[zenoah-zero.livejournal.com]

Is it true that splenda and soy milk can cause your hormones to go out of wack? I've been downing waist wasters soda and vanilla soy milk and i have'nt had my cycle yet (not preggers)
Just trying to find out why to eliviate stress. I did miss a cycle back when I was a teen, but Im 27 now and I have'nt had my monthly since June 19th/20th.

Shorter than normal period?

My periods are usually regular and around 5-6 days long. This time it was on time but it only has lasted 3 days. I thought maybe it was because my tampon but I took it out and there wasn't much in there either. I however recently drank a lot and got drunk the day after I got my period. Could that have anything to do with it? I got nervous cuz me and my bf had sex and the condom was on the inside of my leg when he went to take or off. Im not ovulating though and I was due for my period that day and as I said the period did start normal-heavy, red not brown or red brown so Im just curious what's going on?

fertile for how long..

[rosewein.livejournal.com]

So I'm not trying to get pregnant, or even trying to prevent pregnancy i just tend to want to know things. I'm curious how long should I be producing fertile mucus? is there an average?

Also while trying to Google this answer i discovered a page promoting Robitussin as a product to aid in increasing fertility this seems odd to me. anyone understand why something designed to remove mucus would help?

Hormonal acne advice?

[lastmockingbird.livejournal.com]

Hi there superstars!

I've been suffering from hormonal related acne since...since I've started having my menstruation. It got better when I became more conscious with my hygiene but it still persists. I would always have those irritating small dot-like pimples and lots of blackheads and whiteheads.

My OB recommended that I take Yasmin/Diane 35 but I am hesitant because not only do these have negative effect but also I've heard that once you're not on them, the acne would come back big time. Also, I am currently a graduate school student so I don't think I can bear suffering from the negative side effects of those pills from the nausea and emotional depression.

My skin has always been the source of my insecurity. I was grade 5 when I've had lots of them on my forehead. I still remember my teacher one time during class, embarrassed me in front of the class by asking, "why do you have so many pimples?". I did not know what to answer back then. I just felt so small... :(

Please help me. I am so desperate. I too want to have a clear skin. :(
