and it like doesnt fit? and i can never find it. i can always read the directions. but it still doesnt help me. ahh help =( (link)
| |
well your hymen might be strong.. so it is not breaking or streching enough to let the tampon in. but before you assume this try using water aroudnt he applicator of the tampon. try the smallest tampon you can buy. if water does not work doctors advise using water based lube. using lotion can give you an infection. and honestly even for me iv been using them for like 5 years and sometimes it still hruts or i get resistance when putting it in. go slow and try to relax. if it does not work after trying this you may want to see your doctor if you still would like to use tampons. They will do a simple procedure IF NESSESARY.. cutting the hymen so it stretches without causing you pain. it is simple and doesnt hurt. i hope this explains enough. good luck.

ok, well. ever since this morning at volleyball i have had a pain in my side... lower than my left rib and kind of at the same height as my hip but closer to my belly button. and it's a very very sharp pain, it hurts when i laugh and when i bend my torso, like sitting up or laying down. it hurts unbelieveably bad and it's not going away.
i need some help on what it is and how to get rid of it. and if i should get it checked out.
ps. i need this question answered FASSST! (link)
| |
well it could be many things. it could jsut be pain in your ovaries (you could be ovulating). it could be your kidneys (if it felt near your back as well). it could be a hernia. thats pretty much a tear in tissue. you would feel soemthing kinda buldge if you put your hand over it and coughed or laughed hard. it could jsut be something in your bowels. or it could just be a strained muscle from sports.. because your a girl (i presume) you have alot of stuff shoved inside of you in tight spaces down there. if it does not go away and its more than jsut a pull or strain, go to the doctors.

Hey im 17/f and i went to the doctors for birth control and recommended Yaz. I got it and i wanted to know a little bit more about it. If you're on it what are the good effects and bad effects of it? Can you please just tell me a little bit more about it. Thanks a bunch! (link)
| |
first month for me was so dizzy and light headed i would have to stop walking and sit down constantly. (no im not out of shape)cramps were terrible, it made me sick if i forgot a pill. now 7 months later, still dizy, still light headed, doesnt help with bloating, i still get sick before my perios, my cramps are worse, my periods saty 10-14 days long. (my first period on the pill was like 18 days). i had perfect periods before i started it, they were just very irragular. i would go months without them. i wish i was not on it. i hate it. i have been on three other kinds of birth control and they worked better for me than yaz. but its low dosage so the side effects are lower.. if i did not need to take it i wouldnt. but hopefully it will work for you!

15/f...Everytime i wear a tampon (regular absorbancy) i always get it on the pad i am wearing to. I am going to the beach this weekend and all next week and i cant get blood on my bathing suits. I was going to try to switch to a higher absorbancy but on regulars, it takes a long time to get full because usually when i take it out after 5 hours there is still a little white showing on the tampon. What should i do? (link)
| |
try a different brand. i know with tampax i have that problem no matter what size. try OB or tampax sport. those work best for me and i dont need to wear a pad or anything with them

Im only 18. I have a full time job, but i still live with my parents. My fiance is going to college next year and im not sure what im going to do. I want to get married and have a baby. We both want them. I want to get married because it feels normal although we both understand that we need to have money, and a house, and good jobs i feel so ready it feels right. I already started thinking about baby names with him and we are completely ready. I know that we could take care of a baby if we had to but at the same time he wants to wait. I understand the consquences but its just i dont want to wait but then again i do. What should i do? Is this normal? (link)
| |
actually.. it is normal. forevery person it comes at differnt times. i had posted pretty much the same question a while ago on here and people told me to be an adult and control my urgers. but im going to say is stay away from that talk, the tv shows, and going in and looking at the new baby stuff or reading up on baby health websites and stuff.. because you both know how bad you want one.. and putting it out of your mind while your busy shouldnt kill the drive to want the family or to buy a house is this terrible economy. actually yesterday i was reading an artcile about development. *apperently* your frontal lobe (part of your brain, does allthe processing, critical thinking ect) is not done being formed till your 25. that is why some people say dont marry till 25 or have babies till 25 (they say your not fully mature...). and although i have a wounderful boyfriend, and a great career already, i too still live with my dad and have more years of school to take on. so i try to put it out of my mind so i dont try to rush it. it seemed like the more my boyfriend was accepting to it and would bring it up himself, the more i wanted it. so we kinda had to stop talking about it so we did not feed off of eachother. i say to try that... it has worked pretty good for me. pregnantless and baby less!

