Cat Flea's
Posted Thursday August 20 2009, 1:56 pm
Okay so I have a kitten..we took her to a vet and, among other problems, she also has fleas. My questions are:
Are they dangerous to humans?
Is my kitten going to be okay? (We put this powder stuff taht kills fleas on her and all over the house..yet, she still scratches..)
What do flea bites look like?
And finally, I heard cat fleas don't like humans, so all they do is bite us and fall off because they don't like our blood. Is this true?
Thanks!

best kind of hair straightener
Posted Wednesday August 19 2009, 5:30 pm
my hair gets greasy quickly when I straighten my hair.
(Ex: straighten hair at 8pm, go to sleep, wake up at 6am, it's alright, but by 2pm it's greasy and messy)
I want to be able to use a straightener that doesnt make my hair as greasy or curl as easily. My hair is naturally wavy.
I was considering this: http://i.walmartimages.com/i/p/00/07/45/90/81/0007459081339_215X215.jpg
Remington's Wet 2 Straight. Any reviews?

Hepatitis Shot/Vaccine
Posted Wednesday August 19 2009, 4:18 pm
My fiance took a hepatitis shot today and I am not sure what is in it. Is it anything like the flu shot where they put the flu in you to keep you from getting it? How will this shot effect my body when we are ready to have children? Will it go into me or the children at all through his semen? No Oppinions please just facts and experience. I would love to hear from people who have taken the shot and how they feel about it and how it is working with them and their mate. Thank you.

Sex matures your body?
Posted Tuesday August 18 2009, 1:50 pm
I was a virgin until March of this year (I'm 17) and my boobs have always been the same size since I was about 15 and then suddenly within the past month and a half they grew almost a cup size, I had noticed it one day and mentioned it to my boyfriend (who also noticed) and he said it was probably from sex? And that sex matures your body..is this true? I didn't gain any weight so it wasn't that.

abnormal pap smear
Posted Tuesday August 18 2009, 12:49 pm
hey im 18/f and my dr. just called and said my pap smear came back abnormal. She said that she found cells that were abnormal i cant really remember what she called them. but she told me that they were the type of cells that are found when you cant have children.

But now im freaking out because i may not be able to have kids :( can somebody please help me. Like tell me if they know or they personally have had a doctor tell them that and everything was fine. Anything would be helpful! thanks very much

Is this lyme disease??
Posted Saturday August 15 2009, 10:14 pm
Ok well I've had this bizarre rash for a while. I'd say about a month. When I first got it it was all red and I thought it might be a spider bite because I live in the mountains. After that, it got all pale white in the center and the red ring remained. My friend told me that it looked like ringworm but I've been putting topical cream on it and it hasn't gone away yet. It's started to fade over the weeks and I thought that maybe it would go away completely.
Today I finally decided to find something that would work on this kind of bite but I was shocked to find that it could be potentially dangerous. The picture of my arm is recent, but the rash was a lot more red before. I live in an area with ticks and it is summer so I gue...

Which brand of bottled water tastes best?
Posted Friday August 14 2009, 5:48 pm
I'm trying to drink more water and I heard that some brands of water are much better than others. I know water is REALLY important to my body and I do want to take care of myself so I don't end up with nasty skin when I'm older. I know there is Dasani and Aquafina at WalMart. There was even something called a SmartWater that came in a really long bottle. The Fiji water (in a rectangular bottle) looks expensive but if it's the best then let me know and I will try it. That's really about all the brands I know about and I haven't really drank any of them either. What is the best tasting water available?

What is Osteoporosis?
Posted Friday August 14 2009, 5:40 pm
My mom said she went to her doctor and they were concerned about her possibly having osteoporosis because of her age and "other factors." Well, I'm not really sure what osteoporosis actually is and I want to tell my mom more about it, as I'm sure she has questions about it as well.
Isn't osteoporosis bone loss or something like that? Like I said, I'm not entirely sure, and these medical websites make things sound really complicated. Could someone just please explain to me what it is and if my mom should be really concerned about it?

asking for birth control
Posted Friday August 14 2009, 4:31 pm
I am a 17th year old female and I want to ask my dad for Birth control.
He has told me before that if I want it, don't hesitate to ask but when the time comes its going to be awkward and weird. So when should I bring it up and what should I say.
My dad is very understanding about everything, I just will feel awkward.
Thank you.

healthy hair
Posted Friday August 14 2009, 3:13 pm
hey im 18/f and my hair is very dry and frizzy from dying it and straightening it. I was wondering if anybody knew any products that have worked for you or someone you know. I've tried the hot oil treatments and those really never worked for me. I can't afford anything too expensive and if u can buy it at say walmart, target, shopko, etc that would be even better. any suggestions are appreciated!
thanks again

Severe abdominal and bum pain cant sit!
Posted Friday August 14 2009, 1:09 pm
Basically for the last few months, I have suffered this very sudden abdominal pain, that really strikes to the point where you immediately keel over, and it goes all the way to my bum, I struggle to sit and walk.
I find as gross as this sounds that it almost stops when I go to the toilet & release my bowels, but surely I should not be getting the pain that severe? I wasn't even desperate for the toilet, I almost had to force it to happen. My stomach now feels tender like Ive been stabbed and its healing. Its really painful and not sure what to do about it, Ive been on my period 2 days, but I dont find it happens just during this time, I find it happens other times too.
