What is the mostly likely week to miscarriage?
Answer:
It's most cokmmon in the first 12 weeks, but can happen at any point during pregnancy.
Miscarriage is most likely to occur within the first 12 weeks of pregnancy.
The first 12 weeks are most crucial. Although any time is a potential for miscarriage. Those first 12 weeks are important in fetal development, and if there is anything wrong, the body will abort in a attempt to stop it from progressing any further.
the first trimester--12 weeks--
miscarriage usually occurs before the 12th week
The highest risk is on or about period time. This is due to the failure of the hormone levels to persist and hold on to the pregnancy. Once placental hormones take over the risk is less. The 3 commonest weeks are 4,8 and 12.
What is the most effective way to drop 10 pounds in a month for someone who is at 135, 5 foot 4 inches tall?
Answer:
The best way to lose weight is to eat healthier foods and do aerobic exercise. Make your own lunch instead of going to a restaurant, and you'll dramatically reduce the fat, oil, and salt you eat. You can still eat many of the same foods you already do - just modify them. For example, instead of putting mayo on your sandwich, try mustard or an olive spread. If you write down *everything* you eat (or take a picture of it with your camera), then you will be better able to keep track of what's going into your body.
To get more exercise, remember that everything you do burns calories. Try walking over to someone's desk instead of emailing or calling them. Park farther away from stores, and walk. Try turning off the TV and going swimming or going for a jog instead. If you have a bike, ride it! If you have kids, challenge them to a race, or play tag/frisbee/anything at the park!
This month's Glamour magazine also has an article on how to lose weight - check that out for more ideas.
Watch what you eat, only eat about 1600 calories a day, and pick an activity that's fun and burns a lot of calories, like swimming or bike riding. and do it every other day. The important thing is to burn more calories than you eat, so exercise and diet is all their is to it, no secret really. But DON'T do a starvation diet, because that slows donw yuor metabolism. To speed up your metabolism don't skip breakfast, and eat a lot of small meals during the day.
dont eat as much and eat more at different times of da day
I think 10 pounds is a little extreme. 135 is not bad. Just eat right and start working out. It is better to try to change your diet and become healthy than to focuse on a number.
you are 135 and under 6 ft tall are you wanting to go in to the hospitable . there is nothing wrong with your size and height . if you are doing this for a boy then find another one he wont be happy with that and will want more . you are healthy DONT RUIN IT BY NOT EATING IT WILL ONLY CAUSE YOU MORE TROUBLE DOWN THE ROAD
What is the most effective medication for menstrual cramps?
I have had severe menstrual cramps for the last 10 years. They interfere with my life in general! In college the nurse first recommended that I take some ibuprofen 2 days before my period but the cramps were still bad. Then she put me on the pill which solved all my problems!! I have used the pill for two years with marvelous results. But the reality is I am not sexually active. I am unnecessarily manipulating the hormones of my body, which might interfere with my fertility in the future if I am blest to meet someone I want to have kids with. This spring I decided to junk the pill. Now I have to take more than the recommended dose of ibuprofen in order to just be able to get out of the bed for the first two days of my period. I don鈥檛 want to have liver damage! Does anyone know any other non-toxic medication that would end my monnightmare? Please let it be legal..I tried codeine and it worked great but my source got arrested!
Answer:
Go see your gyn...maybe you have PMDD, there are prescription meds available. Also, talk with your gyn about your concerns about taking the pill. The pill has been available for over 50 years now, and doesn't seem to adversely affect fertility in most women. There are also the new, low dose pills available.
MIDOL! it works honey!
I find Midol extra strength good
motrin, take them when you get the cramps. sometimes you gotta take 4.
in some women ibuprofen does the work...but if you're having that kind of pain...you should consult your gynecologist...that is often a sign of endometriosis
M-I-D-O-L
Try midol and a heating pad with lots of warm baths
Go to the dr and just explain to him that your (dad) gave you codeine and it worked great for the cramps and I'm sure they would take you off of the pill and give you the T3 for the pain...Good Luck, I always tell the dr my (dad) or some other family member gave me meds...they always buy it, and if they don't they end up giving it to me anyways!
midol, advil, chammomile tea, heat pads, excerise, sex, have a dog sit on ur stomach (the heat, it works, a small dog of course)
Hi,
I had the same problem as you. Cramps so bad the pain would wake me in the middle of a sound sleep. My GYN gave me prescription Ibuprofen (800MG), which helped, but I also went on the pill. I would ask your GYN for a presciption for Ibuprofen...see if that helps. If you are concerned about liver damage from taking so much ibuprofen, be sure to drink PLENTY of water when you take it. Good luck.
Go back to your ob/gyn %26 see what advice/meds you can get.
I used magnesium and calcium supplements and after using them for about a month I have not had any more menstrual cramps for over 2 years now.
Just go back on the pill that the easiest thing and you said it worked for you in the past ...
Are you over weight not a questions you wanted back but weight can factor in your cramps Are you active run walk ect.
do you take time to workout YOGA anything
Do you drink alto of coffee or high caffeine drinks
All of these are factors in cramps and you may change yourlife style and most ofthe problems will go away
As for a quick fix you have choices herbal teas lots of water

