Am I still protected on the placebo pills?
I take Lo Loestrin birth control, I've been on it for 3 months. It has 24 active blue pills, 2 white placebos and 2 brown reminders.
I took my last blue pill last night, and as today is my boyfriend and I's anniversary, I'm expecting to have unprotected sex tonight(stds are not a problem). Will I still be protected if I start my placebos after sex?
Serious answers please, it might be a dumb question but I need to know(: thanks!
1 AnswerWomen's Health9 years agoI can't get my puppy to walk on a leash, help?
I have 3 dogs, had all of them since they were puppies. My 2 dogs learned to walk on the leash really quick and it was easy for them.
But now we have an 8 month old Schnoodle puppy, she simply can't seem to figure it out. I have tried everything I did to teach the other two, but she doesn't get it. She stops and pulls back whenever I try to walk her.
Any tips? Please only serious answers, thanks!
5 AnswersDogs9 years agoConformation help for Thoroughbred?
I want a conformational "diagram" (like this http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/398... preferrably with an explanation of what each line means, how his shoulder and hip are, etc. If you don't want to do all that then just some comments on his conformation would be nice (:
These pics are OLD, he has much more muscle along his topline now. These are just the best pics I could find for conformation judging.

7 AnswersHorses9 years agoHow can I get my horse to stop ripping his blanket off?
He has never done this before(I've had him for 3 years), but suddenly this winter he won't wear a blanket. He has torn the liner out of his last blanket, and we can't figure out why he does this. It isn't because he's sweaty, because he is a TB and has been blanketed his whole life so he doesn't get a very thick winter coat at all; and he's clipped right now.. Plus, it's been around 0 degrees F here every night, and feels like it's in the negatives. He shivers without a blanket, but he won't keep them on! Even when he is outside during the day. He gets them off so quickly, no one can figure out how. I buckle the front straps, clip the belly straps(crossed under his belly, of course), and hook&loop his leg straps.
He doesn't get rubs from them(we have the sleezy rub guards on him because we thought maybe thats why he was ripping them off).
Any suggestions? He needs a blanket, and we need to find a way to keep them on him!
7 AnswersHorses9 years agoBoyfriend sleeps ALL THE TIME. Help?
My boyfriend never used to do this, but after a weekend with his friends where he stayed up for two days in a row, he won't stop sleeping. At first I thought well, he is just tired from the two days he was up. But he slept all day on saturday, all day sunday, monday, he was awake for a bit on tuesday, then slept again after just a few hours. Today, he has slept all day as well.
Whats up with this? It's kind of annoying to me, it sounds bad but it's starting to get under my skin just a little.
Serious answers only please, thanks!
1 AnswerOther - Social Science9 years agoFirst time having unprotected sex...?
My boyfriend and I have been together for 7 months, and I've been on my current birth control for 2 months. So today I decided it was okay to have sex with him without a condom. He came inside of me and then not long after I went pee and I was bleeding, but I'm not going to be on my placebo pills until the end of this week.
So my question is, do I have anything to be worried about? Is this normal, or..?
1 AnswerWomen's Health9 years agoIs my cyndaquil pokemon shiny?
My bf traded me a cyndaquil in pokemon black, and i think it may be shiny I just want to make sure.
So, does the fact that it kinda sparkles when used in battle mean it's shiny? I can't tell if its lighter or darker colored than usual.
3 AnswersVideo & Online Games9 years agoHorse fall.. Should I go to ER?
My horse is a Thoroughbred, about 18 hands tall. He spooked and managed to toss me off to the side when he made a sharp turn(I had lost my stirrups and didn't expect him to turn; I thought he'd stop!)
So, anyway. I fell about 6ft(top of his back is about that high) and very hard into the arena sand. When I got up right away to catch him, my legs were a bit shaky but I thought it was just the adrenaline because nothing really hurt.
A day later, my left thigh hurt REALLY bad to walk on, and putting weight on my right sent sharp pain through my lower back, near my kidneys. (Keep in mind, I already have scoliosis) I stayed home from school for a few days because of the pain I felt through walking, and then I realized my ribs hurt when I breathe on my left side. Not unbearable pain, but it does hurt pretty significantly. Also, my left shoulder is very sore and has been cracking a lot, almost every time I move it, since the fall. Last thing, my stomach hurt on the lower right side of my stomach/abdomen when I walk and sometimes when I breathe.
Today, I was walking through a store, and my chest started to burn when I breathed. It burned so bad that I had to stop and try to hold my breath. After that passed, my back got really sharp, pinching type pains in my higher back along my spine. It hurt so bad my eyes were watering and I had to stand, frozen, because whenever I moved it hurt worse.
Now, Iam starting to realize that it burns a bit when I pee, and there is a tiny amount of blood.(No, it is not my period.) Also, I keep getting these fluttery-feeling things, almost like a muscle spasm, in my stomach. Normally on the right side of my abdomen, but sometimes on the left and sometimes above my belly button.
So, what do you guys think I might have done? Should I go to the ER?
I went to the doctor, but he took no x rays and didn't even feel my shoulders or anything for any problems. He just told me to take Ibuprofen and sent me on my way.
12 AnswersHorses10 years agoBirth control question?
So, I know I just asked a question and all, but I was wondering about birth control.
So here's my questions:
Does it really start working exactly 1 month after you start taking them?
