Yes, I am a guy. No, I am not gay. I am only 13, and yet I already have a moustache (spelling). I prefer not having any facial hair. My grandmother, (who is crazy) is making me shave it. How do I prevent stubble and just keep clean? If this is common knowledge, don't mock me, I'm new to this.
Stubble prevention.?
I think you'll just have to shave it everyday. Unless you want to get it waxed professionally...
Reply:hmm lets see
you know what
i like stubble
keep it
Reply:I'm sure you can scrounge up five dollars for some shaving cream and a decent razor.
If you can't, that is quite a terrible financial situation you are in.
If you seriously can't get five dollars or around that, save up a bunch of change from around a parking lot or something.
I don't think you can shave using 'home remedies' unless you use a razor blade, but gosh, ouch.
Reply:If your grandmother wants you to shave it, you should ask her if she'll get you a razor of your own or let you share hers.

Cancer prevention or treatment?
could cancer be treated or prevented by inserting an inactive cell of a scecific type of cancer eg lung cancer to prevent the future formation of it? just a theory please correctif wrong
Cancer prevention or treatment?
You are referring to a vaccine of sorts against cancer. Unfortunately, based on our current understanding of cancer this is not possible.
The modus operandi of our immune system is to seperate all cells into "self" and "non-self". So our immune system will recognise bacterial cells as "non-self" and mount an immune response against them.
Cancer cells however are derived from one's own cells- to our immune system they generally look identical to "self", and therefore no immune response is mounted.
Immunisation presents another problem. Given that every cancer originates from our own cells, any vaccine would also have to be derived from one's own cells. Furthermore, the nature of cancer is that a cell starts off normal, and acquires damage. More and more damage over time leaves a cell that just doesn't know its role anymore, and that doesn't know when to stop growing. Although there are several points in a cell's genome that are more likely to be the site of damage, there is no one genetic characteristic for all cancers, therefore not only would every vaccine have to be tailor made, but a vaccine would have to be made for every subtype of cancer- and there are thousands!
There are however, vaccines against the cause of cancer. One such vaccine is the new HPV vaccine for cervical cancer. In this case, it has been found that Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) is responsible for over 98% of cervical cancers. In particular, two subtypes of HPV, 16 and 18, are responsible for approximately 70% of cancers. This virus chronically infects the cells of the cervix and the immune system often is not able to clear the infection, or by the time it does, it is too late.
The virus integrates its own DNA into the cervical cell's DNA, leaving behind stretches of DNA that tell the cell to replicate unchecked. This optimises the conditions for cancer. So the new vaccine teaches the immune system how to combat HPV 16 and 18 infections BEFORE women are ever infected, therefore the viral DNA is not integrated into the host DNA, thereby preventing cervical cancer.
You had a good idea, and at the end of the day it wasn't the answer! But we need people like you to continue learning and asking questions- one day you might just come up with the right answer! Hope that helps!

Reply:If you're talking about a vaccine against cancer, e.g. showing an inactive cancer cell to the person that would create an immunological response in the case of a real cancer, it has been tried. I don't know of it in lung cancer, but it's been tried in melanoma (bad skin cancer). Although there have been results, they are inconclusive. As I know, no "vaccine" against cancer per se is approved right now.
A notable exception is HPV vaccine against uterine cervix cancer, which is well established and efficacious. But it's not a vaccine against the cancer, it is against the virus (HPV) that causes the cancer! You could say the same about hepatitis B vaccine that would prevent hepatitis and then some cases of cirrhosis and cancer of the liver.
In conclusion, the best way to PREVENT cancer is to eat well, not smoke, exercise, and not expose yourself to risk factors (like heavy drinking which can lead to cirrhosis of the liver and cancer).
Don't forget that 75% of cancers are directly linked and caused by modifiable risk factors (the best example being smoking cigarette)

Is prevention of vehicular pollution better than cure?
Please give me this answer now as i am iit is very urgent tome.
Is prevention of vehicular pollution better than cure?
Yes! That is why we should kill off one third of the world's population and sterilise another third. Any other methods are hopelessly inadequate and do not get to the root of the problem - too many retarded people infesting the planet.
Reply:Prevention of anything is better than having to find a cure for whatever problems it caused.. So yes of course. Cure, I will assume you mean trying to cure illness that is result of pollution? Or do you mean try to cure the pollution problem after it has already gotten out of hand? Either way, prevention is always the best..

