Hi,

I've been replying to problems for quite a while now and hope Ive helped make a difference in some way. Mostly I prefer answering questions relating to health and sex, as I feel these are the most important and I have a bit of background knowledge that I hope will be useful to others.

I tend not to answer questions I feel I'm not qualified to answer and put most of my energy into the ones I feel I am.

Anyways, If you'd like to ask me any questions then just message me :)

Bye!