I met a guy on vacation and we both really love each other n he asked me out I said yes. But I really dono, I love him, but it turned into a long distance relationship and so far I just cant take it. Were total opposites but we both love each other but if I am gona keep getting broken by it and never be able to see him only talk, what is the use. Even last night, he wouldn’t talk to me so him n my bff could text, then talking about each other non stop to me wtf. But then he asked if it was ok if he added her to his myspace an if its ok that he would not call me n I just texted “I guess, bye” “ok well have fun ima proly just go to sleep now bye I love u, night”. They both know I had an extremely bad day and that im bipolar and just having trouble. I can’t even explain it to my other friend, but I finally told her about my depression an bipolar an what had been going on w me, n told her I was done with life done with whatever it is im trying to live through. What can I do its down to stupid stuff like this that bothers me enough to cry hard for 3 hours. when i said im about to loose it, i just lost it. (link)
| |
i have had many bipolar friends. my mother is. i have delt with it all my life. to help this, you need things to be as stable as possible iny our life. long distance relationships are stressful and there are ups and downs. days full of doubt and hopelessness because you dont see it going anywhere and days where they make you so happy you can hardly contain telling them every second you love them... weither you see the bi polar thing as a big deal here.. it is. i dontknow ifyour medicated.. but even if you aare.. you need things in your life you can balance better.. a physical relationship will do so much better for you. im not sure how old you guys are but it could be months or years before you guys could see eachother again or have a real date.. you as a person need more than that from a relationship. so get out of it. because the ups and downs of that kind of relationship is not good for you. it will save fights with family, friends, him, and depression bought on by yourself thinking about all of that.

I am in highschool and in the begining of the year, I met this girl. As time passed, she grew more and more annoying. She is an attention junky and will do anything to get noticed. Some of the things she has done have been extremely embarrassing to the point when I ask myself why do I know her. She won't leave me and my friends alone and we have gotten into many fights. I am sick of her and I don't want to spend the rest of my highschool career with her by my side. I wish she would just leave me alone. She is dreadful just to speak to on the phone. What do I do? I have already tried telling her I don't want to be her friend. Please ~~~help! (link)
| |
i would say dont answer her phone calls... dont call her. dont ask to hang out when you see her somewhere. slowly she will get that their is no friendship there and will stop trying to bug you. if she does not.. if she is the type of person that goes totoaly crazy.. get a restraining order.. atleast an inschool one.. so you can have your highschool life back to yourself.

I was recently diagnosed with polycystic ovary disease. To help with the symptoms, I need to lose weight. I know that this means I need to change my lifestyle - the way I eat and how active I am. I don't have a lot of money and I live in the city. My apartment is fairly small. These aren't excuses, just information to give you an idea of my situation. I don't need anyone saying mean or obvious things like "don't eat as much" or "get off your ass" because that is in no way helpful.
Basically, any advice anyone could give about how I can lose weight, either to do with eating or physical activity, would be very much appreciated. Thank you. (link)
|
i have pcos too. and im a veg. what i have been doing for the last few months is cut down to like.. half sized meals. i dont knwo if you eat alot of like morning star (or other already preped vegterian foods) and stuff like that but its not the healist for you. so take one day out of the week and MAKE the food yourself. soemtimes when you pick the right thing to cook this saves you tons of money. i do it with lasugna.. because i can freeze it and make it how i want and less salt.. and bigger quanity it saves me bunches. for good things liek that try www.vegweb.com (thats vegan but you can always add things to be vegeterian). if you live in a city alot of malls have been known to have "walkers" you can usuaaly go to the secirty office or soemthing and eitehr get a little card or jsut tell them who you are and that way you can walk inside so you dont have to walk or run in the rain with creepy people.
(they ask you to let them know so they dotnt hink some speed walkers are walking back and forth all day long) also a big thing with PCOS is inches not just weight. i think its 35 and 1/2 inche waist and down is best for it. also if you are going to do any kind of walking or jogging it is best to do carido (get your heart rate up) for about 20 minuutes then walk for 5-10 then speed it up again for 20 miutes. repeating that should help. once a day, 2 times a week... however often is best for you that will do the job over time. anyways. i hope those are some okay simple ideas so i hope that helps