What is the medical term for the feeling some women get at the time of ovulation?
Answer:
Mittelschmerz; literally translated from its German origins to "middle pain."
About 20-40% of women experience this pain 2 weeks before their period begins. It can appear on either side of the lower abdomen depending on which ovary is producing the ovum; pain can be on one side of the abdomen one month and switch to the other side during the following cycle.
Most of the time the pain is mildly annoying but in some cases, it can be unbearable.
Hope that helps.
you might be referring to mittelshmertz. it is the pain/cramp caused by the ovary releasing an egg into the fallopian tubes.
If you mean during ovulation, then maybe you're referring to the feeling of bloatedness.
What is the meaning of tenderness in breasts?
Answer:
PMS, pregnancy, cancer, among other things, are all possibilties.
Could you be pregnant?
Michele is right. Are you pregnant??!
after a foreplay this would be solved
(1) tendency to express warm and affectionate feeling
a pain that is felt (as when the area is touched); "the best results are generally obtained by inserting the needle into the point of maximum tenderness"; "after taking a cold, rawness of the larynx and trachea come on"
(2)warm compassionate feelings
affection: a positive feeling of liking; "he had trouble expressing the affection he felt"; "the child won everyone's heart"; "the warmness of his welcome made us feel right at home"
(3)softheartedness: a feeling of concern for the welfare of someone (especially someone defenseless)
Pain is common just before the start of the menstrual cycle, The others are right as well although it is unlikely to be cancer, the lumps do not hurt apparently. If you wear and underwired bra and it is too tight, this will make your breasts feel very tender. If you are really worried then ask a doctor, they won't think it is silly and will understand how you feel and set your mind at rest.
This is one sign of early pregnancy. As you are asking, I am assuming that this is not part of PMS as you would probably already be aware of this. Another reason would be a hormonal imbalance not related to pregnancy - this can be checked out by your GP. If there is a specific tender spot that was not present when you checked yourself last month then seek GP advice too as it could be a blocked duct or a benign cyst. It is a good idea to check yourself monthly, in mid-cycle, so that you know how your healthy breast feels when you are not pregnant nor pre-menstrual. Then when symptoms arise you are comparing them to your last check out. This would also mean that any alarming symptoms such as a lump would be picked up and checked out within four weeks. Tenderness as such is rarely a cancer symptom and with early detection the cure rate for breast cancer is approaching 99%. If you are only slightly tender, have you been jogging or had any other recent exertion which would have put strain on the breasts? Remember they do not have muscles of their own to support them but rely on the muscles of your chest wall and/or a well-fitted bra. Hope this information helps you and any other woman reading this.
(1) tendency to express warm and affectionate feeling
a pain that is felt (as when the area is touched); "the best results are generally obtained by inserting the needle into the point of maximum tenderness"; "after taking a cold, rawness of the larynx and trachea come on"
See a doctor if you cannot figure out the reason for sure.
Get a "mammogram" done with X'rays or MRI or both for peace of mind.
When a female becomes a pregnant, this is common. Confirm yourself and find out from doctor and take care of health.
Breast tenderness is pain or discomfort in the breasts. It is the most common breast symptom women have. It is usually not a sign of breast cancer.
The most common cause of breast tenderness is called fibrocystic breast changes. These changes are caused by the swelling of very tiny fluid-filled cysts in fibrous tissue in the breast. The changes usually happen 7 to 10 days before your menstrual period and go away when your period ends.
Other causes of breast tenderness include:
puberty (in boys as well as girls).
pregnancy.
infection of the breast.
hormone imbalance, especially too much estrogen.
birth control pills.
breast-feeding, when the breasts become full of milk (engorged).
injury of the breast.
a noncancerous tumor in the breast called a fibroma.
a breast cyst (a fluid-filled sac larger than the tiny cysts that cause fibrocystic breast changes).
a condition called hyperprolactinemia, which means your body is producing a high level of the milk-producing hormone prolactin.
breast cancer, but often cancer does not cause any pain.
It means exactly what it says. The breasts are tender or sore to the touch.
What is the meaning of surrogate woman?
Answer:
it means that she carries a baby for someone else because the other person can't have one.
They don't take it in the @ss - not my type then!
i think it's like in the term surrogate mother.. When a woman can't have kids they have another woman do it..
A surrogate woman carries a baby for a couple who are incapable of fertility on their own.
A surrogate mother is when a man and a woman hire another woman to have their baby. The couple cant have children. So they take her egg and his sperm and have it implanted by a doctor into the surrogate mother. Then she gives birth 9 months later to that couples biological baby. She is techincally the mother because she gave birth but genetically she is not the mother.

What is the maximum number for a woman to have abortion, that she is still free from health problem?
Answer:
Each time you have an abortion you are running the risk of not being able to maintain pregnancy in the future or even get pregnant again ,the inside of your uterus is scraped out and vacuumed, with each procedure your are running the risk of complications of surgery, infection, blood clots and even death. If you read the fine print on the consent it will list complications, that's for any surgery. My niece just had a hysterectomy because of complications of too many professional abortions so now she'll never have kids. I'm not being negative or trying to scare you but I think women need to know the facts. Call the health dept and talk to an RN they are always available to talk to you without bias opinions. I wish you the best.
Use a condom
One abortion is already considered high risk in a woman.
There is no minimum or maximum number of abortions that a woman can have, that "guarantees" that she will not have health problems... It only takes one...
Use condoms.
Depends on the woman.. the type of abortion performed (some have higher risk of complications)..the doctor who performs the abortion.. whether infection occured after the procedure etc... So, to answer your question, I do not believe there is a definitive number that can be applied here. Sorry to give you such a wishy-washy answer but it does totally depend on the woman and the doctor...
Don't risk, if you ever want a baby don't even think that way. There are plenty of other posible ways to protect yourself of pregnancy. Please go to your doctor and have real good conversation about the thing. Abortion is not "protection" of pregnancy, condom is, pills are, and there are other things.
Please be wise, after that kind of steps in your life you couldn't be ever be the same person, and all the regrets that you might have afterwards in your life...just don't risk! Regards!
What is the liquid that comes out from any girl after having sex with someone, and what does it do?
Answer:
Semen, get women pregnant.
Or the stuff that I call "juice" and it lubricates us. =)
It's usually her or the man's ***.
What does it do? Make a freakin mess.
But that's about it.
The vagina lubricates itself during intercourse, and this small amount of liquid merges with semen. Some women are juicier than others. Then again, there's another phenomenon that happens to many women, which is female ejaculation. This can take the form of leaking, dribbling, or actually squirting out, and the amounts can range from very small to huge. But it's all normal.
What is the grandaddy of all sex questions?
There is a chapter in a certain sex book with this title and it is baffling me what the question is.
Answer:
To try anal, or not to try anal, that is the biggest question.

