I’m 47 and I’ve been premenopausal for 4 years or more, periods still are regular, hair loss during this time, yikes. Anxiety is high and weight loss going too low, which has always been a problem in my life until I went into my 40′s then my weight seemed normal..but now it’s going down along with my appetite.
Progressly to the point of every night, terrible night sweats, like I’m in a 450 oven, then chills…my blow dryer has been my best friend. No day time break outs.
I’ve tried health store products, hormone therapy nothing takes these night sweats away. Quality of life has become disabiling daily.
I surprisingly found out that if I drink alcohol at night time, like five beers, I don’t sweat. I know this is not recommend but it’s the only thing that has helped.
Has anyone experienced alcohol helping or am I being misdiagnosed…test for thyroid was fine.
done the shower thing and health food store remedies…
why is alcohol working, it’s like it takes the liquid out of my system.

Even answering about male masturbation.

I would not try to answer questions in womens health or about periods or tampons.

Is nothing sacred?

Why are they even reading them let alone answering, are they just that much inclined to stick there nose where it doesn’t belong?

Before all you women jump in there with your answers, I will add if you are a female and you answer this question too, it just proves my point that you are just too nosey, hard headed, gender confused, or just a self appointed know it all!
Some good answers so far and some ignorant ones too. Guess who all of those are from? Yep ALL of the ignorant ones are from the women.
yoohoomagoo give a very ignorant answer, so does her answer pertain to the male masturbation issues too, I guess so!
By answering she proved my point!
Guess where she fits in above?

First off, if you’re a male or immature and you aren’t going to take this seriously, and just say "Ew!", get out of this right now. I’m posting this because I want serious answers.
Anyway, I just have quick questions that I’ve been really curious about. I’m fourteen and have had my period since April of 2007. During each and every one of my periods, towards the end, it kind of stops for one day. Then, it starts again at the absolute worse times.
During the time in between its "pausing", I always mistake it for being the end and don’t wear a pad. Can anyone tell me what’s going on? I can guess, but I want an absolute positive answer.
Please no responses such as: "Go ask your mom." Again, i’m just being curious.
Also, how long can I wear a pad? I usually go about five hours. Can I go any longer so I don’t have to waste them?
By the way, are women products costing as much as almost six dollars in your areas? I don’t like paying so much for them because I go through them so quickly.

Hello people out there in the world.

I have been diagnosed with Hypoglicema(ms?) when I was 16 and Ovarian cysts the size of softballs and grapefruites at the age of 13 but had them since 11. I have been having Very irregualr periods for the past year. The doctors put me on birth control for pregnancy control in April of last year. I got off of them in Aug.2007 the same year.TTC. But never happened. I think I have Pcos. I have sharp pelvic pain and lower back pain,breast tenderness.I feel horrible and have been bleeding heavyly for like 2 weeks but all together going for nearly a month. But no period in Aug, October-Nov. Got two light ones in dec. none in Jan.through half of Feb too. Started Feb 18 and still going strong today on March 8 passing hug clots. I have trouble w/bow movements too. feel pressure when I try to pass them I go to the bathroom and thinking I have to go #2 but nothing is coming and I’m not constipated. When I told my mother what was going on she thought I was miscarrying. But the thing is I took a hpt and it showed up neg. If I was having a miscarriage it would still say I was preg. I dont know what to do. I am going to the doc. wed. March 12 for this. How do I bring up the topic I think I have PCOS? Can anyone help me? Can anyone relate to me? I feel alone in this battle. I have even had thoughts of just giving up on it all and get it removed but I want children so badly. The doctors told me if I dont concieve naturally then I would need infertility treatment. Imagine getting that news at the age of 19. When I went for the sec. ultrasound of my life at the age of 19, I wasnt able to see my right ovary. It was completely covered with the cyst and small cysts around it. I was scared. I was like wth( what the heck) is that …That isnt normal. It was the size of a grapefruite. It wasnt painful.Just scary. Then the day of my graduation just a month later, I was in severe pain I was hunched over in tears just two hours before I walked on the stage to recieve my diploma. I had to take a loratab in order to stand the pain and walk. I was severely heavy bleeding too. After then I was fine. Up until now almost two years later. I’m not hunched over yet in tears. But it hurts that bad. I felt like I had to push. I have to go to the rest room multiple times in just an hour and everytime I do I pass some kind of blood clot. Whether its small or big. Its still large amount of blood coming out and that is not a good thing for a girl that is anemic. Can anyone help me?
then why the hell did you look at it? no one asked you too? If you cant help then dont look.
I have an appt. For wednesday the 12th

A depressive episode about 9 years ago turned my mom from a relatively normal person into a religious finatic. Since then, she spends 80% of her day reading, re-reading, and re-reading the bible. She thinks she is the "chosen one" and thinks God is speaking to her and using her in mysterious ways. She speaks in tingues sometimes and sings in tongues and thinks there is nothing wrong with her all the while I think she is exhibitng signs of schizophrenia. She would frequently say, "I just saw the light". Instead of working, which a normal person would do, she stays at home in her room and in her bed all day reading the bible and watching tv, leaving her children to take care of her. She leaves the apartment maybe 2-3 times a month only when she needs to and is anti-social. Her business has been failing for years and she only earns about k – k a year for the past 14 years. She treats us like we are the government giving her a welfare check and sees nothing wrong with it. She has been on welfare but they cut it off. To her it’s a sign that "God is good" and instead of thanking her kids, one of whom has been financially taking care of her since age 18, she thanks God. She refuses to go see a therapist or a psychiatrist because she thinks nothing is wrong with her. I have done everything I could to tey to get her to find a job and get a life but nothing is working. Between the ages of 18-24, I found it impossible to talk to her since all she talked about was the bible and it was virtually impossible to talk to her about anything that had nothing to do with religion, so I was essentially on my own. I think religion is crap, makes no sense and think it’s no coincidence when people happen to "find Jesus" after a tough time in their life because people nees something to hold on to no matter how ridiculous it sounds. Although she has periods where she seems like a normal person, I am utterly convinced that my mom is crazy and don’t feel like supporting her if she is going to be an idiot and live this kind of life where she sucks the financial life out of her kids. Are there any other people who have had to deal with religious idiots in their family who think being religious means they don’t have to work? I don’t know how to get through to her and need help. I miss my mom and I hate this person she has become. If she refuses to get mental help, can I have her committed to a psych ward?

Help! I stopped the pill 3 months ago and till no period. Not surprised bc I was pretty irregular before the pill. Doc said give it time. Taken 4 pregnancy tets and not pregnant. I have been having tons of white lotion like cm the last month but still no AF (has no scent or itch). Is my body having a hard time getting to the ovulation stage? Am I maybe not producing enough progesteron? Haven’t had any EWCM yet at all. Anyone tried Fertilaid for getting periods to restart after the pill with any luck? Not trying to get pregnant so I use other protection. Thanks for answers!!