alot of people ask how they can lose weight but i wanna know how i can GAIN weight. im 17 years old and i weigh 98 pounds and i have a small frame. i used weight gain pills and those didnt seem to work. and i would like to gain atleast 10 pounds. any help wold work (link)
| |
well if your metabalism is fast then your going to have to eat more calories. these calories should be made up of healthy carbs (like wheat, toast, oats, rice, ect.. the less processes the carbs have gone through the easier it is for your body to burn them) so your body will burn carbs while storing healthy fats and protein (muscles). make sure your taking iron pills. eat fish, chicken, beans, beef, ect. these should nto be fried bec ause all hough it may have mroe fat and calories it is bad for your heart and will not get you any healthier. try doing light weights too to gain muscle. hopefully in a few weeks youll see imporvment. it c an be a long road to gaining weight but that should work. consult your doctor too if your on any mediations

say if you were to work full time. what would your hours be daily? and what would you do, but not be manager. also how much would the pay be an hour? please only say if you worked there or really know. (link)
| |
full time hours vary. 21 hours and up. the victory secret here is really good about making weird shifts for college kids. and your jsut a sales accociate. as for hourly it depends on where you live. different sates have different min wages. a very good friend worked there. not me. so i dont know everything. but she liked working there.

So people understand, I'm 17 and my brother is 15. This past Sunday I was in my room getting ready to take a shower. I heard a noise from my brother's closet (his closet shares a wall with my room) but figured my brother was just doing something there, and went about my business. After my shower I came back to my room and started getting ready for bed. As I was putting on my underwear I heard a noise again in my brother's closet like a moan. I don't know why, but I felt wierd. After I put on my pj's I looked at the wall and saw a small hole about seven feet up the wall. On Monday afternnon I went into my brother's closet and saw the hole. My brother can see almost my entire room. It was him I heard spyong on me on Sunday.
I come from a very religious Jewish family. My brother was always very religious. He even has private Jewish studies teachers to learn more than he gets in school. I can't believe he would do such a thing. When I think about how he's seen me undressed and doing very private things, things no one knows I've done, I get sick to my stomach. I don't know what to do. Sould I talk my parents, should I confront my brother? My parents probably won't believe he ever spied on me because he's such a good kid and I don't want to have that kind of discussion with my brother about what he did and saw. I can't talk to teacher or friends about this because I might have to admit to doing those private things. But I feel like i'm going to explode (link)
|
Wow, you have every right to feel grossed out, and really confused about why he would do that. although i usualy dont talk about other columist answers, i have to tell you i dont think you should try to get revenge on him. i dont know how religious you are, (im studying judaism for converson) and i dont think thats morally right. that will not fix how you feel about it. i would take the time to think about what bugged you about it (you have plenty of reasons im sure) and i would talk to your brother about it. i wouldnt straight out ask him if he did it, because that can make him become very defensive and he may not help you. So after you tell him what you know happened, you might ask him if he has anything to say to you, and tell him that you still love him but that it was not an okay thing to do. I would not talk to your parents right away because, like you said they may start to defend him without listening to it all, and it can start a triangle of gossip. I really hope it works out.
and definetly cover the hole.

i'm 18 years old and i weigh 112 pounds. i think im around 5'5 inches or so.
am i at a healthy weight for my age and height?
thanks to everyone who answers! (link)
|
http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/
i put iny our height and weight. if you lost even a fraction of a pound you would be underweight. so.. although your about a half apound from being in the category of UNDERWEIGHT.. my opinion has always been stay at your stable weight, its not good to go up then back down, if that is where you eat healthy and play healthy and live healthy, your okay, if you are always tired, having iron problems, any health problems really.. you should talk about gaining weight with your doctor, or just your parents.. a healthy weight is one where your mental and physical abilities are not compromised. if you feel good, the bmi index says your.. alright, if your doctor has never talked to you then you should be alright.

