Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Buy a calendar. Mark the first day and last day of your period on the calendar. Note important details of your period on the calendar. Repeat every cycle. Determine your period cycle. Predict when your next period will begin.

Answer: One of the easiest ways to hide signs of your period is knowing when your period will arrive. Find a small wall calendar or desk calendar that you can keep at home. Make sure it is a 365-day calendar. You will use this calendar to track your cycle so that you can be prepared. An alternative to a physical calendar is an app that you can purchase on your phone. If you have ready access to a smartphone, consider finding a period tracking app that can help remind you when your period is expected to begin. At the first sign of your period, note it on the calendar with an X or a red checkmark. Make the same mark on the calendar on the day that your period has concluded. This will help you figure out how long your cycle is and will help you estimate when your next period will arrive. Most periods last 2-7 days. Keeping a menstrual calendar is also useful to women who are interested in getting pregnant or in avoiding pregnancy since it will help you determine when you ovulate each month. These details include the rate of your flow (light or heavy), changes in the period's texture (such as clots), and whether you experience other period symptoms such as cramping or tiredness. All of these details can help you determine the supplies you need each month and when you will use them. These details might also be useful information to share with your doctor if you notice any significant changes to your cycle. Period calendars work best when you keep them consistently and regularly. The more exact and careful you are, the better. Remember that having knowledge about your body is the best way for you to get comfortable with your period. Count the number of days between the start of your last cycle's period and the start of this cycle's period. For most women and girls, their cycle will be between 21-34 days, with 28 days being the average. However, a period cycle can be quite a bit longer than that, up to 45 days. Keep in mind that many girls who have just begun their periods will take a while before developing a consistent cycle. Many girls who have just started menstruating have irregular periods for a year or two. This is normal. Note that period cycles can shift over time and in various situations, even for women who usually have regular periods. For example, some women notice changes to their cycles when they are stressed out, traveling, or in the company of other menstruating women. Often your period cycle will return to normal afterwards, but sometimes your cycle can make a lasting shift. Your calendar will be able to help you sort out the differences between a temporary change and a permanent change. If you have a consistent cycle, you will be able to predict the day that your next period will arrive. Note these days when you expect your period on your calendar. On these days, be extra sure that you have extra period supplies such as tampons and sanitary napkins ready. Remember that it is not safe to use tampons before your period begins. You can, however, use a panty-liner or sanitary napkin on days when you expect your period to arrive any moment.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Apply warm compresses. Employ an oil on your skin. Administer lotion to the affected skin. Consider using acetone. Exfoliate the affected skin. Seek medical treatment.

Answer: Putting a warm compress on the affected area may help soften your skin, making removal of the super glue easier and potentially less painful. Warm up one glass of water to a comfortable temperature that won't burn your skin. Dip a soft cloth in the water and put it on the affected skin. Hold the compresses on for 30 seconds before trying to remove the super glue. You can use a variety of oils to help remove super glue from your skin. From vegetable to almond oils, these may help get rid of super glue residue on your skin as effectively as petroleum jelly. You can use any type of oil including vegetable, olive, almond, baby or mineral oil. Pour the oil on a piece of cloth or gauze and rub it on your skin for a couple of minutes. Make sure to be gentle so that you don't further irritate your skin. Lotions may also effectively remove super glue and its residue from your skin. Apply a small amount to the affected area to begin getting rid of the product. You can use a cloth or your hands to apply the lotion to the affected skin. Gently rub it and it should easily peel super glue from your skin. You can use most types of lotion, though emollient hand lotions may be the best and most gentle options. Many people have successfully removed super glue with acetone or nail polish remover. Be aware that while this can effectively get rid of super glue on your skin, it can also irritate your skin, and should probably only be used when other methods don't work. Do not use acetone anywhere near your eyes or mouth. Only use acetone on smaller skin surfaces that have super glue. Use a nail file or skin buffer to gently exfoliate the affected area. This may also remove stubborn or lingering super glue on your skin. You can use nail files or emery boards, or even skin exfoliators such as loofahs. In addition, simple table salt can work as an exfoliant. Wet the area with water and rub the salt into the super glue until it forms a paste. This can help loosen the glue and lift it from your skin. Be as gentle with these products as possible, as they are likely to irritate your skin from repeated rubbing. If you are unable to remove the super glue from your skin after repeated treatments, seek medical treatment as soon as possible. This can help prevent infection as well as remove the lingering adhesive from your skin. If you skin shows any signs of infection or severe inflammation, see a doctor immediately. You should also see a doctor immediately if you get super glue on or in your eye, or in your mouth.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Determine helmet shape. Wrap the flexible measuring tape around your head. Read the measurement off the tape.