What is the fasination with wearing thongs and g-strings?
Answer:
There is NOTHING fascinating about butt-floss!
Well if your sexual they are attractive to most men, with a matching bra..My real reason, is so there are no pantie lines~ :)
Don't know...you might as well not wear any underwear. Unless it's for some sexual fulfillment.
Its not a fascination. I would prefer to wear boy shorts, however thongs don't bunch up. If you wear any other kind, you have to kind of tuck them into your pants so they dont roll or bunch up. Of course, they also dont show lines. They are the most comfortable to wear with tight pants.

Alcohol does nothing to birth control pills.keep on drinking the wine!
I'm on a different birth control, Loestrin24, but my obgyn said alcohol normally does not decrease the effectiveness of the pill.
Some women who drink forget to take their pills. This can be very detrimental to their wellbeing.

What is the difference between ortho cyclen and ortho tri cyclen?
I just started taking ortho cyclen and im wondering if I should switch to ortho tri cyclen. Thanks!
Answer:
They are very similar and both work equally as well. They have the same type of hormones. The difference is that each Ortho-Cyclen has exactly the same doses of the hormones in the pill, and Tri-Cyclen varies them somewhat (actually 3 different strength pill in Tri-Cyclen, hence the name "Tri").
well i dont know how the one your taking is but i take orthotricyclin and it has 3 different colors of pills (tri) and the 3 pills put your body through 3 different cycles. Im pretty happy with it.. no side effects.

It's an average of 6 inches.
They vary. Every woman is different.
The Russians have deeeper and the Chinese have smaller..! ;O
Don"T Know really it all depends upon the physique
It's around 8 - 13 cm depth.
What is the danger with having a breast cyst that has a hard center?
Answer:
Do you mean it feels hard to the touch? If so, then you are just feeling a cyst which is very full of fluid, and therefore, it just feels hard. Think of a water balloon.more water, the "harder" the balloon feels.
If you had an ultrasound and the cyst has a solid component, then you do not have a simple cyst, but a complex cyst. Most times, a complex cyst needs further diagnostic workup.ie biopsy to confirm it is benign.
A simple cyst is not cancer and never magically transforms into cancer:
"Breast Cyst -- Breast cysts, tiny accumulations of fluid, are the most common cause of breast lumps in women. Simple cysts are round or oval and have smooth edges. Complex cysts can be filled with debris and may require aspiration to confirm that they are benign. Multiple cysts are very common. The exact causes of cysts are not known but tend to change with hormonal variations. Breast cysts are not cancer and do not increase your risk of cancer. Unforunately, they may be quite uncomfortable."

will it can swell which when that happens leads to pain or even breast cancer.. why?
What is the condition that makes pregnant women crave dirt? Symptoms?
Answer:
Its called Pica. And the symptoms are just cravings for things that are iron rich...clay, potting soil, etc. I think it has something to do with iron deficiency.
Vitamin deficiency. But don't eat it, you will get pin worms
Pickles and ice cream. Cheese Whiz on steak. Brownie mix -- straight from the bowl. While these may not exactly seem like gourmet fare, if you're pregnant they can seem like heaven on a plate.
The reason: Pregnancy cravings - those seemingly unquenchable longings for oftentimes eclectic combinations of foods that you might never otherwise even dream of eating!
But what's behind these mysterious food fantasies, and can they ever be harmful? Doctors say the answers depend a lot on what you are craving.
"No one really knows why pregnancy cravings occur, though there are theories that it represents some nutrient that the mother may be lacking -- and the crave is the body's way of asking for what it needs," says Andrei Rebarber, MD, associate director of the division of maternal-fetal medicine at NYU Medical Center in New York.
When that overwhelming desire for pickles or processed cheese hits, Rebarber says it could be the body asking for more sodium. That aching for a Big Mac and a plate of fries may be your need for more protein, sodium, or potassium. The burning in your belly for a double helping of chocolate double latte ice cream may be signaling a need for more calcium or fat.
"It's not that the body actually needs the specific food you are craving, but it may need something in that food. And your taste buds just interpret it as a craving for something specific," says Rebarber.
What's more, many experts say our taste buds do actually play a role in how we interpret our body's needs. Studies show that the high hormone levels present during pregnancy can alter both a woman's sense of taste and smell. So certain foods and odors can not only be more enticing but in some cases more offensive; a problem that often plays out as a pregnancy food aversion.
"Food aversions are most often associated with early pregnancy -- when they are likely to touch off a bout of morning sickness -- with nausea and vomiting," says Rebarber.
While some pregnancy cravings can certainly seem a bit odd, in most instances, they don't represent any real threat to mother or the baby. This, however, can change dramatically, when the craving is for a nonfood item. The condition, known as pica, can lead to an overwhelming desire to consume any number of substances, some of which can be extremely harmful to both mother and baby.
"During pregnancy a woman can crave -- and eat -- things like dirt, laundry starch, crayons, ground up clay pots, ice scraped from the freezer. As bizarre as it seems, the desire can be overwhelming," says Peter S. Bernstein, MD, MPH, medical director of obstetrics and gynecology at the Comprehensive Family Care Center of Montefiore Medical Center in Bronx, N.Y.
While pica -- eating non-nutritive substances -- is not well understood, Bernstein says sometimes these cravings represent a nutritional deficiency, particularly a need for iron, though he says there are no studies to prove this is always the case.
In some instances, Bernstein tells WebMD that the cravings can also have a cultural or ethnic component, one which actually fosters eating these dangerous nonfood items.
"The craving is there, and then fulfilling it is encouraged within certain cultural communities," says Bernstein.
Among the most dangerous aspects of pica is the consumption of lead -- particularly when women eat dirt or clay. This can lead to infant and child developmental problems with low verbal IQ scores, impaired hearing and motor skill development. Other research has shown an increased risk of learning disabilities and attention deficit disorders in infant exposure to lead before birth.
"I've had women and their babies develop lead poisoning from eating dirt during pregnancy; the neurological damage can be overwhelming," says Bernstein.
If you do find yourself craving any nonfood item, experts say see your doctor immediately and be tested for iron deficiency anemia or other nutritional deficiencies such as zinc, which has also been linked to pica.
For most women, pregnancy food cravings fall into just a few categories: sweet, spicy, salty, or occasionally sour. Surveys show only a scant 10% of pregnant women crave fruits and veggies during pregnancy, with a desire to gobble down foods such as peaches, blueberries, or broccoli not high on the "must have" scale.
And in fact, that's one reason doctors sometimes raise a red flag about pregnancy cravings.
"My biggest concern is when food cravings replace good nutrition -- in other words, a woman will fill up on the foods she craves and skip the nutritious foods her body and her baby really need," says Rebarber.
Not only can this cause serious deficiencies in both baby and mom, since oftentimes the foods we crave during pregnancy can be laden with empty calories, it can also lead to gaining too much weight; a problem that doctors say is on the rise.
It's called Pica and Pica strikes all races and socioeconomic groups, however, there are cultural tendencies towards this disorder. While it is also associated with nutritional deficiencies, pica can occur when there are no deficiencies.
The most frequent deficiency noted is anemia. This does not mean that everyone who has anemia will crave non-food substances, nor does it mean that everyone who craves non-food substances has anemia.

