| Getting the point | | 2:47pm Tuesday 1st July 2008 | | I am extremely worried about my periods. They
have dwindled away to nothing and this month
I didn’t come on at all. |
| Up or down? | | 2:44pm Tuesday 1st July 2008 | | Could you explain again about thyroid trouble? |
| Bedside reading | | 2:43pm Tuesday 1st July 2008 | | I am 21, and have a new boyfriend. One night, I opened the drawer next to his bed and found a rude novel hidden there. I wasn't shocked by that, but I was really appalled by the fact the story went on and on about girls being chained up in dungeons and whipped. |
| Womb for improvement | | 2:41pm Tuesday 1st July 2008 | | I have just been to a clinic in London, where
they told me I have something called “endometritis”. |
| Ear and now | | 2:40pm Tuesday 1st July 2008 | | I have just come from the surgery, where my
doctor has refused to give my little daughter
penicillin for her ear ache. |
| Live-in lover | | 2:38pm Tuesday 1st July 2008 | | I have just moved in with my boyfriend. This is
the first time I have ever lived with anyone. I am 20. I am really disturbed by the fact that when he wakes up in the morning, he is often erect. |
| Young shaver | | 3:12pm Tuesday 24th June 2008 | | I have a “toy boy” lover and am very happy
with him. The only problem is he has to shave
four times a day, in order to avoid scraping my
chin when kissing. |
| Low joints | | 3:11pm Tuesday 24th June 2008 | | I am 23 and really worried about the fact
my feet and knees sometimes click. |
| On the button | | 3:09pm Tuesday 24th June 2008 | | My new bloke says because I only have clitoral
orgasms and not vaginal ones, I must be
immature! |
| Doubling up | | 3:08pm Tuesday 24th June 2008 | | I am 23 and because my periods are rather
uncontrollable, I have got in the habit of using
two tampons at once. |
