me and my boyfriend has safe sex all the time, we also check the condom in the middle of our sex. and i'm just curious, what are the signs of being pregnant? does a wet vagina count as one? because mine is like.. really wet. and sometimes i wake up wanting to throw up but i don't, because it's either i'm hungry or something, but i just know that when it's really cold, i just kind of tighten up and feel like throwing up, so i'm not sure. and i asked my boyfriend if anything happened during sex, he told me that he promised nothing happened and if something did happen, he would've told me and to stop worrying. so i'm just wondering am i pregnant and what are the signs? he said the condom didn't break nor leak, or am i just being paranoid cause my period is coming soon.

For pregnancy signs check here. http://www.coolnurse.com/pregnancy.htm
No, a wet vagina is not a sign of pregnancy.
You are probably not pregnant, but the
possibility exists. Condoms are not 100%
effective. Condoms are 85-90% effective
when it comes to pregnancy prevention.
The truth of the matter for all teens
is, if you are not prepared for parenthood,
do not have sex unless you are on the
birth control pill. Use condoms for
disease prevention. Thats just my opinion. :)

i was wondering, to have birth control, can you just go out to buy it? or do you have to get it prescribed by a doctor? (link)
|
You have to have a pelvic exam and it has to be prescribed by a doctor. For more info...

Hi,Im male 25 and from Ireland.
I am VERY lonely and have no friends, no job, and and now lost my girlfriend. I find that most people find it hard to understand me as im different.
I took an overdose 2 years ago, 72 paill killers and i didnt die. I hate myself and i dont want to live.
Im SOOOoooo lost, isolated, lonely, and in pain. I PRAY TO GOD EVERY NIGHT NOT TO WAKE UP IN THE MORNING.
I went through counselling for over 7 years and have seen maybe counsellors and health professional but it DOESNT help. (link)
|
Don't give up!
First of all you need to learn to stop
hating yourself. Other people pick up
on that. Everyone is important to
somebody out there. I know you are. :)
First work on yourself. Then you can add
others into your life. First, you need to
find a job. Believe it or not, getting up
every morning and going off into the world
gives your life purpose. Don't go out
expecting some high paying job at first.
Take whatever you can find. You need to
get out among people and be social. Even
if its only at work. Trust me it will help.
Girlfriends come and go. I know, it hurts.
If she was the right one for you, she would
still be with you. She wasn't. You will find
another when you are ready. It seems like
it, I know, but it is not the end of the
world. You will find a special girl. When
you do you want to have a job and be able
to afford to take her on a date.
If you want to seek further counseling it
can't hurt. You have to be ready to accept
the help if it is going to do any good. Take
it seriously. You are important and you need
help. Accept the help.
The most important advice I can give you
though is to get out there and do something.
Anything. Sitting around and brooding about
things only makes them seem worse. It takes
control of you and keeps you in depression.
I hope to hear soon that you are feeling
better about yourself. You can do it. You
don't have to feel bad. Get some help, and
more importantly, take that help and use it.
Good luck. :)

