my vagina smells bad. its not like a fish smell but its bad & not normal. i do clean with antibacterial soap but its not working. what should i do ? (link)
you may have a yeast infection nothing to worry about just go to your family doctor or health clinic and they will give you a medication to clear it up. don't use over the counter meds without consulting a doctor first!!!


what are the sex positions? (link)
there are really too many to mention. there are alot of books out though that you can read and look through to give you every idea imaginable.


when my boyfriend and I are doing the deed, he ejactulates after like 1 minute! sometimes like 30 seconds... how could he last longer? (link)
have him play with you more so that you get your pleasure and so does he. just because he can only last a few minutes doesn't mean you have to suffer. foreplay and playing in general is fun and satisfying


how do you sit on a guys lap? without hurting them or making it awkward or anything? thnx! (link)
just sit down if it hurts he will tell you. no really sitting sideways on his lap is usually the best bet!!!


Hey! I'm very worried here! Me and my boyfriend were making out on top of each other, i had pants on, he had pants on but neither of us had our shirts on. We were making out and when we finished, I saw a little stain on his pants, now I'm scared that I might be pregnant.
Ive been waitin for my period and stressing a lot!

I waited for my period to come and it finally came, but it was light and it only lasted 2 days, also i didnt have any cramps or anything.
Could this be implantation bleeding?
Could I be pregnant? (link)
honey you can't get pregnant without actual intercourse!!!! he actually have had to ejaculated inside of you to make that happen. you stressing over not getting your period is what is causing you not to have one. stress will cause you to be late or not have one at all. calm down and breathe!!! things will work out and you will start your cycle again!!!


I like this 1 boy in on of my classes at school and i want to try and be freinds with him so that we can talk and get to nkoweach other more! does anyone know how to do that???? please help! thanks (link)
just talk to him honey!! if he wants to be your friend he will talk back and continue to talk to you. if not don't worry about it-- there are alot of other guys out there and you are way to young to get caught up with just one!!!!


ive liked sean for ever and he was really really nice like wicked cool and like i mean i think he did like me. his family like cousins and brother are like assholes, like obnoxious and mean. so my sister was like dont bother his family are assholes. sean was such a sweetie last year and most of this year but now hes turning to be a asshole like his brother, i like him so much but i do nott want to. and he knows im like obsessed and basically makes me more. what can i do to make him think i dontt? hes in my gym class always like being weird or acting nice.. thankss! so basically what should i do around him and how can i get over him

=( (link)
be yourself everything heals in time. it couldn't hurt to be friends with him just because his family are jerks could it?


well. i just turned 13. Like, 2 days ago. Ive been getting that white stuff in my underware for a while now. I would say like 4 months. I dont have alot of pubic hair. Can you get your period with out having pubic hair? Does it come after you get it ? Or do you have to have it before? Also, am i close to having my period? Im not sure. And im worried i might get it in the middle of school or something. Okay, one last question. If you get it during school, is it definately going to leak through? Or is there a chance it might not. Thanks so much if you can help me !!! (link)
calm down. first of all if you have a white discharge you might want to tell your mom and go to the doctor b/c it might be a yeast infection is there any odor? no you don't have to have hair to get your period it happens when it happens. the school nurse or office personell will usually let you go home to change clothes or something. yes it will probably be embarrassing but that's life and it happens to everyone.Don't worry and talk to your mom about your concerns.


I want to get my belly button pierced yet I do not know where to go. Also I am 14 is that a problem? Does the piercing work like when you get your ears pierced, you can just slide the ring in and out? Do they pierce your navel like they pierce your ears, if not then how? Thanks! (link)
first of all most places require that you are at least 18 some 16 with parental consent. your naval is pierced with a needle instead of a gun. yes after enough healing time you can slide it in and out pretty easy. the weight gain issue isn't a problem medically it's a person preference.


ok, so 1st, i'm 18, my gf is 17. To be blunt, her mom is very imbalanced. she's like cinderalla's stepmother. , doing all these things. She constantly battering, yelling, and swearing at her. totally at random. and she's always making her do too much stuff. because of her, my gf is working 2 jobs, and she wants her to get more. On top of a really hard school load (4 AP classes), she always has a list of chores to do. Like to perfection, her mom will make her scrub the bathroom fro hours till its "right". She even kept her home from school so that she'd do more chores.