What is the cause of TSS besides the tampons?
Answer:
Toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is a serious but uncommon bacterial infection. TSS was originally linked to the use of tampons, but it is now also known to be associated with the contraceptive sponge and diaphragm birth control methods. In rare cases, TSS has resulted from wounds or surgery incisions where bacteria have been able to enter the body and cause the infection.
What Is Toxic Shock Syndrome?
There are actually two different types of this condition. Toxic shock syndrome, which is caused by Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, has been associated with the use of tampons. (TSS was initially linked to a particular type of tampons, which has since been taken off the market.) Although the exact connection is still not clear, researchers suspect that certain types of high-absorbency tampons provided a moist, warm home where the bacteria could thrive.
Although TSS usually occurs in menstruating women, it can affect anyone who has any type of staph infection, including pneumonia, abscess, skin or wound infection, a blood infection called septicemia, or a bone infection called osteomyelitis.
A related infection, streptococcal toxic shock syndrome, or STSS, is caused by streptococcus bacteria. Most often STSS appears after streptococcus bacteria have invaded areas of injured skin, such as cuts and scrapes, surgical wounds, and even chickenpox blisters. It almost never follows a simple streptococcus throat infection (strep throat).
Toxin produced by Staph aureus
TSS is a bacteria infection that has also been linked to the use of diaphragms and contraceptive sponges for the use of birth control.
Some steps to prevent TSS is alternate between tampons %26 pads. Wash hands after using the washroom, TSS can be passed by dirty hands. Use tampons with lowest absorbency to handle your menstral flow. Lastly, store your feminine products in a cool places like a closet instead in the bathroom under a sink. I hope this answered your question.
What is the cause of Spina Bifida?
Answer:
Ordinarily, during fetal development, the spinal cord is formed as a tube that folds in on itself, and if that does not happen correctly, the spinal cord is splayed open like a gutted fish.
I believe it is associated with folate deficiency in early pregnancy, so early in fact that the woman may not realize she is pregnant.
Not enough folate (folic acid) in mom's diet prior to getting pregnant. To avoid sb, take folate supplement for about 3 months before trying, and start taking it as soon as you find out you are pregnant.
Also, eat lots of greeen vegetables.
Most sb is caused by this, but not all
What is the cause of no periods yet a pregnancy tests shows negative?
Answer:
You can skip periods due to stress but if you have taken your test really quickly try it again in a few days
pregnancy tests can sometimes be ineffective. You should probably talk to your doctor. They can give you a better answer than I can.
many women athletes have no periods if they are training hard
1) false-negative test result in which you do not have enough of the pregnancy-related hormones in your urine to detect a test
2) stress could cause you to have a late/skipped period
3) more exercise than usual could cause the late/skipped period the same way stress does
4) stress about being pregnant can sometimes cause your body to act as if it's pregnant
Get a BLOOD pregnancy test. Two of my six children came out as 'negatives' in the urine tests--blood doesn't lie.
The menstrual cycle can be messed up by stress, illness, poor diet, hormonal imbalances, or going on or off the Pill. If you suspect pregnancy, use a home test with your first pee in the morning because the urine is more concentrated then. Or you can go to your doctor and ask for a quantitative beta hCG blood test that measures the pregnancy hormone in your blood. Good luck.
How regular are you? I have never had regular periods and I am 37 years old. With my second pregnacy I spotted (and thought they were my periods) for the first 5 months. Big surprise when I caught my stomach profile coming out of the shower! There are alot of reasons. Stress can cause missed periods. If you are really worried, talk to your doctor.
A severe eating disorder can cause your periods to stop. Or if you're malnourished for some other reason. If you have an eating disorder and your period stops, this is very serious - please see a doctor! Also, sometimes a pregnancy test can be wrong - better to see the doctor to double check.
sounds like you are not ovulating...sometimes stess can stop a period...or something in the uterus is not functioning properly...I have a freind who tried black cohosh and it regulated her periods when this happened to her...hope it helps
It could be that you are pregnant, but the human growth horomone is too low for the pregnancy to detect it. If you don't think it could be due to diet, stress, or exercise factors go get a blood test done.
mental stress and strain
anxiety and exitement
get over it and u will be fine
There are so many reasons for this. If you have missed more than one - I would see your doctor.
Stress, weight loss, illnesses, over tired, etc.
Some months you might just spot and then the next month you may have more bleeding than usual. That is 'normal'
You could be pregnant and it just didn't show up - you have to be careful what time of the month, and time of the day to have more accurate tests.
Most importantly - if you are really worried about getting pregnant that worry and stress can actually keep you from having your period!
Secondary amenorrhea, or a lack of a period in women who have had their period before, not due to pregnancy, has numerous explanations. If the person is still within five years of their first menses, the menstrual cycle could easily still be regulating itself. Often times, even in more "experienced" women, menstruation can be a month, even three months, late without any true reasons. In these cases, it is just the body acting in a different manner. Other non-problematic explanations could be that it is environmental. If you are exercising too heavily, eating too little, or practicing another dietary change, you may be inhibiting your body's ability to menstruate. Emotional stress also alters your flow. As menstruation is a taxing process (building up extra blood vessels in the uterus, then shedding it should it go unused via pregnancy), and only occurs if the rest of the body has enough resources from food to spare. That said, eating less than 1,000 calories per day, which seems to be the minimal necessary requirement, will likely cause missed menstruations. It is important to remember during these times that ovulation, the maturation of an egg, is still occurring, and pregnancy is still possible, so people experiencing a lack of menstruation should still practice safe sexual activities.
Another reason could be menopause. Menopause has been reported in, very rarely, women at age 25. Some women are born with less eggs than others, and thus go into menopause much earlier than others. Likely, though, this is not your case, as you are still worried about pregnancy, but if you experience symptoms typical of menopause (mood swings, hot flashes, et cetera), there are different methods to determine whether or not this is the case.
Illegal drug use, especially marijuana, can slow the growth of the endometrium, the uterine lining. Hormonal glands may also be out of balance, in which case other symptoms such as a change in breast size or unusual hair growth may occur alongside. It may also be the result of ovarian cancer or irritation of the endometrium, though unlikely.
My main advice is to allow a maximum of two months for menstruation to restart, and during this time examine your lifestyle. If, after two months, there are still no signs of a period, visit your doctor or gynecologist, who can perform simple tests to determine the cause. As secondary amenorrhea is a symptom rather than an illness, it could prove invaluable. Until the two month deadline, though, relax and keep on the lookout for any other changes in your body.
It may be stress.have you tried another test.Good Luck
What is the CAUSE of a woman's body NOT producing progesterone?
And what effects will your body have if you don't take medication such as Provera?
Answer:
That's something that will vary from individual to individual, and is best answered by an endocrinologist. One way or another the answer will lie in the ovaries and most commonly, I'd think, with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS).
Without the use of synthetic hormones, a woman lacking progesterone won't have normal menstrual cycles. However, with proper diagnostic work and investigation into the cause of the hormone imbalance, there may be better treatment for it (eliminating or addressing the cause of the imbalance rather than just putting in the missing hormone blindly) that will cause other health improvements as well.
If this is something you're dealing with, please see an endocrinologist!

