The growing number of middleaged and older people includes a concomitant continuous increase in the number of women who live most of their lives in a state hypoestrogenic. More and more women can expect to live another 79 years and experiencing the consequences of loss of gonadal hormones. br Although the time spent in menopause (currently up to one third of the life cycle) has increased with the phenomenon of increased longevity, the actual age of menopause around 5051 years has not changed since antiquity. The women of ancient Greece experienced menopause at the same age as modern women with the transition to menopause symptom usually starts at around 45.547.5 years.1, 2 factors that lower the age of menopause are few and physiological are smoking, 2 hysterectomy, carrier of Fragile X, autoimmune disorders, and living at high altitude. br menopause results for the loss of ovarian sensitivity to gonadotropin stimulation, which is directly related to follicular decline and dysfunction. The oocytes from ovaries undergo atresia throughout a womans life cycle, and both the quantity and quality of follicles undergo a critical decline of approximately 2025 years after menarche. Thus, the variable menstrual cycle length during perimenopause may be due to anovulation or irregular maturation of the follicles. Hormonal fluctuations can not be responsible of any irregular bleeding during this period, therefore, pelvic pathology (eg, uterine fibroids, uterine polyps, endometrial hyperplasia, endometrial cancer), which becomes more frequent during this time, they must be excluded by endometrial sampling, such as endometrial biopsy (EMB) or dilatation and curettage (DC). br During the fifth decade of life, many women are lulled into a false sense of security, thinking that they are infertile because they are so close to menopause. Although declines in fertility, pregnancy can still occur, as evidenced by a relatively high rate of unwanted pregnancies in women aged 4044 years. In fact, the number of unwanted pregnancies in this age group has increased over the last decade, 3, which highlights the need for continuous contraceptive practice in heterosexual couples. br A shorter duration of the menstrual cycle is the most common change in menstrual cyclicity that occurs during the perimenopausal period in women who have no pelvic pathology and who remain ovulatory.4 the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle is shortened due to the decreased number of functional follicles. Because these follicles, which are stimulated by follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) in the first part of the menstrual cycle have been reduced in number, less recruitment of oocytes is produced and the follicular phase is shortened accordingly. However, once ovulation occurs, the luteal phase remains fairly constant, at 14 days. br Over time, as the follicles of aging become more resistant to gonadotropin stimulation, movement of FSH and luteinizing hormone (LH) levels increase. High levels of FSH and LH lead to stimulation of the ovarian stroma, resulting in increased levels of estrone and decreased levels of estradiol. Also falling inhibin levels during this time due to the negative feedback of elevated FSH levels.5 With the onset of menopause and the loss of function of the follicles, the most significant change in hormonal profile is the dramatic decrease circulating levels of estrogen. Without a follicular source, the highest proportion of postmenopausal estrogen secretion is derived from the ovarian stroma and adrenal androstenedione that is aromatized to estrone in the peripheral circulation. Testosterone levels also decrease with menopause, 6, but this decrease is not as marked as the decline in the 17estradiol.7 br With the cessation of ovulation, estrogen production by aromatization of androgens in the stroma Ovarian and extragonadal production sites continue, without opposition, the production of progesterone by the corpus luteum. Perimenopausal and menopausal women are therefore often exposed to unopposed estrogen for long periods, which can lead to endometrial hyperplasia, a precursor to endometrial cancer. Estradiol levels decrease significantly due to loss of follicular production with menopause and menopause, but estrone, androstenedione that is aromatized from sources nonfollicular still occurs and is the main source of circulating estrogen in postmenopausal women . br Androgen aromatization to estrogens can occur in adipose tissue, muscle, liver, bone, bone marrow, fibroblasts, and hair roots.6 Because most of the conversion of androgens to estrogens occurs in adipose tissue, is often considered Women who are obese, have more circulating estrogen should have fewer complaints of vasomotor symptoms. However, this is not always the case, and vasomotor symptoms of menopause can be as frequent and severe in overweight women and in lean women. br The clinical indication that menopause has occurred is the measure of an elevated FSH level. The FSH level increases more than the level of LH due to reduced renal clearance of FSH compared with LH. A little high or borderline levels of FSH in perimenopausal women menopause can not be a reliable indicator of menopause due to the wide range of FSH and LH levels in response to increased gonadotropinreleasing hormone (GnRH) the sensitivity of the hypothalamus and increased to GnRH. Measurement of FSH and LH levels again in the perimenopausal patient after 23 months is helpful to establish whether women are progressing through menopause. Women with elevated, but not postmenopausal FSH levels are still at risk of pregnancy and contraception should still be used until the levels of FSH remain in the postmenopausal range. br Excellent resources for patient education, visit eMedicine Women's Health Center and Bone Health Center. Also, see the eMedicine's patient education menopause, female sexual problems, and hormone replacement and osteoporosis. br Throughout the time that the physiological changes in response to gonadotropins and their secretions are produced, with resulting wide variation in hormone levels, women often experience several symptoms that are collectively termed the climacteric syndrome. Typical climacteric symptoms include hot flashes or flushes, insomnia, weight gain and bloating, mood swings, irregular menses, mastodynia, and headache. As noted, the length of time during which menopause occurs is very variable, symptoms may begin during perimenopause and continue for 510 years after menopause. br irregular ovarian function and considerable fluctuation in estrogen, not estrogen deficiency causes climacteric symptoms during menopause, so hormone fluctuations stop using oral contraceptives (OCs) and hormone therapy (HT) relieves climacteric symptoms. Ovarian function and menstruation therefore generally does not resume if the woman has experienced a year of amenorrhea. The cessation of menstruation in women of appropriate age is still the best confirmation of the loss of follicular function. As advanced years postmenopause, with a consequent loss of ovarian response to gonadotropins, associated symptoms of menopause are also reduced. br The effects of gonadal hormone depletion may be evident on pelvic exam, with changes seen in perimenopause and in some women. The reproductive organs of women of reproductive age are different in appearance from those of a woman who was the menopause. With the loss of estrogen, the vaginal lining becomes red due to thinning of the epithelial layer and increased visibility of small blood vessels in the area. Later, as subsequent atrophy of the vaginal epithelium, the surface becomes pale due to a reduced number of capillaries. A decrease in urine pH to a change in the bacterial flora can cause itching and malodorous discharge. Rugation also decreases, and the vaginal wall becomes soft. These changes often result in dyspareunia insertion and, for many women ultimately lead to sexual abstinence if not treated. br Within the pelvis, the uterus becomes smaller. Fibroids, if any, are less symptomatic, sometimes decline to the point where it can not be felt on pelvic exam. Endometriosis and adenomyosis are also relieved with the onset of menopause, and many patients with pelvic pain finally achieve permanent pain relief. br The ovary of menopause and decreases in size and not palpable during gynecological examinations. A palpable ovary in orders for a pelvic exam a full assessment of all menopausal or postmenopausal women. br For older women, a general loss of pelvic tone also occurs, and this may manifest as organ prolapse or urinary reproductive tract (see Uterine prolapse and prolapse. Vaginal Pressure, pressure lower back, or bulge in the vaginal opening is common in women with prolapse. On examination, cystocele prolapse, rectocele, and uterine cancer are obvious, as causes of these symptoms. br Atrophic cystitis, when present, can simulate a urinary tract infection. Report Women's symptoms of urinary frequency, urgency and incontinence. But women are more prone to urinary tract infection during this time because of atrophic cystitis, and a growing urine should be obtained in all symptomatic women. br In addition to alterations in the pelvic organs, significant changes occur throughout the body. The skin loses elasticity, bone mineral density (BMD) decreases, and the dense breast tissue, is replaced by fat tissue, making mammographic evaluation easier. br The most common reason a woman presents at menopause is due to the symptoms of hot flashes. flashes, or flushes, which are unpredictable at the start, and sometimes occur for many years, occur in about 75% of women who are perimenopausal or postmenopausal. Hot flashes often cause embarrassment and discomfort, and sleep disturbances and emotional lability, especially if they are intense and occur frequently. Vasomotor episodes usually last a few minutes. episodes vary in frequency from every hour to every few days. br A woman who is dumped to the extent that it is important sleep disorders may also complain of cognitive or affective disorders from sleep deprivation . The vasomotor color is described as a feeling of warmth or heat that starts in the umbilical area and moves upward toward the head, followed by the sweat of the head and upper body. Other cardiovascular or neurologic symptoms (eg , palpitations, dizziness, lightheadedness, vertigo) may also occur with or without flushing, making the episode more difficult to classify as simply a symptom of the climacteric. Because of the wide range of symptoms, symptomatic women who have risk factors for a condition that menopause should be assessed thoroughly. br Although osteoporosis is one of the most important conditions in older women, the condition is often not taken seriously by menopausal women. With appropriate intervention, the Osteopenia is a largely preventable consequence of menopause. Osteoporosis is defined as bone mineral density (BMD) equal to or greater than 2.5 standard deviations (SDs) below the peak bone mass or T score. The Osteopenia is a 1.02.49 BMD SD below the T score. br In 2001, Grady and Cummings conducted a metaanalysis of 22 trials with data on a total of 8800 women. They found a 27% reduction in risk nonvertebral fractures in older women who received hormone therapy. For hip and wrist fractures, risk reduction was 40%, increasing to 55% in women under 60 years.8 The data from the Women # 39; s Health Initiative (WHI) also showed decreased bone fractures in women with hormone therapy. Since hormone therapy is primarily indicated for the relief of vasomotor symptoms, hormones are no longer firstline therapy for osteoporosis. br In onset of menopause, BMD is quickly lost due to bone resorption, detached from the bone formation is accelerated, while the training according to the rate of menopause. Trabecular bone is affected more than cortical bone, and bone loss is therefore more commonly seen in spinal coxial, and radial sites. normal bone loss associated with aging is different from the accelerated bone loss observed after menopause. The only bone loss A few years after the onset of menopause can be as high as 20% of the bones for life loss.8 br The overall effect of postmenopausal bone loss is the reduction of bone strength, leading to an increased risk fracture. The youngest women in the cessation of ovarian function, loss of bone mass is likely to be severe. Similarly, the lower bone mass womans to enter menopause, the most serious of osteoporosis will be. The severity of osteoporosis is also related to race, being worse in whites than in Asians, and less severe in darkskinned women. Other risk factors are smoking and slim. Osteoclasts are been shown to have estrogen receptors, and these are hypotheses to be the mechanism by which estrogen replacement protects against osteoporosis. br Bone densitometry is the factor most accurate clinical prediction of osteoporosis. If bone mass is less than 1 standard deviation below the average of the measured specific bones, then the individual is in a much higher risk of fracture. Other risk factors, such as low serum estrogen levels, female sex, low serum androgens, smoking, physical inactivity, low body weight, and little exposure to sunlight are risk factors for osteopenia and osteoporosis. Bone densitometry testing is recommended for all postmenopausal women. Neither age of initial detection of BMD or optimal frequency of detection was determined. br As noted above, estrogen therapy (ET) is considered a promising treatment for osteoporosis, but indications of hormone therapy have changed, other medications commonly used to treat osteoporosis . Preparations of oral and transdermal estrogen have been approved for the prevention of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women who are considered at risk. Postmenopausal women and elderly should be treated quickly and on a long term unless therapy is contraindicated estrogen. br With the loss of ovarian function is a universal phenomenon and not all women can or will use hormone therapy, other treatments have been developed. These include raloxifene, calcitonin and bisphosphonates. Raloxifene is a modulator selective estrogen receptor (SERMs), and acts directly on estrogen receptors in the bone to reduce bone resorption, thus reducing risk9 vertebral fractures and increased BMD. No effect on hip fracture risk has br documented.9 Calcitonin is a peptide hormone that acts by inhibiting osteoclasts, which are involved in bone resorption activity. A decrease in the rate of vertebral fractures has been demonstrated with this therapy, and a small increase in BMD in older women. Serum calcium should be monitored in patients taking this medicine. br Bisphosphonates are the most useful drug treatment and work as antiresorptive. They have shown a beneficial effect on the incidence of vertebral and hip fractures and to cause a more significant increase in BMD of raloxifene calcitonin.10, 11 Two widely used and effective bisphosphonates are alendronate and risedronate. Vertebral Efficacy with Risedronate Therapy (VERT) study was conducted in 110 centers and included 2458 postmenopausal women had vertebral fractures. Risedronate was administered at a dose of 5 mg for 36 months and showed a statistically significant reduction in relative risk (RR) of new vertebral fractures (RR = 0.59, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1858%). The cumulative incidence of nonvertebral fractures was also reduced.11 br Both alendronate and risedronate was first introduced with a daily dose for the treatment of osteoporosis. Patients can now prescribe a weekly dose alendronate and risedronate, which increases their tolerance and reduces side effects. A new bisphosphonate, ibandronate, has recently been approved for monthly use. The main side effects of bisphosphonates remain gastrointestinal upset and reflux. Patients with significant GERD should avoid the use of bisphosphonates unless approved by a gastroenterologist. Supplementation with 10001500 mg of calcium per day remains a pillar of prevention therapy, as vitamin D and regular weight exercise support. excess salt, animal protein, alcohol and caffeine offset these benefits. br coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in men and postmenopausal women. Menopause increases the risk even more for women, independent of age. Before menopause, the risk of CAD for women lags behind men at risk for about 10 years. After menopause, women come to have similar risks of CAD as men of the same age. As a result, the death rate from CAD in women is increasing. The Framingham study was critical to show the relationship between menopause and increased cardiovascular mortality rate.12 br Women # 39; s Health Initiative (WHI) was a randomized controlled trial that addressed the question of whether postmenopausal women who take hormone therapy or estrogen therapy for prevention of CAD.13, 14 more than 27,000 women participated in the WHI. The study found that hormone therapy and estrogen therapy are not indicated for the prevention of CAD. The analysis of the WHI emerging data show that the immediate use of hormone therapy / estrogen therapy in the perimenopause and time may reduce the risk of CAD. The WHI clearly demonstrates that women more than 9 years post menopause should not start hormone therapy or estrogen therapy for prevention of CAD. At this time, hormone therapy / estrogen therapy is indicated primarily to relieve vasomotor symptoms. br In starting hormone therapy or estrogen therapy in the immediate periphery or in the postmenopausal time is believed to be beneficial because significant atherosclerotic changes have not happened yet. After 9 years have passed since menopause , arterial damage seems to have begun. studies are ongoing to test these theories in humans and primate models. Studies hormones and arterial plaques in ovariectomized monkeys promising in this area.15, 16 new trials support the protective effects of estrogen when used in a few years of menopause has come from the subanalysis by Manson et al in 2007 which showed that coronary artery calcification was lower in women placed on oral conjugated equine estrogens br placebo.17 those benefit of estrogen on cardiovascular mortality rates is due to many factors. One mechanism that appears to be effects of estrogen on lipid metabolism, including reducing lowdensity lipoprotein (LDL) and increased high density lipoprotein (HDL). Studies have suggested that the best predictors of CAD in men and women are different18 and triglycerides, HDL and lipoprotein (a) may be more significant in women.19 br Women with elevated lipoprotein (a) levels should be treated more aggressively, and therapy should be considered include estrogen therapy and a statin. A positive relationship between estrogen therapy and cardiovascular risk reduction in primary has been shown in several studies, and risk reduction in women taking estrogen therapy may be similar to reducing the risk of those receiving specific lipids to reduce therapy.20 However, taking into account data from WHI or hormone therapy or estrogen therapy for CAD should be given at this time. The main indication for hormone therapy / estrogen therapy is symptomatic relief of vasomotor symptoms. br The Heart and Estrogen / progestin Replacement (HERS) Study, 21, 7, 22 a study of 2763 postmenopausal women with known CAD, compared the effect of continuous combined hormone therapy compared to placebo for an average of 4.2 years. Without reducing rates of CAD charitable events was initially observed in the hormone therapy group. In fact, the first rate of adverse events was higher in the treatment arm than in the placebo group, offsetting the reduction in the risk later in the therapy group hormone. A 11% reduction in LDL and a 10% increase in HDL levels were evident in the treatment group. These observations together suggest that the protective effects of estrogen on cardiovascular morbidity resulting from the mechanisms of many and not only the reduction of lipids, and that estrogen alone is not adequate therapy for secondary prevention of CAD. br The Postmenopausal Estrogen / Progestin Interventions (PEPI) Trial, which included 875 healthy postmenopausal women, compared with various CAD risk factors as predictors of outcomes in women receiving different regimens of hormones by the participants randomized to receive placebo or 1 of 5 regimens of estrogen / progestin therapy.23 All groups treatment showed an overall improvement in levels of HDL and LDL compared with the placebo group. The improvement in the level of HDL was better in the group receiving unopposed estrogen than in the other treatment groups, however, people using unopposed estrogen also had the highest rate of endometrial hyperplasia. br The Nurses Health Study showed a reduction of approximately 11% of primary cardiovascular disease risk in postmenopausal women using HRT compared with women who had never used hormone therapy, regardless of the duration of use.24 The risk reduction did not appear to be dose dependent. However, these data have been eclipsed by the WHI. br The greatest beneficial effect of estrogen seems to be on endothelial function. The women undergoing angioplasty appear to be protected against restenosis by estrogen therapy.25 early atherosclerosis progression in postmenopausal women who smoked, as measured by carotid intimal thickness with time was greater than in women who smoked and were on estrogen therapy.26 studies in monkeys have shown that the coronary vasculature has a favorable response to conjugate equine estrogens.27, 28 These results are being investigated by other studies in humans, the breakdown of age groups in the WHI data, and in animal studies.29, 16, 27 br Estrogen therapy is known to benefit postmenopausal women in a multitude of ways, mainly through the relief of vasomotor symptoms associated with time postmenopausal . Estrogen is also beneficial for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. There is much controversy over the use of estrogen and breast cancer. Some studies show an increased risk of breast cancer with estrogen use in postmenopausal women, while others show a decrease. Estrogens possible link to cancer is also suggested by the fact that the risk of breast cancer is higher in women with an earlier age of menarche and the later age of menopause. With age early in pregnancy, however, and there is a cessation of menstruation hormonal changes, reduction in risk. The role of estrogen in breast cancer development is still being studied. br In Women # 39; s Health Initiative (WHI), the incidence of breast cancer increased in the estrogen / progestin versus placebo arm of the study (38 vs. 30 per 10,000 people; hazard ratio [HR] = 1.26]). However, the incidence of cancer decreased breast estrogen alone versus placebo arm of the study (26 vs 33 per 10,000 personyears [HR = 0.77]) .13, 14 The role of estrogen remains puzzling in the development of breast cancer. In the Today, no woman with a strong family or personal history of breast cancer should be given hormone therapy or estrogen therapy. br The data indicate a slightly higher RR with the use of estrogen in approximately 1.11.330, 31, but not all evidence supports this finding.32 The risk appears to be related to duration of use, longerterm users to be more affected.33 br The data suggest that the sequential addition of progestin to the regimen increases the RR of developing cancer later breast cancer beyond the risk of estrogen alone, although he has suggested that continuous combined hormone therapy using much smaller doses of progestin attenuates this most risk.34 previous studies evaluating the risk of breast cancer and estrogen therapy were carried out at a time when the progestin in hormone therapy is administered cyclically. br In particular, women with a history of use of hormone therapy are more localized tumors and improved survival rates. That is, the women receiving hormone therapy who are diagnosed with breast cancer are found to have more favorable stop when diagnosis31, including smaller tumor size, lymph node negative, and more welldifferentiated tumor histology.35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43 br A beneficial effect on mortality rates of breast cancer has been demonstrated in postmenopausal women who received hormone therapy compared with controls with no history of hormone therapy use.30 study results do not agree on whether this is due to early detection or for purposes of selftherapy on breast tissue. The general belief is that any increase in risk is small and that each patient should be evaluated as a candidate for estrogen therapy or hormone therapy on an individual basis, taking into account the overall balance of risks and benefits. An essential tenet in the management of menopause is that each individual is unique and that treatment should be adapted accordingly. The main indication for hormone therapy and estrogen therapy at this time is the relief of vasomotor symptoms. br The association between estrogen and memory function is an interesting area of research. Normal aging itself causes a decrease in certain cognitive abilities, and lack of estrogen can contribute to this process. If this is the case, estrogen therapy in postmenopausal women may be able to preserve this function and delay or even prevent the decline in certain cognitive functions . One difficulty inherent in this field are the limitations of objective tests of cognitive functions like memory. In the past, estrogen therapy has been associated with better performance on memory tests in postmenopausal women than in controles postmenop�usicas que no recib�an estr�genos therapy.44, 45 El efecto del estr�geno es una de frenar el declive de la funci�n de la memoria preservada. Datos de la WHI no muestran una mejor�a en la funci�n cognitiva en las mujeres que tomaron ya sea estr�geno o la terapia hormonal therapy.13, 14 de br Actualmente, los datos sugieren que las mujeres tienen una mayor incidencia de la enfermedad de Alzheimer que los hombres, incluso teniendo en cuenta la mayor esperanza de vida de las mujeres, debido a la enfermedad de Alzheimer es principalmente una relacionada con la edad condition.46 En estudios anteriores, la terapia de estr�geno parece reducir la relaci�n riesgo de desarrollar enfermedad de Alzheimer y / o retrasar su onset.47, 48 estr�geno no se ha demostrado que muestran una mejora en la funci�n cognitiva en pacientes con enfermedad de Alzheimer, es decir, que no puede revertir el deterioro cognitivo anterior y por lo tanto no tiene ninguna funci�n como �nica modalidad de tratamiento en la enfermedad de Alzheimer. De datos de WHI est� de acuerdo con esta opini�n . br La perimenopausia es con frecuencia un tiempo de s�ntomas depresivos asociados con efectos hormonales directos a trav�s de variaciones en los niveles y cambios en las circunstancias de la vida y secundaria a los efectos tales como el estr�genorelacionados con las alteraciones del sue�o y los s�ntomas vasomotores. Sin embargo, la depresi�n mayor se asocia con el sexo femenino en todas las edades, y la demostraci�n objetiva de un grupo de casos alrededor de la menopausia ha sido dif�cil, aunque esto parece ser cierto anecd�tica. br Independientemente de si se cumplen los criterios para un diagn�stico definitivo de la depresi�n mayor, los s�ntomas depresivos debe considerarse siempre en el contexto del nivel de funcionamiento; cualquier consideraci�n deterioro �rdenes de intervenci�n. br En todos, pero muy pocos casos, distinguir la etiolog�a de los s�ntomas como la depresi�n primaria frente a la menopausia no suele ser posible. El tratamiento de los s�ntomas depresivos con los estr�genos en la perimenopausia, el periodo de posparto, de 49 a�os y el s�ndrome premenstrual es com�n, con el consiguiente mejoramiento observado en el funcionamiento y estado de �nimo , tanto subjetiva como objetiva, en muchos casos cl�nicos. La depresi�n cl�nica, sin embargo, garantiza el tratamiento con antidepresivos, con estr�geno mostraron beneficios como terapia adyuvante en este escenario. A corto plazo el uso de estr�genos durante la �poca de la fluctuaci�n de estr�genos parece ser de alguna benefit.50 br Microcelulares los efectos del estr�geno en el SNC a�n no han sido claramente definidos, pero puede revelar los procesos complejos por los que el estr�geno tiene un efecto directo en el funcionamiento del SNC. Uno de estos procesos puede llegar a ser una reducci�n en el da�o de los radicales libres por la terapia de estr�geno. br Aumenta la secreci�n de gonadotropinas dram�ticamente despu�s de la menopausia. Los niveles de FSH son m�s altas que los niveles de LH, y ambos aumentan a niveles incluso m�s altos que en el aumento durante el ciclo menstrual. El aumento de FSH precede a la de la LH. La gran variaci�n c�clica de estradiol y estrona observado durante los a�os de la menstruaci�n cesa, y la fluctuaci�n en los niveles es peque�o y sin importancia, con la media que es muy muy inferior. Los niveles de estradiol circulantes tienen gamas muy diferentes antes y despu�s de la menopausia, y estos niveles son obviamente mucho menor en la menopausia. Frotis del epitelio vaginal ofrecer una imagen compuesta de la estimulaci�n de estr�genos end�genos y ex�genos en el tiempo, el m�s estr�geno, mayor es el n�mero de c�lulas superficiales. No hay cambios espec�ficos relacionados con la menopausia se han encontrado en la funci�n tiroidea. br Biopsia del endometrio puede mostrar una serie de apariciones de endometrio, de leve a proliferar atr�fica. No se observan cambios secretores despu�s de la menopausia debido a que no se produce la ovulaci�n, y por lo tanto no se forma el cuerpo l�teo para producir progesterona. La hiperplasia endometrial es un signo de hiperestimulaci�n por los estr�genos de cualquiera de las fuentes end�genas o terapia de reemplazo y puede ser un precursor del c�ncer de endometrio. La hiperplasia endometrial tambi�n puede ser sugerido por ecograf�a (el grosor del endometrio de 5 mm), que es �til para tratar de excluir a la hiperplasia y c�ncer de endometrio en las mujeres posmenop�usicas. br La raz�n principal para tratar los s�ntomas de la fluctuaci�n de niveles de estr�geno antes de la menopausia son reales para proporcionar alivio de los s�ntomas vasomotores, reducir el riesgo de embarazo no deseado, evitar la irregularidad de los ciclos menstruales, y conservar el hueso. br El momento de comenzar la terapia de los pacientes depende de la enfermedad actual o enfermedades, si los hubiere, y la historia m�dica. Si una mujer es perimenop�usicas o postmenop�usicas ayuda a la hora de elegir el tipo m�s adecuado de la terapia . Cada paciente debe tomar una decisi�n despu�s de recibir asesoramiento sobre todos los hechos y una explicaci�n de las opciones. Por ejemplo, la mujer perimenop�usicas pueden iniciar una terapia hormonal, si ella o su c�nyuge ha sido objeto de un procedimiento de esterilizaci�n, mientras que la misma mujer puede necesitar una OCP si todav�a necesita control de la natalidad. Many factors, including personal history, family history, smoking, peer and commercial influences, culture, ethnicity, and economics, also play roles in the final decision, and all must be carefully weighed by the clinician and patient together. br Adverse effects of replacement therapy may include bloating, mastodynia, vaginal bleeding, and headaches. Unexplained adverse effects are often the reason for discontinuation of therapy, and reassuring counseling as well as options and dose combinations should be tried before therapy is stopped. br Hormone therapy can be administered systemically through the oral, transdermal, or topical routes or locally via the vaginal route using cream, ring, or tablet. Topical preparations are used solely to treat vaginal symptoms. br Contraindications to estrogen therapy are undiagnosed vaginal bleeding, severe liver disease, pregnancy, venous thrombosis, and personal history of breast cancer. Welldifferentiated and early endometrial cancer, once treatment for the malignancy is complete, is no longer an absolute contraindication. Progestins alone may relieve symptoms if the patient is unable to tolerate estrogens. br Alternative products, ranging from herbal preparations to dietary supplements that contain various phytoestrogens, are reputed to ease the transition from perimenopause to postmenopause and are widely available. However, these agents have not undergone the same scrutiny in randomized controlled trials as the pharmaceutical products. Overthecounter herbal products and phytoestrogens, including soy, are assumed to act the same as their pharmaceutical counterparts, but the herbal and vitamin industry is currently unregulated by the FDA. In women who cannot (due to a history of breast cancer) or choose not to take estrogen therapy/hormone therapy and suffer from hot flashes or flushes, the SSRIs (in particular, venlaxifine) have been shown to alleviate vasomotor symptoms. br br

