Sanitary towels for teens

I am resisting the temptation to google the Bristol Stool Chart. I know it will make me feel queasy but I'll end up doing it anyway.

I think it's advisable for anyone who notices changes in their offerings (barring tummy bugs etc) to go and see their GP. It's all about knowing your body apparently. I've spent more time in the doctors this last year than in the previous 25

i tend to be a bit 'loose' after sex, im sure i asked about it somewhere and this is normal (ish)

Thank God the poo police are not in my house. I've restarted Metformin (higher dose) aka devil tablets for 1 week exactly and have lost 1 stone ... I'm going to leave it to your imagination

Delain, dont go there with the Bristol Stool Chart. I know it off by heart through my work unfortunately and while it doesnt bother me it may make you feel queasy.

Any health professional would advise a person with rabbit-pellet poo to increase the fibre in their diet to 'move things along'. Where a diet is high in whole grains, fruit and vegetables, even those who naturally have a longer gut transit time produce faeces approaching 3 or 4 on the Bristol stool chart (the middle of the scale, rabbit pellets are one extreme). It works in pregnancy too. However, I know you always like to have the last word pigpen, and of course you have lots of time on your hands to argue that black is white. The health of you and yours is not my concern, but I do not want casual observers of this thread to get the idea that rabbit pellet poo is not only acceptable, but desirable, putting themselves at risk of diverticulosis, diverticulitis and colon cancer. Especially when all that is usually required is improving their 'highly processed carbohydrate' diet.

I think you are a little obsessed .. lol....

For those for whom this is normal, such as myself my sister and my mother.. are not at risk of anything.. but feel free to carry on.. I cant actually move off the sofa today so I need some entertaining..

(purely to add fuel to the obsession)

I also havent been since.. erm... last Wednesday I think.. as a child I used to go once every 2-3 weeks... I didnt realise that was not normal until I was about 15..

I do flush tampons, never pads or liners though. Trying to explain to DD why Tampax Pearl plastic applicators shouldn't be flushed was fun though!

Please don't flush tampons. Those who work in the water industry hate it. They don't break down like loo paper does and can cause havoc. I used to, till I met my now DH, who works designing water processing plants. He explained why we should bin them not flush them. He's probably seen more tampons than you or I would in a lifetime!

I really think you need to lighten up a bit dear

but why? As it was aimed at PP, I think its highly relevant - you only have to read PP's previous posts to know that she has suffered throughout her pregnancy with various things, so she can never be too cautious,