What is the birth control pill where you only have 4 periods a year?
Is it healthy to only have 4 a year?
Answer:
Actually, there is that one they advertise, but I've had a couple of friends just take regular bc pills and instead of taking the placebos for a week, they just start a new pack- prescribed by their doc of course because you go through more packs per year.
As far as being healthy to have 4/yr- Just my opinion, and I'm not a gyn but I can't imagine it being any more harmful or risky than taking the pills in the first place-

What is the best, slip resistant, comfortable shoe for food service industry?
im a waitress often working double shifts and my feet kill at the end of the day, i have danskos and they are horrible, and i heard shoes for crews is just a waste of money...help! i need something slip resistant and comfy! preferably a black sneaker.
Answer:
Have you considered Crocs professionals? Though they are not a sneaker per se, they are certainly VERY comfortable and definitely slip resistant.
Best of luck,
~M~
I've worked as both a waitress and kitchen staff and I love Sketchers sneakers. They have a wide variety to choose from, they have excellent tread, and you can wear them outside of work as well. Sketchers also tend to have good arch support and are durable. I still often wear a pair of them to work that I've had for four years and the tread isn't even worn down yet.

What is the best, fastest way to get rid of menstrual cramps?
I usually take Advil to get rid of the pain but I don't want to rely on medicine all the time. Is there a better way to get rid of menstrual cramps?
Answer:
heating pad works really well.
you could get the ones that you plug in (electronic or whatever, i dont really know what theyre called) or i think they have heating patch kindof things you can use
Try a heat pack to your lower abdomen.
no salty foods no pop and dont drink too much water you will become bloated
avoid caffeine when you know your period will be coming soon.
Exercise (even just walking for 30 minutes) will release endorphins, which are your body's natural pain killers, and will ease cramps, even when they're so bad you don't want to move...
I do this whenever I have a rough period...and I have PCOS and Fibroid tumors, so all my periods are rough like that, pretty much.
try hot tea or take a warm bath that will help you and relax you also this is new and it will help you therma care heat wrap for menstrual cram relief that's what i use and they work
here go to this website and see if they have a coupon sometimes they do

What is the best way to take care of my skin after shaving "down there" ?
I am wanting to shave "down there" but I am afraid of razor burn and irritation. I have really sensitive skin so I can't even imagine how sensitive it will be there.
What are the best ways to take care of my skin to reduce the razor burn and irritation?
Answer:
I also have very sensative. I have been shaving "down there" for over 2 years now. I use baby powder, and follow up with a vitamin A or E cream. If you do get a little irritation even after the powder and cream, just add a little more cream. I have never had razor burn there. I used to get razor burn on my legs, but also started using the powder and cream on my legs and have not had razor burn for a few years. You should be fine.
Good luck.
PS: Apply the powder and cream immediately after getting out of the tub. Very important.
Skin is skin. Except for nipples and mouth lips. Very sensitive skin.
Use an electric shaver first, for the long hair.
Then use a sensitive skin shaver from Bic, all yellow, to finish the job. Apply a neutral lubricant to the skin before using the bic, such as petroleum jelly. Hand creams have various scents that may burn the tissue inside your uterus that is NOT skin.
Females look better shaved. So thank you.
This is my opionion, get one of those puffy things you can use in the shower, lather it up with some shave cream, soap or body wash. Scrub around the area so that it exfoliates and lifts the hair follicles, preparing it for a close shave. Use a triple blade razor for women and shave down first to remove the bulk of the long hair. Use the puffy thing to scrub around some more lifting the hairs. Use hot water to rinse the blade, and I find it helps to keep the bumps down. Now shave upwards against the hair follicle for a close smooth shave, scrubbing with the fluffy thing between shaves and rinsing when the blade gets clogged up.