I am a personal trainer and instructor in Minneapolis. I come on my 40th birthday in October. I've been struggling with fibrocystic breast during the past 7 years. Fibroids are painful when I exercise (which is 23hrs/day) and caused my left breast to be noticeably larger than my right. As a coach, the symmetry is very important to me, so I started on a quest to solve this problem. br I have consulted several doctors about a solution and the most common responses were: # 1Close all stimulants such as caffeine, chocolate, wine, etc. for 6 months and # 2Being happy with my body, just the way is. I am willing to try anything as long as I get my desired end result, so I quit I quit my stimulants and black chocolate and white wine for 6 months. Let's say my husband found me a nice feeling for the first month of this experiment! It was one of the hardest things Ive had to do, but I thought it would be worthwhile. Well, it was not. Nothing changed. Fibroids has not dissipated, which means that it still had a large chest pain. Needless to say, I am again enjoying my caffeine! br With the first suggestion of marking the list, I was with # 2. Mostly, I'm very happy with my body and how it looks and also how it performs on a sporting level. However, I am very satisfied. Although, I am also of the mentality that if you can change something and the more physically and mentally, why not! Accept what you cannot change and change what I can. So three years ago, I saw Dr. Bashioum for liposuction on my left breast, hoping that if we take the size down to that procedure, it wouldnt be so heavy and therefore not as painful. Not to mention, the size might be better to party! He was one of the possible treatments and that worked for some time. However, in recent years, the fibroids have gotten bigger and are virtually almost everyone in my breast tissue on the affected side. At this point, I'm thinking of more surgery to correct the asymmetry of me. I'll tell you more after my visit with Dr. Bashioum about my decision to have or not a reduction in the left breast. br br

Dr. Andrea Neri is the author invited in the following Progestone hormone. Progesterone is one of many hormones that regulate and stimulate the various functions of our body. While most of us are aware of estrogens, little attention is focused on the progesterone. Progesterone is produced by the ovaries, the placenta when a woman is pregnant and also by the adrenal glands. Its main function is to prepare the uterus for implantation of a fertilized egg and to keep progesterone pregnancy.Levels vary through a womans menstrual cycle. It occurs just before ovulation and increasing in the last two weeks of a menstrual cycle. Its decline at the end of the cycle promotes the shedding of the uterine lining and the beginning of a menstrual cycle.Progesterone counters the effects of estrogen in the body. This is the reason that they are matched in many hormonal preparations. Progesterone also affects our nervous system by increased sleepiness and decreased anxiety. I recommend that many of my patients on formulas of progesterone to take about bedtime to help sleep. Progesterone helps to mature breast tissue and prepare for milk production. Promotes appetite and fat storage especially pregnant women.When has a lot of progesterone in relation to estrogen, may experience a decrease in insulin sensitivity, weight gain, depression and low libido. When you have very little progesterone relative to estrogen may experience irregular menstrual cycles, breast tenderness, irritability and mood swings, endometriosis and uterine fibroids. An interesting note: when Progesterone levels are very low, really cannot make enough cortisol from the adrenal glands. This is a very important issue to consider when treating someone with adrenal deficiency function.It seems that in our lives as women who either have too little or too much of some hormones or if it is balanced, does not continue. That usually corresponds to when I'm riding a broom to work or car. Id prefer a car any day. Ask my husband and kids! As we grow and enter the time before they actually stop the menses (perimenopause), the progesterone and estrogen levels are fluctuating a lot. Ovulations losses are becoming more frequent. You may notice a change in the number of days in the menstrual cycle, a change in flow or even changes in sleep and hot flashes.I find that treating a woman during these times can be more rewarding. There are many options. As a physician Naturpathic, I tend to gravitate toward therapies that are less invasive and less harmful to the body. My first approach is to evaluate the function of the body before just treating the symptoms. You will be surprised how little your body requires in terms of hormones. It really is to balance hormones. I always look to adrenal function, the production of progesterone, and pituitary function before considering the increase in hormones. My goal is to support production systems first.I hormone have been working with Marie Lachney in the last 10 years in a team approach with a specialized laboratory to evaluate the functioning of the body and then recommend the supplements that the results of evidence suggests are necessary to help each client achieve the balance between hormones. More information on frequently asked questions and the test protocol in Maries MarieLachney.com website Pioneering CounselingI continue to contribute articles on other hormones, both male and female, and very important for the health of other issues related. br br

Author: With Fred Kavalier problemMy Embarrassing son developed the extension of the breasts (gynecomastia) at the age of 16. It was something tender, and of course it was very embarrassing. Eighteen months later, and no change has been prescribed tamoxifen, but said it is unlikely that the state will never disappear. The consultant also discouraged the idea of the operation, saying it had a high likelihood of scarring. We understand that this condition is more common than most people assume.

