?

I'm only 5 foot tall and I feel like I'm too short. everyone in school towers above me and I feel so self conscious. is there I chance I could possibly grow a couple more inches? and I was adopted so I have no idea how tall my real parents are and theres no way to find out. how can I accept my height. I'm tiny overall. but I am pretty fit. I'm 5 foot and about 100 pounds fyi.

I started having periods when I was 12 and a half. they were always regular and on time like clockwork, every 28 days I would get my period. I never had to guess when it would come, i would know exactly when to expect it. now, at 17, my period has been a little irregular over the course of about a year. it has been slightly irregular, sometimes they would come late, like 2-5 days late. One period was 17 days later than the expected arrival! but now my average menstrual cycle is about 32-33 days. what may have caused this change?? is it something to be worried about and talk to a doctor? please help. thanks !!

sometimes when I have a dream ill get an orgasm and it feels so real that I don't knw whether its actually happening or if its all in my mind?? does anyone have similar experiences? I'm a 17 year of girl btw

I feel like I'm always thinking about sex and have sexual urges. I watch porn a lot and masturbate sometimes. Is this normal for my age? Why am I like this though? Please answer respectfully. Thanks!!!

I am a 16, almost 17 year old girl who's single and lately I've been noticing that I've been feeling really horny a lot lately and having a craving to have sex and lots of sexual urges. I really don't know why... And it's always so random, like at the most random moments. when I'm in my bed, all I think about is sex, and I've been watching a lot of porn, masturbating, and looking up a lot of stories questions and information about sex. It's driving me crazy and I feel like I can't get rid of or crave my sexual feelings. Is this normal? What's causing me to feel so horny, and what should I do to feel less like this? I don't mind being in a romantic sexy mood sometimes, but it's too much!! please help :( thanks!

I started my period when I was 12, and for about 3 years, its been exactly on time every single cycle.. every 28 days. It was super regular. I am now 16 years old, almost 17. But all of a sudden, , for the past 5 or 6 months, its been irregular, and coming a LOT later than it has ever been. Its now around 35-40 days every cycle opposed to when it was 28 days each cycle. Its longer now and I don't know why this is happening. I will add that I have been really stressed out and dealing with a bunch of drama and stuff At school and everything, and I run a lot. I eat normal, and I'm not excessively skinny. I'm about 100 labs. I have mental illnesses and brain chemical imbalances, if that info helps at all.... what could be wrong with me? Should I go to the doctor about it? Please help, thanks!

So I m a 16 yr old female and I wanna know what being high really feels like and how long it lasts? Can anyone describe their personal experiences being high? How does it feel physically, mentally, emotionally?? What s the safest way to get high? What things give off the best high? Any tips for first - timers? Please note I do not plan on getting high every day, I just wanna try it out and see how it makes me feel. I don t wanna put myself in too much danger so what s the safest way?? And I have depression and I m bipolar and I have mood disorders and I do currently take meds for these issues but I feel like I want something more.. Something that ll make me feel different, good, intense.. I want to feel what everyone s talking about when it comes to getting "high". I want to try out something new. Please help!?!!! Only answer if you ve been high before, and feel free to share your personal experiences being high, it d be greatly appreciated!! Thanks :)

so im supposed to get my period very soon but i keep having really achy pains in my lower stomach , feel like im gonna get sick and throw up, and ive noticed that im super moody and im really annoyed at everything.. like literally anything with a face i just wanna punch i feel so irritable, tired, and sick. and im craving chocolate sooo bad! Lol. is this just pms or am i just crazy?

What should you do if you get raped and face an unwanted pregnancy ? Would it be okay to get an abortion? Since it wasn't my fault and I'm so young and can't possibly have a baby and raise it ... :( or would I have to give birth even under this terrifying situation? Someone please help me. I need to know what the right choice is and I can't decide by myself

Hi. I'm a 16 year old female. I am having trouble gaining weight and looking more like a mature adult. I am so sick and tired of still looking like a kid. Seriously! Everyone in my grade (sophomore in HS) looks so much older, attractive, and mature. Also everyone TOWERS above me. Literally everyone. I am probably the smallest person in my SCHOOL. Everyone who meets me says i look like im 12. My breasts are too small, i look like an awkward 6th grade girl. :( and i have no curves at all. I am fairly skinny, i am 5 foot and 92 pounds. I just want more than ever to not look "skinny" and "childlike". i want that mature figure. I want to still be skinny but i want some natural curves and bigger, fuller breasts so i look and feel older, more mature, and confident/happy. I just feel like im growing up and i need to start looking like a mature young adult. i am absoltely DONE with being a kid. I cannot stand it when someone says to me, "oh but youll look 20 when your 40! You should be happy about that!" it makes me so upset to the point i cry and start hating myself. I do not care about "when im older". I care about NOW. All i ******* want is to look older!! Am i just a late developer? I feel like ill never look like an adult. I want to be perceived as older. After all, im 16. I should look like a beautiful, confident young woman, not an awkward young kid. How can i look more older? How can i gain more weight/muscle so i can "fill out" and look older? Please help...

so i am a 16 year old female currently experiencing some hardships in my life. I have some things i have to work on to get my life back together. I'm a "work in progress". But i do have many strengths. I am decently good looking, i do very well in school, i am very thin/fit and athletic. But i just feel like i am not getting the most out of my life. I currently have like one friend, that's it. But she's my best friend. I am currently unemployed, have not gotten my permit yet but i have been vigorously studying for it. I am in no clubs/activities, and i participate in track, but thats not until the spring :( i just feel like i need to start living my life and start doing productive things. I just have a very boring, monotone lifestyle. I go to school, come home, sleep, so forth and so forth. I seriously have no life . I'm a very motivated strong and smart person and believe me, i want to start living SO BAD. But i just don't know what to do? All the kids in my school are really bad and they do drugs/alcohol they just aren't very good kids and they've got nothing going for them. so its out of the question that i start making new friends within my school. but i am not like that. i want to graduate, get into a prestigious four year college, and have an amazing family and live a good healthy happy life. that is all i will ever want. I'm just a teen and i need some advice on how to just get through high school. any advice/stories feel free to share :) tysm <3

