Do you usually use Maxi Pads or Tampons? And do you know any kinds that work good? (link)
|
I use tampons mostly.
tampax sport is my favorite...if you can have a favorite tampon? haha.
and sometimes your vajayjay just needs a break so sometimes i wear pads for when i go to bed.
hope that wasnt TMI!

Is there any way to make your period come sooner? I have a very very very irregular period so I now have birth control to regulate it, only I cant start it until the sunday after my first period and that could be up to 2 months from now..I get my period once about every two and a half months, very rarely is it a month after the last, and I hate waiting and getting it when I least expect it...So is there any way that I can make it come sooner? (link)
|
i have the same exact problem. and it comes when it comes. so you just have to wait for it.
hope the bc helps out, it helps me a lot :)
|
is bad breath contagious? (link)
|
nope.....
|
This is my second time getting my period and the first time i wore a pad to gymnastics and it was uncomfortable, and this time im going to wear a tampon should i wear my underwear underneath the leotard just in case or do u think i'll be safe (link)
|
just put a pantyliner on your leotard, just for a back up when wearing a tampon :)
and also if you are super heavy, take ibuprofen (about 800 mg)and it thins your blood so your flow is not so heavy! and it also helps with cramps!
hope i helped!

18-female.
soo today i noticed these marks on like the side of my hip/thigh and i asked my mom what they were and she said stretch marks!! i couldnt believe it!! i dont understand, i'm only 115 pounds 5'5 tall and i've always been that skinny. how could i have stretch marks? i'm freaking out! (link)
|
its okay :) pretty much everyone has them. its just from growing to fast for your skin. it doesn't mean your fat. just don't point them out and nobody will notice them. coco butter is also supposed to help make them go away.
hope i helped :)

i have a yeast infection :S
the problem is that i dont react very well to medical treatments lOl
I heard that you can get rid of it by dipping a tampon into plain yogourt and inserting it.
i wanna try that, but how long should i leave it in?? (link)

this looks helpful....

hi! 18/f
lately i've been having some yellow-ish discharge. now i just started taking a new birth control this month and i'm suppose to get my period next week but i'm not sure if the yellow-ish color is normal? its not always yellow, sometimes it'll be clear but i'm just worried now i have some kind of infection or something down there. should i get it checked out or am i okay? and if i did get it checked out to see if i had an infection how exactly do they check? do they have to stick something up there or do you have to pee haha sorry i just think it may be awkward going to the doctor to see if i have an infection down there. by the way i'm still a virgin and not sexually active. well thanks! (link)
|
jsut tell your mom.
or you are 18 so you can go on your own the gyno.
it might be the birth control or it might be an infection. but i'd go get it checked out just incase because if its an infection you want to catch it early. and you can get infections from a lot of things other than having sex like working out a lot and not showering very well afterward and other things like that.

my whole life, i have NEVER ever been happy with how I look. Ive always been a bit over weight, not extremely, but a little. I'm like 5'5 and probably like 170lbs...i would really like to look alot better. I got distracted during the summer and screwed my diet. But everytime I start a diet and keep with it, it always dies, and I always get depressed about it, because I was doing great, but i just didnt want to keep up with it because i was too lazy, or distracted, or busy. And I'm really jealous, I can't really get guys, I talk way too much, but like every guy is only into "skinny" girls. I would really like to like my body and for who i am. And i used to do swim team, because its good for my health, but to be honest, ive been doing it for over 6 years in the summer and winter, and quite frankly, im getting tired of it. So I need exercises that I can do everynight that will help me lose weight effectively =] i'm trying to lose my belly more than anything though, and my waist, and my thighs lol. I'm busy with other activities during the week too, so I dont want a HUGE workout everynight, I'm willing to workout an hour a night..is tht good enough? And of course im gonna diet with the food and everything...I just dont want to let myself again, for the gizillianth time...15/f/usa (link)

Okay, so, I am a fourteen year old female and has really never had bad acne besides a few white heads everyone once in awhile. Anyways, I have had random break outs and I'm guessing it's stress. But I've been getting huge [single] white heads in/under my nose. They are really sensitive and I'm not sure how to get rid of them. Help? Thanks. (link)
|
pro active is AMAZING.
and i'v tried the knock offs like acne free and they are crap. don't waste your money.

