darlingg Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 suzannlgnz, I took Roacutane for my acne. My acne wasn't that bad (only a bit around my chin and on my forehead) but my older sister had it really really bad (her whole face, back, shoulders and chest) and so my mother send me to the doctor when I started getting acne before it got as bad as my sister had it. But i never had any side effects. I didn't even know you could get suicidal. I knew that it was best not to get pregnant while you are taking the pills (it's not a problem to get pregnant after you took the pills, my sister has 2 children now) my doctor never told me about the side effects except not getting pregnant. And Roacutane helped really good, the acne never became really bad and now I only have one zit once in a while. And my sister almost never gets zits anymore. We also have no scars from the acne. My younger sister also took Roacutane. Both my sisters and I never got suicidal tendencies. So I would take Roacutane if your acne is bad because it really helps.

whispered_envy Posted October 9, 2008 Report Posted October 9, 2008 Lately, my boobs have become all tender... I've recently started taking a stronger contraceptive pill because the one I was on wasn't working at all- do you think it could be that?
jenlee Posted October 9, 2008 Report Posted October 9, 2008 If there is no chance of you being preggers and you're not due for your period, I'd say it is the pills...extra hormones and all that
whispered_envy Posted October 9, 2008 Report Posted October 9, 2008 Yeah, there is no chance I'm preggers...unless I have really, really bad luck! Thanks for the reassurance!
KaitieL Posted October 9, 2008 Report Posted October 9, 2008 ^^ Might just be that time of the month. Mine go sensitive every now and again when I'm due for my period. They'd feel really heavy and sore.
Di Posted October 25, 2008 Report Posted October 25, 2008 Number's 5 and 10. From The Times October 25, 2008 10 things to know before buying a vibrator Should it be made of glass, rubber or jelly? What do women over 40 need? Here, essential (and amusing) knowledge By Suzi Godson 1. In 1883 Joseph Mortimer Granville, a British doctor, patented the first electromechanical vibrator. It was sold as a cure for “hysteria”, a condition with familiar symptoms, such as rapid heart rate, sexual fantasies, pelvic heaviness, vaginal lubrication, impulse purchasing, etc. 2. When portable “massagers” began starring in Thirties porn films, vibrators were branded immoral. They didn't reappear until the Sixties, long after the announcement by the American Medical Association in 1952 that “hysteria” was not a clinical diagnosis but a female orgasm. 3. In 1998 the Rabbit vibrator made an appearance on Sex and The City and subsequently became, and still is, the world's bestselling sex toy. 4. In 1999 the sex shop chain Ann Summers launched online and sold one million vibrators in the UK in the first year. 5. For obvious reasons you can't try “before you buy”, but you can watch product demos on www.lovehoney.co.uk/sex-toys-tv , and read user reviews at www.lovehoney.co.uk/ orgasmarmy . 6. Because they are classed as “novelty” items, the plastics used in sex toys are largely unregulated. A study in 2000 by Hans Ulrich Krieg, a German chemist, identified ten dangerous chemicals leaching out of European sex toys made of jelly and rubber. Phthalates that are used to soften plastic in vibrators may be linked to cancer and infertility, but reputable retailers and manufacturers voluntarily inform customers about phthalate-free sex toys. 7. If you are concerned about phthalates, have sensitive skin, or are prone to yeast infections, choose elastomer, silicone, or glass toys, or use polyurethane condoms over jelly/rubber sex toys. 8. Women over 40 need more powerful vibrators, according to the psychotherapist Julia Cole, who designed the Emotional Bliss (www.emotionalbliss.co.uk) range. With 6,000 vibrations a minute, the Hitachi Magic Wand (www.loveshackuk.com, £44.95) won't disappoint. Check the intensity of the leading brand vibrators at www.mybodyvibes.com/ guidance/vibrator_intensity.html. 9. Buy the lockable Adult Toybox Sex Toy Case, £24.99, from www.lovehoney.co.uk to keep your vibrator away from prying eyes. 10. Two million sex toys are sold in the UK every year. That's a lot of landfill, so join the Rabbit Amnesty at www.lovehoney.co.uk/rabbit- amnesty. Send them your old Rabbit and they will recycle it, give you a new one half price, and donate £1 to The World Land Trust. Yes!
