Asian people have a more yellow pigment than caucasian people, not only in their skin but also in their teeth and eyes. Same with many Indian people, I have many friends who have this problem.

It's been removed but the weight is still being gained. Do I have a disorder?<br /><br />No, I would say its your hormones still being jolted around. I had the same problem with implanon. I also gained weight when I went off the pill. But if you notice yourself gaining weight too rapidly, or developing acne or facial hair see the doc as you might have polycystic ovarian syndrome....

But for the porn stars, I reckon half of them must be high in the first place!

I&#039;m a size 14 (aus) and he has dated women that were bigger than me before, and also women that were a lot smaller. He is skinny, but I&#039;d still love him if he wasn&#039;t. He is my...

In addition to a social dependence, alcoholics develop a physical resistance to alcohol, and withdrawal from alcohol can cause tremors, hallucinations, sweating, nausea and vomiting, and perhaps most worrying, detox-related psychosis which may render the person violent or suicidal.

They pay you guys? I live in Australia, and we don&#039;t get paid anything for blood or plasma. We get a milkshake and chocolate and leave with the satisfaction of doing something good for another person. Although, that said, people don&#039;t pay for blood transfusions either. Thank...

( I already thought of anxiety)?<br /><br />Well, if it is severe enough that your friend is really unable to differentiate reality from fantasy I would say paranoid schizophrenia. But if they are just generally scared of unlikely events, I would say maybe just a generalised phobia.

The uterus and the bowel affect each other due to their close proximity. It can also be related to the hormones you produce during your period.

Lipitor is a drug aimed at lowering cholesterol, so that would depend on your levels. But its quite common to see people over 55 or so on it. At least at my work.
