I have read that gaining weight is an issue as you reach midlife, especially around your waistline. Is there a medication that can help with this situation? What is it? What are the side effects? Laure - Cedar Rapids

I am 25 years old and my husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for over 6 months with no luck. My OBGYN has no openings for me until mid Sept...but I have a few questions. After I stopped taking the pill, I had normal periods for three months. Then, one month I got periods every two weeks (2 in one month). The next month I only got one light period. I took two home pregnancy tests thinking I was pregnant, but both came back negative (taken on different days). Should I wait to see if I get my next period, or is there a possibility I am pregnant? Also, I am on atenolol for high blood pressure. Should I stop taking this? jess - iowa city

I have a lump when I do a sit-up after childbirth on my abdomen. I think it may be a hernia? What type of specialist would I see for this? And I have heard some people get a tummy tuck done at the same time? Andrea - Cedar Rapids