His son, however, clearly suffering from something more important. The enlargement of one breast in children is uncommon. Tamoxifen, a drug that blocks the effects of estrogen, often helps, but only if used in the early stages of breast enlargement. Surgery to remove breast tissue is possible, and need not cause excessive scarring. If your child is having to modify their behavior to cover his shame, I think you should get a second opinion on the possibility of surgery. It would be best to see a surgeon who specializes in breast surgery. The physical and psychological trauma of surgery must be weighed against the psychological effects of continuous child feeling that something is seriously wrong with their body shape. � This drug makes me fat I wonder if the medication Seroquel (also known as quetiapine) makes you gain weight. Although normally used to treat schizophrenia, I'm not schizophrenic, and I'm in a very low dose. take 100 mg a night if I feel very concerned and get a racing mind. If I knew I was doing to gain weight, that would be a big incentive to leave it.Seroquel is one of a group of relatively new drugs used to treat mental illness like schizophrenia. They are known as atypical antipsychotics, because they work differently from older drugs such as chlorpromazine. These newer drugs tend to be as effective as the older but less serious side effects. For this reason, is being established as firstline treatment. There are, however, completely free of side effects. One of the most common side effects of these drugs is weight gain. It is not uncommon that someone put a rock or even more after you start taking an atypical antipsychotic such as Seroquel. The other drugs in this group are olanzapine and risperidone. The adverse effect of weight gain does not affect everyone who Seroquel. Recent research has shown that there is probably a genetic predisposition to this weight gain.

Bioidentical Hormones 101How take control of your health (just say no to drugs RX) IntroductionI am not a medical doctor. Strictly speaking from experience. The purpose of this article is to help others avoid some of the pitfalls they have experienced due to deficiencies in the medical field about how aging affects our health. If you are in 30, 40 or more, you could be entering the area of perimenopause and menopause and may be experiencing symptoms of hormonal imbalance. Most likely, the treatments recommended by your family doctor, unless you are familiar with bioidentical hormones (BHRT), only mask symptoms, but the usual balance your hormones, causing your problem. Until their hormones are in balance, you will be subject to a number of diseases, including heart disease, diabetes, stroke, thrombosis, bone loss and cancer. If you're like me, instead of the obvious hot flashes and night sweats you may experience some not so obvious symptoms, including joint pain, itching, dryness, insomnia, headaches, low sex drive, moodiness, incontinence urine, stains, or prolonged bleeding, panting, weight gain, palpitations, dizziness, fibroids, sweet cravings, fatigue, even thyroid problems. Thyroid problems often go undiagnosed because doctors tend to use a single approach. The problem with this approach is affected by stress, hormones can fluctuate hourly and are as individual as fingerprints, so it is necessary to begin BHRT, to have them tested quarterly or half yearly, if possible. A second reason for the imbalances go undiagnosed is that the scale used by many physicians is based on a healthy population. Therefore, many women with a thyroid problem is said to them: Do not have a problem. I do not recommend anyone not to seek medical attention. Rather, my suggestion is this, once more serious illnesses such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes and cancer have been ruled altzheimers if symptoms persist, then consider the possibility of controlling their hormones. Once you begin treatment, you should never go alone. Always under the care of a professional. Internet use is fine. You can save money once you know which products to use, but you need a diagnosis first. A DO (medical doctor specializing in natural medicine) that can advise the hormones should be tested according to their symptoms. Be proactive. Do some research on their own. Get your hands on as much information as possible in this field is still developing and there are some things that even their DO, consultant pharmacist, urologist, gynecologist, endocrinologist or may not know. While some traditional practitioners may refuse to discuss herbal remedies, these doctors are likely to welcome your input. Personal ExperienceIts important for me to share my personal experience, so that anyone reading this understands the importance of being proactive. We tend to put doctors on a pedestal. We think they have all the answers. But the truth is that medicine is changing and not all doctors are keeping up. The use of BHRT is a work in progress, even for many doctors. Therefore incumbent on us to help guide our treatment rather than trust them to do all the thinking. My trip to BHRT started due to a longlasting period of six months. At first, I was given an injection of Lupron, which temporarily stopped the bleeding. When he returned, he prescribed a treatment that decreases bleeding, but side effects include the potential for stroke and weight gain, among others. I sought alternative treatments when I learned that it was intended as a treatment for cancer and AIDS. Ten pounds later, my family doctor prescribed medroxyprogesterone and referred me to another gynecologist. During the course of my treatment, I tried not only a second opinion, but opinion third, fourth and fifth. The suggestions range from the myomectomy, the ablation, hysterectomy, and an experimental procedure in which the arteries are squeezed, depriving fibroids (the alleged perpetrators at a time) of blood. I tried a number of herbal treatments that I found online, but none worked until I tried Chinese herbs under the care of a physician Chinese herbal. The bleeding stopped completely in ten days, but I remained with vaginal burning, pain, urgency and urinary incontinence. Antibiotics were prescribed and over again despite the results of tests for bacterial infections and sexually transmitted diseases were negative. I bought a test kit hormone from a pharmacy and found that my hormones were unbalanced. Then, not long after I started taking bioidentical hormones to restore balance, a burst cyst previously undiagnosed, landing me in the emergency room. The emergency physician ordered a CT scan to look for kidney stones, revealing an unknown mass. Ultrasound identified the mass of blood and fluid from the ruptured ovarian cyst. Although surgery is sometimes necessary, he was discharged from hospital with painkillers and keep an eye on him. What I learned from my experience is that while traditional Western medicine can save your life and a blessing when we need it, in general, professionals rely on quick fixes (ie, surgery and prescription medication). If I had opted for one of the surgeries, my hormonal imbalance would have continued and while the bleeding has stopped, the imbalance would eventually lead to other medical problems. The main differences and similarities between DOS and traditional healers are: two go to medical school. However, at some point both branching time when the traditional medical focus on pharmaceuticals while naturopaths, homeopaths, and chiropractors focus on grasses. In general, traditional practitioners, what is lacking is the nutrition education. For nutrition, I do not mean only what we eat but a complement, including BHRT. Therein lies the problem. To demonstrate this point, when I asked a gynecologist if he thought he might be suffering from a deficiency or imbalance, said that without enough estrogen, there would be a period and rejected the idea as nonsense. Having researched the subject, I now know that estrogen deficiency can lead to severe bleeding and prolonged. It is also possible to be both low estrogen and estrogen dominant, at the same time. This is possible when one is too low in progesterone. A deficiency of progesterone can cause miscarriage, among other problems. Looking back, my hormonal imbalance existed much longer than I had realized. My last two miscarriages, many years before and several years apart, there was evidence of progesterone deficiency. Going further back, before successfully getting pregnant with my son, who had fibroids. I Chinese herbs to shrink tumors. While doctors and the tests revealed that the fibroids to be the potential cause of my miscarriages, and not a doctor finds the cause of fibroids progesterone deficiency. Progesterone deficiency alone could have caused the infertility, miscarriage, and fibroids. Chinese herbs were used as a temporary fix. Once I got my goal of getting pregnant, I forgot about them. At that time, I had not discovered BHRT. The problem returned after the birth of my son and continues to return each time you stop treatment because I still have a hormonal imbalance that I have to be constantly above. At least for now, means we periodically test my hormone levels. What doctors often recommendDoctors are really doing miracles. If not for them I would not be here today and certainly wouldnt have wanted to have a child without being under medical care. However, as I mentioned earlier about the medicine men, part of their education including pharmaceuticals and pharmaceutical companies make lots of incentive to recommend their products. The danger of RX drugs that accumulate in your body. Worse, the underlying problems still exist, which means more health problems down the road. But the big dollars come from surgeries. Below I've compiled a list of typical treatments. Notice a pattern What's missing What is wrong with this picture Hysterectomy vaginal bleeding / surgery, antidepressive drugs relievers Depression headache itching, burning, urinary incontinence antibiotics insomnia sleepaid Acid Reflux Peps AC and similar drugs is not a natural remedy! Natural remedies are better because they are healing. Take acid reflux, for example. Common resources, such as Tums AC and FIFO, are detrimental to the digestive system, a large part of our immune system. It seems natural treatments, such as a combination of probiotics, enzymes, and aloe vera to be even more effective. Even better, to help restore the proper balance so that the problem does not return. It should be obvious by now that Arent doctors interested in prevention. Some doctors, in fact, warn against the use of herbs. But while the herbs are concentrated and should be used with caution, there have been many deaths associated with taking prescription medication, even when following the orders of doctors. Furthermore, bioidentical hormones are derived from plants and are safe when used correctly. Because most herbs do work as soon as drugs, it is easy to write them off as ineffective. Do not be fooled. They are neither dangerous nor ineffective. Its advantages are many. BHRT goes to the root of the problem so that does not return, the side effects are usually few and mild, and once the cause is corrected other problems that may never happen. But do not write off traditional Western medicine or medicine prescribed for the moment. After losing my job and my insurance, I was forced to consider alternative medicine. What won instead, was the best of both worlds, and so can you. Herbs take longer to work, while Western medicine can be used not only to diagnose the problem, but to relieve symptoms. I use a combination of Eastern and Western medicine to save money, plus the knife and avoid unnecessary risks associated with surgery. Remember, you cannot undo the surgery. Herbs can be expensive, but not as expensive as a visit to the doctors or surgery and no recovery or downtime. Every time I go to see my Chinese herbal doctor or hormone, bring the results of tests including blood tests and ultrasounds. Similarly, I informed my regular doctor what herbal products I'm taking. Even if your doctor doesn't believe in herbs, they should know what is taking to avoid contraindications with prescription medicines. Decoding buzzwords: Bioidentical Hormones (BHRT) come from plants and are identical to hormones produced by our body. Synthetic hormones are caused by man. A mare gives some synthetic urine. Many conflicting reports about HRT are made in synthetic materials that are proving harmful side effects, such as cancer. However, due to its ability to be patented, that are backed by the pharmaceutical industry. Nobody wants to spend money in hormones that can be copied by other companies. Synthetics can be patented and no one can copy. Hot Water ablation is a procedure that cauterized veins in uterous to slow or stop the vaginal bleeding. Endocrinologist specializes in menopause.

Even then, most doctors treat one element (T3) of the thyroid with either levothyroxine (BHRT) or synthroid (HRT), neglecting the T4. The problem is that when the thyroid is not functioning properly, this can result in failure of the hormone reaches the body tissues at the cellular level. For example, my endocrinologist prescribed levothyroxine for treatment for my hypothyroidism and other evidence indicate that my thyroid levels returned to normal. However, continued to have a goiter and other symptoms such as weight gain and cold hands and feet until I went to a doctor who specializes in BHRT, who suggested that the supplements that visibly diminished my goiter and provides relief from my symptoms, including improvements in memory, energy level and mood.

Cortisol and DHEA are done here. DHEA produced by the adrenal gland is converted into testosterone. People with weak adrenals are fatigued around 4 pm, dizziness when standing after sitting, and the craving for sweets. Other symptoms can include burning adrenal insomnia, headaches, allergies, low sex drive, and insomnia. You may need iodine if your adrenals are burned (can be ordered in Energeticnutrition.com). Importance of thyroid disease AssessmentThyroid refers to both hypo and hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, but is by far the most common. Even mild hypothyroidism may have significant implications for health, early detection is so important.Urinary thyroid Evaluation of measures of free triiodothyronine (T3), free thyroxine (T4) and selenium in the 24 hour urine collection. There are several reasons why a study may be beneficial urinary thyroid: a sample collected over a period of 24 hours may better reflect the average behavior of the thyroid gland from hormone levels vary throughout the day. T3 and T4 in the urine of 24 hours may be more reliable. (Serum free T3 and T4 measurements are inherently difficult.Selenium is required to convert T4 to T3. A low level of 24 hours urinary selenium likely to be correlated with global selenium deficiency.Conditions and symptoms associated with the studies HypothyroidismCardiovascular DiseaseSome suggest that cholesterol increases with the increase of TSH while others refute this claim.

This sometimes leads to hormonal imbalances, including insulin resistance, so its hard to stay slim. Without However, hormonal imbalances can also occur at times in life before menopause such as premenstrual syndrome and during perimenopause. Symptoms can range from swelling of the feet and hands to the most severe symptoms, as many of the diseases we've come known as oldage diseases: stroke, cancer, diabetes, Altzheimers, Osteoporosis Perimenopause symptoms can be similar to PMS (estrogen dominance, progesterone deficiency, and hypothyroidism), and can lead to irregular or long periods abundant. Many times, doctors may prescribe sleeping pills, antidepressants, drugs, RX, and even surgery to women complain of symptoms of hormonal imbalance, when in fact, could have an endocrine problem having to do with cortisol and while this can relieve symptoms, hormonal imbalance remains a threat. Studies show that by restoring the estrogen / progesterone hormonal balance to normal, many women experience dramatic improvement.Estrogen: estradiol, estrone, estriolEstrogens pharmacist risksMy estrogen describes the relationship as follows: Think of it as three sisters. estradiol and estrone are bickering. estrone (the highest fat) is the most aggressive, while estriol (the highest during pregnancy) is the manufacturer of peace. In other words, the role of estriol, are still studying, is to counter the proliferation of cancer cells, including cancer promoted by its more powerful siblings, estrone and estradiol. In addition, fat cells make estrogen, a player important in prostate and breast cancer, most treatments are only estrogens estradiol and estrone. If we want to limit fat intake, therefore, estrone, Picardie's sister, best to avoid fatfree foods because the bodys response is to stick to fat if you think you are starving. Ironically, being diagnosed as estrogen dominant not necessarily mean having too much estrogen. It just means that there is too much relative to progesterone and, therefore, can be both with estrogen deficiency and estrogen dominant, at the same time You just even more deficient in Europe progesterone.Benefits estriol, estriol has been used for over four decades to successfully treat hot flashes, night sweats, and urinary problems and estriol is heavily investigated as a topical cream for face wrinkles in Europe (the purchase estro500.com). Estriol Bioidentical urinary incontinence: A Swedish study of 40 postmenopausal women with urinary incontinence up to ten years there was a 75 percent improvement treatment with bioidentical vaginal estriol. Eight of the participants who had lost the ability to regulate urination returned to normal. Estriol is the estrogen that is most beneficial to the vagina, cervix and vulva. In cases of vaginal dryness and atrophy, which predispose a woman to vaginitis and cystitis, estriol is currently the most effective and safest estrogen use. Estriol is recommended for the treatment of urinary tract infections and urinary incontinence and leakage. In a controlled study, 629 women suffering from stress and urge incontinence were treated with estriol, administered vaginally at a dose of 1.0 mg daily for three weeks, and 1.0 mg twice a week for a period of three weeks. Even a 82 percent improvement in symptoms of stress incontinence was noted. voluntary control and urinary urgency symptoms were improved by more than 80 percent of patients. The frequency was reduced almost 50 percent. vaginal lubrication was improved by 77 percent and painful intercourse was no longer present in 88 percent.According to this study group, the recommended dose for intravaginal estriol is 0.5 mg to 1 mg once daily for three weeks, 0.5 mg to 1 mg once a week for six months. If you use this treatment, should be examined to determine whether vaginal atrophy is improving. If you've improved, you can discontinue use or use estriol 0.5 mg to 1 mg once every two weeks for another six Prevents incontinence operation months.Simple extra four points can help prevent a lifetime of bladder problems in women. Dr. Linda Brubker Loyola University published a study in the New England Journal of Medicine April 13, 2006 that shows a simple technique could resolve years of problems in which surgery for uterine prolapse, a painful condition that occurs when the uterus sags in the birth canal. childbrith frequent increases the chances of this happening. Hundreds of thousands of women in North America have repair many more have surgery or hysterectomy (complete removal of the uterus) to solve the problem. Operation often leads to bladder problems, especially for leakage. However, the latter study found that only add four permanent stitches, two on each side of the vagina to the pelvic ligaments to form a hammock maintains stable urinary control muscle . If you have this type of surgery ask your surgeon to do this step. You can resolve years of leakage problems of the bladder. The Kegel exercise the bladder and vaginal muscles Remember to do your Kegel exercises every day to develop strong muscles the vagina, preventing prolapse of uterus and bladder and eliminate urinary incontinence, urinary frequency and more. If you sneeze or laugh and leakage of urine due to Kegel. Start by tightening the muscles of the vagina and urethra relax after , then squeeze the muscles relax again and do this often .... It is similar to the action we use to stop and start urine flow. Kegel exercises also strengthen weak bladder and do much more intense orgasms estriol . Bioidentical bone density: Japanese bioidentical estriol studies to improve bone density have shown a positive effect. The most powerful bioidentical estradiol reduces postmenopausal bone loss. Because BiEst and TriEst contains a combination of estriol with estradiol, these formulations may have positive effects on bone. Bioidentical Estrogens Estriol force counters: Bioidentical estriol in normal, low doses do not cause proliferation of the endometrial lining and does not cause proliferation of breast tissue . It also blocks and counters the action of estradiol and estrone stronger. The best use of bioidentical estriol is in combination with natural progesterone.Estrogen is responsible for: liningMaintains Regrowth of bladder tissue and estriol healthEffects moodEstradiol not used much in bhrtToo A. competes with thyroidB. cancerC within the uterus.

Estrogen is important in regulating the menstrual cycle, but too much can be toxic, creating a condition, estrogen (dominance) that comes with a number of harmful side effects. Progesterone is produced in the ovaries of menstruating women and the placenta during pregnancy. It is the highest during the two weeks before menustration and helps keep estrogen under control. Unfortunately, at the onset of menopause, during perimenopause, the decline in hormone production (including both progesterone and estrogen). This dramatically altered estrogen / progesterone relationship often leads to unopposed estrogen. As a result, the risk of breast cancer and endometrial / uterine cancer, fibrocystic breast pain, ovarian cysts, uterine fibroids and osteoporosis increases. Other symptoms include hypertension, salt retention and water, abnormal blood clotting, excessive body fat, and hypothyroidism. How traditional Western medicine is typically (PERI) symptomsWestern medical menopause menopause typically seen as an estrogen deficiency syndrome and prescribe Premarin, a synthetic estrogen source comes from the urine of a pregnant mare (other names include Prempro, Premphase, Prempac and Premelle). But when I went to my doctor about the bleeding and a prolonged period because it still had a period, my estrogen is considered acceptable , and I was prescribed medroxyprogesterone (synthetic progesterone) to stop until the bleeding can be scheduled for surgery, which later declined. medroxyprogesterone, manufactured by pharmaceutical companies to be much more powerful than the bodys own natural progesterone is metabolized as a foreign substance into the toxic metabolites, which can seriously interfere with the bodys own natural progesterone and further exacerbate estrogen dominance. Side effects include increased risk of cancer, abnormal menstrual bleeding, nausea, depression, effects of masculinizaci�n, y la retenci�n de l�quidos. Si bien a�n no ha detener el sangrado, sin otras opciones disponibles para m�, segu� este curso de tratamiento durante meses, mientras buscaba respuestas, hasta que un viaje a la sala de urgencias y una ecograf�a vaginal revel� un quiste ov�rico se hab�a desarrollado. Una prueba de la hormona de la saliva mostraron mis niveles de progesterona eran deficientes tambi�n. He de suponer que este tratamiento realmente exacerbar la dominaci�n del estr�geno. Pero no puedo estar seguro sin haber probado mis niveles hormonales antes de comenzar el tratamiento. Por eso es importante poner a prueba tus hormonas durante el tratamiento para ver qu� direcci�n se dirigen. Sin embargo, la alternativa, la cirug�a, no era la respuesta. Si yo hubiera aceptado una histerectom�a, la miomectom�a, la ablaci�n o cualquier otra cirug�a orientaci�n del �tero (el origen del sangrado, ardor y dolor, pero no la causa), me habr�a quedado desequilibrado y, por tanto, abierto a muchos otras enfermedades, incluyendo uterino intentos fallidos de endometrio y c�ncer de mama. Una mejor treatmentAfter en muchos remedios caseros que encontr� en el Internet, me acord� que yo hab�a usado con �xito las hierbas chinas para reducir los tumores fibroides antes de quedar embarazadas. me encontr� con un m�dico a base de hierbas chinas y se cur� en diez d�as.

Google wellness centers that practice bioidentical hormones or a compounding pharmacy in your area where you can have a baseline hormone test done. You can also order a saliva test kit online. The benefit of working with a pharmacist consultant is they are trained and knowledgeable and can help guide you. They should be able to recommend an endocrinologist specializing in bioidentical hormones as well as interpret the test results and can work with your doctor to suggest the best treatment. A blood test may be needed to test your thyroid function (TSH). Depending on your symptoms, you may also need to see a gyno that specializes in urology and can perform a pelvic exam using ultrasound.2. After having a baseline hormone test of estrogen , progesterone, TSH and complete blood panel, bring results to your compounding pharmacist. Make sure your tests include:a. Thyroid/adrenalsb. Lipidsc. 3 components of Estrogen: Estrone, estriol, estradiald. Testosteronee. Cortisols3. Pharmacist consultant will request a rx (for b. estradiol progesterone if needed) or you can get it online without a rx. He/she will tailor hormones to your needs based on doctors rx as determined by tests. 4. Most likely, at least in the beginning, you will take .5 mg Estriol 2x/day 12 hrs apart since it is in and out of the body so quickly plus progesterone beginning on day 7. If you bleed early, you may be taking either too much progesterone or not enough estriol and may need to have your blood levels checked again.5.

According to Suzanne Somers, bhrt given in a continuous combined way is harmful because combined hrt does not mimic normal physiology (but some DOs disagree with this). She goes on to say that if prescribed this way by your doctor, you will not have a period and will become insulin resistant since high progesterone levels block the action of insulin. Signs of insulin resistance are weight gain and a craving for sweets. According to her, even though the hormones are natural, this is harmful because daily low doses of estradiol and high doses of progesterone result in the same risk of disease as with synthetic hormones. Cortisol and insulin levels will rise higher than normal when taking hormones in a way which does not mimic how our bodies work naturally. She concludes that hormones should be taken in a cycling manner as opposed to combined continuous ( in other words, estrogen and progesterone every day). Doctors charge upwards of $200 for a consultation alone before even laying a hand on you.

Dr. Willett was a lead investigator in the Nurses Health Study. Our conversation quickly turned to the abrupt cancellation by the NIH of the study of combined estrogen and progestin hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in healthy menopausal women. The study was cancelled due to a finding that the treatment resulted in an increased risk of invasive breast cancer. Dr. Willett agreed with me that: 1) the results were not surprisingas he and his colleagues have been releasing this information for years; and 2) it is naive to think the manufacturer, WyethAyerst, didnt know this years before. They basically murdered thousands of women by allowing them to get breast cancer, heart attacks, and strokes, using an unsafe product. It took the NIH five years to deem this therapy unsafe. However, the products have been on the market for over 50 years. The NIH budgeted $600 million to fund the complete 8year study that was stopped after only 5 years. WyethAyerst and their parent company, American Home Products (who also brought us Fen/Phen) have made billions of dollars selling Premarin and Provera. This company, the worlds 10th largest, posted global earnings of $3.22 billion last year, up from $3.03 billion the previous year. Much of this increase was from consumer advertising, using stars like Patti Labelle and Lauren Hutton. American Home Products made $522 million dollars selling vitamins like Centrum in just one quarter. With that kind of money they could have easily paid for this study years ago if they had consumer interest in mind. Their interest is profits. Medical SilenceThe medical profession has to share in the blame of this national disgrace, in particular, teaching institutions. Pharmaceutical companies spent about $60 billion in 2000 financing 70 percent of the clinical drug trials. Academic centers vie for these dollars to keep their departments going. This creates a severe conflict of interest that leads to a tainted flow of information to the general medical population. A survey of 192 medical experts in the Feb. issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association revealed that 90 percent of said experts had some type of financial relationship with a drug manufacturer, including research financing, speaking and consulting fees. You wonder how on earth it took 50 years for the dangers of Premarin and Provera to come to light. Silence from medical experts was paid for. Also bought was the proclamation from medical experts about the many benefits of Premarin and Provera. The Dept of Ob/Gyn here at Texas Tech Medical School (my alma mater) receives more than one income stream from Wyeth and routinely brings in Wyeth subsidized experts to train a new generation of physicians about the benefits of Premarin and Provera. Synthetic HRTThe downplaying of the risk of using animalderived and synthetic HRT is even more despicable. The spin doctors calmly stated that for every 10,000 women on HRT during one year, only eight more will have invasive breast cancer, only seven more will have a heart attack, only eight more will have a stroke, and only 18 more will have blood clots. Sounds benign, doesnt it It does, until you do the math. There are 810 million women currently using HRT, according to Dr. Willett. Using conservative numbers, that adds up to 6,4008,000 cases of invasive breast cancer, 5,6007,000 heart attacks, 6,4008,000 strokes, and 14,40018,000 cases of blood clots to organs such as the lungs. That adds up to 32,800 cases of drug induced morbidity EACH YEAR!!! If only 1/10th of these women died, that would be equivalent to having a 9/11type disaster each year. Were looking for the wrong terrorists. And these numbers dont include other side effects of this therapy such as fluid retention, weight gain, gallbladder disease, vaginal bleeding, depression, diabetes, and reduction of the cancer fighting B vitamin, folate. Environmental Effects of HRTUnfortunately the harm that these drugs do doesnt stop with women. Once they go through the liver they are conjugated to make even more potent hormone analogs. These are then excreted as human waste and flushed down toilets into lakes, streams and rivers. An EPA scientist first detected drug contamination in our waterways 30 years ago, according to Christian Daughton, chief of environmental chemistry for the EPA. If you know the chemistry of estrogens and progestins you can extrapolate some disturbing explanations for the increase in many common diseases. Estrogens increase cell multiplication in estrogensensitive tissues, a cornerstone in the causation of cancer. The association of Premarin with breast and uterine cancer is well established, but most physicians are still unaware that the prostate is an estrogensensitive tissue, also. The prostate is formed from the same embryonic cells as the uterus. Why has the incidence of prostate cancer gone up each year since Premarin was introduced These same estrogens are effective in causing premature puberty in girls (a risk factor for breast cancer) and breast tissue growth in boys. Ask any older pediatrician if these are new developments since the introduction of Premarin. Estrogens facilitate the growth of yeast in the body. Yeast causes inflammation in body tissues, like the lungs, similar to the inflammation seen in diaper rash and vaginitis. Asthma is another disease marked by inflammation, and it has become epidemic. Ive cured most cases of adult onset asthma in my practice by treating patients with antifungals. Estrogens increase brain activity by speeding up neuronal transmission, facilitating neurotransmitter production and increasing nerve connections. Sounds like a good thing, and indeed it is when it allows a woman to perceive the sniffle of a newborn while dad sleeps through. However, in the brain of a male child who doesnt have much of the antiestrogen effect of progesterone, you can predict ADD and ADHD. Estrogens inhibit thyroid function. There is an epidemic of false negative hypothyroidism (clinical hypothyroidism in the face of normal lab values) here in the U.S. according to top endocrinologists like Ridha Arem at Baylor Medical School. Hypothyroidism then leads to a cluster of other problems like chronic fatigue, depression, carpal tunnel syndrome and osteoarthritis. These associations may seem a stretch to the uneducated, but validated estrogen chemistry is the link that ties them all together. The results from the NIH study with Premarin and Provera are just the tip of a big iceberg. I deem it criminal for them to continue the Premarin only arm of the study. We know too much about the cancercausing effects of this drug. Human hormone analogs have been available here for over 20 years, and it makes no more sense to continue using horse estrogen than it does to continue using pig insulin. Premarin continues to be prescribed because it makes cents! Roby Mitchell, MD, trains doctors and pharmacists on the adverse impacts of deficiencies in estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid hormone, growth hormone and DHEA in men and women, and the benefits that can be achieved through replacement therapy using bioidentical, rather than synthetic hormones.tid bits (things you should know)Check your Ph balance. If acidic, your liver is not working as efficiently as possible and you may become estrogen dominant as estrogen starts to accumulate in the body. If you have a weak liver, drink plenty of water to help cleanse. Ironically, fruits, which would seem to add to your acidity, actually help you to become less acidic. Mercury behaves as estrogen.

Introduction: The average woman ovulates about 400 times between puberty and menopause, usually at intervals of approximately 28 days. If an egg is fertilized, the pregnancy continues, otherwise the uterine lining is shed during menstruation.

AlexisBlaise Kenne said, the symptoms of breast cancer may be experienced by men and women, but breast cancer is very rare in men compared with women. More than 1 in 10 women are prone to suffer from symptoms of breast cancer and be diagnosed with breast cancer in life. The symptoms of breast cancer can be detected when a lump, a tumor or cyst grows large enough to be or felt or seen on a mammogram. Sometimes a tumor is not for many years. The breast cancer symptoms often do not manifest themselves until the cancer is already in its final stages, and may have spread to other more vital areas of the body. So it is so important for women who receive regular checked.Breast cancer symptoms are often subtle, and selfdiscovery can be elusive. Due to the high incidence of breast cancer among older women, the selection is recommended in many countries.Lumps or lumps in the breast are not unusual, and most of them are not cancerous. Some breast masses can be felt during a breast exam.Lump may form in the breast, chest or under the arm if the cancer is within or near the chest wall. Also notice a change in the size, shape and skin of the breast.Earlier diagnosis of breast cancer always involves the removal of the breast and surrounding skin, the muscles under the breast and lymph nodes under the arm. Today the method of diagnosis is advanced without the above mentioned procedure radical mastectomy.Among young women, a lump that moves may be a sign of fibrocystic breast disease. But simply to ask questions is not enough, a combination of tests is used to make a final diagnosis.Generally, breast cancer is a much more aggressive disease in younger women. In general, a lump that is cancerous will not touch, it will be difficult, unfurnished, and size does not change quickly (within several days or weeks). If the nodule is sensitive, could be a cyst or swollen lymph node. Genetic counseling and genetic testing should be considered for families who may carry a heritidary form cancer.Inflammatory breast cancer is an uncommon type of breast cancer, including breast swelling is hot, red and swollen.The is because cancer cells block the lymph vessels in the skin of the breast. Not always imply a lump.Breast cancer is a common disease. Each year, approximately 200,000 women in the United States are diagnosed with breast cancer, and one in nine American women will develop breast cancer in their lifetime. Breast cancer occurs much more frequently in women and less than 1 in 100 of breast cancers occur in men. In the UK, approximately 250 men are diagnosed with breast cancer each year. Breast cancer begins in cells of the breast. The breast tissue covers an area larger than breast.Women one of these defects have up to 80% chance of getting breast cancer sometime in her life. Women who attend retreats Infinite limits are in all stages of breast cancer. Some are newly diagnosed, while others may have been treated for breast cancer years ago. Women who drink alcohol have a slightly higher risk. The more you drink, the greater its riskWomen had little knowledge of their relative risk of developing breast cancer, associated risk factors and the diversity of potential breast cancerrelated symptoms. Older women are particularly poor at identifying symptoms of breast cancer, risk factors associated with breast cancer and their personal risk of developing the disease. Women sometimes have lumps in breasts that have been there for a lifetime. They're usually harmless fibroids, and never conclusively mean that developed breast cancer. Women are very aware of their breast care. Beautiful and healthy breast is one of the most cherished dreams of women. br br

Alcohol consumption and the ovaries and chronic heavy drinking can lead to the malfunctioning of the ovaries, causing hormonal deficiencies, sexual dysfunction, infertility, menstrual irregularities, and soon to menopause.Alternatives postmenopausal HRT: All women can take healthy lifestyles, such as not smoking, regular exercise and good nutrition. Moreover, prescription drugs such as statins or betablockers, are available for levels of blood lipids or blood pressure levels. A healthy lifestyle can also help reduce a woman's risk of bone loss. In addition, health professionals also recommend calcium and vitamin D as a means of preventing osteoporosis. Other drugs such as raloxifene, tibolone, alendronate and risedronate have been shown to prevent bone loss. These drugs are increasingly becoming the preferred treatment for postmenopausal osteoporosis in many women. The investigational drug PTH (parathyroid hormone) is another prevention approach is being evaluated in clinical trials . against PMS: Eat right to combat the symptoms of PMS. Studies have shown that certain foods can help alleviate PMS symptoms. These include complex carbohydrates such as pasta, vegetables and whole grain breads and cereals. Avoid foods containing caffeine Cola, coffee and chocolate can trigger the symptoms of PMS . device to treat fibroids wins approval: The Food and Drug Administration U.S. has approved a medical device to shrink cancerous tumors Uterine fibroids, saving women from painful surgery to remove them. The device, aimed at women who no longer intend to become pregnant, it could also save many from having to have hysterectomies, where the uterus is removed completely. Made from a material called Embosphere microspheres, the product is used in less invasive surgical procedures include uterine artery embolization (UAE), designed to block blood flow to tumors and reduce their size. In clinical trials sponsored by the device manufacturer, Biosphere Medical Inc., 132 women with uterine fibroids were treated at seven hospitals across the United States. After six months, 65 per cent of women had established a 50 percent or more reduction of bleeding attributed to fibroids. As a condition of approval, the company is obliged to follow study participants for at least three years to assess longterm effects of treatment, including whether the fibroids tend to return, the FDA said . To help relieve hot flashes during menopause: Wear loosefitting, lightweight clothing from natural fibers. Limit your intake of beverages containing caffeine or alcohol. Avoid eating spicy foods. Drink plenty of cold drinks, especially water. Avoid hot drinks . To ease the ups and downs of menopause Exercise regularly to energy and relieve stress. Find and talk to other women who have or are going through menopause. Avoid stressful situations whenever possible. Incorporate relaxation techniques into your daily life. Meditation, yoga and massage can help relieve stress and emotional turmoil you are going through. Eat a nutritious, well balanced diet and consult your doctor about taking vitamin supplements. facilitate vaginal dryness during menopause: Avoid using deodorant soaps or scented products in the vaginal area . Use watersoluble lubricants during intercourse. Avoid using oils and petroleum products, these can lead to infection. Hormone Therapy Doubles Dementia Risk: combined hormone therapy doubles women risk of dementia and Alzheimer's disease. The combined hormone therapy also does not protect against mild cognitive impairment, a less severe loss of mental function, and increases the risk of stroke . hormone test interrupted due to cancer, heart risk: Researchers announced they have ended one of the largest and best designed studies of hormone replacement therapy because women who taking hormones after menopause had an increased risk of breast cancer, myocardial infarction, stroke and blood clots than those not taking medication. More than 6 million women in the U.S. currently taking estrogen / progestin combination therapy for a variety of reasons, including relief of hot flashes and other menopausal symptoms. The hope and hype has been that hormones also confer a number of advantages, including lower risk of heart disease. The study suggests that when women take the drugs for more than about 5 years, the risks of the hormones outweigh the benefits . medicines available without prescription and Menopause: Many women find relief from shortterm menopauserelated changes with nonprescription remedies, such as estrogencontaining foods (soy products, cereal grains, seeds, certain fruits and vegetables) and creams, certain herbs like black cohosh, and vitamin E and vitamin B complex. Researchers are studying the safety and efficacy of these therapies. Premises not available hormone therapy for vaginal dryness and urinary bladder conditions . Pap test guidelines reviewed: The American Cancer Society has revised its guidelines on Pap tests, recommendation of the first women at low risk of cervical cancer do not need them. The revisions are designed to spare women from unnecessary, invasive medical procedures. The new guidelines say that the evidence is not necessary for young women who are sexually active women aged 70 years who have had normal Pap tests in the past, and women who have had hysterectomies for reasons related to non cancer. We also recommend that sexually active women begin having Pap tests within three years of starting sexual activity, but no later than age 21. The problem with Pap smears, according to experts who wrote the new guidelines is that no cancerous lesions detected, so physicians to perform additional tests to worry patients needlessly cost money and sometimes have perverse effects, as reducing fertility. risk factor for gynecologic cancer: A major risk factor associated with gynecologic cancers is not have children . RU 486: After years of waiting, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA ) has finally approved the abortion pill also known as mifepristone (RU 486, o) and within a month, doctors can prescribe the drug to women in their first seven weeks of pregnancy. But getting the RU 486 is not as easy as, for example, get your Rx filled allergy pills. The FDA has determined that each recipe must be accompanied by a booklet of 486 RU. In addition, doctors who prescribe it should be able to perform a surgical abortion or make prior arrangements with a doctor who can, if not the mifepristone regimen, as in about 5% of cases. Treatment with the drug (marketed as Mifeprex) involves three visits. Here's the breakdown: Step 1: The patient takes three pills of mifepristone, which blocks the action of progesterone, the hormone that prepares the uterus for pregnancy. Step 2: Two days later, the patient takes another medicine to initiate uterine contractions that expel the fertilized egg. (The pain, bleeding and discomfort are the possible side effects.) Step 3: The patient has a followup visit with your doctor, two weeks later to confirm the abortion is complete . sexually transmitted diseases and cancer: Leave your condoms: Doctors have recently linked chlamydia, a very common STD, with an increased risk of developing cervical cancer. While the human papillomavirus (HPV) has been recognized as the leading cause of cervical cancer which now strikes 13,000 women a year the role of chlamydia is less clear. Chlamydia is the most common bacterial STD, with 4 million to 8 million new cases diagnosed each year. Unlike HPV, which can be treated with antibiotics, but since the infection often causes no symptoms, many women carry the disease without knowing it. This finding gives doctors a new reason for women for chlamydia as part of their annual gynecological checkups . STD Complications: Some STDs can spread into the uterus (womb) and fallopian tubes to cause pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), which in turn is a major cause of infertility and ectopic (tubal) . The latter can be fatal. Sexually transmitted diseases in women may also be associated with cervical cancer. One of STD infection human papillomavirus (HPV) causes genital warts and cervical and other genital cancers. STDs can be transmitted from mother to baby before, during or immediately after birth, some of these neonatal infections can be cured easily, but others may cause the baby to be permanently incapacitated or die. tampons and Diagnosis of sexually transmitted diseases: STDs (Sexually Transmitted Disease) testing for now is easier and far less embarrassing. South African researchers have started using tampons to diagnose sexually transmitted disease trichomoniasis, which causes vaginal itching and discharge can increase the chances of a woman of having a premature or low birthweight. About 1,000 women insert a normal buffer for 15 minutes. Tampons are stored in a saline solution and transported to a laboratory where the tests were conducted. The test buffer was very effective not only to the detection of trichomonas, chlamydia and gonorrhea, but as well.Postpartum: Substitute Breast Massage Breast Massage alternative, not only to increase milk production, but also the production of milk containing more fat and more calories. You make a breast massage for almost the exact way to do a monthly breast selfexam. While breastfeeding (after your baby has stopped sucking vigorously) or pump having two fingers and from the armpit and goes around your chest, gently massage in a circular motion.Breastfeeding and Contraception: breastfeeding is not a form of birth control. Many couples have been deceived and have had Irish twins as a direct result. You should consult your OB / GYN about appropriate forms of birth control for breastfeeding mothers . No postpartum buffers: A woman with postpartum should not use tampons until after your OB / GYN endorsed its use. The buffers increase the likelihood of a vaginal or uterine . care after childbirth: pain perineum after childbirth can be reduced with the use of a rubber glove filled with ice cubes and applies to the area of 20 minutes, 20 minutes off and repeat . adequate Breast Care: Women in the postpartum period, especially nursing mothers, should wash the chest with a liquid antibacterial soap such as Dial at least one once daily to prevent mastitis, a painful infection of the breast tissue. Using a clean, support is also a necessity.Pregnancy and Birth: Autism associated with smoking in early pregnancy women who smoke regularly during the early stages of pregnancy may increase the risk of autism in their children up to 40 and percent.Coffee Pregnancy Moms should take a break from coffee caffeine crosses the placenta and large quantities can result in low birthweight infants . Exercise and Pregnancy: contact forms of exercise is encouraged during a normal pregnancy. Both the woman and baby benefit from regular activities, like walking and swimming . Fats and nausea : A diet high in fat increases the chances of a pregnant woman to have problems with nausea . Fetal Alcohol Syndrome: Each year from 4000 to 12,000 babies are born with physical signs and intellectual disabilities associated with FAS (fetal alcohol syndrome), and thousands more the experience of disability somewhat less than the effects of fetal alcohol . Fish Pregnant women should not eat: The FDA advises pregnant women not eat four species of fish that contain more high levels of mercury: shark, swordfish, king mackerel, and tilefish, also known as golden or white snapper . folic acid and pregnancy: Take the B vitamin folic acid recommended levels early in pregnancy can help prevent certain birth defects . Healthy Pregnancy Diet: A healthy diet for a pregnant woman consists of portions of the 4 food groups with emphasis on dairy products, foods high in folic acid, as orange juice, and foods high in iron such as liver. Keep foods high in sodium content to a minimum. Sodium water retention occurs . heartburn during pregnancy: Heartburn is a common complaint pregnant women due to increased abdominal pressure caused by the fetus. Tums are a safe method of heartburn relief . Hemorrhoids Treatment: Pregnant women frequently hemorrhoids, due to experience increased pressure on the rectal area caused by the developing baby. A simple and inexpensive treatment is witch hazel. Apply to hemorrhoids with a cotton ball 3 to 4 times per day . breastfeeding Planning mother If you are planning on breastfeeding your baby, your nipples harden while pregnant by rubbing vigorously with a towel after bathing or showering. It will lessen the chance of sore nipples when nursing . pregnant women should have strep Test group B: All pregnant women should be routinely screened for GBS, a major cause of illness and death among newborns. Group B streptococcus (GBS), or quot; estreptococoquot;, can cause serious infections such as meningitis in newborns. Babies can be infected with the bacterium during labor and delivery, pregnant women are screened for GBS during the last weeks of pregnancy. Women infected with streptococcus can be treated with antibiotics to reduce the risk of transmission of infection . Pregnant women should limit tuna consumption: pregnant women who eat too much tuna risk of exposing their unborn babies quot; developing brains, possibly harmful mercury levels, but there is need for women to cut fish of high nutritional value of the diet completely. Two sixounce cans of tuna a week is fine if that is the only fish they eat, or six single can if other seafood, which may also contain mercury, is part of their diet. Sex during pregnancy Sex during pregnancy is safe until the time of rupture of membranes (water break) as long as there have been complications during pregnancy . Smog and Pregnancy: Women exposed to high levels of ozone and carbon monoxide were three times more likely than others to have babies with cleft lips and palates and defective heart valves . itchy skin dry skin treatment in the abdomen: abdominal stretching during pregnancy causes dry.

Mammography screening not increase your chances of being cured ... Or

Mammography screening not increase your chances of being cured ... Or survive LONGERPosted: Farid fmEarly diagnosis of breast cancer by mammography produces high cure rates and longer survival without increasing the number of women cured or prolong their life. � How can that be It is a sleight of hand with numbers.Survival, when it comes to breast cancer statistics, is defined as living five years after diagnosis of cancer. The Cure is defined as the disease being free five years after diagnosis. A woman dies of breast cancer more than five years after his diagnosis still can be included in the statistics as a quot; curaquot;. A woman with slowgrowing cancer of the breast with metastasis to live, on average, 15 years after the onset of cancer. A mammogram can detect a slowgrowing cancer of the breast when it comes eight years. (15 to 8 = 7 years.) If this woman dies seven years after his diagnosis, which is counted as quot; curadoquot;, because he lived for more than 5 years.The same slow growth of breast cancer metastasis will be 11 or 12 years after its start, when he noticed a woman who does not touch or have regular breast mammograms. (Women who are breast selfexamination regularly or breast selfmassage usually notice a slowgrowing cancer nine years after its creation, only a twofold larger than the visible light with a mammogram.) This woman will live as long as women whose cancer is discovered by mammogram, but can not be quot; curarquot; did not want to live for five years. (15 to 11 = 4 years). Healing is only a statistic. There is no difference in the number of years lived after the onset of cancer, no difference in life span, only a difference in the number of years lived after T diagnosis.AREN # 39; MAMMOGRAMS RESCUE for women over 55 In several studies, annual mammograms for women over 55 years and reduced breast cancer mortality by one third. But this does not mean no risk of a woman is reduced by one third, according to Dr. Peter Skrabenek, a critic of mass screening. Moreover, women who participated in these studies received mammographic very successful regular physical examination of her breasts, which by itself, without the risk reduce mortality from breast cancer. The vast majority of breast cancers in older women are slow growing, metastases, and not life threatening, no matter when found.IS THERE A less risky way to participate in mammography The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and the national health plans in England, Holland, Italy and Sweden, mammography screening is recommended no more than every two years and only after menopause. Several studies show no benefit to annual mammograms. Once every two or three years gives the same reduction in mortality for five years, with less radiation risk to individuals and society, and in much less cost.ARE THERE OTHER ways to find breast cancer early Addition to physical examination and breast selfmassage, thermography and ultrasound safety tests are available to women wishing to avoid mammograms. Thermography gives an idea of the heat patterns in breast (cancer are hotter than the surrounding tissues). Ultrasound bounces sound waves off the breast tissue to measure its density (the cancer is more dense than the surrounding tissues). Other techniques used in breast tissue of the image, as digital mammography and dependent on the radioactivity scans and are inherently unsafe.IF decide to have a MAMMOGRAMGet the best, even if it means a long journey.Go where they specialize in preference when they do at least 20 mammograms a day.Be sure the facility is accredited by the American College of Radiology.Insist on staff who specialize in mammography. (Taking the reading and mammograms are skills that require intensive training and a lot of practice.) Request the age of the team is. New equipment breasts exposed to less radiation. A special unit (one specifically for mammography) is best.Ask how to ensure quality control. When his unit was calibrated Upload your blood with carotene for one week before the mammogram to prevent radiation damage to his DNA.Expect be cold and discomfort during mammography, but not say anything if you're being more compressed hurt.The of tissue breast, mammography clearer. (But pressure can spread cancer cells if present.) If your breasts are tender, reschedule. During their childbearing years, mammograms 710 calendar days after using antiperspirant t begins.Don their menstrual flow, which contains aluminum, but may interfere with the imaging process. (These stones contain aluminum clear, as most commercial deodorants do). If you want another opinion, you have the original mammogram films, not copies. (Xray services only keep the movies for 7 years.) Get your doctor to agree, in writing, before the procedure, to give a copy of your mammogram. The U.S. Public Health Service recommends that women seek in writing the results of a large percentage of the mammogram.Given quot; normalquot false; of mammography, if you think you have cancer, trust your intuition.Remove radioactive isotopes of his body burdock root, seaweed, or miso.Mammograms not promote breast health. Breast selfmassage, breast selfexam, and changes in lifestyle do.Women discover breast cancer have the most time (90% of the time according to a study of English). Monthly breast selfexam (or breast selfmassage) provides early detection at a lower cost, without risk and more pleasure that each year of breast cancer detection mammograms.Most (80%) are slow growing, taking between 42 and 300 days to double in size. A yearly mammogram could find these cancers 816 months before they can feel, but this quot; precozquot detection, does little to improve the already excellent longevity of women with slow growth, not a breast metastasis cancers.The 20% of breast cancers are fastgrowing are the troublemakers. You can double in size in 21 days. Monthly breast selfexaminations are much more likely to find these cancers are aggressive annual mammograms. (A 21double cancer day is visible on a mammogram just six weeks before they can be felt.) If you examine your breasts massage or six times a year, you can take action faster and faster chips. If you rely solely on mammograms, cancer can grow undetected for months.In a look at the last 60,000 breast cancer diagnoses in the United States, 67% were found by the woman or her doctor and more than half of these were not visible on a mammogram while 33% were discovered by mammography. (This may seem a large number of cancers found by mammography, but most of them were in situ cancers, a controversial type of cancer you can but often not progress to invasive cancer.)

While women with compulsive eating problems will really ratchet into high gear when they are premenstrual, even women whose eating patterns are normal, will realize higher cravings during the week before my daughter and I periods.When PMS was researching our book, quot; mean you do not have to feel this way quot;, we wanted to know if there are medical reasons for women experience menstrual cravings pronounced. To find out, we went to scientists who were the first researchers on the subject. Dr. Richard J. Wurtman, professor of neurology and brain chemistry and his wife, Dr. Judith Wurtman, a cell biologist and nutritionist, were the first to discover the fascinating data in both the quot; by qu�quot; of carbohydrate cravings and premenstrual new way to tame the beast. His research showed that depression, cravings for carbohydrates, and other symptoms of PMS can be significantly reduced with antidepressant medication or judgments eat certain foods that are rich in complex carbohydrates. His theory is that supplying the brain with a minimum of good (complex) carbohydrates prevents women starving themselves and going wild. � How to get to this theory To find out, my daughter Gabrielle and I interviewed Judith Wurtman at an office near his lab at MIT. Wurtman told us he had begun to think in a scientific basis for premenstrual cravings after hearing countless stories of their female patients about changes in their eating habits at the time of menstruation. quot; Just before their periods many have an overwhelming desire for sweets and starchy foods. Hear say quot; I could kill for chocolate! quot; The Wurtmans wanted to know if women really increase your intake of food the sweet and starchy food in particular quot; or just think they do it because his desire is so pronunciada.quot; These researchers analyzed a group women who were experiencing symptoms of PMS and another group who were not. All were given a choice of a variety of foods some high in carbohydrates (potatoes, rice, cookies, candy, crackers), and other high protein (chicken, cheese, tuna salad). quot; What encontramosquot, said Judith told us, quot; was that women with premenstrual syndrome were eating large amounts of foods rich in carbohydrates, but only for about three or four days before their periods. The control of women women without PMS Do not t increase their food intake throughout quot;. The two scientists had the same women consumed a meal of carbohydrates at the beginning and end of their menstrual cycle. The food was a big bowl of cornflakes quot; a neutral, highcarbohydrate foods of carbonoquot, said Judith Wurtman. Before eating dinner mood of women have tried Is it happy, sad, irritable And again an hour later. The reason for this Eating a large carbohydrate meal increases the level of serotonin in the brain, Wurtman continued. quot; And when serotonin in the brain that there is greater improvement in certain types of emotional states. People feel less depressed, calmer, less irritable, more focused, less confusing, less distracted, more tranquil. We knew that if carbohydrates in this case corn flakes are going to do anything, I probably would by increasing serotonin. quot; After the meal, the women reported that they were actually less depressed. quot; They were substantially quieter, much less tired and more alertaquot;, Wurtman said. quot; This was a wonderful discovery because it means that when women choose to eat carbohydrates at the end of their menstrual cycle, they are doing in order to feel better. And we confirmed that this brain chemical, serotonin may be involved in some of the mood swings of PMS. quot; And what about eating more carbohydrates premenstrual Wurtman told us that she thinks that in the week or so before they get their periods of women must go to a quot; highcarbohydrate comer.quot mode; This high intake of carbohydrates will not continue forever, because it has its own natural beginning, middle and end. And, of course, as a way of eating does not mean fat. What Wurtman was suggested that premenstrual women eating complex carbohydrates like rice, potatoes, pasta, lentils, beans, quot; along with, perhaps, some sweet carbohydrates if your desire is strong enough for alimentos.quot; The Wurtmans were among the pioneers the use of antidepressants in the treatment of premenstrual syndrome, in the 80 and 90. Today, the gold standard for medical treatment of PMS is a very low dose of antidepressant medication must be taken only during PMS week. Unlike antidepressant drugs taken for depression, which can take weeks to build at an appropriate level in the bloodstream, the same drug used to treat premenstrual syndrome shows a positive effect on the day of the first to suffer taken.Women both depression and premenstrual syndrome often find that they become depressed and / or irritable during the week before their periods, even when the drug protects the mood swings the rest of the month. In such cases, suggests adding psychopharmacologist very low doses of other medicines sometimes drops Prozac week.About only during the premenstrual AuthorColette Dowling, LMSW, is a psychotherapist in private practice in New York.

Some data suggest that inflammation that cause insulin resistance. Researchers at the University of California at San Diego argue that the inflammation induced by immune cells called macrophages leads to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Their research in mice indicates that in the absence of inflammation, obesity alone does not cause insulin resistance. This means that according to this study, some inflammatory mediators are necessary for the development of insulin resistance.If this is true, one can extrapolate the data indicate that women with PCOS do not develop insulin resistance unless the Inflammation is also implicated. This really makes sense, would have to prove that all women with PCOS have signs of inflammation. This is easier said than done! Research published in 2005, an examination of insulin resistance and inflammatory markers in obese and nonobese women with PCOS showed that all women with PCOS had elevated levels of inflammatory markers.On Moreover, a study published in European Union Journal of Endocrinology in 2004 concluded that PCOS is not necessarily related to inflammation after comparing the levels of inflammatory markers CRP and IL6 in women with PCOS with a control group. The authors write, quot; ... BMI was the parameter most closely associated with IL6 and CRP in PCOS ... In PCOS, the risk of type 2 diabetes may ... be limited to people with obesity and / or metabolic alterations rather than affecting all women suffering from the syndrome quot;. In other words, lean women with PCOS may be less likely to have elevated inflammatory markers as their overweight counterparts PCOS.A with similar trend was also noted in a 2003 study examining the effects of metformin therapy reducing CRP levels in women with PCOS, where researchers suggest that elevated CRP is associated with obesity rather than PCOS itself.Another article published in September 2007 in Gynecological Endocrinology found that obesity, rather than inflammatory markers, represented the biggest factor in predicting whether women with PCOS will develop heart disease and / or type 2 diabetes.Perhaps the contradictory results may reflect the fact that the community of women with PCOS is very diverse, not only ethnic but phenotypically (ie, the physical manifestation of the disease). Moreover, these studies have a relatively small number of participants, usually less than 100 people. Both factors may confound the attempt to simplify the issues of finding the underlying cause of PCOS and even the historical difficulty in establishing criteria for the diagnosis PCOS.In definitive conclusion, we clearly need more studies with larger number of participants to determine the relationship between inflammation and insulin resistance in PCOS, and how these factors relate to hormonal imbalance and cardiovascular risk factors. This is important because it could dictate changes in treatment strategies for women with PCOS. In addition, more attention should be paid attention to the ethnic diversity of this population with a focus on trends in the future consideration of the specific ethnic groups.About the AuthorFor more about insulin resistance, inflammation and hormonal changes of PCOS, please visit www. pcos.insulitelabs.com. Dr. Sari CohenPMS And Back Painite is no secret that many women suffer through their monthly periods, experiencing cramps, bloating and lower back pain, to name a few. However, a large number of themestimated anywhere from 30 to 90 percentalso endure the symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Most women feel some discomfort before their periods. But if you have PMS may feel so anxious, depressed or uncomfortable that you can not cope at home or work.What causes PMS Nobody knows for sure what causes PMS or why some months are worse than others, but PMS is often linked to changes in hormone levels that occur during a woman's menstrual cycle. PMS is not caused by stress or psychological problems, although they may worsen symptoms. quot; probably not enough magnesium to dietaquot, says Dr. Carolyn Dean, who specializes in managing and healing commonly misdiagnosed as chronic diseases such as hormonal imbalance, and mood swings. quot; The recommended daily allowance of magnesium is 350400 milligrams (mg) per day, but for optimal health you may have the doble.quot; Dean, who serves on the medical advisory board of the Institute of Health Back, suggests taking magnesium supplements to prevent or ease PMS symptoms, including back pain due to water retention. She recommends magnesium citrate and taurate and spraying magnesium oil that is absorbed through your skin.Some researchers have found that calcium levels are lower in women with PMS and that calcium supplementation can reduce the severity of symptoms. One study, for example, reported that 300 mg of calcium carbonate four times a day significantly reduced bloating, depression, pain and mood swings.How is PMS diagnosed There is no single test to diagnose PMS, but because thyroid disease is common in women of childbearing age, and because some of the symptoms of weight PMSsuch as gainare similar to symptoms of thyroid disease, the doctor may do a thyroid test. This can help rule out a thyroid problem as the cause of their symptoms. Often a doctor will suggest you keep a diary to track your symptoms for a few months.How is PMS usually treated Drugs that are commonly prescribed include diuretics to help rid the body of excess sodium and fluid, which can ease bloating, weight gain, chest pain, abdominal pain and backache. Antidepressants can help with the severe irritability, depression and anxiety that some women with premenstrual syndrome. Los m�dicos a menudo recetan p�ldoras anticonceptivas para ayudar a reducir algunos s�ntomas del s�ndrome premenstrual por la noche a los niveles hormonales durante su cycle.Experts tambi�n recomendamos que realice algunos cambios en la dieta sencilla y estilo de vida. Estos incluyen comer m�s hidratos de carbono complejos (tales como panes integrales, pasta y cereales), m�s fibra y prote�na, y m�s alimentos ricos en potasio (como el pescado, frijoles, y el br�coli). Otras cosas que puede hacer: reducir el consumo de az�car y grasas, evitar la sal yodada (para reducir la hinchaz�n y la retenci�n de l�quidos) tratar las sales marinas, eliminar o reducir el consumo de cafe�na y alcohol, tener al menos ocho horas de sue�o cada noche, y recibe regularmente aer�bica exerciseeven un corto paseo cada d�a puede ayudar. De hecho, la investigaci�n ha demostrado que de frequencyrather ejercicio puede disminuir la intensidad del PMS symptoms.Are hay tratamientos alternativos Seg�n un estudio realizado en 2004 en el diario de medicina alternativa y complementaria, una intervenci�n sin drogas que pueden proporcionar alivio del s�ndrome premenstrual es algo que se llama quot;qigong externos. quot; En primer lugar, un poco de contexto: el qi humano proviene de dos fuentes principales: uno, sus padres, y, dos, sustancias esenciales en la naturaleza como el aire, el agua y los alimentos. Ambos qi sourcesinherited y adquiri� energiesare vital refinado y transformado por nuestro organs.By comer una dieta saludable y respirar aire fresco, la teor�a, los extractos del cuerpo de sus esencias m�s valiosas y las utiliza para ayudar a formar la energ�a vital. Siguiendo estos principios simples son los primeros pasos hacia la creaci�n de un equilibrio saludable en el Qigong externo body.In, un profesional entrenado dirige su propio Qi hacia el exterior, con la intenci�n de ayudar a liberar obstrucciones de los pacientes, eliminar el qi negativo, y equilibrar el flujo de qi en el cuerpo, aliviando as� el dolor y ayudar al cuerpo a deshacerse de ciertas enfermedades. Los cient�ficos en Corea del Sur informan que el qigong pueden mejorar muchos de los s�ntomas asociados con el PMS, y que puede funcionar tan bien como los m�todos m�s tradicionales de techniquessuch relief.Other como ejercicios de respiraci�n, meditaci�n, aromaterapia, y yogafocus en la reducci�n de la tensi�n y promover la relajaci�n.

