I had ONE depo shot april 08' and then bleed for about 5-6 months then my periods were irregular for a couple of months and then in jan. 09 they become regular and my last period was May 23rd 6-7 days long .. i had sex june 1-7 and i was suppose to start my period june 20th...now today im a week late. June 10th i started takin adderall every other day or every 2 days...(proscribed) and i havent had signs of period nor pregnancy. what do yu think...??? pregnant, the shot (depo), or adderall %26lt;%26lt; which one do you think is stopping my period?
i have rumbling in my lower stomach what could this be...and it dont seem like gas but im not sure ...??I would just like to hear other peoples advice. besides ';go to dr. or take prego test';?
The depo shot can really mess up your periods and can even cause you to stop them altogether. Unfortunately the only way to know if this is from the medicine or from pregnancy is for you to take a test or else see a doctor.I would just like to hear other peoples advice. besides ';go to dr. or take prego test';?
Depo can stop your period. Adderall is a mixture of amphetamines used for a number of different medical conditions. It would be unlikely the Addi is stopping your period unless you have lost too much weight on it.
There is only one way to be sure: call the doctor. (sorry I know it's not want you want to hear)
im not sure
if ur late on ur period than ur prob pregnant, but the rumbling is odd to
im sry but i know you dont wanna hear this but just go take a prego test, is rly easy fast i dont c why you dont just do it??
and duh go to a doctor
Sorry but you really won't get realistic answers here, because to give you an answer we would need to be medically trained
We don't study hormones, or how different medications treat them.
And even for a doctor it would be difficult to answer your question
More than likely, you're pregnant. But the only way to be sure is to honestly take a pregnancy test or to go to the doctor's or a clinic. They are really the only qualified people to tell you if you are pregnant.
the reason ppl always say go to the dr. or take a test is that
hardly none of us is qualified to give an answer.
The only way to know is to go see a dr.
Any answer on here is just guesswork.
I had rumbling in my stomach and just found out I'm 4 weeks pregnant.
The only person who would 100% know and the only way to really find out is to go to the doctor.
it's probable the shot also if you have been working out more that will also make your period come late

Dr Frank or Nurse Rhianna - advice please! Limes disease concern?
A week last saturday I got bitten by a tick. The tick was removed within an hour or so of the bite (I also immediately went to a NHS drop in centre to check it was fully removed). No rash has has developed. A few days later, I started to get aches and pains and swollen glands and became a bit paranoid I had Limes disease. My aches and pains turned into a cold and my glands have gone down completely.
However, I did visit the doctor before my cold ';came out'; and was prescribed Doxycyline for 14 days. After taking the second tablet, I had extreme nausea and was violently sick last night. I still feel nauseous.
My question is this, should I continue taking antibiotics - I really can't face feeling so ill on them. As my concerns over aches and pains turned out to be a cold - what is likelihood I have Limes?
What would you tell your patient?Dr Frank or Nurse Rhianna - advice please! Limes disease concern?
Hi, the risk of developing Lymes disease from a tick is about 1% so the chances are very rare indeed, but I do understand your concerns. It's most likely that you have picked up a common cold and your symptoms have just coincided with with the tick bite, however although rare, falling ill after a tick bite, means lymes disease is a possibility. There isn't really a reliable test to confirm lymes disease, most useful tests are antibody detection tests.
As I am sure you are aware, the first sign of infection is a circular rash. This rash actually appears 2-30 days after infection. The rash has a sort of central red spot surrounded by clear skin that is ringed by the expanding rash. That said, many people with Lymes disease do not develop a rash.
Other symptoms are swollen lymph nodes, headache, muscle/joint pains and general flu-like symptoms. Your Doctor has likely given you the antibiotic just to be on the safe side and to set your mind at rest. Doxycycline commonly causes GI upset and if you have been sick after taking any antibiotic then really you need to contact your GP, let him know the situation and discontinue use.
He may or may not decide to give you another. Lymes disease is rare in the UK. It's more common in the US. It's best you contact your GP, he may decide to give you another anitbitoitic as the problem with lymes disease is if left untreated it can cause complications (although in most cases the immune system will fight the infection before it progresses anyway.) The infection may still be present and go on to cause problems even if symptoms have gone.
If Doxy dosen't suit you then amoxicillin, azithromycin, cefuroxime, and clarithromycin have similar favourable results in treating Lyme disease patients.
(If you leave this question open, I'll mention into to Dr Frank in case I have missed anything)
Best Wishes.Dr Frank or Nurse Rhianna - advice please! Limes disease concern?
You could get the disease when you are bitten with an infected pet .just continue your antibiotics and go back to your doctor after you finish it.
consult doctor he may change the antibiotic