im having soon
i need some MAJOR ideas for food...
im not getting it catored. please help!
(link)
| |
when making food for a large number of people have things for people on diets, vegeterians, meat lovers, ect. have PLENTY of drinks bcause ven if people dotn eat tons, they will surely take soemthing to drink, so lemonade, sodas, waters, (vitamin waters, new hip stuff), energy drinks, v 8 juice, ect. anything you find you your friends and your family like, get a little bit of it. as for food, things like chips are good (dips not so much a good idea, an INSANE amount of bacteria can grow in them if someone double dips).. and things like grapes, strawberries, rasberries, cackers cheese and meats, potatoe salad, beef jerky, cup cakes, Remeber grab and go stuff so everybody isnt touching all over everybody eles stuff. if you are looking towards a sit down meal you should look into soemthing you can make in big porportions like.. pasta, raviolies, pizza, simple salad, make your own taco, ect. easy stuff you can make and throw in a bowl and let people ssit down and eat!

I'm an addict. No, I'm not a druggie, an alcoholic, none of that. I'm a computer addict.
I spend AT LEAST 5 hours daily on the computer on school days. On days that I'm free I will spend all of my waking hours on the computer (for example today, I was online nonstop from 8:30am to 11:30pm, right now).
This is getting out of control. My family is breaking apart because of it, my school work is suffering as well. I no longer have a social life, I stopped doing the sport that I used to love so passionately.
I think the reason I'm (psychologically) addicted is because its a way to escape for me. I'm pretty depressed and lonely, and the computer helps me cheer up and forget my problems.
I had suspected that I had a problem for a while now (two years). What finally triggered me to ask help is that my mom tearfully and angrily lectured me that I live in filth (which is true, my room is disgusting, but I don't clean it because I'm on the computer), that "when we're all together we're not a family anymore because of you, because of the way you treat your brother and father and even me, your mother." What hurt me the most was when she said that she has a stupid, lazy, selfish, 17-year old daughter who would rather be with a computer than with her family.
But it makes me upset and angry because they're really the reason for this, I'm never good enough, I'm lazy and stupid no matter what or how much I do. My brother is the perfect angel and can do no wrong. My dad has these horrible habits (thundering on the phone, stomping when he walks: the whole house literally shakes, chews extremely loudly) that really irritate me, and I've tried talking to him about it, but he practically says that I shut my mouth and suck it up, because he's not doing anything about it. I can't even eat with him because I'm in tears halfway through dinner because the noise of his chewing (and its only him) really extremely irritates me. I've been eating my meals alone for the past 2 years or so. My mom, dad and brother eat together. And when he is shouting at the top of his lungs on the phone when I'm trying to do homework... I just can't stand it and I think its extremely inconsiderate of him, and rude.
What do I do? Where do I start? How can I fix things up with my dad? I can't get any professional help because my parents believe that I am the only reason of the problems that I have. I don't really know who to believe anymore. All I know that I'm sad, depressed and unhappy, and I hate it. Please help.

when i was 13 the same thing happened to me. i was so MAD if someone wanted to use the computer, i would FREAK out, yell scream hit things, it was.... jsut dumb. one day i was grounded. (for like the first time in my life) NO COMPUTER.. they litterally picked it up and took it away from me. if i could have done it myself i should have. it was possibly the best thing ever to happen to me. i finally went on trips with my friends, i learned to skate board... i started to play volley ball, and i picked up cooking, and reading, WITH BOOKS!... i mean it certainly didnt fix everything in my life (i still disagreed with my parents and brothers), but it made me say wow i dont have to be lazy, i can be happy without sitting on my butt, i didnt run to the computer and tell all my friends online about how i hate my family, i started talked with my family, i played outside, (my brother taught me the skate board), it just.. changed, when i started to use it again i used it like it was the last time in my life, i said what i said nothing more nothing less, i looked up what i needed, i checked what i needed, i used it for what it was made for not just my escape goat.( i woke up at like 11-12 noon and would stay on the computer till 5am.. so this was a huuge differnce.) and my family made all the differnce cause i knew i didnt want to go back to the way i was with it.
I really would hope it would do the same for you.. so what i would tell you to do, as a person that totaly knows what that feels like, is take it away, its not like nicotin, it doesnt control your body, your RIGHT it controls your head, get rid of it, let yourself find things to do with yourself, with your family, if you cant keep yourself away, then have a sit down talk and say you need help.. say you want them to take it away from you, or from the entire family for a while.. since your 17 you could start a job, or just volunteer, say you love animals you could volunteer at an animal shelter.
Dont be too hard on yourself, alot of people resort to the computer as their "own little world" the way people did with quiet librarys full of books did. try hard to stay calm, take time for yourself, wiether it might be in the shower, at night before you go to bed, when you get up, ect.. take time for yourself way from the family so that the time that you spend with your family is quality instead of always fighting. i really hope this all helps and it works out, take care.