Supongo que podr�a haber escrito algo gen�rico sobre el tema de los fibromas uterinos, pero yo prefiero escribir historias personales sobre experiencias de la vida real que tienen el potencial de inspirar y motivar a readers.It Todo comenz� un a�o despu�s nos casamos. During our first year of marriage, like most couples, our focus was on starting a family, which means we did our best to make this happen. Hasta ahora, por lo que Good.but despu�s de casi un a�o de intentar sin �xito, comenz� a preguntarse si algo no est� bien. Nos fuimos a ver al especialista en fertilidad, el primero que pidi� a la edad de mi esposa, entonces tom� una muestra de sangre para medir su nivel de hormona fol�culo estimulante (FSH), que es la hormona principal que participan en la producci�n de �vulos maduros. Luego hizo una prueba de ultrasonido para comprobar su uterus.When que nos dieron los resultados, se habr�a sentido mejor si hab�an utilizado una escopeta. At age 39, my wife had an FSH score of 12 (the probability of conception at anything over 10 is practically zero). No s�lo eso, sino que tambi�n encontraron tres fibromas uterinos en tres �reas diferentes, o los niveles, en el forro de su mala noticia uterus.How nos estimul� en actionI#39;ll de repuesto que la pena y el dolor que pasamos ese d�a se nos dijo daythe que nunca tendr�a un hijo. I can tell you that when bad news arrives, I feel the same emotion of despair, pain and frustration as anyone else in the same circumstances. I must also admit that I have expressed my rage in a torrent of choice words (mostly Rrated). Para m�, fue la liberaci�n que necesitaba, y fue el primer paso en nuestro camino hacia recovery.For tan r�pido como la mala noticia ha creado una sensaci�n de desesperanza, mi esposa y yo fuera capaz de dejar de lado los negativos y comenzar a para centrarse en lo que podemos hacer m�s que lo que no pod�a. Within 12 months of that terrible day, we finalized the adoption of our daughter, Jessica Taylor.In fact, from the first day we signed any paperwork to the time we were standing in front of a judge, it took only 10 monthsa land speed record in the world of domestic infant adoption. Jessica will be 5 next month, and if my wife and I had simply sat by and gotten negative and depressed, she surely would not be in our lives today.What you need to knowWhile not truly understanding what a uterine fibroid tumor was at the time and only hearing the word quot;tumor,quot; I immediately went to work to learn everything I could about them. And, like anything else, the answer is out thereyou just have to ask the right questions, find the right people, and knock on the right doors.Of course, the doctor we had only wanted to sell us a $20,000 Egg donor fertility package. He could not have cared one bit about the fibroids and the emotions my wife was experiencing when she learned she had themlet alone offer us a solution.The first bit of good news I found was that fibroids are rarely cancerous. In fact, some are even asymptomatic, meaning they have no symptoms. Many women, however, experience symptoms such as abnormal bleeding, pelvic pain, bowel and bladder irregularity, and painful or uncomfortable sex. In some case, fibroids can cause a distended abdomen.What exactly are fibroidsUterine fibroid tumors are small, solid collections of smooth muscle cells and fibrous connective tissue that can develop in various parts of the uterus.What causes themNo one really knows why they develop, but there is a wellestablished correlation between fibroids and hormonal imbalancesspecifically, higher estrogen levels and lower progesterone levels.Being in an estrogendominant state should not come as a surprise to women these dayseven up to premenopausal agesbecause of the widespread use of birth control pills and even the large amounts of soy we all eat. Yes, I said soy.The best way to overcome a challenge is to overwhelm itIf you suspect (or know) that you have a uterine fibroid, please seek proper medical attention. In our case, were not offered treatment, which is common. The typical recommendation is to do nothing but wait and see what happens.Well, we weren#39;t going to wait until these fibroids got to be the size of bowling balls before we took any action. (Personal observation: sometimes when we are faced with a medical situation that is not lifethreatening, we tend sit back and hope that things will get better on their own. Seldom do we decide to attack the problem from as many different angles as possibleall at once, in an effort to overwhelm it, stop it, or at least control it as quickly as possible.)My wife found her solution in enzymesMy wife had been off any birth control for a while before she found out she had fibroids. However, hormonal imbalances were already evident. We looked at hormone replacement therapy (HRT), but it was just at the time that this approach was bad press and some of these products were even being recalled. She did try some natural progesterone cream for a while, until she discovered something called quot;proteolytic enzymes.quot;Can Proteolytic enzymes reverse fibroidsProteolytic enzymes are a remarkable substance, and they are responsible for a host of bodily functions. When it comes to uterine fibroids, proteolytic enzymes help break down and remove excess fibrous tissue, which is what fibroids are mostly made of. That#39;s why these enzymes work so well.Let me tell you what happened in our case. We both started to take them. Why both of us Well, for one thing, my wife had never heard of these enzymes, and she felt that it was something we should do together. In less than a week, both began to feel betterand'm talking about everywhere. Simple aches and pains began to disappear, and we found we had greater flexibility in our hands (We were both massage therapists at the time and our hands are everything to us).By week two, my wife started to have what the scientists and the developers of the enzymes call a quot;side activity.quot; Por qu� no s�lo se puede llamar un beneficio secundario es m�s all� de m�. Anyway, she started to get this type of vaginal discharge she called quot; the gooquot;. I called it quot;moneyquot; because it was a signal that remnants of the fibroids were passing through her.This continued over the next four to six weeks. My wife did not complain of any vaginal pain during this period. She simply said, quot;Things just worked better if you know what I mean.quot;The one interesting thing about enzymes is that they work at several different dosing levels, in the beginning there is an Activation dose, the Activation dose is different for everyone so you will need to experiment with your dose by incrementally adding one or two capsule per day.The Activation dose can be continued as long as your are experiencing the side activity, once the side activity starts to subside you can start on what is called a maintenance dose.That was five years ago. Today, we still take the enzymes for the numerous health benefits they provide, including cardiovascular support not to mention helping to control the levels of systemic inflammation in our bodies the root cause of virtually every disease known to man. It goes without saying that when your enzyme levels drop or stay too low for too long, you will eventually find yourself planted on the other side of the grass.About the AuthorTo learn more about proteolytic enzymes and the roll they play in help us stay healthy, I suggest you read this article: www.losethebackpain.com/inflammation6.htmlWild Foods for Wise WomenDid you know that many of those unglamorous quot;weedsquot; that you#39;ve been poisoning or pulling out of your garden and lawn are some of the world#39;s most wellrespected and powerful healing plants If not, you aren#39;t alone: many people don#39;t realize that common ordinary weeds can build and maintain good health. Common weeds that grow by you can boost your immunity, strengthen your liver, help you build strong blood, counter colds and the flu, increase your vitality, and even prevent cancer.Healthpromoting weeds are easy to find (even in the city), easy to identify, easy to prepare, incredibly abundant, and as delicious as highpriced gourmet goodies. Go outside right now and see if you can find one or more of my seven favorites: Burdock, Dandelion, Honeysuckle, Plantain, Red Clover, Violet, or Yellow Dock. (To the botanist: Arctium lappa, Taraxacum officinale, Plantago majus, Trifolium pratense, Viola odorata, and Rumex crispus.) You probably take them for granted. But if they could talk, they would say quot;Here we are! We love you! We#39;re waiting to change your life!quot;How can they change your life When properly prepared and used, these weeds can boost your immunity, strengthen your liver, renew your energy, and help prevent cancer. And the best part is, they#39;re free!IMMUNE SYSTEM BOOSTERSDandelion and Honeysuckle are particularly good builders of the immune system. (The immune system is a network of cells and cell products that defends the body against diseasecausing organisms such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, and cancer cells.) Dandelion root tincture (20 drops, 2 3 times a day) actually increases the production of interferon, a protein that inhibits viral multiplication and activates Tcells.Can a powerful immune system prevent cancer Put cancer into remission Prevent the recurrence of cancer that has been treated Stop a cancer from metastasizing In my book Breast Cancer Breast Health! The Wise Woman Way, I answer these questions affirmatively (and share recipes for immunebuilding soups, too). Building powerful immunity can help us remain cancerfree and it provides longlasting benefits and long life for relatively little effort.LIVER STRENGTHENERSThe liver is the body#39;s recycling center. This large organ is critical to healthy digestive functioning, utilization of hormones, and removal of chemicals from the body. Dandelion is an outstanding liver strengthener. It is known to protect, heal and tone up the liver, helping to relieve food allergies and aid digestion, as well as repairing damage done by drugs, chemicals, alcohol, and infections such as hepatitis. Burdock, Red Clover, Plantain, and Yellow Dock are also powerful liver strengtheners.Most experienced healers that I#39;ve met are unanimous in their agreement that a healthy liver is the basis for a healthy and long life. Perhaps the single most important benefit to be gained from befriending the weeds is the strengthening of your liver function.Dandelion, Yellow Dock, or Burdock roots are used in tinctures (20 drops, 2 3 times a day) or vinegars (12 large spoonsful on salad daily); Red Clover is best taken as an infusion; Plantain leaves are eaten in salad or infused in apple cider vinegar.BLOOD BUILDERSYellow Dock builds strong blood. Strong blood is rich in iron and other minerals needed for health. Strong blood is nutrientrich so vital organs get the nourishment they need for optimum functioning. Strong blood helps muscles work well without cramping and aching. Strong blood is low in cholesterol and moves easily through the circulatory system. Strong blood is packed with plenty of energy: for life, for work, and for sex.Other green allies that build strong blood are Dandelion leaves, Red Clover blossoms, and Plantain leaves. (And for strong veins, Burdock root vinegar is a trusted ally.) Daily doses of Yellow Dock root vinegar (see below) or tincture (520 drops once or twice a day) often increase iron levels in the blood twice as fast as iron supplements. If you wish to avoid alcohol, soak chopped fresh Yellow Dock roots (or any of the other plants mentioned here) in vinegar to cover for 6 weeks. I use 12 tablespoons a day of the resulting medicinal vinegar to build strong blood.COUNTER COLDS AND THE FLUThroughout the orient, Honeysuckle flowers are steeped in water and the resulting strong tea scientifically established as antiseptic, antimicrobial, and antiinfective drunk to ward off colds and the flu. (An injectable form of Honeysuckle is used in Chinese hospitals to counter severe infections.) Red Clover blossoms mixed with ordinary mint and steeped in hot water for several hours is an effective quot;cold remedyquot; passed down from Colonial housewives.INCREASE VITALITY, EVEN PREVENT CANCERThe leaves of Violets and the blossoms of both Honeysuckle and Red Clover are renowned as safe, lifeenhancing tonics. In addition to enhancing vitality and rejuvenating fertility, they have proven effectiveness against precancerous conditions. Red Clover especially is noted for its ability to reverse in situ breast cancers, cervical dysplasia, and precancerous polyps of the colon. Violet, whether drunk in infusion or applied as a poultice, has a reputation as a dissolver of breast lumps and a protector of the lungs, even checking the growth of tumors.ANTICANCER AGENTSThe most amazing thing about these seven humble plants is that each of them has been associated with cancer prevention. Plantain is an important LatinAmerican folk remedy against cancer. Burdock as a specific cure for breast cancer dates back to at least 1887 in the Ukraine. Around the world, Red Clover is a widely used folk remedy against cancer and is known as quot;The herb of immortality.quot; Dandelion is known to stop the promotion of oncogenes. (When damaged or turned on, an oncogene initiates cancer.) Violet slows tumor growth. Honeysuckle is a popular anticancer agent in China. Yellow dock is one of the original plants in the Native American anticancer brew now known as Essiac.As you can see, these seven plants are not useless weeds by any means. Even if you don#39;t reach out and pick them from your yard (or that nearby vacant lot), I know you#39;ll be more aware of the abundance of green blessings surrounding you.For more information on how to prepare and use herbs consult any of my books including Healing Wise and Breast Cancer Breast Health!

Regular use internally before meals and externally before sleep helps keep breasts healthy, reverses cancerous changes. Digestion is settled and strengthened a few minutes after taking a dose. Results in breast tissue are slower, taking six weeks or more to become evident.Honeysuckle:One of the most vigorous vines known, Honeysuckle makes an excellent complementary medicine for many Western drugs, moderating or eliminating many of their damaging sideeffects. The flowerbuds are harvested in May or June, dried quickly in the sun without turning or handling, infused in water overnight (one ounce dried blossoms to one quart boiling water in a tightly sealed jar steeped for 410 hours), and drunk freely.Plantain:Use leaves, harvested any time, or ripe seeds with hulls.Internal use:Seeds: antimicrobial, against thrush;Leaves: promote blood clotting, increase in iron, strengthen digestion.Used externally: leaf poultice or oil reduces cysts, heals skin and connective tissues, stops itching and prevents scars.Daily use: no limit.Raw leaves: 320 chopped in salad.Fresh leaf vinegar: 12 tablespoons (1530 ml).Fresh leaf oil/ointment or poultice: as needed.Internal response is prompt; noticeable improvement in blood iron is seen in two weeks of daily use. External response is also rapid: itching ceases, bleeding stops, pain abates, and swelling recedes in minutes. Plantain promotes quick, scarless healing from all wounds.Red Clover:Use the justopened blossoms with a few leaves clinging.Internally: alkalinizes, builds blood; helps prevent the recurrence of cancer, protects liver and lungs, improves appetite, relieves constipation, eases anxiety; relieves symptoms of menopause, increases fertility.Externally: softens and reduces breast lumps; is antifungal.Daily use is without limit.Fresh blossoms: eaten freely.Infusion (tea) of dried flowers: up to one quart (1 liter).Tincture/mother tincture of fresh blossoms: 15100 drops.Fresh flower vinegar: 14 tablespoons (1560 ml).Note: Over consumption of bloodthinning coumarins, which are present only in low amounts in red clover but found in greater amounts in other clovers such as sweet clover, can lead to the breakdown of blood cells and increase risk of hemorrhage.Red clover (legume family) shares with its sisters, lentil and astragalus, the ability to repair damaged DNA, turn off oncogenes, and reverse both precancers and in situ cancers. According to J. Hartwell, author of Plants Used Against Cancer, medical literature has reported and confirmed hundreds of cases of remission of cancer after consistent use of red clover. I agree.Violet:Use the leaves, harvested any time, even during flowering.Externally: Eases pain and inflammation, heals mouth sores, softens skin, antifungal.Daily dose: Use without limit, nontoxic.Fresh leaves: in salad, as desired.Dried leaf infusion: up to one quart (1 liter).Fresh or dried leaf poultice: continuously.Internal and external use of violet can shrink a breast lump in a month.Yellow Dock:Use roots of a plant at least two years old, dug after autumn frosts, or very early in the spring; leaves, harvested at any time, use ripe seeds.Internally: as root tincture or vinegar, yellow dock builds healthy blood, protects liver, and acts as a laxative. As a seed tea, it heals mouth sores and checks diarrhea.Externally: Poultices dissolve lumps, counter tumors and kill fungus infections.Can be used daily for up to 12 months.Tincture of fresh roots: 1060 drops per day.Fresh root vinegar: 12 tablespoons (30 ml) per day.Dried seed tea: no more than one cup (250 ml) per day.Fresh root oil/ointment: liberally, as needed.Legal Disclaimer: This content is not intended to replace conventional medical treatment.

This interest has been heightened by recent findings from the Women#39;s Health Initiative (WHI), which pointed to a shift in the risk/benefit balance of hormone therapy due to the risks associated with cardiovascular events, stroke, breast cancer, blood clots, and other conditions.Black Cohosh is used for a variety of other complaints, but has become best known in the Western World for its beneficial effect on hormone functioning due to its phytoestrogenic properties. Herbalists also use Black Cohosh to prevent miscarriage in cases of women at high risk. Many women miscarry in the very early stages of pregnancy and may not even realize that they have been pregnant.Historically, Black Cohosh has been also been used for a range of conditions. Native Americans and the early U.S. colonialists used it for a great variety if disorders including amenorrhea, bronchitis, chorea, dropsy, fever, hysteria, itch, lumbago, nervous disorders, snakebite, yellow fever, and disorders of the uterus.Today, preparations of Black Cohosh consist of the fresh or dried rhizome with attached roots of cimicifuga racemosa.Studies recently carried out in Germany have confirmed that cimicifuga is strongly estrogenic and that it is effective in relieving menopausal symptoms.For the technically minded, its main constituents are triterpene glycosides, cinnamic acid derivatives, chromone, isoflavones, tannins and salicylic acid.Black Cohosh is regarded as a relatively safe herb, there being no documented contraindications to it.Side effects are also few, perhaps occasional gastric discomfort, and rare hepatic (liver) dysfunction.It has been suggested by some authorities that medicinal quantities of Black Cohosh may possibly magnify the effects of synthetic hormones in susceptible women, such as women taking HRT or the contraceptive pill.It has also been hypothesized in some circles that, because of its estrogenlike effects, it could promote metastasis of breast cancer tissue. (In an experiment done on mice, however, Black Cohosh increased metastasis of cancer to the lungs, but did not cause an increased incidence of breast cancer.)It is not advisable to take Black Cohosh during pregnancy or lactation.Otherwise there are no known interactions with other drugsWild YamWild Yam is another very popular herb for women and has been also used to relieve menstrual cramps or pain, menopausal symptoms, rheumatic conditions, and gallbladder complaints, bilious colic and nausea. It also has been proposed as an alternative to hormone replacement therapy but (as one might imagine) there is much debate about that.Traditionally, Native Americans used Wild Yam for birth control, also for rheumatism, menstrual pain and complications during childbirth.Studies have shown that wild yam contains steroidal saponins, mainly dioscin and diosgenin, which can be used to manufacture progesterone, and other steroid drugs used for contraception. Be aware, however, that the body does not convert dioscin to progesteroneSome authorities warn that the use of Wild Yam may be contraindicated for women taking progesterone and/or estrogen. Otherwise there are no consistent reports of adverse side effects.In recent times Wild Yam has been strongly promoted as a female breast enhancer and as a sexual stimulant and is consequently an increasingly common ingredient in female herbal supplements.Dong Quai (or Quoi), Angelica polymorpha.Dong Quai has been used for many centuries in Asia to balance female hormones and as a treatment for the various discomforts associated with menopause.It has also been traditionally used In Asia to treat arthritis.Today, Dong Quai is recognized as being rich in iron, magnesium and niacin. The root of Dong Quai is still used to relieve menstrual problems or menopausal symptoms, to improve mental acuity and alleviate symptoms of daily stress.It is used also to relieve muscle spasms, and is also used to treat PMS, vaginal dryness, and hot flashes.Dong Quai should not be used during pregnancy or by people suffering from colds and flu. It should not be taken with Warfarin as it could lead to bruising and uncontrolled bleeding.Today, many different herbs are used to address not only health disorders that are peculiar to women but to improve womens quality of life, their sexuality and general well being. Herbal remedies, however, should not be taken by people already taking pharmaceutical drugs without reference to a competent herbal medical practitioner.About the AuthorIan Finlayson is author of The Herb Spiral and several other web sites dealing with the properties of specific herbs, and is a regular writer of articles and reviews on medicinal herbs and herbal products.

Screening mammograms are unsafe other ways, too: they expose sensitive breast tissues to radiation, and they increase your chances of having a biopsy and being overtreated for carcinoma in situ.RADIATION DANGERSScientists agree that there is no safe dose of radiation. Cellular DNA in the breast is more easily damaged by very small doses of radiation than thyroid tissue or bone marrow; in fact, breast cells are second only to fetal tissues in sensitivity to radiation. And the younger the breast cells, the more easily their DNA is damaged by radiation. As an added risk, 1% of American women carry a hardtodetect oncogene which is triggered by radiation: a single mammogram increases their risk of breast cancer by a factor of 46 times.The usual dose of radiation during a mammographic xray is from 0.25 to 1 rad with the very best equipment that#39;s 14 rads per screening mammogram (two views each of two breasts).And, according to Samuel Epstein, M.D., of the University of Chicago#39;s School of Public Health, the dose can be ten times more than that. Sister Rosalie Bertell one of the world#39;s most respected authorities on the dangers of radiation says one rad increases breast cancer risk 1% and is the equivalent of one year#39;s natural aging.If a woman has yearly mammograms from age 55 to age 75, she will receive a minimum of 20 rads of radiation. For comparison, women who survived the atomic bomb blasts in Hiroshima or Nagasaki absorbed 35 rads. Though one large dose of radiation can be more harmful than many small doses, it is important to remember that damage from radiation is cumulative. Many women born in the 1930s and #39;40s who are now considering the benefits of postmenopausal mammographic screening have already absorbed quite a bit of radioactivity into their breast tissues from fallout from the atomic bomb tests of the 1950s.The American Cancer Society claims that the radiation danger from a screening mammogram is no more than that caused by natural radiation in the environment. Not so. The amount of radiation from even one breast xray is 11.9 times the yearly dose absorbed by the entire body, according to Diana Hunt, former saleswoman for an xray manufacturing company, UCLA Medical Center graduate, and senior staff xray technologist for 20 years. (See page 18 of Breast Cancer Breast Health the Wise Woman Way for a list of rads absorbed while skiing in Denver, flying in an airplane, and other activities often cited as comparable to mammographic screening.)A study published in the October 20, 1993 issue of Journal of the National Cancer Institute found a statistically significant increase in the incidence of breast cancer following radiation treatment of various benign breast diseases even among women older than 40 at the time of the first treatment.TREATMENT DANGERSYou increase your risk of being overtreated for breast cancer whenever you have a screening mammogram. Eight out of ten masses detected by screening mammograms are false alarms, but if something is seen in your mammogram you#39;ll be urged to undergo a biopsy.Screening mammograms lead to overtreatment. Many of the quot;cancersquot; found by mammographic examination are carcinoma in situ. At least 75% of these will remain noninvasive and can be removed surgically, if desired, at any time, or simply left alone. Of the 25% of in situ cancers that do become invasive, the number that metastasize is quite small (and unmetastasized breast cancer rarely kills).Early detection of tiny in situ tumors often leads to orthodox treatments which do not prolong life and which can cause immune system suppression, severe drug reactions, even death. Of course, early detection can also lead to lifeenhancing wholistic treatments.Green Blessings.About the AuthorSusun Weed PO Box 64 Woodstock, NY 12498 Fax: 18452468081 Visit Susun Weed at: www.susunweed.com and www.ashtreepublishing.com Vibrant, passionate, and involved, Susun Weed has garnered an international reputation for her groundbreaking lectures, teachings, and writings on health and nutrition.

