Q: my child still wets the bed at 12. why?

Primary enuresis: It is believed that enuretic children have delayed cortical maturation for voiding control, are deep sleepers, and often have positive family history. Seek a medical attention. Oral DDAVP (desmopressin) and bedwetting alarm are options available.

Q: my almost 2 year still drools alot. why?

No social conscience: A two year old is the king/queen of their universe & unrestrained by such things as a social conscience. They are seldom worried about what they wear or whether their hands, face etc are dirty or covered with drool. Can they be teething ? Yes. Can they have sores in their mouth?Yes.Can they go about their day unconcerned about the drool? Certainly!

Q: im 40 in march, can i still have a baby?

Yes,but: Some would encourage you to consider the issues involved. At 40 you reach a point where the risk of a Down syndrome birth has increased to about 1% but all pregnancies have about 4% overall risk of some unexpected outcome (cleft, premi, sickness, etc.) the risks are there for all to some degree. Mom had a happy outcome at 42 ; many have them later. Discuss with your doc ; follow your heart.

Q: at 34 i still a small manhood like a kid ?

Doctor can evaluate: One's primary care doctor or an endocrinologist have experience with the normal development of boys to men. If truly a small penis, one concern is whether or not there is low sex hormones. Sometimes, a smaller penis is normal or may run in the family. Chromosomal analysis is sometimes done to see if there is a genetic cause. The doctors usually can come up with a diagnosis.

Q: 5 months after removal and still not pg..??

Removal to what?: I am guessing you mean IUD but perhaps an implantable contraceptive like Norplant (levonorgestrel)? On average it takes 6 months for couples not using contraceptives to conceive a baby and it is generally thought there is no need for any medical evaluation until you go a year without success. So take a good prenatal, eat a healthy diet, relax, time intercourse to the 2 days before ovulation and have fun trying.

Q: i am 65 and still have a cycle is this normal?

Needs evaluation: At 65 most likely menopause has occurred. If you are bleeding after menopause then evaluation from an Obgyn is definitely warranted

Q: is it ok to still have an occasional cigarette?

Still unhealthy: You are asking a question similar to "is it ok to ingest a little bottle of poison versus a large bottle of poison?". Cigarettes contain toxic materials and are not healthy to smoke.

Q: could a closed vsd still cause these "defects"?

More info needed: Are you having symptoms or problems you believe to be a result of a vsd that was closed? A vsd may cause problems due to excess blood flow through the lungs, or due to dilation ("stretch") of left sided heart structures. Closure of the vsd, if early enough, reverses these problems, but if closed in adolescence or adulthoot, some problems may not disappear. Many factors contribute.