ok so. my boyfriend and i have been kind of talking about the possibility of sex for a while? not actually saying "hey, lets have sex on THIS day" or whatever, but just like "yeah i want to," and yeah. well the past few times i went there things had gotten pretty heavy, but his friend was always in his room with us, so i always made him stop. but yesterday his friend wasnt there and we were making out on his bed. eventually i pulled apart from him for a second and pulled out a condom a brought. and i asked "how far are you willing to go with this?" and he kind of looked at me as if i was crazy or high or something.
I HAD NEVER BEEN SO EMBARRASSED IN MY LIFE. he was feeling me up and we were making out for what it seemed like 4-6 minutes! am i getting mixed signals here??? did i do something wrong? i dont even really know why i did that except for the fact that i thought something was about to happen. i talked to him later last night on aim. and he said he didnt want to because he loved me. WTF IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?!?!??!! i think im kinda ready. and hes not a virgin! so i dont get it! can someone attempt to explain this to me? im avoiding him now and i dont wanna talk to him and i wont for a while but i think im wrecking everything but im just so confused. HELP?? thanks. (link)
| |
well.. if you just THINK your ready, it would be safe for you not to do it yet. he might just have freaked out a bit because hes not ready and although it can be fun to talk about it can be scary to do. if someone is not a virgin they might still wanna take some more time, and with every new person it can be like a first time all over again. make sure you both are really ready for it and comfortable at the time. dont blame yourself, just take it slower.

my boyfriend & i have been together for a year & a half and we haven't had sex, but we do fool around a lot (been to 3rd base), and occassionally we send dirty text messages or emails to each other. okay here's the problem..his parents read an email i send him (DIRTY!), they told my parents, and he got his phone/computer taken away, and my parents said i'm not allowed to see him the entire summer. neither of us have our licenses, & now his parents hate me. i don't know what to do. he's my best friend & i can't not talk to him or not see him!!! any advice? (link)
|
my best adivce would be to win over your parents. if you can win them over, they can work with his parents. Parents tend to listen to parents better than kids. So take on more house work, be more calm, udnerstanding, after a few days or weeks sit down with them and have a talk, tell them you dont want this to become a fight, you just need to talk. ask them if they have anything to say before you start. DO NOT INTURRUPT TEM. Then tell them you want 5 minutes to get out everything you feel you need to say and explain, and plleeeaasse nto to butt in. tell them and be HONEST with them, dont just talk about the sexual stuff, talk about the friendship and everything else. Hopfully if you play your cards right they will think about it for a few days and maybe talk to his parents.
...a similar thing happened to me when i was younger, we sent letters to eachother via our other friends houses.. which worked out pretty good so maybe you can try that
anyway try it and i really hope that helps

the only time i orgasm is when i masturbate with a shower head. is there any other way i can achieve an orgasm without sex? and what are some things you use to masturbate that i can find around the house? (link)
| |
if your not old enough to get a vibrator, try one of those electric tooth brushs. i personally have not tried that but some people i know have. also one of those back massagers thats like hand held. this can be a very explicit topic so i dont feel i should give too many solutions but i hope that helps your ideas.

I'm on birth control, Yaz, and when I start taking the white pills I start my period, and it ends 1-2 days after the first pink pill.
Well, I'm going to Europe soon, and I will be getting my period because I'll be on the white pills right in the middle of our vacation. Will it be safe to start a new packet as soon as I finished with the pink pills of the previous packet? Just skip the white pills and start a new packet the next day?
Oh, and I'm not sexually active I'm on the pill to regulate my periods.
(link)
| |
i would not suggest you do that. other birth control pills are speicaly made for less periods. so dont skip your period. if your going to do it anyway atleast do it this way... dont take the last 5 (or how ever many days your period lasts) PINK PILLS... and then start on the white pills. and start the new cycle. dont skip your period.. your period might be lighter this time or shorter, but its better than going without. But honestly.. its not a good thing to do.. but hey good luck.