hi! this was my question:
http://www.advicenators.com/qview.php?q=528565
and you answered:
younggrandma answered Friday January 25 2008, 10:54 pm:
If you have a true sinus infection they will
prescribe you amoxicillan or other antibiotic.
You cannot take it for everyday sinus problems.
If you do it will become ineffective or you can
build an immunity to it and become allergic to
it. You don't want to become allergic because
the substitutes are much more expensive.
I hate chronic sinus infections for years.
I was given amoxicillan over and over by
my doctor in an attempt to take care of it.
I eventually got hives when I took it. Yikes.
Surgery took care of my problem.
Sorry for the story, just don't take it
if you are just getting a sinus headache
or something. Sinus excedrin will do you
much more good. Save the antibiotics for
real problems. It has been over prescribed
in the past and now people are having real problems. :)
thank you so much! no the story was very informative :) how would i know if i have everyday sinus infections? also what exactly are sinus problems? i have headaches all the time and horrible allergies. i kind of dont take meds but i sometimes take singular now. doesnt seem to be working. zyrtec worked but i think it also contributed to my insomnia in a way and gave me extreme dry mouth. what kind of surgery did you get? what do they remove? haha so many questions. i really appreciate it!
you broke out in hives? is like random rashes on your body? bc i have random, dry, red spots everywhere on my arm :`(. its quite ugly. random patches more like. spots here and there. (link)
|
Everyday sinus headaches usually go away or
ease up if you take something for them. I know
sometimes I would just wake up with one that
would go away after I was up for awhile. Other
times someone would wear a really strong perfume
or aftershave and give me a headache. I would
also get a headache just walking into the soap
aisle of the grocery store!
A sinus infection usually gives you a, for
lack of a better term, a face ache. Your
cheeks really hurt and no matter what it
just doesn't go away. Then you need to see
a doctor. Infections in your face are nothing
to mess with.
If you have allergies you may be having
headaches because of that too. They can
give you something to take daily for that.
If zyrtec didn't work they can try you on
something else. Clariton works pretty good.
I tried zyrtec and had the same problem.
It would keep me awake. The doctor said she
never heard of that it makes most people
sleepy. Not I! Not you either it sounds like. :)
The surgery I had was to see if I had
a blockage that was causing my sinus
infections. I'm not sure what it was
called but your doctor would know. Come
to find out I had at some time, probably
as a toddler, the doctor said, hit my nose
and had something in there shoved where
it shouldn't be. It was removed and my
sinuses opened a little and I have to say
a headache for me is rare these days.
So, if you find you have an infection,
and they keep coming back after taking
antibiotics, I highly recommend it. I
had a headache everyday for many years.
I know it is no fun at all!
Something else that may sound silly is
a thing I saw on oprah. The lady that
tried it said it worked wonders. I need
to find me one to try. It works great
for those with allergies. I will give
you the link so you can check it out.
Hope this is of help. Feel free to ask
if this created more questions. Heres the
link to Dr Oz. :)

I weigh 300 pounds and i want to now how much to run a day to loose 50 pounds as quikly as possible. (link)
|
At 300 lbs you need to start slowly. Start
out walking until you lose some of the weight,
its easier on your joints. If you start out
doing to much to soon its going to be to much
for you and you will end up giving up. That
won't help at all. Neither will a knee or
ankle injury.
Just walk as far as you think you are able.
Moving alone will burn calories. Gradually
walk longer and longer times as it gets
easier. It will!
You also need to eat healthier. Cut back on
snacks and high fat foods. Its never a bad
idea to get a check-up at your doctors before
starting any exercise program.
Good luck! :)

how do you know the difference between vaginal discharge and cum? (link)
|
Basically if you haven't showered since
you had sex its probably a mixture of both.
After you shower it would be mostly discharge. :)