Answer: You should consider helmet shape before measuring for helmet size. This is especially important if you are looking for a motorcycle helmet. There are three main types of shapes, which are long oval, intermediate oval, and round oval. The helmet shape matters for most helmet types, though it is more important for motorcycle and riding helmets. Long oval means that the shape of the head, and helmet, is longer front-to-back than side-to-side. Intermediate oval means that the shape of the helmet will be slightly longer from front-to-back than from side-to-side. This is the most common shape. A round oval shape is one that is almost equal from front-to-back as it is side-to-side. You should position it just above your eyebrows. Make sure the measuring tape lays flat against your head but doesn't pinch. It should be level all the way around. Doing this on your own is a challenge. Ask a friend or family member for help, or use a mirror to help you level the tape. If you're measuring your head circumference on your own, cross the ends of the tape on the front of your head to make reading the measurement easier. Take several measurements. The largest measurement you take is the measurement to go by. Write down this measurement so that you will remember it when it comes to choosing a helmet.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Choose an essential oil. Prepare a Neti pot solution. Irrigate using a Neti pot Use a nasal saline spray. Use a diffuser.

Answer:
Whether you use a diffuser or the Neti pot, you can use the distilled essences and fragrances (aromatherapy) of various plants to help treat your sinus infection. The essential oils used most commonly for sinus infections are: Eucalyptus Menthol Lavender Sweet basil Oregano Rosemary Peppermint Tea tree Rose geranium Pine Clove Lemon Chamomile In a small bowl, add 1 and 1/2 cups of very warm (but not so hot that you scald your nasal tissues) distilled water, 6 tablespoons of finely ground unprocessed sea salt, and nine to 10 drops of essential oils, if you're using them. Stir the mixture well to dissolve the salt. Add the liquid to your Neti pot and let it cool before using. If you'd like to use more than one kind of essential oil, just be sure to use an equal number of drops so that the total number of drops equals nine or 10. Sea salt protects your nasal tissues. Never use tap water or water that hasn't been filtered, distilled, or sterilized by boiling for at least one minute. . Bend forward over a sink and tilt your head to one side. Breathe through your mouth to close your nose and throat off from the solution. Insert the neti pot spout into your upper nostril and slowly pour the solution so that it runs through and out of your lower nostril. Use half of the solution. Repeat this process with the other nostril and use the rest of the solution. Blow your nose when you're finished to get the remaining fluid out of your nose. If you don't have a Neti pot or don't feel comfortable using one, try a simple nasal saline spray, available at any pharmacy. You can also make your own at home, though you must be careful to get the right proportions of salt to water, or you could end up drying out your skin (use about one teaspoon of salt per pint of water). Use the saline spray to keep your sinuses hydrated while you are on the go. Irrigating your sinuses using a Neti pot is more effective in treating sinusitis than a nasal spray, but it can be intimidating at first. You may want to begin with a spray and gradually move to the Neti pot. Nasal saline sprays have the benefit of being ultra portable. Throw one in your purse or bag or keep one at work. If more than one member of your family has a sinus infection, consider using a diffuser. This will dispense essential oils throughout a room. Anyone with a sinus infection should sit as close as possible to the diffuser. Choose an essential oil and follow the manufacturer's instructions on your machine. Most diffusers suggest using 1/2 cup of water with three to five drops of essential oils.
