I was really worried I might've been pregnant, and then yesterday I finally got my period (which is the day I'm supposed to) but my period flow is really weird. It wasn't as heavy as it should've been and I also had more watery blood coming out..as in not red as it should be. Is this normal?

That happens to me. On my first day, the blood is never fully blood, it's more of the lining so it's watery and a darker red color and sometimes it's a very light red color. The actual blood doesn't come until the next day. This could be happening to you and, don't worry, it's normal.

im not sure if this is relevant .. if its not, im sorry. ><;;
ok, so i have two friends that found out that they're pregnant. [they dont know each other.]
i know that they're both planning not to keep it.
their parents cannot know that they are preg.

as a friend, what can i do to help ? what advices should i give to each of them ?

^ i think the love & relationship section would have more to do with your subject
i've seen a couple threads about people in your situation, so maybe those threads will help you out a bit.
thats always a tuff spot to be in... its hard to say what can help, you know?


yellowtutu, you may want to get a home pregnancy test just to make sure.

a friend's job is to be supportive and not judgemental, dont give her any guilt trips, but offer help (ie, they're probably gonna need someone to drive them home after the abortion, usually you're not supposed to drive home yourself). be there when they really need you (they're probably gonna want to talk, or not talk after the surgery), if the girls are strong and do not have any regrets, good for them, just be the optimist for them if they have any guilty thoughts.

plain and simple: just be a friend.

um.. okee. I just notice this week that there are very small white pimple-shape-like(round circles) around the edges of my nipple areas. I never notice it before so I'm curious...its normal? My sis say she doesn't have them.

same here...i'm pretty sure they're normal.

well for me its both.
one of my sister said it gets sore cuz its growing. everybody says that.
but my other sister said its cuz it tends to swell and become tender before your period time because of water retention

Have you ever tried Veet? It's painless.

don't know if this has been discussed, well i need some information on birthcontrol pills, perferably from someone who has taken/is on them. like can you get it for free at clinics w/o parent consent and does it clear up acne / make your breasts bigger ( my friend told me that but i don't think it is true?) and also how effective it is in controlling pregnauncy if sexual intercourse is commited. thanks.

Yes, you can get it for free at clinics (youth clinics, etc) without parent consent. It does clear up your acne but it's different for everyone. I heard of it making your breasts bigger but I guess that depends on the person. I think it's about 98% - 99% effective, correct me if I'm wrong, lol.

thanks^ for the info. i forgot to ask, at the health clinic what will happen exactly? will they need any medical information? and will they have to give a checkup by a doctor? i mean is it confidential and will you get the pills on the same day?

Usually they will ask you to fill out a form with a series of questions about your health and the health of your parents or they'll just ask you questions. They might require medical information such as what medication you're taking at the moment. I don't believe they'll give you a check up by a doctor unless you ask for it. Yes, it's totally confidential and you will get the birth control pills on the same day.

[BEBixAMY]

you have to get a pap smear before you get birth control.
they dont just hand them out. only some funded clinics give them without cost to those who qualify
so you would have to call around and ask.
and you have to be a certain age to get them without parental consent

spygirl, wax your legs! even though it'll hurt

[x_terr]

this isn't really a girl's only question, i just feel stupid if i made a new topic about this.

but, i have a really flat nose, and since the bone by your nose is soft, i heard you could mold it? so would it help if i pinched near the bridge of my nose everyday and do you think my nose would get a higher bridge?

here's a picture of my nose. and man, i think i look like a duck.

[~ BunnyliciouS ~]

^ Nah, that's a waste of time,
You can't just shape your cartilage by pinching it, it won't work.

to get higher bridge, you'll need a rhinoplasty, by inserting an implant in there to create more defined and higher bridge.

Just TRY IT FIRST,
if you want sexy smooth skin, don't be such a scaredy cat and try it.

If you're really that scared, just use Nair, it's a hair remover cream
apply the cream, wait and wipe it off, and hair's removed.

If your legs are hairy shave them.
I shave mines, and it doesn't come back all thick or anything.
Personally, I don't do it everyday maybe like once a week or something.

If you're not a fan of shaving there are alternatives.
Using: Nair, Wax and I can't think of anything right now :x

maybe it just me but i dont find waxing painful.
if you pull it quickly really fast it wont hurt, however doing it slow it hurts.
if you wanna wear the shorts you have to be prepared to try things.