i am askin advise for my friend she has been married for 4
yrs and she has always been nervous around her mother in
law.her mil is manipulating,controlling,negative,stubborn,nit
picky & more.her mil has an illness and she moved in so her
daughter in law could take care of her also because she
couldnt afford to live where she was and she didnt get along
with her neibors.her dil was nervous around her already, and
thought she would try to help her even though she would be
physically drained from anxiety being around her.she meant
well she hoped they would get closer,but her mil started
taking over.the mil trish has a detached bedroom but always
was in the house.the dil amy put a serveilance camera up so
she knew when she was inside her mil took the camera out and
she hasnt seen it for two yrs.the dil locked herself in her
room and parked at the end of the street so he mil trish
didnt know when she was home.trish the mil would talk to her
through the door mostly putting her down that she didnt have
a job or didnt clean the house much.she didnt have a job
because she had social anxiety and didnt clean the house
because she avoided her mil.dil tried to write notes saying
that she would like to plan a time to have the house to her
self so she could clean.but the mil just said the dil is just
trying to get her way.and that she shouldnt boss her
around.the mil is so nit picky she didnt want her to use the
wash mashine she said she didnt shake the pet hair & dirt off
the clothes and unbalanced the loads which she did shake them
and didnt unbalance hardly at all.her mil would get upset if
there were dishes left in the sink or kitchen.she treated her
son like royalty and said he worked to hard to do any inside
housework.he does have a physically demanding job but i dont
think there is anything wrong with him helping.she seems like
a stepford wife monster.she is always saying how everything
needs to be cleaned or done.the poor dil got a portable stove
and cooked in her room.she had a fridge in there but her mil
wanted it and she got it.so she eats things that have been
out for too long that its definitly questionable to eat.her
hubby has a temper and broke the door frame when he came to
the room because she would lock the door when he would go
out.so now she cant be home when her hubby isnt around
because her mil is coming in to bother her.so she has been
hiding out in a cold trailer at home.she is scared to turn
the heater on incase her mil hears it and scared to cook in
case she smells the food.she barely walks around in it
because it squeaks, so all she does is sleep covered up to
stay warm.she has no running water and is going to the
bathroom in bags and throws them away somewhere because her
mil goes through the trash to make sure no one threw
recycleables away or to snoop.she has admitted to snooping
through her paperwork to find out more about her since the
dil doesnt talk to her.she wants to get a job but has no
energy she is overweight and so stressed and has social
anxiety.i think she is used to sleeping and not moving so it
makes her tired easy.but she said she was like this since her
mil moved in.she did work before but she couldnt afford the
social anxiety meds and was laid off because her client had
to go to a covelecsent hospital.one time her mil figured out
the window didnt lock so she climed in her dil room because
she knew she was home and ignoring her.the mil got her bosses
phone number and called her and became friends with her and
told her that the dil was lazy and didnt do anything.and who
knows what else so she was fired for a week but her boss
realized she was a good worker and rehired her.the only
reason they have her there is because they are relying on her
rent because the dil lost her job,they have so much stress
and the mil comes in their room when they are gone and cleans
it and takes things out sometimes wont give it back,and she
wont listen to them.she is always right or justifies
everything like she has a right to do what she does.she one
time put her hands around her dil neck and said i could kill
you right now b**ch.the dils mom changed her number because
the mil was leaving rude messages.the dil and her hubby have
no money and are so stressed and have no energy to move
hardly they want to sell their house but need to piant and
clean it.they are relying on rent from the mil since dil lost
her job.so they plan on moving and getting away from the
mil.is there anything that can help now.what do u think of
all this.the dil wont stand up to the mil she had tried and
it doesnt help.and she is scared to get a job and even to see
a councelor.and she has no money.would a doctor see her once
or a few times and perscrbe her meds?she doesnt have a
regular doc.her crazy life would make a good book or
movie.and its all true. (link)
|
Any family doctor would possibly give her
something for anxiety. What she needs to do
is tell her husband she can't take it anymore.
Her mother in law is well enough to harass
her, she is capable of living in her own
place. If she truly isn't then she could go
to an assisted living facility and live.
Tell her to talk to her husband about this.
He needs to be the one to make this stop
somehow. It is his mother. Subjecting his
wife to her 24/7 isn't right. She needs to
find a job and get her out of her home
before this destroys her marriage.

so. question for the guys
does having sex make you feel closer to a girl?
like does it make your relationship stronger?
or weaker...
(link)
|
I'm not a guy, but have been around for
a while. :)
I think studies have shown that while
females tend to think of sex as an act
of love, males tend to see it as just sex.
Not that their aren't exceptions to that.
The majority of them won't feel closer or
feel that it strengthens the relationship.
Not in th long term anyway.

is there anywhere around chicago where they will pierce your bellybutton if you are under 18? because i'm almost 16 and when i turn 16 i can drive there and get it done.
k thanks (link)
|
There is nothing like an angry parent
storming into a place of business,
yelling about you scarring their baby
for life, to discourage piercing or
tattooing of Americas underage youth!
You have to be 18 or bring a parent
with you to get a piercing. Not many
legitimate businesses will risk a
possible lawsuit. :)

I was a super skinny kid cuase I used to be outside then I gained weight a couple of years ago and I have HORRIBLE strech marks.
any ideas on how to get rid of them?
lotions, creams, body washes?
thank you! (link)
|
Stretch marks will fade but the never go away.
The redness will fade away eventually making
them less noticeable. Cocoa butter lotion may
make them feel better and help the healing.
Stretch marks are just damaged skin. Like
scars. There is probably laser surgery that
would remove them but chances are you will
still get them elsewhere. Everyone has them,
so they are nothing to be embarrassed about.
Teens, both boys and girls, get them because
you are growing fast. Weight loss is not the
only cause. :)

Ok, someone please help me. I'm a 16 year old girl and am sexually active. I haven't gotten my period yet this month, and it's usually at the first of the month. Now it's the 21. i'm really concerned. i would really like to go get a pregnancy test, but i have no money, at all. are there any symtoms i can look for that might be a good indicator. Or really any sign on whether i should be scared. also i do have a habit of being late, but it's usually on a week or two. (link)
|
This site will give you all the symptoms to watch for. A missed period is the number one sign of pregnancy. Many teens can just miss one for other reasons too. Stress and excessive exercise
for examples can cause you to miss.
A pregnancy test or getting tested at a free clinic or local health department are options. There is a
potential father involved here too. Make him buy
you a test or drive you to a clinic. No reason for
you to be the only one worried or getting help. He
didn't take any responsibility by using protection,
he needs to be responsible now. :)

