ok well i am not really sure what is the best way to check if a condom has broken after haing sex??????? (link)
|
The best way is to fill it up with water, check for leakage.

I don't mean to get graphic... but I've been on the pill for about three months now.. a little more... i've still got two weeks before my next period but I have some symptoms of a pregnant woman. My nipples are extremely sore and sensitive.. it will bother me so much that I can't sometimes wear a shirt to bed without a bra. This doesn't occur this badly before my period anyways. And I'm not so much tired, I'm exausted. I haven't noticed any nausea. Should I wait to take a pregnancy test? Could I be pregnant? (link)

Here is the thing, the pill tricks your body into making it think that it is pregnant so that you don't ovulate. If you don't ovulate (because you are on the pill) you can not get pregnant. This only works if you take the pill at the SAME TIME every day. Now, you said you slacked on your pills a few times, but since it was only the sugar pill ,that doesn't matter. The sugar pill is just to keep you in the habit of taking the pill every day. But, if you slack for more than about 10-15 minutes from the time you usually do, when you are on the colored pills, then the pill is not effective (and you will have to wait another month for it to be as effective), and you can get pregnant. And no, the sugar pills do not give you any protection, because if they were to work the same as the colored (called 'active') pills, you would not get a period during that time.
So, the symptoms are most likely from the pill's hormones that are making your body thinking you are pregnant. You have only been the pill a short amount of time, and your body needs to get used to the hormones. But, if your "sixth sense" is very strong, I suggest taking a pregnancy test just in case.

how much effective is morning after pill? is it 99% effective? i heard that the first time, you never get pregnant. is that true? (link)
|
The morning after pill is most effective if taken within the first 24hrs of unprotected sex. It is not 99% effective EVER. As taken from the Plan B website...
"Plan B® should be taken within 3 days (72 hours) of unprotected sex and can reduce the risk of pregnancy by up to 89%. But the sooner you take it the more effective it will be."
It is not true that you never get pregnant the first time you take it. Basically, the way the percentage of you not getting pregnant breaks down is...for every 8 women who take it, 7 of them will NOT get pregnant. So, there is still a chance that you can get pregnant even after you take it, but it is still very effective.

My boyfriend and I have been thinking about having sex. I told him I was going to find out any possible thing that could happen first. I was wondering how long sex generally hurts girls after. If you have any answers that would be great. Thanks. (link)
|
Sex usually hurts the most the first time. After you continue to have more, the pain usually subsides. But, for some women, certain positions cause slight pain and discomfort no matter how long they have been having it. Just like the person below me said, it does vary for every woman, this is usually because of the varation in the anatomy of every women, (example: women with a low cervex, which experience pain because the penis aggrivates it during sex), etc.
|
The last time I had sex was back in mid-August, 2 days before I got my period. I've gotten it both in August and September. I always have it around the 17th and I'm never late. But for this month, I still haven't gotten it. So is it possible that I could be pregnant?
And...
Is it true that sometimes for the first couple months of your pregnancy you can still get your period, because your body is adjusting to your pregnancy.
*~Thanx...I will rate high!~* (link)

Let me clear something up, yes, it is true that some women continue to have a period even though they are pregnant. BUT, it is not a full-blown period, is it usually lighter than your regular period. Anywhere from 20-30% of women experience some degree of bleeding in early pregnancy. (First trimester)Approximately half of pregnant women who bleed do not have miscarriages. Approximately 15-20% of all pregnancies result in a miscarriage, and the majority occur during the first 12 weeks. Bleeding beyond the first trimester indicates problems with the pregnancy.
Bleeding can occur in early pregnancy due to the following factors, aside from the above mentioned complications:
Implantation bleeding is one of many normal pregnancy symptoms and can occur anywhere from 6-12 days after possible conception. Every woman will experience implantation bleeding differently—some will lightly spot for a few hours, while others may have some light spotting for a couple of days.
Some type of infection in the pelvic cavity or urinary tract may cause bleeding.
After intercourse some women may bleed because the cervix is very tender and sensitive. You should discontinue intercourse until you have been seen by your doctor. This is to prevent any further irritation—having normal sexual intercourse does not cause a miscarriage.
So, yes, you could still be pregnant, but your chances are pretty low. Your late period could be due to stress, worry, eating changes, weight changes, or just your body being off. It is not uncommon for girls to be off in their cycle once in a while. If you want, take a test to be sure.

