Q: If I’m uncomfortable with how I smell down there, can I change it?
A: Sure, but you’re probably worrying needlessly, says Dr. Mary Jane Minkin, clinical director of obstetrics and gynecology at Yale University School of Medicine in New Haven, Connecticut. “Most of the women who come in saying I smell really bad smell fine,” she says. Still, if you’re concerned, see your gyn because strong odor (and discharge) is a sign of a bacterial infection. If there’s no infection and you’re still worried about your scent, avoiding spicy or pungent foods may help, Rosenzweig says.
Minkin often recommends an over-the-counter product called Rephresh that rebalances the vagina’s pH and makes you more fragrant. Don’t use douches or feminine sprays. Not only are they irritating, they can alter the vagina’s natural flora, which increases your risk of getting an infection and can mask an existing one.

Beyond the extensive airbrushing magazine photos undergo, the hard truth is that even if you started with a nice, tight package, child birthing changes everything. Once you push a couple of 8- to 10-pound babies through the birth canal, things down there are gonna look more like Mary Poppins’ carpet bag than a cute little change purse.
Indeed, according Rosenzweig, some women’s vaginas sag so much that they complain of discomfort while walking.
Age is, not surprisingly, another culprit. You don’t expect to look like the pouty-lipped young things in Clearasil ads when you’re 45, right? Well, just as the lips around your mouth can thin with age, so can the lips in your southern hemisphere. “Women lose fat in that area, the elasticity and tone of the tissue decreases and the inner vaginal lips droop,” explains Dr. Dolores Kent, a Beverly Hills ob/gyn and cosmetic surgeon.
But in the same way women can opt for Restalyne or collagen to fill and plump, those who want to recapture the vaginas of their youth can have labiaplasty (trimming up the inner lips) and/or perineoplasty (tightening the vaginal opening). Although some women “have their vaginas done” because vaginal changes cause medical problems or make sex uncomfortable, Kent says that 85% of the women who come to her for such procedures are worried about aesthetics. “They’ve seen the men’s magazines and feel their vulvas aren’t pretty,” she says.

Cold sores themselves aren’t dangerous, but it is possible for the virus to spread to other parts of the body.
It’s very unlikely that your baby will get a cold sore in the first six months or so, because the antibodies he received from you will offer him some protection. But if your baby is less than 3 months old and he gets any kind of mouth sore, call his doctor right away. In young infants in particular, the herpes virus can spread to the brain and other organs, causing serious — potentially permanent or fatal — damage.
When the virus spreads to the eyes it’s called ocular herpes, which is a serious eye infection. If your baby develops a sore on his eyelid or the surface of his eye, call his doctor right away. Your baby may need antiviral drugs to keep the infection from scarring his cornea. (In rare cases, ocular herpes can weaken vision and even cause blindness.)
Try to keep your baby from touching his eyes when he has a cold sore. In fact, to keep him from spreading the infection, wash his hands regularly and try to keep him from picking at the cold sore. You may want to put little mittens or socks on his hands while he sleeps.

There are many cold sore remedies out there. Some are from the realm of traditional medicine and some are based on natural medicine. Both will be explored here. It is your choice which route you wish to pursue for your cold sore
Instructions:
* If you want to get rid of cold sores you might want to check out natural cold sore remedies. One way of attacking them is to prevent them. It is thought that the B complex vitamins, especially B-12, are helpful in prevention.
* If it is too late for prevention and you need a cold sore remedy immediately, try acidophilus for a natural approach. Take 3 or 4 capsules three times a day. For maximum effectiveness start this as soon as the tingling starts.
* Another one of the natural cold sore remedies is aloe. Apply aloe jell 4 or 5 times throughout the day. As with acidophilus, start applying it at the first signs of the tingly feeling for the best results to get rid of cold sores.
* There are also cold sore remedies in the traditional medicine arena. Many of these cold sore remedies involve a numbing agent for immediate relief. The numbing does not promote healing, it simply provides some relief from the pain. Ambesol is an example of this type of product. Orajel makes another one of these cold sore remedies.
* Abreva is an FDA approved treatment or cold sore remedy that shortens the length of the outbreak.
These are some of the cold sore remedies available on the market today.

Can anal sex give me hemorrhoids?
Not as long as you’re relaxed and enjoying it, assures Ellen Barnard, MSSW, a sex educator/counselor and co-founder of A Woman’s Touch in Madison, Wisconsin (a-womans-touch.com). Hemorrhoids (painful swollen veins in the anal area) can result from excess pressure around your anus – say, when you’re really straining to go to the bathroom. But when you use a good lubricant and the penetration feels comfortable, not forced, there’s no risk of “backdoor sex” causing hemorrhoids.
In fact, some sex researchers believe tush play may actually prevent hemorrhoids. “It improves the strength and flexibility of the skin and muscles so that the anus is better able to respond to pressure, rather than bulging and producing hemorrhoids,” Barnard says.

How did my baby get the virus?
Someone with the virus — most likely in the form of a cold sore or herpes gingivostomatitis — gave it to him. Maybe he shared a cup, utensil, or slobbery toy with someone who has the infection or maybe someone with the virus in his or her saliva (whether or not the person had a visible sore) kissed him, for example. A baby can also get the herpes virus during a vaginal birth if his mother has genital herpes.
Most people get the herpes simplex virus sometime during childhood. During the first bout — called primary herpes — your baby may have mouth soreness, gum inflammation, and perhaps a fever, swollen lymph nodes, and a sore throat. (These primary symptoms may be very mild, though. You may not even notice them)
Your baby will get better in about seven to ten days, but the virus will stay in his body for life. In some people the virus lies dormant and never acts up. In others it periodically flares up and triggers cold sores.
These flare-ups are called secondary herpes. Stress, fever, and sun exposure — but not contact with a cold sore — seem to trigger outbreaks.
During these secondary flare-ups, your child probably won’t have swelling of his gums or lymph nodes or a fever or sore throat, but he will have the telltale blistering on or near his lips.

That’s the million-dollar sex question. Some researchers don’t believe in the G spot; others staunchly defend its existence but disagree about its exact location. One school of sex researchers maintains that the G spot is the glandular tissue around the urethra (found behind your pubic bone, about two inches inside your vagina). Others believe it’s really farther back, in a triangular area on the back of the bladder wall – called the trigone or T Zone – where three nerves come together. It’s probably some combination of these. But if your partner’s plucking the right strings, so to speak, does it matter which instrument he’s playing?
