Q & A

. I am considering going on birth control pills to regulate my period. When I go off, will my period be more regular?

.
I'm 62 years old and have been taking hormone therapy for about 15 years. If I stop, what will happen?



. I think something is wrong with my 12-year old silicone breast implants. They might be leaking. Should I consider explantation?

. I recently got an email that warned about asbestos and dioxin contamination in tampons and the risk of Toxic Shock Syndrome. Should I be concerned?

. I have breast implants. Do I need to take antibiotics before going to the dentist?

. I read in an email that antiperspirants cause breast cancer. Is this true? Are they really unsafe?

. I currently work for an employer that doesn't provide health insurance. My children often need medical care, but I can't afford health insurance for them. Is there anything available?

. I know I can get Toxic Shock Syndrome from wearing a tampon, but what exactly is it? What are the symptoms?

. Would having breast implants increase my risk of breast cancer?