The thing is, i really, really care about her. I mean, its not healthy to be facing this all the time. It really is verabl and mental abuse. How can i get her to get help (or get help for her)?
I don't want it to seem that as a bf, i'm trying to drive her away from her mom, but she really needs help. i feel stuck. what can i do? (link)
if her mom is really abusing her mentally or verbally which that's the way you make it sound you can annonomously report her to authorities. your gf is still a minor and that's not right. your gf could also talk to a legal office about being amancipated ( divorced from her parents) so that she could be out on her own. talk to your gf and see what road she would like to go down. sometimes good old fashioned therapy can do the trick.


i am 17 years old and i am a women. i hae this guy friend who has tryed to get me to have sex with him. but everytime we wore going to i told him a started my period and i need to get home to change my clothes. but i really want to have sex but i am scared that i will get pregant. since i am not on birth control. so what should i do (link)
make him use a condom ( if you really want to take that step) don't rush anything. there are lots of over the counter things to use. or you can visit your local health clinic or planned parenthood chapter. no matter what you use still make him use a condom!!!!


alright, firs tof all im prude lol
alright then, well i dont really know what this is, its just a "problem" im having..... All the guys in my school are like obsessed with gurls and getting sex and smokin weed and shit and im not in to that. I am into true love shit and i dont drink or smoke.

there is nothing wrong with you!!!! in fact i commend you in your attitude. there aren't many of your type left. keep up the good work


There is this girl that i realy like. I got her phone number. I am going to call her and ask her out to the movies or somthing.

What should i say to her when i call her? My mind is blank of all ideas right now. I want to let her know her how i feel without being too deep and emotional. Also, is there any way i can ask her out besides saying "Hey, wanna go out?" I am 13 and she is almost 14.

Thanks for your help. (link)
Simply ask if she's doing any thing for the weekend and see if she wants to go do something with you. straight and to the point couldn't hurt


Im 13, And Im female. I just kinda have a odd questions. You know how people say (While i heard it on tv once, & once on here..) When boys at school when they get hard, they try to stop it and cover it with the books in front of it..
Will honestly, do they REALLY DO THAT?
& doesnt it hurt, trying to make it not so noticeable...
I mean im a girl, and i just see it as pain, or something. hah.. Thanks i rate high. (link)
there's really no reason to be rude. you are only 13 and have alot to learn about life sweetie!


what does "pop your cherry mean"???? (link)
plain and simply it means losing your virginity.


sorry it's kinda long but I wanna know...

ok well it's be about 8 months since I've gotten my period and for the first 4 months is was coming aroud the 20th and then it didn't and it came aroud the 13th and then for about 3 more months it was around the 13th well in Januaray is come on the 13th and now it's the 17th and I don't get why it hasn't come and I'm like scared that I'm messed up or not normal considering this is the 2nd time this has happend. Can someone please tell me what's happening if it's normal or not. Thanks, will rate too. (link)
everyones cycle is different your body might just be settling in or trying to cope with stress. why not try and see a healthcare professional and maybe they can suggest some medical ways to deal with the situation. sometimes a doctor will put you on the pill to regulate your periods.


i've had a best friends named jill since i was four (13 now)and she is now 15 (2 years apart) and since i was 11 shes been changing! shes a diff. now and she acts diff.(she makes me wanna roll my eyes,which i never do!,only when im really upset) on the computer.but when im with her shes the same as shes always been and hasnt changed at all!when im with her and her friends she acts diff from both of the two! ugh i just hate how she got into saying "do these match?" and "im LIKE still here" she was never like that :(.i still wanna be her friend but how can i deal with the change? (link)
this is normal honey. as people get older they change. sometimes old friends can still be as close as they were always and sometimes you grow apart. just go with the flow for a little while and if it gets too unbearable talk to her about what she wants out of life and what you want. maybe then you can meet on common ground again.


well i know the siptums of gonneriea( sorry if i spelt it rong) and its burned like 3 times while i was going to the bathroom. and my urine smells really strong. could this be gonneria? i know this question sounds nasty but im really scared.

i rate 5's

SCARED. (link)
go to your local health clinic and get checked out std's are nothing to mess with


i am a 15/f and last summer i was raped, but the thing was i was high so i cant tell my parents or anything, but i am now clean and everything, but i have really bad flashbacks of that time, like they are so vivid and i can feel it happening and i say stuff outloud like "stop" and sutff....now i told my boyfriend and he was really upset, and i dont know how to get rid of these flashbacks without telling ne one, i mean i have a councelor but i just couldnt tell her, does anyone know what i can do? (link)
Sweetie you need to talk to your parents!! We all make mistakes in our lives that's nothing new, but you need to get some help to get you through this before it's to late!!! Your parents will understand it may be difficult at first but they will come around. No parent wants their child to suffer whether they are 2 or 202!!! Good luck


Every since i was old enough to have a crush, i have liked this guy, but he also happens to be my best friend. He knows that i like him and he likes me too and says that im cute, but how do i know what to do. Should I ask him out or is it better that we stay friends?? im soo lost. I dont want to mess up our friendship, and i dont want to hurt myself. Help me please!!! By the way im 13/f (link)
Talk talk talk. try having a conversation with this guy if he is your friend he shouldn't mind discussing this with you. see where he stands on the matter and see if you can both come up with a mutual solution.