Do they normally make you have a longer than normal period when you first take them?
What happens if I don't take them at the EXACT same time everyday?
Thanks in advance!
1 AnswerPregnancy10 years agoIs this a blood blister?
A few days ago, my 1600 lb horse stepped on my foot. It obviously hurt very bad, but I could walk fine after a few minutes so I carried on as usual. But today I just realized there is like, a black spot that almost looks like a bad bruise on my toe, but its under my toenail. Is that a blood blister? If not, what is it?
If it is, what do I do about it? It doesn't really hurt at all, even when walking.
1 AnswerSkin Conditions10 years agoQuestion about restoring my iPod Touch?
If I back up my iPod, and then restore it, will it delete all my music from my iTunes(I know it deletes music from my iPod, but will they be gone from my iTunes too?)
If so, how do I get them back? I have over 900 songs in my iTunes, and I really don't want to have to find all those songs again to put them back in my iTunes..
Btw, I have to restore it because I changed my passcode, became busy and now cannot remember what I changed it to.
Please only helpful, serious, and nice answers. Thanks!
3 AnswersMusic & Music Players10 years agoWhy do I do this?(20 characters)?
I get really paranoid about stupid things, sometimes I get randomly very angry and lash out at people. My boyfriend has noticed me being really mean to him two nights in a row through text and I honestly have no idea why I was mean to him after we were fine right before. I also randomly just want to lay around and not see anyone and I cry all the time.
Whats wrong with me?
I'm so afraid my boyfriend is going to break up with me because i have these random acts of being really mean to him through text.. it rarely happens in person but it has before
2 AnswersMental Health10 years agoIt burns when I pee, and I have really sudden urges to go? I don't have an STD?
I do have sex but I do not have an STD as my boyfriend is completely clean and we always use condoms.
Anyways, I get really sudden urges to pee; one second I'll be fine and the next I immediately have to go. And when I do go pee, it burns really bad. I'm not on my period anymore(last ended on monday) but sometimes when I go there is a little bit of blood in it.
I think it might be a UTI, and I want to go to the doctor but I want to know if it was caused by having sex will the doctor know? If he does know will he tell my mom? I really don't want her to find out I'm having sex..
Also if they would tell my mom at the doctors, would just taking antibiotics like amoxicillin for a while help along with drinking lots of water? Does this even sound like a uti?
Serious answers only, please! Thank you!
4 AnswersWomen's Health10 years agoI'm so scared, could I be pregnant?
I'm only 15, and my boyfriend and I have just recently started having sex(I was a virgin prior). We always use a condom and recently we had sex and when he pulled out the condom kind of slipped off. The condom stayed like, halfway inside me, and he kind of pulled it out and checked to make sure it hadn't ripped or anything and said it was okay that it hadn't ripped.
I got my period about a week after that, so at first I thought I was okay, but then I was reading something that said sometimes women bleed about a week after fertilization and mistake it for a period, so I started getting paranoid
I've also had to pee really often lately, and I'm getting random pains in my stomach like when I take a deep breath.
My back -always- hurts, because I have scoliosis, and I'm not sure if its my paranoia or if it really seems to be hurting more now
Please help me with serious answers, I am so scared!
2 AnswersPregnancy10 years agoHow to stop my Thoroughbred from rearing?
My horse has recently started rearing. I cannot figure out why. I have very soft and quiet hands, so I know it's not caused by me pulling on his mouth.
He first reared a while ago, and it caught me off guard, plus his neck hit me in the face when he came up, so I fell. He then took off for the barn and stepped on my ankle, making a very clean break.
I think he might use rearing as a way of getting out of work now. He only rears when I ask him to do something he does not want to do. I just had a cross country lesson, and he hates jumping ditches. I was with my trainer, and Remi just decided he was not going to jump one of the ditches. He reared and reared and reared. As you can see in the pictures below, he had little to no contact on his mouth when he reared.

http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/284...
(the last photo does look like I'm pulling on my right rein, but I'm not, I think its the angle and the fact that my hand was low and kind of down by his shoulder instead of on his neck)
Whenever I ask him to do something he likes, such as jumping over -anything- but a ditch, he responds like this
http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/285...
http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/262...
Perfectly fine.
This is not only annoying, but dangerous of course. He is 18 hands tall, I didn't like how long and hard of a fall it was the last time I came off, I don't want it to happen again. I need to know how to stop this
Please only serious answers, thank you!
9 AnswersHorses10 years agoWhy does my dog run around like a lunatic after a bath?
My dog is a Wolf/German Shepherd mix, and she doesn't like water at all. In fact, she's terrified of it! She only gets a bath once or twice a year just to keep her skin healthy.
She got her first bath of the year today, and she ran around like her head was cut off after ward. Why does she do that?
11 AnswersDogs10 years agoI have a blister on the ball of my foot, help?
I've been playing HvZ(Humans vs Zombies) for the past two days, and the game isn't going to end for another 3. The only shoes I have besides flats and flip flops are my converse. Obviously, they aren't the best shoes when it comes to support for your feet when running.
Long story short, they caused me to have a huge blister on my right foot. Is there anything I can do to help it stop hurting so bad? I have to be on my feet for the next 3 days for about 7-8 hours a day, so staying off of it isn't an option.
Please only serious answers. Thank you! (:
