  1 0 you can actually get a one pill method at PPH and you can actually use both up to 5 days later. Ella is more effective 5 days later while next choice decreases in efficacy but can still be used 5 days later. you need a prescription for Ella not matter your age but not so w next choice. go to planned parenthood and if you dot have insurance it will be the cheapest option.

  What is my bus schedule tomorrow?

  0 0 This is what the email I got said: "Because of persistent icy conditions, Community Transit will provide limited commuter and local service on Jan. 19. Downtown Seattle and University District commuter routes will operate first and last scheduled trips, except for Route 414. Route 414 will not operate. If possible, additional trips may operate in between. Local service will be limited Jan. 19. Buses will operate on every route, but they may not be on regular schedule due to conditions. Local bus routes will operate the first and last scheduled trips. Other than that, buses may only operate every hour or every two hours, but there could be even longer periods without service. Regular Community Transit 40-foot coaches will operate on the Swift route. Swift is scheduled operate on its Saturday schedule. For the morning of Jan. 19, Sound Transit will operate its Sunday Route 512 schedule, with an additional trip at 4:55 a.m. The Route 512 trips will include a sign to remind passengers that the Route 512 will replace Routes 510 and 511. Sound Transit also will operate the Route 535 on its Saturday schedule with additional trips at 4:48 south from the Lynnwood Transit Center and 5:45 a.m. north from 10th & 102nd. Routes 513 and 532 will not operate. Route 532 passengers wishing to reach the Eastside can take Route 512 to the Lynnwood Transit Center and transfer to Route 535."

  0 0 You're right, BV is caused when the balance of "bad" vs "good" bacteria is thrown off and the bad bacteria take over. If one lesbian partner has BV it's very common for the other partner to have it too, suggesting it's sexually communicable. K commented about 1 year ago

  0 0 It's fair to ask even a random hookup when they were last tested and if they were negative, remembering that people lie or are just misinformed. From there you make your own risk-based decision. If your fingers have her vaginal secretions on them, not a good idea to then put those fingers in your vagina. Put a condom on that toy before she uses it on you then change condoms before you use it on her. I think it's reasonable to use gloves at any point but I'm not a lesbian. I'm just a provider who tries to give my patients all the information so they are empowered to make their own sexual health decisions. You should read sites with good, honest information about STIs so you know what the signs are and how they're transmitted. Talk to your nurse practitioner/midwife/GYN about this. S/he will have a ton of great tips and resources for you. If s/he throws you shit for your sexual practices or you don't feel comfortable with them find a new one. It's an important relationship. And remember, just because you're not having sex with men you still need a pap and pelvic exam, or at the very least a pelvic exam every year. K commented about 1 year ago

  Practically, what is safe sex for lesbians?

  0 0 The STIs that can be transferred on hands, toys and via mouths are hpv, yeast, chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes, trichomonas and bacterial vaginosis and rarely HIV. A lot of this depends on the type of sex you're having (oral, with toys, etc), skin integrity (cuts, sores, active lesions, etc) and with what kind of vigor it is taking place. What I see most of in my clinic (I'm a nurse practitioner/midwife) with my lesbian clients is bacterial vaginosis, chlamydia/gonorrhea and trichomonas. I counsel my patients to get tested as well as their partners and to use dental dams, gloves, everyone have their own toys or use condoms over them and changing the condoms between partners. If both partners test negative, are openly communicative and practice basic safer sex guidelines they generally have good outcomes. Hope this helps.

  What is the going hourly rate for a part-time nanny?

  0 0 Depends on where you live, how much experience they have, what extra duties you want them to do and if they're a certified nanny or not. When I was a nanny 2 years ago for a couple in greenwood I had 2 years of infant care experience and was in nursing school. I made $15/hr under the table. That's what they offered me and I took it. I also did all of the baby's laundry, sheets, towels and did some light meal prep occasionally. I was reimbursed mileage and for outings (aquarium, zoo, etc). For 12 hrs a week and just straight making sure the baby doesn't die and nothing else I'd offer $12 and be willing to go up to $13. If it's the 16yo next door pay her $10.

  1 0 My father died and *did* leave a will and it was miserable. A lot of it was my poor mother having to go from bank to bank and calling different places to figure out exactly where everything was and to get everything in her name. If my dad hadn't left a will it would've been 100x's worse. Leave a will and your heirs will thank you. K commented about 1 year ago

  blisters under my breast - how to treat/prevent?

  2 0 You might consider the possibility that this is a yeast (fungal) infection. Under the breasts is a classic place to get an infection, especially after a history of a day spent being warm/sweaty. I would hand wash the offending bra with a mild detergent or handsoap (like Ivory) and try an over the counter antifungal cream (like monistat) to see if that clears up the lesions. However, I second the other ideas about checking to see if the underwire is starting to come out. Sometimes it can start to poke out before it actually comes out.