My boyfriend & I had sex on friday. Thing is, he didn't put on a condom at first for like maybe the first minute and then he put one on. We've had sex about 3 times before that this month, all with a condom. I have no way of getting the morning after pill because I'm 17 and all my friends that are 18 are all busy now. I know I shouldn't have waited till the last minute but I wasn't worried and now I am quite worried and panicking. Should I even bother taking it? You have to take two, one lets say I take now and the next pill 12 hours later... which would be after the timerange of the effectiveness of the pill anyway? What are the chances because I'm supposed to get my period at the end of this month?
Thanks so much. (link)
|
I doubt you are pregnant. Though I could go on and on about how if there was ANY liquid secreted from his penis during that minute, it did contain sperm, and COULD get you pregnant, but you seem smart enough to know there there is a high sperm count in pre-cum. Anyways, the pill works BEST if taken within 24hrs, and the chances of it working become smaller and smaller up until the 72hr mark. I don't think it is needed though. But be careful next time so you don't end up stessing until your next period comes, because that stress can make your period late, and that will just increase the stress again.

Okay... I've been off the shot for nearly six months. I had sex unprotetcted over last weekend and I'm wondering if its possible that I'm pregnant. I think it is but im not too sure. My sister said it took her nearly a year and a half to get pregnant, as well as my sister in-law. My other sister that was on the shot is having a problems trying to get pregnant. Do you think I am or What? Im confused~! (link)
|
Actually, my best friend was on the shot, ended up getting pregnant literally RIGHT after she got off. It is different for everyone because the drug will run differently through different people's bodies. For some, it takes longer for the effect to wear off and be able to get pregnant, for some it's just the opposite. So if you indeed did (and will continue to) have unprotected sex, there is still a chance of you getting pregnant. Just wait and take a pregnancy test to be sure, is all you can do.

ok so im going to see my crush tomorrow at the football game, only prob. he is coming there with his ex gf and i just found out they watched tv together today.but he says that she was sending him mixed signals. so question one should i even bother going to the game? if i go should i just ignore him? or should i steal his attention? and what should i do to be unforgetable? how should i dress,act,etc? man im confused (link)
|
Well here is how I see it....are you going to the game tomorrow JUST to see him? Is it a planned thing between you and him? Or are you going on your own and just plan on seeing him?
If you and him planned to go together, bringing his ex is just disrespectful and you should not even bother going.
If you are going on your own and are going just knowing you will see him there, AND you know he is bringing his ex, then it probably means he is still interested in her. Especially if they were hanging out watching tv together, etc. It just seems like he still wants to be with her.
So you can choose to go still, if you wish. Thought it seems like he still wants to be with her, you can still go and try and show her up. You can draw attention to yourself by dressing cute, classy, nice. (Though guys claim they like girls who dress skanky, they only like them because they are easy. Those girls are NOT the type they SERIOUSLY date). So don't show up with your boobs hangin all over the place lol, that's just trashy. Showing his ex up by looking sexy and cute without being trashy will make it harder for her to talk crap about you.
You can also steal attention by just making general conversation with him. Act normal. Don't overdo yourself. Coming on too strong will scare him away. Also, don't be disrespectful to his ex (no matter how much you don't like her) because that will just come off to him like you are a bitch, (excuse my language lol). So be nice, funny, cool, and that will most likely work. Just be you, and good luck!