Okay, so what is the difference between a yeast infection and a urinary track infection? [NO LINKS!]
Because I can litterally [warning this is gross] pull a string of discharge from my "v" where the discharge comes out. It is gloppy, and gross,[comes out like whitish very light pale, but dries yellow] and this has been going on for a while. I am not sexually active, I never have been, I don't "fool around"...SO WHAT IS THIS? help me please, I don't know what to do, I haven't told my mom and I don't want to....and I just want to know what it is without going to see a gyno...thanks in advance.
(link)

Yeast infection...An infection mainly caused by fungi of the genus Candida.
urinary tract infection...
An infection of one or more structures in the urinary tract. Gramnegative bacteria cause most of these infections
Yeast infection in a fungal infection and you can get it almost anywhere. A UTI is bacterial and is
in the urinary tract.
It really doesn't matter the definition
of either. You have something going on
that you need to see a doctor about. The
longer you wait the worse it will get.
Left untreated it may affect your kidneys
among other things leaving you with
lifelong problems.
Say something to your mom & see a doctor.
EDIT>>>
I know it seems scary but you be fine. It
isn't unusual at all. Just don't let it go
out of fear to talk to mom about it. Some
antibiotics or something depending on the
problem and you will be good to go. :)

ok i am gay and well my manager is bi and he said that he liked me.. i really dont like him in a sexaul way but he also calls me and texts me "i miss you" and " i want you" he always makes me laugh, the biggest problem is that i can be a flirt.. besides stop being a flirt what should i do? (link)
|
Just tell him you like him only as a friend.
Nothing more. You know his actions could be
considered sexual harassment.
Its really never a good idea to get involved
with a superior at work. If things don't work
out your job is suddenly in jeopardy. Just
politely tell him that you'd really appreciate
it if it would stop the messages. It may
be taken the wrong way by other employees
and get you in trouble.

Hey. I quit my job in August. I never said why I quit, my mom called because she thought that she should talk to her idk why. She told my mom she'd rehire me because I was a good worker, I'd just have to call her when I'm ready. I don't know if I have the guts to call her. I mean what should I say? What if she ask me why I quit or something.?
Any help Thanks.. (link)
|
I don't know why you quit but your mom might.
If so, sounds like the employer was ok with it.
If its a job you want back then give her a call
and ask for a job. If she asks just say you left
for personal reasons. She doesn't need details. :)

My friends and I were having a discussion in my AP US Government class because our teacher was absent and we were bored. Anyway, one girl was telling me how, if you're not legally certified and you were to, for example, give someone CPR or the heimlich maneuver, even if you save their life, they can sue you...
She said once she was lifeguarding at a club and somehow a pingpong table fell over on a young girl and the parents wanted to sue for emotional damages or something like that. They club had to settle because their lawyer said the lawsuit could win. I just have 2 questions...
How is it legal that you could sue someone for saving your life just because they weren't certified to do so?
How is it moral to do that? Your life (or child's life) was SAVED, how are you going to morally justify suing someone... are you that cheap and can you possibly want money that much?
I suppose I might understand if someone performed one of those and the person died because (and it should be proved) it was done incorrectly... but come on.
How is this legal? I plan on asking my teacher next time I see him, but I was just curious as to what laws would justify this. (link)
|
Unless you are ...well let me put it like this
so its easier to explain.
I am an EMT I have training in CPR and
emergency medicine. If I stop and help in
an accident and do something wrong...I can
be sued. And since people are so sue happy
anymore, this is the reason more off duty
emergency workers, doctors and nurses do
not stop and lend a hand. Sad but true.
An average citizen who is not trained is
covered under the good Samaritan act mentioned.
You are stopping and helping the best you can.
You have no training so can't be expected
to know should you do something that ultimatley
causes more damage.

how will you know if you lose the baby? by the feeling or what? (link)

Heavy bleeding or lack of movement.
I don't mean like a period. I mean

right now I'm taking a depressing pill and also i don't know if I'm pregant since i got all the nauseating, from the depressing pill or pregant, shld i stopped taking pill or what? (link)
|
You need to call your doctor and ask this
question. Call whoever gave you the depression
medication. You are probably having side
effects.
DO NOT just stop taking your medication
without first talking to your doctor.
There are some that you have to taken off
of gradually.
