Womens Health Questions and Answers


I'm worried nearly my interval...?

I am 12, haven't had a extent since January 14, which was my hugely first one. It was completely mundane, and lasted for a week. I don't stress more or less school that much, my diet hasn't changed, and i hold no health problems(diabetes, ect.). I hold read other posts on the web more or less this, and some say its completely common and others say i should see a doctor. I am not really comfortable chitchat about this to my parents or a doc.
I own gotten brown spots occasionally on my underwear, too. But thats all its be for 10 months..


Answers: Honey, I can understand you grain uncomfortable chitchat to your parents about things resembling this, but sometimes when our *health* is at risk, we have to!

I choice I could say you could other talk to the academy nurse, or maybe another elder relative... but this is truly something you should talk to your mom in the region of. You've got 6 more years until you're infirm enough to settle on for yourself about enthusiasm issues, so you're going to have to draw from used to bringing these things to "mom" for the time being.

I'm sure she'll be concerned and empathy, and she will probably be able to reassure you that she have a similar experience at your age. Then again, she might take you to see your doctor. But the bottom file is ---you're 12, so it's MOM'S decision to construct.

Good Luck to you... and don't worry. :-)
since your singular 12 i might be normal but afterwards again i dont hv all the facts. are u sexually stirring? i know ur not comfortable about conversation to a doctor but a female doctor is the opening to go. she's a women so she understand. your mom doesnt even have to be contained by the room with you if u dont want her to. i know u dont want to hear this but as someone who care i think you should have a word to someone professionally, so that u get the right direction and find out if there is something seriously wrong beside you. good luck!

    Answers: RU 486 is NOT the morning after pill (referring to Bryce's AND HB's answer).

    Providing an likelihood to surgical abortion, RU-486, or mifepristone, is a drug that causes precipitate medical/chemical abortion in pregnant women by blocking receptors of progesterone, a hormone needed to carry on pregnancy. Early means in 49 days from the first day of the concluding menstrual period. Combining RU-486 near a low-dose prostaglandin (a chemical substance found in the body, that can also be manufactured artificially, beside a number of different effects on bodily processes, such as uterine stimulation or contractions) appears to increase value without increasing side effects. According to results from clinical trials conducted surrounded by the United States and in France, mifepristone is impressive in inducing a complete hasty abortion in 92 to 95 percent of women. Side effects of the drug combination include bleeding, cramping, nausea, vomiting, short-term fatigue or frailty, and occasional diarrhea.

    By the way, mifepristone is not impossible to tell apart thing as emergency contraception (also particular as "the morning after pill" or ECP). Emergency contraception is available to women who have have unprotected intercourse and are concerned that they could become pregnant. It is a hormonal medication that is taken inwardly 72 hours of intercourse and acts to prevent pregnancy. Emergency contraception, when taken correctly, can dwindle the possibility of pregnancy by 75 - 89 percent.

    Ok well my vagina (sorry to be blunt) have been increasingly getting more swollen as I own sex more. I mean its be about a year that I hold been doing it and it have gotten worse gradually. I be just wondering if its middle-of-the-road or not. It doesnt hurt but I did have bladder infection symptoms a couple months rear legs but they cleared up.

I know that I did. It could also be that you could need some more lubrication. You can do this by any getting some KY liquid or hold him spend a longer time stimulating you before he penetrates. But, if it keep on being persistant I would vote go see a gynocoligist.

    i dont think near is anyfing majorly wrong with u
    Are you using condoms? If so, you may be allergic to any the spermicide or the latex. Try different brands to see if that helps.

    Make sure you are properly lubricated, as friction can end in swelling, too.

    You should go see your doctor. They can be paid sure you don't have an infection of some sort that may be cause this.

    Good luck!

    A wife, 32 years of age, has a hysterectomy. A few months down the file, her husband "jokingly" tells her she might as in good health have a d@#*%. What is he essentially trying to vote?


    Answers: apparently her husband feels that the hysterectomy took away her femininity, by removing her reproductive ability. She needs to rota a visit beside a medically qualified marriage counselor and use facts to smoothness his fears. Hopefully that will get him to stop one such a d@#%.
    Sounds to me like he's axiom that she is so flat she is like a man. This is immensely cruel and mean hearted. This type of statement shouldn't even be made sour handed or as a banter. An there is no getting out of the remarks cruel intentions by axiom it was solitary a joke. An apology from the husband here isn't adequate he needs to be on his knees groveling. The operation here is a devastating life span change for adjectives those who have it. You could say aloud this is like slicing a man's penis within half. I am a man and although my ex-wife never go through this. I have be there for three other friends I know who own undergone this procedure.

  • Today during academy....?

    it was ichy and red "down there". My mom is away on break and my dad is the only one home so I go to the nurse and I asked her if it would be okay if she looked around the area like a shot. I held a peice of paper over most of it and she simply checked the red spots. She said I need to budge to the doctor when I got home from college. How do I tell my dad to pocket me?


    Answers: Just tell your dad you own a "female" issue that needs to be address by a doctor and have him thieve you. Most fathers aren't going to want more details than that so you should be fine. If not inform him you think you might hold a yeast infection or something and the school nurse told you to see the doctor.
    You report him you have a unwary that the nurse thinks requests to be checked out, and that you need to move about to the doctor. If he asks to see it, tell him that it's surrounded by a place he doesn't want to look. Simple as that.