What is the best way to prevent birth stretch marks before it forms. Thanks.?
Answer:
I heard that you should use a cream with cocoa butter in it. That's what I am going to do when I get pregnant. Or maybe a stretch mark cream. Anyway, just smooth it on whnever youa re sittin down and morning and night. That should halp. Also, try as hard as you can not to gain weight really fast. That's where the marks come from. Don't eat yousrelf full and don't be afraid for the baby if you're hungry. It's god to be hungry before you eat. That's the body's way of telling you it's time to eat.
easy one this
dont get pregant
lololol
Stretch marks are an individual thing, your skin type, heredity etc.
However; a few things to remember, do not take hot baths (it reduces the elasticity in your skin).
Cocoa butter may not be scientifically proven, but it can't hurt.
Don't anticipate getting large by eating a great amount, this will cause rapid weight gain in a short amount of time (skin cannot keep up).
Good Luck!
I have had four children and never got a stretch mark with any, even though I gained 60 - 80 lbs. with each pregnancy. (before the "no more than 20 lb." people scream, I started each one very skinny and my doctor said, "maybe you'll keep some of the weight after, so it's ok".) I didn't, within a month of each birth I was back to my normal weight of 119, because apparently lots of my weight gain was fluids.
Anyway, even before I became pregnant, I developed the habit of rubbing my whole body with Jergen's body lotion after every bath or shower 'cause I liked the way it made my skin feel. I had never even heard of stretch marks until after my second child when I saw a woman in the hospital with horrible ones, she looked like a zebra, and I thought it was some sort of skin condition.
I hadn't done anything but follow my usual practice of slathering on body lotion everyday, but apparently that's what saved me from this disfigurement. So, everyday, rub body lotion all over yourself, especially, obviously, your abdomen and thighs and fanny and you'll be fine.
Now I think lots of people use some lotion with cocoa butter, but I think any good thick body lotion will work, as long as you do it regularly and often and use a lot. Good luck!
What is the best way to lose weight fast?
I want to lose about 10 pounds really fast.How can i do it in lke 2 to 3 weeks?
Answer:
read this article to find out 21 ways to lose weight
http://www.firmupyourabs.com/21ways.html...
It's never good to loose a large amount of weight in a short time b/c it messes with your basal metabolism (which will make it harder for you to loose the weight next go around). You also have a much higher chance of gaining all the weight back (rebound weight gain). You best bet is to loose a 0-5 lbs. per month by eating a healthy diet and exercise. Remember it's what you take in vs. what you put out. You need to burn off more than what you take in...but remember you need to still be eating enough to maintain good health. I hope this helps and good luck!

What is the best way to lose middle fat?
im 5'2" and 160lbs. my ideal goal is 125-130lbs. most of my weight hangs out in the middle and chest areas. i don't have much control over what i eat. i would like to know about effective fat loss and muscle toning excersizes.
Answer:
I recently read about a study that said weights/resistance training was the most effective way to lose the middle fat (specifically, the fat around your internal organs, which apparently is worse than other fat in terms of health consequences).
if you go to the gym, you can ask someone there to show you how to correctly use all the nautilus-style weight machines, and a good basic routine is to just do a "circuit" of the room, doing about 15-20 repetitions on each machine. start at a very low weight and then try to increase it every week or two.
you should make sure you're eating a balanced diet, with plenty of fruits and vegetables. try to cut out (or at least reduce) "empty calorie" foods like sodas and potato chips, and otherwise just reduce the size of your meals (a good rule is to eat until you're not hungry, as opposed to eating until you're full).
in the long run, it's usually not effective to make drastic dietary changes. the majority of people who go on extreme diets (such as atkins) eventually regain the weight that they lost. it's better to make smaller "lifestyle changes", things that you can sustain indefinitely without going crazy.

