Patient discussion about MEN. Q. can serious mood fluctuations be caused in young men by anything else but bipolar? My brother is suffering (well we are suffering it as well.) some serious moods. It's not like he's just upset or anything like that. He has never acted this way. It has been really hard to communicate with him lately and I'm worried. no way to get him checked, he's unwilling. We dont have bipolar in the family, well, yet. any suggestions?A. The picture you describe may result from many causes. Does he use drugs or anything like that? Does he have hard time these days at work/school/home etc? It may cause different moods. Schizophrenia may present in way similar to what you describe. a psychiatrist, because it's not really feasible to diagnose it based on your 5-lines description) may be wise, It's not necessarily bipolar, if that's what you ask.
Take care

Q. Does a women wear men's deodorant can get breast cancer? I love partying. I used to go out with my boyfriend on Saturdays to dance clubs, http://www.extendassure.com/ - christian louboutin shoes . I am crazy about the fragrance of my boyfriend's deodorant. One day I asked him to lend his deo to me for just one party. He said that men's deo can cause breast cancer in ladies. I am afraid of using it. But I could not overcome my feelings. I like to try it out once, only once. Is it true that women that wear men's deodorant can get breast cancer? (I love the fragrance of Old spice!) A. naaaa! that's just an urban myth. there isn't any difference between women's or men's deodorant. neither of them should cause breast cancer. but they both contain aluminum which is generally not good for you.
