First of all im 11 (will be 12 in 2 months) and i have never had my period. About 2 months ago (today being dec 15 2009) i had brown discharge in my undies for 2 days. And when i wiped there was pink stuff on the toilet paper. Im not sure if its my period or not but i think it is because i have all the signs– i have boobs, pubic and underarm hair, narrowed waist and widened hips, more oily skin and sweat, i had a little bit of white discharge and ive grown like 3 inches. So was that brown discharge my first period? I didnt tell my mom cuz i didnt know what it was. Will it come back? And also does anyone know any good pads/tampons for an 11 year old just starting?thx for all answers and opinions in advance XD

hi im a 41 yo woman who has been experiencing ‘perimenopausal’ symptoms for 3-4 years now (well i think that’s whats wrong with me) but my main problem is the sweating which is completely disabling for me. its so bad that if i so much as answer the door i have to sit down and it takes AGES before i can cool down, i thought that the sweats were to come on randomly as a result of hormone fluctuations and not on exertion of any kind? can you help please?

My poor boyfriend! he’s been sick over a week now, and finally gave in and went to the dr on monday to find out he has an ear infection. (he got meds) During the last week, he has found himself awake drenched in sweat, then chills an hour later. Drenched in sweat, chills an hour later. and so on. Lately its been more of the excessive sweating. Now i know that this is branched from the infection, and his body is desperately trying to fight it off, but are there any ideas out there on how to stop the sweating so instead of waking up, showering and changing he can actually get rest in order to get better?
I feel horrible for him!
I usually sweat too, when i have some type of infection, but dang, i have never seen something like this. It is the first half of the night and hten the second half it finally seems to subside. Talk about the body taking over!!

Both of my brothers play multiplayer splitscreen with me. When we switch player positions/controllers, theirs are cold, almost as if they were never touched, while my brother goes "Dude, are your hands like an oven or something?"

I’ve been told that some foods cause excessive sweating, is chocolate one of them? Also, what are other common FOODS that cause sweating? Thankyou!