What is the best way to loose ten pounds?
Answer:
Try this one. It is really effective and I've proven this!
Weight Loss Diet Program:
This program is designed for a target weight loss of 10-17 lb per week. It will also improve your attitudes and emotions because of its cleansing systematic effects.
The effectiveness of this seven day plan is that the foods eaten burn more calories than they give to the body in caloric value.
This plan can be used as often as you like without any fear of complications. It is designed to flush your system of impurities and give you feeling of well being. After seven days you will begin to feel lighter because you will be lighter by at least 10 lb. You will have an abundance of energy and an improved disposition.
During the first seven days you must abstain from all alcohol.
You must drink 10 glasses of water each day.
Day One: All fruits except bananas. Your first day will consist of all the fruits you want. It strongly suggested that you consume lots of melons the first day specially water melon and cantaloupe. If you limit your fruit consumption to melons, your chances of losing 3 lb on first day are very good.
Day Two: All vegetables. You are encouraged to eat until you are stuffed with all the raw or cooked vegetables of your choice. There is no limit on the amount or type. For your complex carbohydrate, you will start day two with a large baked potato for breakfast. You may top the potato with one pat of butter.
Day Three: A mixture of fruits and vegetables of your choice. Any amount, any quantity. No bananas yet. No potatoes today.
Day Four: Bananas and milk. Today you will eat as many as eight bananas and drink three glasses of milk. This will be combined with the special soup which may be eaten in limited quantities.
Day Five: Today is feast day. You will eat beef and tomatoes. Eat two 10oz portions of lean beef. Hamburger is ok. Combine with six whole tomatoes. On day five you must increase your water intake by one quart. This is to cleanse your system of the uric acid you will be producing.
Day Six: Beef and vegetables. Today you may eat an unlimited amount of beef and vegetables. Eat to your heart content.
Day Seven: Today your food intake will consist of brown rice, fruit juices and all the vegetables you care to consume.
Tomorrow morning you will be 10-17 lb lighter than one week ago. If you desire further weight loss, repeat the program again. You may repeat this program as often as you like. However, after the first week it will help your digestion and settle your stomach.
Beverages you may consume while on the program:
1.Water (flavored with lemon/lime if desired)
2.Club Soda is ok
3.Black coffee. No cream or cream substitute. No sugar
or sweetness
4.Black Tea = Herb or Leaf
5.Absolutely nothing else except the fruit juices which
are part of day seven. No fruit juices before day seven.
Special Soup: The following soup is intended as a supplement to your diet. It can be eaten any time of the day in virtual unlimited quantities. You are encouraged to consume large quantities of this soup.
28oz water, 6 large onions, 2 green peppers, whole tomatoes (fresh or canned), 1 head cabbage, 1 bunch celery, 4 envelopes Lipton onion soup mix, herbs and flavoring as desired.
Don't eat for twenty days. Like a hunger strike.
The best way is to eat a grapefruit every morning before you eat anything else. Do this for 2-weeks straight and you will naturally begin to eat less because your appetite will decrease. Also, substitute all sodas for that period for water only. Even diet sodas causes you to crave carbohydrates and reg. soda is loaded with 2-servings worth of calories.
Caution: check your medicine bottles for warnings on grapefruit interaction. Grapefruit works through your system so well, it can sometimes interact with your medicine.
buy 10 lottery tickets? you always loose, but then again you may gain some. lol
if you do try grapefruit, (as stated in the above persons) you should watch with all medication. as it makes tablets that your taking get absorbed more, sometimes 10x more. so be carful.
well if yu want to loose ten pounds and keep them off just decrease your food portions a little not alot and do cardio excercises like running, or biking
and also stretch your muscles to get the blood running through your system and increase your metabolism in the morning and before you go to bed
put them with your car keys.
Same way you put ten pound on but do the opposit!
What is the best way for my gf to shave her muff w/ bumps and irritation?
Answer:
I think you mean WITHOUT bumps and irritation, right?!
Waxing will be smooth, until the hair starts growing back in, and then she'll have tons of ingrown hairs. ie, bumps and irritation.
Shaving works for me, and I don't know of any way to avoid some irritation, but it's worth it. :)
Hey Alex, I saw you added me as a Contact so I checked out your questions and answers. It sounds like you are searching for biblical truth, but then this question suggests that you are being intimate with your girlfriend. God wants you hot or cold, not lukewarm. Choose to serve Him wholeheartedly! Blessings..
get it waxed. that usually doesn't give bumps.
why would you want her to have bumps and irritation?
as your question says "...w/ bumps and irritation"-have her shave in the opposite direction of hair growth.
for a smooth shave without bumps and irritation-first have her go out and buy a soothing bikini spray that reduces redness and irritation (it's good for legs too)-shave in the direction of hair growth first, then lightly shave the opposite direction. it's best to to it with some shaving cream. when she's done, wash off the excess foam and with a towel pat down. rubbing is bad. then use the cooling spray over the area she has shaved and wait 3 minutes for it to dry.
or just have her get a wax. it can be expensive - but even that doesn't prevent redness, bumps, and irritation from time to time.
no, no. Have her go in and get it professionally waxed, it is called Brazilian wax. if she is too embarrassed for that, get a do it yourself wax kit, but..be VERY carefull! home waxing kits come with lotion that helps to kill the pain and stop irritation. good luck
What is the best way for a 15 year old girl to lose belly fat?
I am 15, and weigh between 135-140. Everyday I weigh myself, and I weigh differently, between that range. Is this a normal range for my height, 5'5? I always think it's normal, but I have some belly fat I want to lose. I don't have a car so I can't drive to the gym everyday...but I go when I can. I do crunches at home, but they never seem to work...or the weight I lose gains back fast. I also am a vegetarian. What are good ways to lose belly fat weight? Any ideas are appreciated! :-)(-: THANKS!
Answer:
40 minute daily jog or brisk walk (atleast 4 days in a week), smaller dinner at night, good hearty breakfast %26 lunch, lots of salad and small cup of water every 1 hour...
well u may not be getting enough nutrition in your diet try a multivitamin if u don't already take one and just dot the usual sit ups and crunches it could also just be baby fat still
i would say you may want to do something other than crunches especially if you do them every day because your abs need a day to recover after doing an ab exercise. i would suggest joggin a couple miles every 2 days along with every other day ab workouts and even yoga can help.
Continue being active and continue with the crunches. You also will have to cut back on certain that you eat. Put more fiber in your diet and drink lots of water. Remember stay active.
try the kellogs super k that works instead of having a big meal at night and also put the soda away bread chips fast food that where you are getting it from try taking green tea
cut out any beverage that isn't low fat milk, tea(w/o sugar or honey) or water. Only drink other beverages as a treat, which is what they were made to be in the first place. Those high calorie beverages aren't meant for daily consuption. This goes also for food. If it comes in a box or drive thru don't eat it. Food wasn't meant to last 4years on a shelf and it shouldn't be made to do so.
With a balanced, portion controlled healty diet and more activity the weight will literally fall off.

Those high calorie beverages aren't meant for daily consuption. This goes also for food. If it comes in a box or drive thru don't eat it. Food wasn't meant to last 4years on a shelf and it shouldn't be made to do so.
With a balanced, portion controlled healty diet and more activity the weight will literally fall off.