I've had my period for 22 days, I've gone to the Dr and she wasnt much help. any advice ?
Please answer cause i'm like dying!!I've had my period for 22 days, I've gone to the Dr and she wasnt much help. any advice ?
Get a second opinion. There's something going on. You don't have a 22 day period for nothing.I've had my period for 22 days, I've gone to the Dr and she wasnt much help. any advice ?
Are you on birthcontrol, you might want to talk to your doctor about the brand you are on. I had the same problem. I found out that i cannot take birth control. Although most women seem to stop having periods when they go on b/c some will have the opposite affect. I was bleeding constantly on it. Right after I came off it I stopped bleeding. That doesn't mean that is the problem you are having, but that is what it was for me.
i dont know what to say is this your first period or did u skip some months did you forget to take your bith pills
i think u should get a second and third opinion, that is not a natural thing. u might have an infection....good luck.
you should change your Dr maybe you have a cut in your vagan peroid isn't more than 10 days
i had a light period for 2 months. but it was a side effect of birth control. my mom had bleeding for several months, as well. she had to have a hysterectomy as a result. i feel awful b/c i can't remember the diagnosis. one of those female organs were malfunctioning :-/ whatever the case, it sent her into early menopause.
Poor thing, its just your body is all. (I know, I hate to hear that also). I'd just saw relax as much as you can, stay actiive with activites cause it seems to maek it slow down for some people. Drink hot tea, and deal with it. Stress is a major factor to keeping the RED around.
I would definatley go to a doctor and get a 2nd opinion.
If you went to your doctor and she didn't give you a straight answer, I would seek another doctor immediatly. Something could be seriously wrong...you should have some tests done. Call and get a 2nd opinion ASAP.
I would need a bit more information on ';she wasn't much help'; if the doctor felt that it was normal for you, and you want a second opinion-GO! You can make an appointment with a new doctor, clinic or if you are not feeling well besides the period, or go to an emergency room.
ummmmm,fall down?because if you've bled that long-you're most likely dead.
Go to a different doctor. A gynecologist! Not just a family doctor. Continuous bleeding can affect your body....it can lead to anemia, among other things.
My cousion had the same problem except she had her period for 6 weeks and she went to the doctor and they put her on a birth control pill to get her cycles back to normal again.
Get a new dr. I had a gyn who couldn't figure out how to do a D %26amp; C. I found another oncological dr who did a hysterectomy (at my request, because I had fibroid tumors %26amp; have cancer in my family)
Well..I don't know if this is what you're looking for but it's kinda simular. My friend had her period for like 4 months straight. They tried birth control. One pill a day..2 pills a day..finally they did a DNC on her. That helped for about 2 days. Then it started again. They wound up having her on 4 birth control pills a day. And I promise you this..it stopped. All of a sudden on it's on. I don't want to sound gross..just blunt but she was having to wear 2 to 3 overnight pads to bed. I don't know what caused her to stop like she did but she did. So, good luck and btw, i'd have to agree with everyone else. I'd go for a second opinion.
Go to another doctor. They maybe able to help you.
you must go for a 2nd opinion. if its your first ul be sure ok. but if ur older then likely that u have major problem at hand. i cnt understand why the gyno dint say much. u must take an iron supplement with that kind of blood loss
If you are seeing a generic doc, like a family doctor, you need to switch to a gynecologist, a specialist for female problems. If your doctor is a gynecologist, you need to find another one before you become anemic. This is not normal %26amp; should be investigated.
Don't worry I had this problem beforem but I had mine for almost a year. I talked to the doctor and she put me on birth control. It not only helps with not getting pregnant but it helps to control your period too. So talk to another doctor.

