I have been bleeding from my anus for a long time. Recently it has become a lot of blood when I poop, mixed in the poop and a lot a lot on the out side. Like it looks like a females menstrual cycle that's how much it is. I'm actually getting scared. (link)
Time to go to the doctor.

There is nothing anyone here can do for you over the Internet except give you the following advice:

Any time you bleed from someplace you aren't supposed to, you go to the doctor and find out why.

Don't put it off any longer. Go today.


Do I need to seek e/r treatment if the only substance I am pooping is blood? What might this be a sign of? Accompanied by mild stomach cramping. Has happened about 8 times within 24 hrs. (link)
Nobody here is able to offer you a diagnosis, but it is safe to say you should seek medical attention.

If you have a regular doctor, call them. If not, call the ER and tell them what is happening.

Your description makes it sound like a great deal of blood, and that is always something to take care of right away.

Let me ask you this: If the same amount of blood came out of your ear, eye socket, mouth, or any other orifice, would you already have called 911? I know I would have.

Please seek treatment right away.


Okay so i already posted a question titled: "Did i make a mistake having sex with my boyfriend?" you can read that if you want to. Now. i realize the answer in my head was yes. We did use a condom but i was late by about 2 weeks so i took a pregnancy test, it was positive. I then told my boyfriend and he took me to the doctor, they confimred the pregnancy. He is being supportive, and says whatever decision i make, he will stand behind. I am happy he is being so nice, but i know he wants me to get an abortion. I am not basing my decision off his, but it will play into effective. I have not told anyone besides my boyfriend, I am frankly too scared to tell my parents, and i feel like other than them, i have no authority figuree to seek advice from. I fell scared and alone, I dont know wha to do. I am leaning away from abortion due to my religion, but it is still an option should it come to that. I don't know what to do, and would really love some input. (link)
Hi there,

You are very fortunate that, if you had to make a mistake like this, you did it with someone who isn't pressuring you into doing something you don't want to. Still, I am sorry you are having to make this choice in life.

I understand that you are scare to tell your parents, but that really is your best next step. Why? Well, no matter what you decide to do, the next step is going to be something you may want them involved in.

If you have an abortion, it isn't like they aren't going to know. You may not tell them, but if you take the time the read the hundreds of questions on this site from people who have had abortions and never been the same, the one recurring theme amongst them is that everybody they knows tells them they have changed, are depressed, etc... then they are left lying to everyone about why they are depressed.

So, best to assume that your parents will find out.

Unless you are planning not to have sex again, you may want your parents to help you arrange birth control, so you aren't in this spot again.

Now, if you have the baby... I don't mean to be funny, but your parents are eventually going to notice you getting a bit more pregnant as time goes by. :-)

I think everyone has done something they were afraid to tell their parents about. Everyone. I know I have, and some real winners too!

I look back on some of the stuff now, and the ONE thing that they all have in common is this:

My parents never, not one time... EVER... reacted as badly as I thought they would.

The key to this is that your parents love you, and want the best for you. Sure, there is going to be a moment of shock, and you can understand this, right? If it was your daughter, you would be a tad bit surprised, wouldn't you? After the initial shock wears off, you will find that they still love you, and only want to help.

The worst thing I ever did when I was in trouble, was delay telling my parents.

The ONE thing you do NOT want to happen in all this is for your parents to find out from someone else, and they will eventually as these things never stay secret... because if you don't tell them, they will never trust you again. They will always, from that point forward, think you are hiding things.

You will turn your parents from your best support system into your biggest doubters. Please don't make that mistake.

You said yourself that you have nobody else to talk to about this, and you already know that you desperately need someone to talk about this with in person.

You didn't mention it, so I thought I would: You only listed two options... but there is also adoption, if you decide you can't keep the baby. I have friends that had to wait 12 years to adopt, so it isn't like nobody wants another baby.

Don't get me wrong, if you have loving parents, a supportive partner and a good attitude towards the world, which all seems true with you, then you can raise a child and have a good outcome. Many people manage with worse situations.

