do women get heart attacks at younger ages than men?

Less than men: Less than men when young but they catch up after menopause.
Also, heart attacks are missed more in women because they may have more atypical symptoms or more stoic personalties than men.

Does breastfeeding influence women's sex drive?

Dr. Kevin Windischanswered

Yes: The horomones that regulate breast milk production can result in dry and atrophic vaginal tissue. This can markedly decrease the sex drive.
Exhaustion from around the clock feedings also can have a dramatic impact on sex drive.

A 25-year-old female asked:
My 1month old baby has gurgling sound when she breathes, its like she has phlegm, but she doesn't have cough or cold, its worst at night what could it be?

Dr. Sabina Ben-Zionanswered

Can be normal: Babies often have a congested sound because they breathe through their nose and can't blow their noses. Your baby may also have some milk/formula in back of throat that she is not clearing or coughing like adults would. As long as your baby is not having labored breathing, and it is not interferring with her eating or sleeping, treat it as just a noise.

Swelling of pelvic area in male 91 no pain?

See your Dr.: Hard to give a specific answer as the pelvic area is actually fairly large with a number of possibilities that may cause swelling. I would recommend seeing your dr. And having a good exam. Impossible to give you a good answer in this kind of forum. Good luck.

Whats it mean when a woman urinates blood and has sharp pains on the side above hips?

Dr. Vance Harrisanswered

Many causes: The most common thing is a bladder infection but there are other causes like a kidney stone (should hurt) or something in the bladder like polyps or other growths. Some bladder conditions like interstitial cystitis can bleed. See a doctor for the right diagnosis as this could be something important. Always get sharp pain checked out as well. Thats our body telling us something is not right.
