What exactly is the chemical reaction that happens in female body to make you fall in love?


I mean after sex how females get that thing when they are emotionally attached to the guy. It seriously makes me not want to have sex because I'm scared of getting emotionally attached to the guy. What is it called?
----------

I dont know the reaction but the hormone oxytocin is produced. They call it the love hormone as it helps in emotional attachments and bondings with other people. It skyrockets in women during orgasm so thats why women are the ones who usually 'fall in love' more often.  (+ info)

What's the easiest way to get a foreign body out of your eye without seeking medical attention????


I work in warehouse where this is a common problem and safety glasses are not always available. This happens alot and it is normally just a small piece which comes out bt itself or with the aid of eyewash!!!
----------

If it's a small piece and isn't embedded in the eyeball then you can lift your upper eyelid and tuck the bottom eyelid underneath after removing any loose eyelashes. Sweep the inside of the upper lid with the lower lid. The lashes should remove any grit caught under the top lid. This also works in reverse. If the object still doesn't come out after trying everything else then go immediatly to your doctor. It's not worth losing your sight for the sake of a few bucks!  (+ info)

are there foods that can cause a reaction of red blotches all over the body, itching like cactus prickles?


This problem first present in early May , this year. I thought then that it could have been reaction to a detergent, Nappysan , in which I had soaked a dressing gown over a long period of time. I got the first occurence of the rash after I had slept a couple of hours, with this dressing gown wrapped around me.
Since that time, I have had regular recurrence. I still do not know whether it is chemical or food related. I have changed washing detergents, and am unable to isolate a particular food or food group as the cause. I have never previously had a food-related or any other form of allergic reaction. Neither am I a sensitive type of person prone to experience negarivy body reactions to stressful situations or environments. Typically, the rash lasts for several hours and covers all of my body. Not very nice in the delicate regions. ALL suggestions for Cause & Cure welcome. Itchy@Scratchy-in-One

You should get allergy tested.
It can be done in a day.
Pl. read this-
Many skin problems such as eczema arise because of allergies. Some other conditions such as allergic asthma and hay fever are also caused by allergies. To find out about your allergic reaction to a substance, your doctor may carry out a test on your skin. Lets find out more about this.

If you are taking some medicines that may interfere with allergic testing, your doctor may either not perform the test or wait for some days after you stop taking those medicines.

Similarly, your doctor may not perform the test if you have widespread eczema or other skin problem and wait till that settles. Your doctor may not test you for all the possible allergens. While testing, a scratch may be made in the skin and a droplet of the allergen may be put there to test. Or the allergen may be injected in the skin surface. The third method is patch testing in which patches of allergens are applied on your skin. Your doctor will watch for the reaction of the allergens with your skin. If test of any substance shows positive, you will be told that you are allergic to that substance. A patch is commonly left for two days, while in other tests, the reaction is observed after fifteen minutes.

Prepare a list of substances that you are allergic to and keep away from them. It is not necessary to carry out allergy test on everyone. Many of you may find out about your allergies when you observe your reactions after getting exposed to that substance.

What would be the body's reaction to a sudden scare (adrenaline rush) while starting an orgasm?


I just wonder what could happen if you are in the middle of making love and there is a sudden earthquake, or somebody points a gun at you as you are about to have an orgasm.
----------

I think you would lose the orgasm. A male would still ejaculate but it wouldn't feel good.  (+ info)

Does a persons body weight have any effect on their reaction to Marijuana?


Example: Would a person 90 pounds get a stronger high than someone who is 190, both smoking the same amount and type? Does a smaller person need a smaller dose?
----------

Yes...kinda, but it is really the amount of volume of smoke that you would inhale that would make the difference in that logical sense, but that is not the biggest factor. The biggest difference maker is tolerance, even a person who has smoked a couple of times before will be able to handle their affects better. The kind of marijuana will also make a difference, if you are smoking kinds, the first hit will always have more THC, the kief will burn first, which has the most THC, then the rest. If you are smoking the regs, it could also be that buds just affect the person more based upon metabolism like mentioned above, that can happen, and if it is adverse I would stop smoking immediately.  (+ info)
