Most people learn the basics of making a baby — what goes where — at a pretty young age, but there's a lot more to it. The simple act of conceiving isn't actually that simple; there are numerous factors that can either increase or decrease a couple's chances. Whether you're trying to get pregnant — or trying not to get pregnant — knowing fact from fiction when it comes to conception is Read more
Where do babies come from? This simple question, asked by almost every inquisitive child at some point, can render the most composed parent, a stammering fool. In itself, that one question isn't so terrible — it's what it signifies: that a sweet, innocent lil one is growing up. This is the moment where parents really wish they had put a little more thought into how this conversation would take Read more
Strange sex facts are a great way to show your smarts in, well, very few situations. But you're in luck, because this is one of them. See what you know about some of sex's strangest, and most fascinating, questions. Photo by Flickr User margolove Take the Quiz Read more
Well, this wasn't exactly the most unbiased survey, but it certainly was comprehensive: the Stranger, Seattle's weekly alternative paper, asked 6,942 people their secrets in the bedroom, out of the bedroom, and in their dreams. Since one-third of the participants came from outside Washington state, I'm going to say it's close enough to represent what most people are doing — close enough for a Read more
The annual Pap smear could become a relic if a new DNA test proves as effective as promised. According to a study published last week in the New England Journal of Medicine, a new screening involving DNA could be better than all other tests in detecting HPV and cervical cancer. For women over 30, the test would only have to be performed every three, five, or 10 years, which would mean an end to Read more
We have sex to feel connected to our partners and to express our love, but for most of us, the main reason we're getting it on is for the amazing rush of pleasure we feel once we reach orgasm. It's an indescribable feeling of bliss, but have you ever wondered what happens to your body physically when you climax? If so, then keep reading. Once a woman becomes sexually aroused, her heart begins to Read more
If you're prone to yeast infections, and you're a fan of using personal lubricant, then you probably found my Lube Quiz very helpful. It showed you which lubes contain glycerin and which don't, but I recently noticed another ingredient in some water-based products that I thought you should know about — propylene glycol. To find out if this is something to avoid, read more Read more
There are a plethora of birth control options out there so men and women can enjoy sex without having to worry about becoming parents before they're ready, but sometimes a couple has an "oops" moment. Whether it's because the birth control wasn't that effective (like the Pull and Pray Method), or something went wrong with it (like the condom broke) the result could be an unwanted pregnancy. To Read more
I really get a kick out of the pregnancy myths floating around, like you can't get pregnant if you pee after sex, two condoms are better than one, and, of course, that you can't get pregnant while breastfeeding. A good friend of mine actually had to learn this one the hard way — she got pregnant while nursing her 10-month old son! Using breastfeeding as contraception is known as lactational Read more
If you're like me, you don't give your cholesterol much thought. I always thought your cholesterol levels were based on whether or not you ate a lot of high-fat foods like cheese, meat, and ice cream, but you can also inherit high or low cholesterol from your parents. And I also just learned that taking birth control pills can affect your levels too. To found out how, read more Read more