help me with ths guy problem - Today, 02:55 AM
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ok so i've had a crush on this guy for 7 years and i just told him recently how i feel . we talk all the time at least once a day. but the prob. is his best friend whom i have no interest in what so ever has a huge crush on me its to the point of obsession and the guy i like used to date my little sister. he is the same age as me though, he just think it be weird to be with me after dating my sister and i also believe he dont wanna hurt his friend's feelings. up till three days ago i thought we were just friends thats it but then he started say he wanted to " Sleep with me" i accidently sent the message to his friend, who says he is just messing with me. but he confroted his frend(my crush) online last nite and i was talking to my crush at the time and he(my crush) said that his friend was asking why he(my crush) was hitting on me . my crush im'd me saying that he could get himself out of trouble with his friend. he told me what he told his friend he said that he was using reverse psychology on me then laugh about it with me. i said twice well he(my crushes friend) dont have anything to worry about its not like u have feelings for me right? and he never responded. WHAT SHOULD I DO ? DOES HE LIKE ME OR IS HE JUST MESSING WITH ME? PLZ HELP
(link)
|
A bit confusing but I think I got it lol. I have NO doubts that your crush wants to sleep with you. Why? Because a guy doesn't just "say that" stuff, he almost always means it. Now, what you need to ask yourself is....is he saying he wants to sleep with me because he really likes me? OR, is it because you recently told him how you feel towards him, so he feels that you will be 'easy' because he already knows you like him. I only say it like that because I don't want you to end up getting hurt if he just sleeps with you because he knows you like him, and that you would do it. I do think it would be a bit weird since he was dating your sister, and his friend would probably be hurt too. But, this is a decision you are going to have to make. Really look at the facts. Pay attention to how he acts towards you. And especially ask yourself the question "why" for what he is doing/saying. Why would he be saying this now? Would he be acting the same way if I hadn't told him I liked him? etc...let me know if you have any more questions! or if there is anything you would like me to clear up.

ok, so im going to a concert, and im ordering the tickets online.. and same with the parking tickets. The tickets for parking say lot 3 or whatever, but then it says something like GA1.. what does that mean? like a garage? The concert is at the AT&T center in San Antonio, Texas, if it helps! (link)
|
GA usually means General Admission...saying that there are no seats, thereofre you are standing on the floor. It depends, that usually happens for bands or for someone who is doing a concert in the round. Who are you seeing?

so me and my boyfriend just had sex yesturday. Only im not sure if its considered sex. I was a virgin and he wasnt. and his penis did go inside me but he didnt finish. It was taking a while and it kind of hurt and i was tired so we stopped. So i dont know if that counts or not.
help?
thanks (link)
|
yes it counts, no matter if he finshed or not, his penis went inside of your vagina, and that is what sex it. whether or not you orgasm (though it is the "point" of sex) has nothing to do with if it is sex or not because you don't always orgasm when you have sex.

to use female condoms
and male condoms at the same time
beacuse i want to make sure i am safe
will that be okay using both (link)
|
No it is not because the rubber against rubber motion will cause friction and cause one or both condoms to break. The safter of the two is the male condom. Women who want extra birth control should go on the pill or use spermicide.
|
|
what are some things i can tell my doctor that can get them to put me on or ask me if i want to be put on birth control. I dont want to strait out say, can you put me on birth control or mention sex (link)
|
The only way they give birth control is if a girls menstrual cycle is very irregular. You could say that, and they may put you on, yes. But, you should tell your doctor it is because you are, or want to be, sexually active. It is a HUGE thing to make sure you don't lie or keep anything from your doctor. You doctor can't legally tell your parents why you are being put on it, so don't worry about your doctor ratting you out for having sex. It is important to tell your doctor you are having sex because sex involes a whole lot more with your body and they need to make sure that you are okay. Trust me, i've been there before, just be honest.

