medicine
Posted Thursday January 18 2007, 2:35 pm
I was wondering why you're not aloud to just take your medicine and that you always need to eat food before you take your medicine? Like if it's really serious, you don't have time to eat food, you gotta eat your medicine as soon as possible and hope it's working!

how severe is a cyst?
Posted Thursday January 18 2007, 2:08 pm
I am 16 years old female, and I wondering how severe is an ovarian cyst, and other information about it:
1)How severe is it or how severe can it possibly get (I heard it somewhat depends by age group)?
2)How do they detect it (A gyno), and how do they remove it?
3)Is the non-cancerous cysts potentially fatal or can cause illness?
4)What are the common symptoms of having one? How can you tell if you have it?
5)How long can you possibly go untreated?
I am asking these questions because I think I may have a cyst. I haven't had my period in nearly a year, so I am concerned, as well as my family and friends. I know it may be for other reasons but ever since I heard this may be the reason...

Physically healthy, yes. Mentally healthy, no?

15/f
Hi, I'm not trying to lose more than a pound or two, if anything. But I would like to study how many calories I'm taking in and how many I'm burning. I am considering getting a pedometre, scale and book to write down everything I eat. I realize it's probably good to see exactly what I'm eating and what not, but is it mentally healthy for a teenager to be so aware of their health? I am just over 5'8 and around 115 lbs, so I'm not having any issues.
Thanks!
PS: I have a lot of spare time and this interests me, haha.

Diva Cup
Posted Wednesday January 17 2007, 10:55 pm
Hi, 13 F.
Does anyone here use menstrual cups or the Diva Cup? I'm having some problems inserting it. Like I don't fully understand the internet instructions... like the angles and where exactly you put it in.
I use tampons so I know about relaxing your muscles and stuff. Help is needed quick.
Thanks.

Virgin with herpes
Posted Wednesday January 17 2007, 12:24 am
Hi, I'm a virgin(and I'm pretty sure about that) and I've never even kissed anyone before, recently I got a cold sore and I don't know where from. I researched what it was and it told me I had some kind of herpes infection- how did i get it then? Also I recently found out that I had little bumps around the head of my penis, and it looks somewhat similar to a picture of someone who has genital herpes. This is really wierd for me, and I don't know if it is what it is and I'm really embarrased. Please help. Thank you.

Need to see a dermatologist, but away at college
Posted Tuesday January 16 2007, 9:26 pm
I recently came across your advice columns, and within a few minutes, they already started uplifting me!
I have butt acne. I haven't had anything even like this before, it just started a year ago. I rarely even get a pimple on my face! (Lucky me, right?) I know I should probably see a dermatologist about this, but I can't afford one on my college student budget. I've approached my parents about seeing a doctor or a dentist on past occasions, and they blow me off entirely because they don't think it's worth spending the money if it's not life threatening, like when I wanted birth control, or when my throat was extremely sore, or when I noticed my wisdom teeth were growing in. If I tell them I have body acne, they're ju...

Jaw
Posted Monday January 15 2007, 11:28 pm
Okay I wasn't sure what catagory so I hope this one is okay. Okay so I'm 15 female and got braces when I was 13 and wore Rubber bands to help move my front teeth back, during that time I began to have troubles with my jaw, but didn't really notice too much. Now i'm 15 and have had my braces off for 5 months and now everytime I open my mouth to eat or yawn I here a snap and it hurts. But it isn't every day. But somedays it just hurts when I'm not even doing anything. So I was wondering is this something to worry about or just keep living with until it gets worse and also should I tell my dentist or my regual doctor?? Thanks so much!

Red Cheeks
Posted Monday January 15 2007, 6:25 pm
Okay firstly, sorry about category.
So.. i don't know if anything can be done about this or not but..
My cheeks go BRIGHT red in the cold.. and people make fun of me, i know people say red cheeks are healthy but i hate them!
I usually have a scarf with me and have that around my face to try and stop them going red but it doesn't seem to help. When they go red i look really awful, like a tomatoe and i get really embarassed to show my face.
Can anything be done to prevent this in any way?
PLEASE IM DESPERATE! xx

EAR PIERCING
Posted Monday January 15 2007, 3:39 pm
I pierced the carteliage in my ear like the top part 2 days ago. It's fine but I have basketball games so I'm going to have to take it out. If I take it out right before the game and put it back in afterwards will it close up?? I've already taken it out 2 times to clean it and it didn't close up any.
