Dear Dr. Betty,

Hi Betty,

My question is about the vaccine for cervical cancer. I am quite skeptical of modern medicine and blindly following the doctor's orders, which I believe you are too, and I seem to have a real personal problem with accepting injections (stemming from a childhood drama). Besides my complete fear of needles, I generally do not believe the attitude we take towards vaccines such as the cervical cancer one is right.

Dear Dr. Betty,

Lately I experience cramps when I reach orgasm which pretty much takes the fun out of my orgasms. The cramps do not appear every time I masturbate but they are really distracting and the satisfaction does not set in as the sensation is not the same. The cramps feel like the ones I have while menstruating (which isn't much fun either) although I am not.

I wonder if you ever heard of any similar cases and have some advice for me.

Thank you so much for everything.

M

Dear M,

Hi Dr. Betty!

I am 22, and I have had an orgasm a few times before (thank you magic wand), but only when I let go and not think about whether I am having an orgasm. Last week I started using the magic wand by spreading my legs with my feet on the floor and I had what really felt like an orgasm, but I am confused – so many women talk about their clitoris being super super sensitive after. Mine isn’t really sensitive, after the orgasm (or what feels like it), the magic wand is still going and technically it feels good but I just want to stop for a moment. Is this unusual?

Dear Dr. Betty,

I have a condition called Hidradenitis suppurativa and it causes bumps on my groin area that then turn into a sort of keloid thing. I'm a 20 yr old female and i would like to lose my virginity but the fear of explaining this to a 20yr old boy is sooo scary.

I don't have a boyfriend or anyone in particular that id like to lose my virginity to but how do i even begin to approach this with a person? id really like to get oral sex but i fear they'll think its because I'm dirty.

Hi Dr. Betty,

A couple years ago I was diagnosed with Genital Herpes. My Girlfriend is informed about this, and we are very open about it. In an attempt to not spread this to her, She does not perform Oral sex on me. The thing is, that she told me she has a hard time getting close to me sexually because of this, She wants to and I want her to but we do not want to spread it.

Hi Betty.

I am 17 years old and my boyfriend is 22. I have only ever had orgasms from the clitoris and never from the g-spot. I really want to be able to have one and know what it feels like. My boyfriend says he has been able to give them to all his other sexual partners but just not me. Is there something wrong?

Thank you

Dear J,

Hello Betty and Carlin.

This is kind of hard to ask, hard to put into words on a computer screen with out feeling kind of foolish, but I am asking because I'd like the advise of some one who might be able to help or know where I can get help.

Dear Dr. Betty,

I have had a weird white/ light yellow pudding-like discharge accompanied by an unpleasant smell - I can't describe it except nauseating - on and off for over a year. I have no itching burning etc. Sometimes when I'm on the toilet I can actually hear it coming out of me. What do you think this is? Are there o.t.c. Remedies (I have no insurance)?

Thanks. J

Dear J,

Dear Betty,

So happy to have found your site! Am having fun and learning a lot...

Have been having an... Issue... And can't find helpful info anywhere. About three to five minutes after sex, i get intense pain from my lower butt to the back of my knees. It's kind of like muscle cramps, but different. Deeper, and no amount of massage helps. Sitting or lying down helps, and I usually fall asleep anyway, but if I have sex during the day I have this pain for hours and can hardly walk.