So there were my step-sisters - boyfriends kids over... and they played MY gamecube for 4 hours straight... and my mom said that if they broke it then she would replace it.... AND THEY BROKE IT, MY GAMECUBE
and my mom said that she would pay $40 for a new one, when they are MORE THAN THAT. But she found a stupid cheap one on ebay. But i spent HOURS playing that, and i bought over $360 worth of stuff for it and all she is giving me is 40 bucks... how gay is that???
i really want a wii, but she said the only way i can get that is for christmas when she PROMISED ME A NEW GAMING SYSTEM... so i am really pissed off.
please help me... and i have start saving up for christmas so i cant go out and buy one my self
from a 13 yeard old girl who is really ticked off!!! (link)
|
What you need to do is speak not only to your mom about this problem, but more importantly, your step-sister and her boyfriend. Their children were the ones who broke it, and therefore should help pay for a new one, or a completely different gaming system. It is just the right thing to do. Tell them how you feel, and then bring it up to your mother again. Remind them that what happened was not your fault, and you should not have to replace it yourself, you are only 13 and can't just go dish out a few hundred bucks on a whim. Make your opinion known, and make valid points. It is also a good idea to TRY (because i can tell how upset your are) to do this calmly, so it doesn't just come off as yelling or whining. They are more likely to listen to you if you are polite during the conversation.

Those tv make it easier because 1) they workout sometimes 8 hrs a day 2) they are secluded in a house where they eat only what is there, which makes it easier to fight temptation...because they can't just go buy whatever they want. 3) they work with very good personal trainers.
Remember, all these people HAVE to do every day when they are on these shows IS workout. No jobs, of other obligations.
In the first few weeks, the reason why they lose so much weight is because they weigh (usually) over 250lbs. The heavier you are, the more weight you lose early on because what you lose initially is called "water weight". It's all the extra water your body is holding because of your size. After the first few weeks....it slows down. Also, it depends on the persons metabolism. (Guys tend to lose more, faster than women).
The weight you need to be healthy depends on the frame of your body, your bone structure. Your doctor can help you determine what the best weight would be for you.
If you need more advice on this, let me know! I'd be glad to help.

do ur boobs hurt when u have breast cancer becouse my nipples hurt!... (link)
|
Let me run down the possibilies...
If you are old enough to be having your period...chances are it is because of that. For a lot of women, up to 14 days before their period their breasts are sore, and their nipples can hurt, and are more sensative to the touch. Or, it could be your first period coming, if you have yet to have one.
If you are old enough to have your period and you are having unprotected sex, it could be a sign of pregnancy.
I am going to say you probably do not have breat cancer, taking as I am assuming you are fairly young. Don't stress yourself out. It's probably just your bodies hormones.

I am 15 years old almost 16 in March
and i'm still a 34A for bra's .
is there even anything i can possibly do to make my boobs bigger ?
please tell me i'll really apreciate it! (link)
|
Wait for them to grow. You're 15. Honestly, there's nothing you can do to make them grow any faster. People might say there are remidies to make them grow faster. Not true. Everyones body grows at different rates. Might not be the answer you want to hear, but it's the right one.

i recently hurt my knee (i have a torn MCL)
and my boyfriend is coming back into town this weekend and im worried about comfort during sex hes a pretty big guy and im just wondering what kind of position might be the most appropriate
thanks (link)
|
mostly all of them probably require you having your knee bent at some angle. it depends on how much discomfort you have right now. if you think you can have it bent or some time, and you don't want to move too much, missionary would be the easiest way to go, since some of the others require pressure to be put on your knee. Try them all out and change if one is too painful. Or you can just not have sex until it fully heals.

I'm considering to audition for my school talent show but i'm still debating about it.
All my family tell me I can sing, and try and encourage me but i'm still really unsure.
Btw, I'm not on here fishing for compliments, I want people to be comepletley honest with me;
So If you could listen to this and tell me what you think it would be much appreciated..

(It's a rough recording of me singing emergency by paramore.)
thankyou.

Sounds good. You just need more breath support, especially when you are singing high in your range to avoid going flat. If you practice that, and by using your diaphram for breath support to push those notes you, you will be good to go.