Hey, I have a tanning question...
Well I am absolutely in LOVE with self-tanners because I love seeing results quickly which is rare for my skin type. I also tan quite a bit in the summer (Don't worry, I practice safe sun :]). But my question is, If you already have a self tanner on, can you lay out and still get a tan? Or is it not possible for the UV rays to go through the dye?
**If you know the answer to this, great :] please let me know!
**If you want to critize me for tanning and give me a speech about how I'll get skin cancer blahblahblah... keep it to yourself, I don't care, that's not why I asked this question :]
Thanks Guys!! (link)
|
the UV rays penetrate deep into your skin. esp UVA rays which cause premature aging. and UVB rays are what make you tan. but you can definetly get tanner if you are wearing self tanner!

i have my belly button pierced now for about a month and ive had it pierced once before too(i took it out cause the skin kept getting smaller and smaller that the ring was going to fall out) so now i have it pierced again and it was perfect. now the skin is doing the same thing and getting thinner again. will it keep getting thinner or will it eventually get thick again? what could i do to make it stop thinning (link)
|
it kind of sounds like your body is rejecting the peircing.
i have mine pierced and it hasn't done that.
i would go to the place you got it done at and ask them about it since i'm sure they have had a lot of experience!
|
well my thighs aren't big, but i'd like them thinner. i was wondering if i was to work them out if the fat would just turn into muscle and they would only get tighter not thinner. can anyone help me out? (link)
|
running helps.
and lunges.
and squats.
=] hope that helped

i decided to stop smoking cigarettes -after 3 failed attempts-on friday. Its sunday today and ive started revising for exams. The thing is..i need a cig', and i dont want the feeling of needing one to put me off the work i have. So what do you lot think i should do? carry on smoking till june/july when the exams are completely finished, or stop smoking and let it affect my exams and revision, because the exams start in march.... (link)

are you quitting cold turkey?
there are other ways to quit, my step dad is in the process of quitting and he uses the nicotine gum and so far ( a couple of months now) its going really good for him. its hard for everyone. don't give in to the cravings. they will just make you weaker. and also my uncle has decided to quit (also a couple a months ago) and takes pills to block the nicotine so every time he smokes it won't affect him and it eventually makes you wanna give up on smoking because you aren't getting the buzz/satisfaction. it made him really moody, though.
i'd recomend the nicotine gum since it gives you something to do with your mouth to keep you busy. and it costs about as much as cigarettes. but i understand if you are unable to do either one of those choices financially.
i am glad you are quitting smoking though, great choice =]
but you should just stop smoking now, the more you smoke the harder it will be to quit when that time comes.
hope i helped & good luck.

i've been bulimic for a year. i think it's really messing with me. there was a period of time a few weeks ago when i stopped for like a week and a half. no joke i felt like a different person. i had energy and was less blah and seemed happier but then i i got back to my normal bulimic self after that week because i wasn't so busy. thats the only time i ever actually stopped. in a weird way i missed it, even though it was only a week. like it's normal for me i don't eat breakfast, lunch, and when i eat i throw some if not all up. i don't know how to stop or even if i want to. i can't eat in front of some people either..i can't help but feel bad when i eat or think that people are thinking i'm fat when i eat. i'm 5'6 and 122 pounds. my goal is 110. kay so should i get help even if i don't want it? what are the pros and cons? what exactly can docters or whatever do to treat it? i don't know what to do, the bulimia has become a part of me, only one person has found out and i didn't tell them. nothing bad has come from being this way except my mind was less cloudy and i have less energy. please give me some advice on anything :]
thank you (link)

I get those white spots on my chin and weird places like on the end of my eyebrow closest to my nose... They're like acne spots underneath the skin, like it's a big bump that's not red or anything, but deep and crazy. I have one now one the side of my chin. Is there a natural way I can get rid of these bumps really fast, like in a day or so? (link)

use a deep cleansing face mask.
i recommend pro active. the refining face mask is the bestttttt! it makes your skin so soft.
i would die without it.
