hemorrhoids

[misssockpuppet.livejournal.com]

this probably isnt allowed here, but i KNOW i have hemorrhoids and i'm freaking out. everytime i have a BM, i bleed slightly and i have a weird pain and itch afterwards. and this is easily explained by hemorrhoids. i'm only 19 and have never had one before, so i'm really worried. has anyone here had one and gone to a dr for it? i'm scared about the digital exam, i don't want fingers around there :( and idk how i got this. i'm just really nervous right now and don't know how to handle thinking about hemorrhoids.
thanks for any help.

btw, never had anal sex, which i know is a big thing for hemorrhoids, says webmd. i also am not pregnant (unless my body is playing tom foolery on me and giving me my period just for giggles)

natural lubrication?

[cattylina.livejournal.com]

 ....I lack it. I'm really dry and I *think* it's because of my birth control pills (I've been on Yaz for ~2 years). I'm not engaging in intercourse, so that's not a motivation for me trying to figure this out, but putting in/taking out tampons is very uncomfortable. It's not because they're not full or anything, it's just reaaaallly difficult, plus it hurts. Also, when I'm aroused I have a problem getting wet. It's like..it just doesn't happen. 

I guess one solution would be to use like, Astroglide or KY but I don't want to deal with that every time I go to masturbate/put in a tampon.

Thoughts?

lump in vagina

[sealimbs.livejournal.com]

hi guys!
i just wondered... can you get spots/pimple type things inside the vagina? i have this tiny lump thing, very small but big enough to feel when i feel around down there, but it has no head like a pimple does. it's on the labia minora. is this something i should probably go to the doctor about or is it okay to leave and just see how it goes? it's not painful, doesn't seem to be getting bigger, but i don't know how long it's been there.
thanks for any help!

is the baby coming?

[frankie4.livejournal.com]

 My sisters due date is May 4th but yesterday her doctor said she was 2 cm dilated already.  Then my mom called me at 7 o'clock this morning and told me her plug (I do not even want to think about what that is!!) came out.  I was wondering how long on average, I know everyone is different, it usually takes after this has happened for her to go into labor.  Is this to early, about 3 weeks, for the baby to be born?  She is 19 and this is her first pregnancy if that has anything to do with it being early. Thanks


THANKS FOR ALL OF THE COMMENTS, I COULDN'T REPLY TO THEM BECAUSE I WAS AT SCHOOL AND WORK ALL DAY YESTERDAY.  I DID HAVE MY SISTER READ THEM AND SHE RAN TO GET A WATER BOTTLE TO STAY HYDRATED IMMEDIATELY! 

extra long period on the pill

 Hi everyone,

( I would like some input about what's going on with my cycle right now. )

ah the yeasties

( bit 'o background )

um, is the pill supposed to come out or dissolve in your vagina?

I tried just the probiotics before for a couple days but they kept coming out in the morning so I didn't know if I was doing it right or whatever.

also, any advice on my little plan here?

thanks a bunch ladies!

after sex paranoia

[dark-deity.livejournal.com]

Last night I had sex with some I knew. We were in the doggie style position and it was rather rough. When he pulled out, he said "Where is the condom?"

Apparently, it came off inside of me. He had to reach in and pull it out.

Granted there's the scared of STDs and such, but I'm more worried by a freak pregnancy.

I am on the pill but we haven't seen each other in a while and I became less strict on taking it exactly at the same hour. One I missed it by 7 hours (forgot and went to bed) and sometimes I take it around 10p or an hour or so after sometimes (we weren't having sex for the past 3 weeks and I thought I wouldn't have sex with him again).

Is it possible to get pregnant if the condom slipped off, me being on the pill, and he had not cum at that moment (but I do know that pre-ejactulate can contain some sperm)?

I'm kinda nervous about how it just came off, but then again I do remember him having a problem putting it on.

Thanks VP!

Sex toys!

[jewliejewels.livejournal.com]

I am on a hunt of finding pictures or anything that has to deal with sex toys and other sexual things related to the Medieval era, in England. This is for my sexuality and society class. I have used google, but I was wondering if any of you can help me out on this topic. Sites with photos would be ideal.

Thanks

brown/old blood discharge?

[anamcr.livejournal.com]

So for a month now I have started running/jogging from 2 to 3 miles a day (maybe take 1 or 2  days off the week) but Ive always worked out/walked for like a year, it's just the running now. I finished my period almost 2 weeks ago and starting yesterday i started to get a 'brown' discharge which also consists of dry blood (just like when you're almost finished with your period.)

There was a post before but i really need to know what it is. Could it be pregnancy? I had a pregnancy scare 2 weeks before my period but then i got my period the exact date i was suppoused to and now 2 weeks later this...

I found a picture on the internet that looks like it just now. And its about pregnancy :(

Please help. Thank you!

My Clitoris Hurts!

[notknowhow.livejournal.com]

Hi everyone!

Here are the facts as I know them:

1) I am a 20 year old, mostly healthy otherwise, hetero-sex-active
2) about 5 weeks ago I got my clitoral hood pierced, NO complications, doesn't look infected/irritated
3) I usually consume 1/2 litre of water per hour during the work day (only know this cause i get up on the hour to refill)
4) likewise I go pee almost every hour during the work day (at the same time as refilling the water bottle)

TODAY!
1) peed the bed. Literally. Woke up and she was flowing. This is the first time this has ever happened. It wasn't even a lot of pee. puddle was so tiny that it took five minutes to clean up, didn't even soak through my mattress protector.
2) i'm peeing ever half hour, even though i've consciously decreased my water intake, and didn't have any caffeine today.
3) beginning about 3 hours ago, every time I go pee, right at the last moment, i get a very painful pressure-like pain in my clitoris, right to the root of it. I payed attention and the pain is not it the hood, or in the urethra, but it feels like i'm purple-nurpleing my actual clit.

I don't have any pain in urinating aside from this, no burning, and i have no pain in my 'bladder' area.

Any ideas what I might be dealing with!? Thinking a doctors appointment is due in the next 24 hours, but i really don't wanna wake up to a wet bed again tomorrow morning...