I'm a 16 year old female and I have been thinking about having sex with one of my really good guy friends. We are really close, but we aren't officially dating. we are supportive of each other and we both feel really comfortable with each other. I like him a lot, and I keep having dreams about where him and I have sex. I love him as a friend, he's such a great guy!!! but... I really like him, in a romantic, sexual way. And I can't decide if sex is right for now. I want to have sex because he makes me feel so good like no other guy, & he gives me such amazing, special, happy feelings. he's very attractive. I'm questioning it b/c I don't want to ruin our friendship , or make things weird. Also, I don't wanna risk getting an STD/getting pregnant. I know he can use a condom but I'm so scared it will slip off, break, etc. and I'll get pregnant . I can't get pregnant, my life will be ruined forever. I want to experiment with him and do things with him so bad, I'm so emotionally attached to him that it's like if I don't have sex, I'll feel like I'm missing out and not getting the most out of him.he's mentioned a few times that he was interested in having sex too but not as strongly as me. Btw I'm a virgin and he's never hooked up with a girl before. Also does it hurt your first time? please answer respectfully and truthfully. Is it really worth it? Do you think I should? Pros? Cons? Feel free to share any experiences (if you have any) and give me some advice about this. Thank you!

Hi. So my mom recently told me that I am going to have my first GYN appointment soon. I'm really nervous about that. I've never been to one before! Btw I'm sixteen. What do they usually do when you go for the first time? What should I expect? I don't see why I have to go. I don't have any reproductive/period problems. My cycle is pretty regular and so are my periods. But I can't convince my mom to not make me go. :( what should I do about this? Are these kind of appointments weird?! Idk I just think it might be awkward because like from what I've heard they look at your vagina and stuff like that but I'm not totally sure. Any advice for me?? thanks

So I ve had this extremely sharp painful uncomfortable pain in my upper stomach for about a half hour now and it s not going away... Infact, it s getting worse and more painful by the minute. It hurts soooo ******* bad and I need relief! :( like I m doubling over in pain, can t eat, breathing heavy, about to cry because the pain is so substantial, it s literally unbearable, I feel like I m going to throw up, and I m getting really worried / scared .. What if it turns into something fatal? What if something bad is happening in my body that s causing this pain? I actually feel like I might die... Like I m not even joking. I m dead serious. I m really scared. I think I should go to the ER because I m worried and I have no idea what s going on. I need help....??!! :( should I go to the ER and get checked out? Maybe Because I don t want to wait before it s too late and damage is done... I feel like something s going terribly wrong in my body but I don t know what it is. :( I want to see if there s a problem so it can be fixed early on before it becomes drastic!! But I m so scared to talk to my parents about it and ask them to take me to get checked out.. Help?! Does anybody have any advice for pain? What should I do? Should I go to the ER? Please answer ASAP I m worried as hell right now .. Thank you so much

I'm 16.im female. I'm 4 '11 and 94 pounds. Am I overweight?!!!!! Am I too short for my age? My body fat is 14.1 which I think might be too much for a teenager. Teens at puberty usually become muscular I heard. So why the hell am I so fat? I don't even have abs. :/ I want abs. My diet is good and I run, bike, swim, play field hockey, volleyball, tennis, and gymnastics. I just want my six pack to show. What should I do? It only shows when I flex. I have a strong athletic body but I think I need to gain muscle. I'm too fat. Help!!!!!!!

so I was at a track meet and I got my period and it was really heavy and I bled through my track shorts and I'm sooooo embarassed. I've had my period for 3 years now but I'm still not used to it. It grosses me out, my stomach always get cramps, it's annoying as crap, and it's generally not a good experience. And I was leak, even when I used a pad. Do I have a medical problem? I am soaking like 3 pads an hour and I'm worried. Also I am embarassed about my period. I know I'm a girl and every girl gets it, but it's just so embarassimg to ask my friends or teachers for supplies when my period comes unexpected. How can I feel more confident about my period, and do I have an issue with the amount of blood I'm losing??! Helpppp

I'm 15, 4 '11 and 96 pounds. That's WAAAYYYY too much and it's disgusting and ugly to the point where I'm really upset with myself and I hate myself and can't wear a bikini without feeling awful and compare myself to skinnier people. I haven't had any major growth spurts at all. I had my first period at 12 and a half years old but I've never had any growth spurts in puberty which makes me so mad. I'm either gonna have to get taller so I even out, or lose weight, not too much maybe 10 pounds. how to get skinnier?!? And I eat , don't worry, I'm not anorexic lol. but seriously, how can I get a flat stomach and get skinnier and lose those 10 pounds?!

I'm absolutely terrified of my period and embarassed. I feel gross, uncomfortable around people, and so sad during my period. And it hurts too. My belly hurts during my period and I feel so achy and tired and miserable and embarassed. I was in school and I realized I had my period and the flow was heavy and I got blood all over the seat and my teacher gave me a weird look and so did people in my class and I had to walk around with blood all over my butt. I hate my period as it causes many problems emotionally and physically. Why does this happen to me? How can I feel more confident about my period ? Please help :/
