Talk to your mother or an adult lady friend and get them to help you find a beauty shop. Dr. Falkner welcome! letters from readers. He cannot answer letters personally bat will try to answer letters of general Interest in his your wish not to appear unladylike.

Modern reputable beauty parlors have personnel who have trained in such matters, and I would recommend you and your mother paying a visit for a consultation. Merely, perhaps, bleaching out the hairs may make them far less noticeable. Can you help me. I'm 15-years old and have on my arms and neck. It's really not lady-like.

Can anything he done? I have to shave my legs every second day. A With the onset of your normal adolescence, your adult body hair pattern and distribution is becoming stabilized. So during this time it's important that treatments involving pills and hormone medicines are not carried but. But I fully understand Lit Alt Js 151 holding it up like a fault in the canal on that side. For example, a little hernia.

So each case has to be judged on its own merits. There is a difference of opinion as to the effectiveness of hormonal andor surgical treatment. It does seem if hormone treatment brings down the testes, they are likely to come down eventually in any case. Surgical treatment's success seems dependent on when it is done and whether the actual operation may damage the little organ. Your doctor can decide by examination (sometimes the missing testes comes down for a spell say in a warm bath and then pops back again!) and your son's age what needs to be done.

In his case, it's nearly always "nothing but wait." Blue Mapfc By DR. FRANK FALKNER My V2 year old son was born with just one testicle down. The other one has not yet come down, and the doctor cannot feel that it is there. What should we do? I have heard that surgery is not always successful. A What should we do? Nothing.

-1 But let's discuss it further. Both testicles start developing high up inside the abdomen, on each side, and gradually (and rather miraculously) descend through little canals in the groins out of the abdomen and land in the scrotal sac. This descent has usually occurred before the baby is born. But the timing can be off and sometimes the landing doesn't occur until late childhood. The whole process is related to normal hormone production by glands.

Rarely may an actual endocrine illness be associated with non-descending testicles. The key concern is that if both testicles stay inside the abdomen, it's too hot in there and normal production of male sperm won't occur, as it should do at adolescence. But your son has one testicle that has landed so on that score, there should be no worry. When just one is late, it's often because some mechanical factor is TINY SHRIMP FOR A TINY PRICE ALREADY CLEANED 'Alii! II i vwur- Norwood Selectman Olga A. (Ollie) Abdallah (Paul J.