Example: One of the best people I ever worked with was born to a single mother (14 years old), who was the daughter of a single mother who gave birth at 13. He grew up in the projects, and, according to everyone's expectations had NO chance in life but drugs, gangs, prison and death.

He joined the military, learned electronics got a job with me when he got out and now has a wife and kids of his own.

Is it a great deal of work to raise a child? Sure is.

Is it worth it? Ask your parents. :-)

Whatever decision you make, I wish you only the best.


I have just been feeling depressed for a while now. I have no friends,just only the co-workers I work with. I really don't talk to my family like that anymore. I just go thru the same routine everyday. I feel like no one is there for me. I have struggle to keep myself together for the last past three years. I graduated High School about 3 years ago. I lost all my best friends. Arguements,lies happen after high school. So, No more friends. I don't want to go to school or work. No one ever texts or calls me unless it's family members wanting someone or asking something. I just don't know what to do. I never make plans because i'm always alone. I never been on a date. I'm have been single my whole life. I'm only 21 years old. I'm gay. I gotten sick with the shingles about 6 months ago. Because of stress and it was really bad. Cause of work,ex-friends,lonely,didn't feel like i belong,hiding about beening gay(which i am still). I need someone to talk to. I hate this feeling. I sit at home or ride around before i go home everyday or go to the park and just think and cry all the time. I dreamed about me dying in a car accident all the time and wondering what would my family do with out me. I just don't know who i am anymore. I need answers and help.It's not the world's business to know what i'm going thru and to know that i'm gay. Not,my families either because i will get disown.:/ My family is so christian. Now, It hurts. Having to lie to them about everything and can't be my own self. Advice please?

Hi there,

This has already been asked, and answered here:

http://www.advicenators.com/qview.php?q=608922



is it safe to double up on birth control pills to
stop continuous bleeding? (link)
Absolutely not, unless specifically instructed to by your doctor. Please refer to the insert that came with your pills. The side effects are horrible enough without doubling the dose: Heart attack, cancer, blood clots, etc...

If you are having continuous bleeding, something else is going on and your doctor needs to know about this right away.


hi there ,
are you the creator of this website ?
i really want to do the thing where you give suggestions but i dont have enough rates ! should i just give more advice ? (link)
What do you mean by "the thing where you give suggestions" exactly?

Thanks,

DN.


I found out they were different girls (WTF). But I cant get her to like me. What should I do? Her name is Mira. Im a boy at age 13. (link)
Nobody but the admins can see your previous questions.

Please re-ask this and include all details needed to answer it.

Thanks.


withs of a girls 3hols can her waster pregrent (link)
Please re-write this question. It is too hard to understand right now.

Thank you.


Can you get gonorrhea or chlamydia even if you are a virgin
(link)
I suppose you would have to state if you mean an actual virgin, or just someone who still has her hymen.

If you have had NO sexual contact of any kind with anyone, ever... then it is unlikely. Recently a girl here reported getting one of these by being fingered, which makes total sense if you think about it.

So, if you are a real virgin, as in untouched sexually by anyone, in any way, ever... then it is unlikely. If, however, you are having symptoms that are making you think you might, then you should see your doctor right away.

When in doubt... test, find out. :-)


okay soo i recently started using this ...i wish people would rate my advice or else i feel like its useless ! is my advice bad or wat lol ?
just wondering ! (link)
I'll answer this because only the admins can see who asked a question, and, as such, tell which advice column is yours.

I didn't spend much time, but I did look at the first page of your column. Here are my suggestions:

Stop using chat speak. It makes you look less intelligent, and nobody is going to take you seriously. Example from this question: If you went to a counselor and in her advice to you, she wrote: "wat lol" ... would you take her seriously? Of course not.

Use punctuation a bit better.

Capital letters are your friends.

If you are tempted to write a one line answer to a 20 line question: Don't. If a couple words is the best you can manage, then you aren't qualified to answer. (There are exceptions to this, but they are rarer than you would think.)

A spell checker. If your browser doesn't have one, please install the Google toolbar, which has a decent spell checker.

I hope you will work towards having answers you can be proud of, and soon you won't have to worry about people never rating you.