Advice Please! What Should I Do About Dr?
Before I was on my hubby's insurance, when I found out I was pregnant, I called a local health clinic to set up an appointment and have started going there for my prenatel visits. I am now 14 weeks and everything just cleared with my hubby's insurance (Humana). Now that I have insurance, should I still continue going to the clinic (where I am being seen by a midwife), or continue my pregnancy at a regular Dr.'s office? What would be more practical and wise to do?Advice Please! What Should I Do About Dr?
You should go wherever makes you feel the most comfortable! If you like where you go now then stick with them. If you want to change then you are still early enough in your pregnancy that it wouldn't be a huge deal!Advice Please! What Should I Do About Dr?
Really? Humana took that long with you? Crazy, it took one visit with me...I HATE Humana...poor customer service, took me 6 months to get me my card and apparently denied assisting you while you were doing prenatal, should have taken 72 hours...oui...
That rant being out of the way, either or is fine. I am going to a mid-wife now. However, when going to a doctor's office, you may very well still get a mid-wife, which is what I am doing. I prefer going to the doctor's office, because I am seen by all members at least once and in case of an emergency, there is a doctor on staff. A mid-wife is just as certified to deliver babies, but they can't really do surgeries or anything of that nature. Do what you feel best with. If you trust and like your mid-wife, stay there. If not, shop around...and good luck!!
it depends on who you are more comfortable with. if you like who you are seeing then stay there. if you think you would feel 'safer' seeing someone else then do that. if you have co-pays on the insurance it might be cheaper to still see the midwife. but really it's all personal choice.

Dr. Martin Luther King - Respect his advice?
What would Dr King have said to multimillionaire NBA black athletes like Dallas Maverick Josh Howard who refuse to respect the national anthem, because, as he said 'I'm black. I don't have time for it';
Owner Cuban said he would talk to him about it.Dr. Martin Luther King - Respect his advice?
Dr. King respected the National Anthem as well as the United States. He saw areas where things needed improved but he also knew that America was the best place for people of all colors to life themselves up as well as each other. He was actually a very brilliant human being. G-d rest his soul.
Hope this helps...Dr. Martin Luther King - Respect his advice?
Only Dr. King can answer that question, as for Josh Howard I can feel where he is coming from if you grow up black in this country you will have a different perspective on things like this, if for most of your life you are treated like you like you are not wanted on your own country,then things like the national anthem just becomes a song with no real meaning to you personally.To black people reading this how many times have you heard ';Go Back to Africa';.Those are the things that make you feel unpatriotic.Walk in that mans shoes before judging him.
If it were a ';religious'; matter, then I could see it, to me that is just ignorance on his part. Yeah you're black, your point? If it were not for the opportunities afforded to you by the United States of America, your butt wouldn't be making the money you are now, you and the rest of the African Americans would probably still be in the fields picking cotton, or worse, dead. Just because you have a talent and ';money'; doesn't not give you the right to be disrespectful. There are three things one should always respect, 1 God and Country, 2 yourself, and 3 others.
hoos Dr. King?

Dr Phil...does he give practical advice?
I think Dr. Phil is a pompous moron who likes to hear himself speak.Dr Phil...does he give practical advice?
Believe he is in Tom Cruise state of mind, plus just loves to hear his own voice, he can be insulating at times, even Oprah has not been that badDr Phil...does he give practical advice?
no
no, he just likes to hear himself judge people
When on TV, he is an entertainer. If I were seeing him in his office and paying upwards of $100 per hour, I would want him to behave professionally and treat me civilly. I see his whole approach as an act. I don't pay attention to his advice.
Practical advice....yes, if you can afford the ';therapy sessions'; he advises most people to go to.
I used to dislike Dr. Phil strongly, LOL, but I was basing that on the fact that he is a sort of spin-off from Oprah, who is not one of my favorites (she seems a bit too self-absorbed at times, especially when she's being ';philanthropic';). I started watching his show several months ago, off and on, and honestly, I think that the advice he gives is just common sense. The people on the show are usually so far over the edge of reality that what he says can sound like the Gospel, LOL! He does seem to run into some problems, however, when people are not impressed with him or his advice and I find those shows funny (embarrassing for him, though, I would imagine).
he is a ****** and only wants to hear himself speak!
Depends on what you call practical advice.
I have never heard him say anything pratical!!
It has been reported that if one goes to a taping of his show, you have to sign a release that his advice is not a guarantee of any type of treatment, and is for entertaiment purposes only.
