GOT QUESTIONS? GET ANSWERS
********************************************
Question: My girlfriend claims she frequently has dreams where at the end,
she wakes up having an orgasm. Is this normal? Will it affect our
relationship at all?
Dr. Drew: This is totally normal. Women can have "wet dreams" as much
as
men. This is absolutely nothing to be concerned about.
Question: Is it normal to have less semen every time I masturbate? If it
is normal, should I not masturbate before sex in order to have a bigger
"load"?
Dr. Drew: It is completely normal to have less volume with each
ejaculation, and the consistency of the semen tends to become thinner and
clearer as well. When people are concerned about fertility, sometimes the
fertility doctor will ask the male to wait several days after any type of
ejaculation before attempting to conceive as a way of optimizing sperm
concentration. If you are not trying to conceive, there is no reason for
you to abstain from masturbating.
Question: I have very heavy periods and terrible PMS. I would love to make
it all go away. I heard that birth control pills can help, but I want to
make sure that it is safe to take for this before I actually take
them. What is your opinion?
Dr. Drew: Research suggests that being on oral contraceptive pills offer
health advantages, above and beyond contraception, including decreasing
your risk of ovarian and uterine cancers, diminishing the risk for pelvic
inflammatory disease, and certainly improving the menstrual related
symptoms you are describing. You have a disorder that needs to be treated,
and the pill may be the safest and most effective way to do so, provided
that you are not over 35, do not smoke, and don't have a history of true
migraine headaches. You should consult your doctor to make sure that you
do not have any other conditions that might be affected by taking the
pill.
Question: I just discovered that my boyfriend of over 2 years has been
cheating on me for the past few months. In the months he cheated on me, he
was the most intimate with me. He said he loved me, so why did he do this
to me?
Dr. Drew: This is an example of something that researchers have known for
a long time. More often than not, men actually become nicer and more
attentive to their partners when they cheat, as a way of compensating for
their infidelity. It is a difficult reality to accept that what you
perceived to be intimacy was probably not real, but instead, a show to
cover for his guilt and lack of real connection.