All that said... if you are only doing this for ratings, and not to help people, then you have misunderstood the reason this site exists. Not saying that is what you meant, but just in case, I thought I would put that out there. ;-)

Take care.


I have xp on a 20 gig hdd. Wanted to clone it to an 80. put the 80 in and formatted it to ntfs, tried clonezilla to no avail. then tried EasUD TODO and it worked amazing to the clone (cloned it). When i cloned, i dragged the partition line from 20 to 80 gig, and did not check for it to make a sector exact clone.

After the clone, i checked both drives. they were an exact match. So I unplugged the computer obviously, and removed to 20 gig, changed the 80 gig from slave to master, and re attached all the wires. at startup, it see the 80 gig, but wont boot from it.

I thought I just turned it on and i was good to go. what did i do wrong? how do i fix it?

Only you can solve this! (link)
Hey there,

You have the phone number here, just pick up the phone and I will walk you through this.

I would call now but don't know if you are keeping late hours.

Talk with you soon.


When fucking to get by, why is everyone running their mouths?? we're all doing IT till it feels "right" till the end.. how do you avoid the gossip? (link)
Please rephrase your question. This is very confusing.

Thanks.

Hi there,


You already asked this here:

... and it has been answered.


Okie dokie so I have been having like allergic reactions to these pads I am on when I have my period. Im 13/f btw. But after Im off my period, and off the pads the rash goes away. What it is is a red sore skin that has small bumps and it is external. I have used this cream called cortizone but I am out of it now and Im off the pad so I have been hoping it will heal itself. On friday night, no one was home except me so I locked myself in the bathroom and took a good look at this sore redness. It has small bumps under the skin as I mentioned and I took my nail and started kind of scratching it to see if anything would come out. It was like a white powder that came out under my nail. It was sort of interesting. I tried researching it and putting as much info I knew into this one website that is specifically for butt rashes but no one knew of this sort of thing. I have told my mom before and do not give me the advice to visit a doctor because I can not. Im having difficult family issues. I reccently became a vegetarian 2 months ago (thought I would say that incase it might have something to do with it but I doubt it). I know no one on this website is an expert or a doctor but just tell me what to do please.
This rash type thing has been here for a month and a half. TOday, I went to see if it had gone down yet but it has not and infact when I looked at it, I felt the red spots and it was covered by a clear gross solid thing. It was like dried up skin so I decided stupidly to scratch the hard parts off. (btw I have also not had my period since I have gotten this stupid rash redness but my period has always been irregular). What should I do about this? Is there an at home solution? I am not visiting a doctor like a said earlier. Please help me! (link)
You really should visit a doctor, embarrassed or not, in case it is something serious.

Having said that, I know someone who is allergic to the bleach they use to bleach the cotton in the pads. She switched to bleach-free, natural style pads, which she bought from vitacost.com, and the problem went away, never to return.

Turns out, this is a very common problem.

Worth a shot.

so if it does bleed its offically gone? (link)
If you do anything that could give you a disease, it is officially gone. So, any sexual contact at all, basically, and it is over.

Virginity is about being free of physical and emotional baggage, not a flap of skin.

Think about this for a sec... if virginity were about a flap of skin that only exists in the vagina... how could a guy be a virgin?

Makes sense, doesn't it?


I have had a headache for over 2 weeks now. It is worse in the afternoon and it does not go away after taking panadol of any sought (nuerofin, aspirin etc.) I am unsure of what it could be and what I need to do. the symptoms I have are: - dizziness, -headaches, - losing feeling in my legs (causes me to stumble) - blurred vision.

(link)
Pick up the phone right now and call 911.

Describe the symptoms you listed here, and see what they have to say about it.

You have ignored this far too long. There are no doctors on this site, so this isn't medical advice, but what you are describing is every single symptom that has been running on a local public service announcement to make people aware of heart attack and stroke warning signs.

Please don't mess around. Pick up the phone.

Now.

P.S. This advice is coming from the person who owns this website.


im supposed to be an interviwer making questions to the character reeve shield in face on the milk carton. its like a Q and A. (link)
Please re-ask this question and take the time to re-phrase it.

I have no idea what a "reeve shield" is.

Thank you.