Pregnancy prevention?
If I take birth control (yaz), and he uses a condom with spermacide, what are the statistics of me getting pregnant?
Links please?
Pregnancy prevention?
Very very very small. Birth control typically has a 97-99% effectiveness with perfect use. A condom has a 98% effectiveness with perfect use, an 82-90% effectiveness with typical use. Failure rates for spermicide are 18% for perfect use and 29% with typical use.
You are being very cautious- kudos to you!
Reply:Living large, are we?
Reply:Probably less than 1%
Oral sex is even better.
Reply:No need to send you links.....If you take your pills as directed and use condom than you are 100% protected!!
Reply:I don't have links but birth control and comdoms aren't enough!
Reply:There are WAY to many variables in that scenario for any statistics to apply for sure. Even if the stats say .00007 percent, that's only for absolutely flawless use, not typical use.
Reply:i would say 99.9% chance of NOT getting pregnant being as condoms 98% and birth control pills as long as u remember to take em 99% so keep it up and u will be fine

HPV prevention in males?
so a few months ago me and my girlfriend broke up to see other people
anyways she was with this guy for a few months and decided to sleep with him, and she got HPV, she has a form that causes cancer, she has pre-cancerous cells right now
anyways, she broke up with him after he started wanting children, which she does not want right now in life
she came back to me, we are in love, i never lost my love for her, but anyways
i told her that in this relationship, i do not need sex, i can love without sex, she understands, but sh wants to know because she thinks it will be torture on my life to not have sex (she cant figure out that lust and love are different, but i love her so... yea)
she wants to know how to prevent spreding it to me if we do end up having sex one day, yes i know condoms help 70% of the time, but i want to know if there are any other measures out there to prevent me from contracting this
thanks

God is punishing her. Stay away!
Reply:She's a whore! Wake up dude. I'm very upset with you.
Reply:Very comendable of you. Move on my man. good luck.
Reply:don't think Gardasil has been approved for men but that doesn't mean you can't ask your DR to give it to you if he says no ask her DR for it or just keep asking around someone will give it to you.
that should protect you - Gardasil is what you want. you can sign up for the study or doctors can opt to give it to other people "off license" if they wish yes they can.....
Reply:well you do know that HPV causes cancer in harldy any men,right? You do know that most males are have HPV and dont even know it? You may already have it, and not be showing any symptoms. I don't see what the big deal is, it seems like not that big of a problem, especially if you love someone. Or are you just afraid to commit and using HPV as an excuse not to get close to her?
Reply:Firstly, Gardasil is only for women under 26. Research is currently being done for an HPV vaccine for men.
HPV is very easily transmitted, and condoms are one of your only options if intercourse is what you're wanting. There are a variety of other sexual activities that are safer. You can always have oral sex (still using a condom and/or dental dam).
Always, when STIs are a concern, talk to your doctor.
Reply:At present HPV vaccine is available only for women aged below 26 years. Medical research is being made to discover vaccine for men and also for women (above 26 years of age).
Reply:the reason condoms are not 100% at preventing the spread of this disease, is the virus lives on the skin of the abdomen, the thighs and pelvic regions. even if you just showered, the viurs is there. they haven't invented a body condom yet, so you are at risk. although the incidence is small, it IS possible for men to get "urethral condolyma"---cancer in the urethra. i'd suggest talking to an STD specialist about protecting yourself should you choose to remain with her.
Reply:HPV is a lot different in males than females. I would say its riskier for women than men to have HPV. Since she has pre cancerous cells, she has HPV type 16 or 18 I think. There is a vaccine called Gardasil for women, but since she already has HPV, the vaccine might not work. They are currently working on a vaccine for men. There are 50+ types of HPV known. The most common are 6,11,16, and 18. Those account for 90% of HPV cases. Experts estimate that that over 40 million americans have HPV, many of them never have any symptoms whatsoever.

Suicide prevention: websites, useful info, quotes (to be contd.)?
Hi :-) ! Just thought this was an idea to help people... and you can gain points :-) ! Am feeling chronically suicidal (due to BPD or other way round LOL) but not always acute. These sites have helped me and might help someone else as well... would be very nice if some or other references were added.
Not to be forgotten though that it is best to go and seek help from a mental health professional if you feel at risk. If you don't dare to or if something else hinders you, this might help you out... but please get help as soon as possible!
Thanks a lot and Please take good care of yourselves!
