Ibs or ovarian cancer?

I had a baby 6 months ago and during the pregnancy I had a 6,8,12,20 and 34 week scan and they checked my ovaries and they were clear. Now my daughter is 6 months old I have been getting pain in my right and getting constipation and then dioreah also a lot of stress. I have been to the doctors 3-4 times now and they have diagnosed me with IBS, I have read up online of some women who have been diagnosed with ibs only to find out months later that they have ovarian cancer…..could the fact that ive had these scans through my pregnancy rule out ovarian cancer because ovarian cancer symtoms only start showing in the late stages of the diesese?

Why is caffeine intake of concern with weight-loss diets?

The South Beach diet says "no caffeine" during phase one of their diet. What difference does caffeine make – beyond possibly adding to the stress during what could already be a stressful period? Does it really have any effect on weight loss?

How can I make my breasts larger without getting implants?

Yes, I am fully aware that the media would like just about every girl on the planet (Or at least in the United States of America) to be asking "How can I make my breasts larger?", and it’s a sad thing how companies will prey on socially-constructed insecurities to coerce women into buying cheaply-made products that, in all likelihood, won’t do a thing to their bust size and might even cause more harm than good. So please, spare me the social lectures.

I’ve recently lost a lot of weight due to stress, and despite my best efforts, I haven’t been able to put much of it back on. As a result of that weight loss, my breasts have shrunk to the bare-minimum size they could be. (Hyperbole? Perhaps. Perhaps not. Bear with me here…) And while I’m aware that a woman is much more than how much fat is jiggling on her chest, admittedly this reduction has caused a major blow to my self image. It’s somewhat hard to feel sexy when you can’t properly fill out a Junior’s Size 0.

So, rather than wade through a million "INCREASE BUST SIZE NOW!!!" garbage websites, I figure I’d come to the people of Yahoo! Answers to see if any of you have actually found something that might be able to take my girls back up to a Size A that isn’t a) implants (Because I refuse to go so far as to put myself through medically-unnecessary surgery), b) general weight gain (Because I’m already working on that), or c) a push-up bra (Because it doesn’t help my self-image that the only bras that I can fill out anymore are in the Little Girls’ Training Bra section.). I’m looking for some sort of herbal supplement that actually works, or perhaps even a way to direct what little progress in weight gain I’m making towards "certain areas".

Thank you for being mature and non-judgmental with your answers. :)

Does sleep have anything to do with weight loss?

I attend a pretty competitive high school, so there are often times i get between 5-6 hours of sleep a night due to after school activities and homework. Whenever I do get more sleep though, I feel like I start to weigh less.

I was wondering if there is actually a correlation between weight loss and sleep, or if it’s just the stress I have from not sleeping the recommended 8 hours a night.
