Question #2:
my cousin had her baby on the 20th of february, she was 34 weeks pregnant.Ava was 4lbs 3oz and still in NICU today... my question is a 2 part question for her.. first it has been almost 3 weeks and my cousins milk has still not come in.. she pumps religiously every 3 hours and is taking herbal supplements, she says she can only pump 7ml at a time...
second is baby Ava has put on 10oz the past 3 weeks in the hospital but has a hard time sucking .. she gets tired and falls asleep.. the doctor doesn't want to stress her out so they put her back on the feeding tube.. they will not let her come home until she has mastered sucking,breathing and swallowing... anyone out there have experience with premies and this situation.. please some words of advice, my cousin is really saddened by not being able to give her more milk and by her not being able to come home. also any websites i can refer to her about breast feeding for support. thanks.
Question #3:
I don't do drugs of any type, I haven't even taken my prescription pain medicine (tramadol) in a month. I had to do a pre-employment drug test today. The other day, my husband and I took like 2 capsules of damiana. A friend recommended it, said it was all-natural & has some aphrodisiacal effects. Said it shouldn't ever make you fail a drug test, but you never know. I took that 2 days ago. Will that make me fail? I mean it's an herbal supplement. Other than that, I know I'd pass, I've never done drugs in my life.
Question #4:
I would like to know what I can do to have fuller, harder erections.
Are there any herbal supplements that can help with this? Any advice at all is welcomed.
Thanks
Question #5:
I was recently pregnant with twins. However, I had a miscarriage. I began cramping and heavy bleeding on February 13. And now, my hcg levels are still at 149. The doctor has suggested the possible need for a D&C or taking cytotec. Is there a way to help it along without these procedures ie: working out, taking certain herbal supplements, or eating certain foods? Is there anything I should not do that would hinder the finishing? Ugh... I just really want this over with. And a D&C or cytotec does not sound fun.
.... I was 10 weeks and 2 days when I went to the er and they said I was going to miscarry. My hcg levels were at 11,000.

Question #9:
Im just curious what are in these supplements since Ive read they're over 50 a week for some, Which i think is nuts. BUt Im just curious. Im trying too figure out a good supplement to take to aid weight loss, with daily vitmanins and minerals Yes this may not be possible but there so many out there, Id like to research them, And even if I end up with just vitamins and minerals Id still like too see if there are any other natural herbs that Help. Plus im just curious about all these supplements since they charge ridiculous prices which Im sure can be found cheaper from no name brands at local pharmacies.
Question #10:
I Had My Baby On The 5th And He had no problem Latching On But After having Him My Milk did not come right In So He had to start using formula Because my Boobs we're dry for The first week after having him Finally After a week and Using A breast Pump every 2-3 Hours I finally Started Getting Milk I could get Him latched On But He'd Get mad because he could not really Get anything Or enough out Of My Breasts. So I decided I'd Pump so he could still Have Breast Milk Yet Every since my Milk came in I still can't Get more then An Oz In A Half Yes An Oz And A Half And that is Out of both Breast combined After pumping And storing My Milk all day So at night He gets the breast milk for One feeding. What could cause me not to be making Much milk? I have Even tried the Herbal Pills and Mothers Milk tea With No increase and tried oatmeal which I heard boost your supply But No matter what Still After Pumping every 2-3 Hours No increase and its been over 2 weeks Now. I Pump every time he eats and Pump for 20 Mins or More at a time Have been since I had him even when supplementing with formula. My Boobs never leak or seem to get engorged either. What else can I Do To try to Get My Supply Up? So He can Just have breast Milk or breast Milk for more then one feeding A day? Also Is It Even Beneficial At all To My Little one Only Getting An oz In a Half A day? Or Am I just wasting My Time and Not Benefiting Him at all? Also When I Pump I Only Get drops and Have since Day One I am Lucky If I get Even Get 2 tablespoons Each time I pump Yet i collect all the little drops of milk for him and store it tell that night when He gets His oz in a half or oz Of breast milk.
Question #11:
I used to take lactate pills to be able to consume dairy, but my body doesn't react that bad to it anymore so I don't need to.
I am however Celiac and the smallest amount of gluten, even cross contamination, will really mess up my digestion.
Will they ever make a enzyme, herbal supplement, or drug that will counter this action?
Gluten Free shopping is really expensive and at least once a week I accidentally consume something that was cross contaminated.
Probiotics, anything like that help out at all?
Question #12:
I am a mom just trying to lose 5-7 pounds, struggling to find the time to exercise but I WILL do it. I do not want a fad diet or anything like that, just wondering if anyone can recommend a multivitamin or product that is safe, natural, good for you, to help maybe just give my metabolism a bit of boost or whatever.
Thanks.
Question #13:
I WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE OUT THERE HAS USED PAIN-EZE ITS A HERBAL SUPPLEMENT
Question #14:
okay i know this is weird but i heard that there was a drug still being tested that was the female equivalent to viagra. i.e. it's easier for a woman to be sexually stimulated. anyway i was wondering if there was an herbal supplement or combination of vitamin supplements that could have the same effect on female arousal as the still being tested drug?
Question #15:
There are really no lactation consultants in my area - so even an online consultant would be helpful.
I was unable to continue breastfeeding my son due to school. I tried to pump and the pump didn't work for me and I dried up.
I miss breastfeeding immensely and feel I am doing him a disservice by feeding him formula (I am not bad talking formula feeding mothers, this is just how I feel. If formula is right for you than good for you, I just don't feel it is right for me)
Anyway, it has been almost 4 months since I last breast fed. I have Reglan - a drug to help increase supply and some Fenugreek - a herbal supplement also used to help with supply.
Does anyone have personal experience, or a helpful link or even online LC's that could help me with possibly trying to relactate?
Question #16:
Im in a Surgical Technologist school and my teacher for anatomy and physiology has a doctorate in chiropractic and then also fitness and nutrition and stresses to us different herbal supplements that could help our bodies with little or no side effects unlike pharmaceutical drugs. But most medical doctors shun away from herbal supplements and do not believe in them. He stresses that he has help people with MS and many other medical problems with no other side effects and much faster time. If they really work (which makes sense to me) why don't medical doctors use them more often. Is it because in medical school they where told that was the only right way and there ego is to big to change there mind ? Not saying all doctors are like that but some but what is your opinion on herbal and pharm drugs/supplements?
Question #17:
I am 28 Years old and I have been dating this girl for about a month now. We both just came out of long term relationships. I have been very nervous and skeptical whether this relationship is a good idea at times. Her breakup was pretty nasty and everyone in town that we are friends with knows about it. Therefore, I am nervous about "moving in" too quickly and looking bad to certain people. We have tried to have sex twice now, and both times I was unable to achieve an erection. This has bothered her very much and thinks something is wrong with me. I am extremely embarassed and ashamed. This is not the first time that this has happened to me. I have been taking Extenze (herbal supplement) for about 2 weeks and I took it about an hr before sex and I still could not achieve an erection. I am always very nervous when I sleep with new people, but I really do NOT want to be... Is it possible that I suffer from ED? Should I see a doctor about this?
Question #18:
Question #19:
Question #20:
They are all natural, so no harm, right?
My drive has done way down the tubes, just like it did with my first pregnancy, and I feel bad but I don't want to leave my husband totally out of the game. He needs sex often to be a normal person in his mind.