What is the best vitamins to take?
I am a 20 year old women and i am pretty healthy just allergies and one cycst is all that is wrong with me but i don't feel complete is what i guess i can call it. I get very tired easily and i dont feel as if i am being healthy as i possibly could be. I'd like to start taking vitamins of some sort but i do not know what kind to take. can someone please help me!? thanx!
Answer:
Well, I suggest you take what I take...here goes:
Vitamin C--500mg--one per day
Vitamin B 100 complex--one per day
Women's One Daily--one per day
Calcium--600mg, one-two a day
Potassium--99mg, one per day
I would recommend you buy "Spring Valley" brand, they're good quality, and they're available at Walmart! Or, you can purchase from their online site: http://www.springvalleyherbs.com/catalog...
*If you have any questions on what these vitamins are good for, just email me..and I let ya know! ;0)
Centrum is a great multi vitamin, but first, wouldn't it be a good idea to talk to your doctor and tell him the way your feeling? We can't afford to lose you, and if there is something going on that I don't know about, or that you don't realize, I couldn't forgive myself, nor would you forgive me for wrongly directing you. I know you may think this is a bit intense but think about it, your life isn't expendable. God bless

What is the best type of birthcontrol?
Im on the pill now... But i keep forgetting to take it.. I need something that I dont have to remember as often and wont make me gain weight... any tips??
Answer:
Depends on the individual and what stage of life you are in. I think the pill is great for people who want to have a method that is easily reversible and help with period issues such as cramps..as well as not mess with a barrier methods like condoms. But you will have to take the pill daily. There are other hormonal options such as the Depo shot and the Nuva ring which you won鈥檛 have to worry about remembering to take daily. If you are not in a monogamous relationship..use condoms to protect yourself from STDs. Also the diaphram and the IUD maybe options for you as they are more permanent. plus you won't have to worry about hormonal side effect such as weight gain. If you are done having babies and ready for a permanent method go for sterilization. Either way it is best to talk to your ob/gyn and get a physical exam and decide on the method most appropriate for you.
It really depends on you.
If you are bad with pills go on depo.
It does have a slight chance of gaining weight.
Stay away from the patch. It has a high risk of strokes.
now on the pill subject, I lost 12 pounds while I was on ortho tri cyclen. Don't take if you smoke.
There are so many things to think about when you are considering what birth control to be on. I was on the pill.now I have a three year old. Yeah I forgot to take my pill 2 days in a row. I was on the shot for about a year, no problems at all, except it took me a long time to get pregnant after I was off. If you aren't concerned about getting pregnant right when you get off the shot, I would recommend that. I have also heard some really good things about the patch.
definately talk to your doctor a little bit more about this, he can help you determine what is best for you.

i use to have the same problem with forgetting to take my pill so i went on the depo and i cant complain about it all the only thing you have to remember to go back every 3 months to get another shot and if you have insurance it is actually pretty cheap i only have to pay 10 bucks every 3 months

What is the best thing to toy your ***** with if you don't have toys?
I love to play with my ***** and just use my finger. Is there anything I can use for a toy?
Answer:
Cucumbers....potatoes that are carved to your desire (seen this one on adult TV) in the shower with the shower head on a pulsing position, back massager or just turn your phone on vibrate and keep hitting redial! Have fun..
electric toothbrush
ME !
If you don't want to dish out the money for a toy, you can use whatever phallic-looking objects you have around the house. bananas work well, but I would suggest putting a condom on it, just so you don't get dirt inside of you, this can lead to a lot of issues.
small bottles work pretty well too
Just make sure whatever you find is clean and it doesn't hurt to use. Pain is usually an indicator that something is wrong!
Hope I helped!
Me!
Check out an adult toy catalog (slumber parties is a good one). Using household items can get you into trouble. Do you really want an embarrasing emergency room visit?
go for the electric toothbrush
back massager
Whatever you find that is safe to use, you should probably start with something smallish though... in the past when i've been desperate i've used a long thin lip gloss... a carot in a condom... a perfume bottle... just be careful with anything that might come off (lid on said perfume bottle) and mind for any sharp edges or ridges/bumps... would only recommend the electric toothbrush if your on your own as it may make a humming noise...
use the Pulsar vibrating toothbursh.it's good im serious.
-.- tats easy my big penis XP
there are many things you can use such as: electric tooth brush, candle stick, frozen hot dog, handle of a hair brush, the neck of a bottle, heel of a shoe, warm water while laying under the faucet in the bath tub, and anything else you want to try. you need to use your imagination.

What is the best thing to do if you have painful abdomen??
Answer:
What's up? Are you sick? having your period? have sore muscles? stomachache? Your abdomen is a huge area. Give us more details, please.
We need to know where the pain is exactly, then we might be able to help.
In a busy world you probably dont have time to relax it off. Recommend you to visit you local Pharmacy/Chemist for a "Muscle Relaxant" drug. That relaxes your muscles. You may have inflammation. If you dont have abdominal pain due to exercise etc. you may have a Appendix problem, which you need to be cautious about. It can also be an Ulcer. Check when you visit the loo, look for blood. You may have internal bleeding caused from an Ulcer. Your best bet is to rather check out your GP for a proper diagnose.
What exactly did you say to your mom when you started your period?
Tell me and i will pick and thats what ill say exactly to on a note
This will really help!!
PLEASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSEEEE!!!?...
Answer:
Guess what mom? I'm a women!
I just simply told her that I was having a problem she asked what and I told her, she then told me about what was going on and the birds and the bees.
I said "mom, i think i have my period"
I was really nervous, but there was no need to be. Your mom is expecting this to happen and it's a normal, natural part of growing into a woman (I know, sappy!). Just come out and tell her and ask her any questions you might have.
I GOT IT!
I had really bad cramps the day i got my period.. i was in so much pain i couldn't stop crying. Mid morning the pain stopped and i got my period..
I just went up to my mother and said i have my period.. where to you keep the pads??
I need some pads.
um you just tell her you say, mom i got my period
I walked out of the bathroom and said "Mom, I think I got my period." Just like that.
i came into her room and asked for some wipes since mine were all dried out then i left. then i came back cuz i would nt stop bleeding and told my mom i was bleed ing there. then she told me i got my period. then i started crying!! but it's not that bad any more. hope i helped!!
mom I am a man and i got my period..help
I told her not to tell anybody lol. My sister stormed down the stairs, threw herself into a chair across from my mom and said, "Hope everyboy is happy now!" My mom was like, "WTF are you talking about?" And she goes, "It comes at the end of a sentence!!!!!!!!...
This will really help!!
