1. One of my students told me that a former instructor stated that ovulation leads to scar tissue forming. She didn’t state where the tissue formed, but if it did, I would imagine it would be on the ovaries. Any truth to this statement?

2. A student had the stomach flu and before he vomited, he tasted a “metallic” taste in his mouth. What would cause that?

I should know this one, but I don’t. I know that the sympathetic NS will decrease urine formation. But why, if really “scared” will one void?

Thanks for your feedback,