Menopause. Premenstrual syndrome. Estrogen dominance. Osteoporosis.When watching the media these days, there is a good chance you are going to encounter a discussion about one or more of the above womens health issues. Although these discussions offer much advice, it is often contradictory and debatable. In the following paragraphs, one will discover what really is happening in a womans body as she travels through her lifestages and why these changes are occurring.No matter what our age, lifes plans, personal desires, or professional goals, being a female means that our organs and hormones will cause us to experience physical changes in fairly specific intervals. Within each of these stages, normal fluctuations in our reproductive hormones occur, with high levels in puberty, and ceasing levels later in life. Since our reproductive hormones are responsible for other important functions in our bodies, completely unrelated to pregnancy and babies, these changing levels greatly affect womens health as a whole, resulting in a variety of normal and natural, but uncomfortable, symptoms. Healthcare practitioners have come to view these symptoms as problems to fix because they do cause discomfort. As for most diseases, healthcare practitioners prescribe synthetic hormones to treat these symptoms, but recent research has determined that these HRTs (hormone replacement therapies) cause far more risks than benefits. The simple fact to this research is that you dont need more hormones to treat hormonal imbalance. Instead, you need specific nutrients that restore hormonal balance and reduce symptoms, being vitamins, minerals, and good nutrition.Estrogen, which is made up of estrone, estradiol, and estriol, is produced mainly in the ovaries, but small amounts are also produced in the adrenal glands, liver, kidneys, and a womans body fat. It is necessary for normal development of the breasts and childbearing organs and helps to control a womans menstrual cycle. Estrogen also is essential in reproduction and helps to maintain a healthy heart and bones. Progesterone, which is also produced in the ovaries, is the reproductive organ associated with pregnancy, as it guides the egg to leave one of the ovaries and travel to the uterus through the fallopian tubes. Progesterone is also responsible for building up a thick cushiony lining on the wall of the uterus for the fertilized egg to attach to.A healthy woman relies on her ability to maintain hormonal balance. If her hormonal balance is disrupted, numerous health problems will follow. These imbalances can occur by exposure to xenoestrogens (chemicals used in pesticides, plastics, and fuels), as they can mimic estrogen and interfere with the bodys estrogen metabolism. After estrogen completes its required activity, it returns to the liver to be metabolized, where it is broken down into different enzymatic pathways. The first of these pathways, the 2hydroxy pathway, results in good estrogen metabolites, which account for many of the benefits of estrogen such as prevention of heart disease, and strong, healthy bones. The second pathway, the 16hydroxy pathway, produces bad estrogen metabolites, which result in hormonal metabolism imbalances. These bad estrogen metabolites can: accelerate the aging process; worsen autoimmune disorders; and cause anxiety, breast cancer, breast tenderness, cervical dysplasia, cold hands and feet, decreased sex drive, depression, dry eyes, fatigue, foggy thinking, hair loss, headaches, infertility, irregular menstrual periods, irritability, insomnia, magnesium deficiency, memory loss, mood swings, osteoporosis, premenstrual syndrome, a sluggish metabolism, uterine cancer, water retention, weight gain, and zinc deficiency.Estrogen dominance can occur through exposure to synthetic estrogens (such as chemicals that are used in pesticides, plastics, and fuels, and also through exposure to animal products. A treatment that is currently popular for hormonal imbalance is progesterone cream. Although some women report relief of milder hormonal imbalance symptoms, the additional progesterone delivered inside the body can be metabolized into estrogen, resulting in an even greater hormonal imbalance and estrogen dominance. In most cases, women dont need more hormones, but rather help in metabolizing estrogen and keeping their hormones balanced. The answer to this is found in a natural plant compound called diindolylmethane (DIM), which is found in broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables. Scientists have recently discovered that DIM improves hormonal balance by shifting the way that estrogen is metabolized in our bodies to the 2hydroxy pathway, which is responsible for good estrogen metabolites. This increase in good estrogen metabolites has a simultaneous reduction on the number of bad estrogen metabolites produced. Most women should take 120 mg of DIM complex that is standardized to 25% DIM per dose, once daily. However, women suffering with many estrogen imbalance symptoms may find even more relief by doubling the dose and taking DIM twice daily. The complex needs to me specialized to improve bioavailability so it is better able to absorb into the body.In the early/fertile/high estrogen years, which occurs until women reach their late 30s and early 40s, estrogen levels are high and progesterone levels rise and fall appropriately. However, because women in their 20s and 30s have also been exposed to a great amount of environmental and synthetic estrogen, there is a predominance of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) in this age group. This frustrating and painful cluster of symptoms, which occurs just before the onset of PMS each month, ranges from mild to disabling and tends to run in the family. Physical symptoms of PMS include: breast tenderness, bloating, fluid retention, headaches, backaches, and cramping, as well as extreme food cravings and feelings of panic, anxiety, irritability, and depression. These symptoms often affect relationships with people women hold near including, children, husbands, families, and friends, causing significant distress. Researchers are not exactly sure why PMS occurs, however they do know that it is associated with estrogen and progesterone levels and their balance. DIM can reduce the symptoms of PMS by restoring estrogen metabolism to the 2hydroxy pathway, which relieves the pain and discomfort from PMS symptoms. At this stage, women also need a superior multivitamin containing vitamins A, D, E, B, and C as well as cranberry, chaste berry, iron, and calcium. They must also consume an adequate amount of folic acid, as it has a powerful ability to prevent spinal bifida, a serious birth defect.The perimenopause years, which takes place in women between the ages of 35 and 45, is the time period when women are not in menopause but something is definitely going on hormonally. Many women in this age group experience: unexplained weight gain, sore, lumpy breast, changing body temperatures, heavier or longer menstrual periods, increased menstrual cramps, loss of sex drive, irritability and shifting moods, foggy thinking, and insomnia or poor sleep quality. The conventional treatment for this stage of life is often progesterone in cycled doses, but the integrative answer to these symptoms is a collection of natural herbs and nutrients including Black Cohosh, Green Tea, Chaste Berry, Rhodiola, Valerian and Hops, and LTheanine. Black Cohosh relieves hot flashes and reduces mood swings, as well as keeps night sweats from occurring. Green Tea adds energy, maintains breast cell growth, and helps to keep weight under control, while Chaste Berry provides a natural balance of progesterone. Rhodiola enhances concentration, energy, alertness, and endurance, as Valerian and Hops promotes relaxation and deeper sleep. LTheanine alleviates nighttime muscle tension and promotes restful sleep. Along with these herbs and nutrients, a multivitamin is a must, containing iron if you are still menstruating. A woman in this stage also needs more advanced bone nutrition, with a critical need for calcium, you must look for a calcium based formula that is enriched with vitamins and minerals that make sure your bones remain active and healthy.The last stage, the menopause years, is an opportunity for a woman to become anything she wants. And in order to make sure this opportunity isnt lost, a variety of dietary supplements are needed to maintain health and vigor. Menopausal women require optimal levels of vitamins, minerals, and herbs, which only a superior daily multivitamin can provide. This multivitamin should exclude iron, as women at this age do not need it, but include calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, copper, zinc, and other minerals. Since menopause signals the end of a womans fertility, her ovaries slowly stop producing estrogen and progesterone, causing her to possibly experience hot flashes, mood wings, joint pain, vaginal dryness, and making her more vulnerable to heart disease, osteoporosis, and other health problems. Until recently HRT was the treatment of choice for women in menopause, but in July 2002, researchers discovered that HRT causes breast cancer and heart disease. The new solution was the safe, effective, and natural way to treat the symptoms of menopause. The above Black Cohosh, Green Tea, Valerian and Hops, and LTheanine, along with Ginseng which increases energy, reduces stress, and helps Black Cohosh work better are a great, natural way to relieve menopausal symptoms. Because women in menopause still produce small amounts of estrogen and progesterone for fate cells and adrenal glands, DIM may be beneficial to prevent any symptoms of hormonal imbalance as well as their risk of breast, cervical, and uterine cancers, and osteoporosis. DIM, Black Cohosh and other great supplements can be found at your local health food store or internet health food store.About the AuthorVisit VitaNet Health Foods at vitanetonline.com/ VitaNet sells high quality supplements like Valerian Extract from Planetary herbals.

Fortunately, extensive media coverage of this crime and so called date rape drugs have made women more vigilant and aware of this potential threat. Still, despite increased awareness, the number of these incidents continues to climb.Parties, bars and night clubs are prime breeding grounds for acts of violence, assault and rape. With this in mind, these simple safety tips are important to keep in mind and pass along.Always get your own drink, and watch it being poured.Never leave your drink unattended. If you need to use the restroom and can#39;t take it with you, leave it with a trusted friendnot a new date!If your drink tastes funny, do not drink it and dispose of it so no one else does.Keep in mind that most drugs used to spike a drink are colorless and tasteless, so not allowing your drink out of your sight is paramount.Be aware of how your friends are acting. If they seem more quot;out of itquot; than usual, be very wary and keep an eye out for them.When it#39;s time to leave, you may have met someone you are interested in. Ask yourself if you really trust this person. Can you be sure they won#39;t make you do anything you don#39;t want to do Are you confident they will take NO for an answer If you#39;ve asked yourself these questions and still want to leave with this person, be sure to introduce them to friends and let your friends know you are leaving with them.So you#39;ve left with this person and you#39;re now in a new location. You could be in a car, your home, their home, the beach, or some other secluded spot. You could even be a consenting participant in a heavy quot;make outquot; session. But things are moving too fast, the person#39;s making you uncomfortable, or you#39;ve just simply changed your mind. At no point is it ever too late to say NO. Say it firmly and repeat it louder if you need to.Hopefully, you were right when you asked yourself if you could trust this person, that they wouldn#39;t make you do anything you didn#39;t want to do, and that they#39;d take NO for an answer. Unfortunately, despite a person#39;s best efforts, it#39;s possible to find yourself with somebody who has fooled you horribly and isn#39;t going to take NO for an answer. This is NOT your fault. However, you do need to act to ensure your safety. If screaming for help or fleeing are not viable options, you need to defend yourself.I could discuss many selfdefense tactics or possible weapons, but for this particular topic, I#39;d like to tell you about one particular item that can be perfect for a situation where date rape seems imminent. It#39;s a pepper spray disguised as a lipstick. A potential attacker is likely to drop their guard if you switch gears from resisting to saying you#39;d like to freshen your lipstick. His posture will relax when he sees you reach into your purse and come out with nothing but the aforementioned lipstick. But, the attractive case he sees packs a potent pepper spray. It holds twenty halfsecond sprays with a range of 10 feet. While your potential attacker is temporarily blinded and in excruciating pain, you have given yourself ample time to escape and go for help.Look for more articles from me discussing potential threats and your options to defend yourself. Or, you can visit my company#39;s website to find many resources, howto manuals and dvd#39;s, and products to ensure that you are personally safe, regardless of what situation you may find yourself in.About the AuthorKelly Moran Owner KW Security Surveillance Your best internet source for tasers, stun guns, pepper sprays, personal alarms and more www.kwpersonalsecurity.com/lipstickpepperspray.htm info@kwpersonalsecurity.comHow to Free Yourself from Those Dreaded Monthly Abdominal Cramps with Magnetic TherapyWell, what I say ladies , we#39;ve all been there at some time or another; first comes the tiredness, premenstrual tension, not too mention a good dose of back pain right across your lower back and last but certainly not least are those painful stomach cramps!Approximately 50% of women are affected by painful abdominal cramps every month. According to the US Department of Health and Human Services, painful menstruation or Dysmenorrhea as it is medically known is officially defined as,quot;A normal cramping of the lower abdomen caused by hormoneinduced uterine contractions before the period.quot;Painful abdominal cramps have plagued women since the beginning of time; and most women have developed their own strategy for coping with them. Some of those remedies include reaching for the good old hot water bottle or over the counter pain killers or anti inflammatory drugs.So Why Do Menstrual Cramps HurtNow ladies, lets travel back in time to your Biology class; you will probably recall these all important facts:The body prepares itself for pregnancy each month by allowing the lining of the womb to thickenWhen a pregnancy does not occur, this lining becomes swollen and diesThe uterus begins to contract to rid itself of the dead liningThe lining is then passed through the cervix and out via the vagina, which we see in the form of a period each month.Sound familiar right Well, I am sure that there are many among you, who know at least one person who appears to sail through their #39;time of the month#39; without any problems at all. Now, as annoying as that may seem for the those of you who dont sail through, there is a possible reason for it, and it#39;s mainly due to a molecular compound called #39;Prostaglandin#39; .Your body releases Prostaglandin when the lining of your womb breaks down. Research has shown that women who produce high levels of Prostaglandin tend to experience more painful cramps than those with lower levels.Additional Factors Which Contribute To The PainOther factors that can have an effect on the amount of pain you experience are:Lack of exerciseA narrow cervical canalStressA retroverted uterus (a uterus which tilts backwards)Treatment Options An Alternative for You to ConsiderNo doubt, you are familiar with the various drug based options available for controlling the pain; you may even take supplements like Evening Star Primrose Oil or B Vitamins as part of your regimen. However, if youre not very good with tablets, then you may want to consider a natural pain relief alternative known as Magnetic TherapyNever heard of it Well, not a problem; Magnetic therapy can be defined as a safe, natural and noninvasive method of applying high strength negative magnetic fields to the body for therapeutic purposes. It is a Complementary Therapy which is used to treat certain medical conditions by exposure to permanent or pulsed magnetic fields.When magnets are applied directly above the site of pain or injury, the iron content within your blood becomes responsive to the magnetic field. This process results in improved circulation. The increased amount of blood supply means that the Magnetic Field also relieves pain, by tackling any inflammation present. It does this by drawing out excess fluid and toxins from the surrounding tissues and then expelling them on route via the Liver and Kidneys. Once the excess fluid and toxins are removed, the swelling will begin to reduce.According to Dr K. Kalita who is a specialist in the field of Magnetic Therapy, menstrual cramps have been successfully treated by placing a 4 x 6 x magnet directly over the cramping area. He also recommends sleeping on a Magnetic Mattress Pad with four 4 x 6 x 1 ceramic magnets at the crown of the head for relieving menstrual irregularities and any related symptoms.It may interest you to know that Magnet Therapy has been around for centuries. It was used extensively by the ancient Greeks, Indians and Chinese. It was even good enough for the likes of Cleopatra, the question is, is it good enough for youonly you can decide!About the AuthorMrs Donna Gray entered the world of Complementary Therapies as a trained #39;PersonCentered#39;counsellor. She became involved in Magnetic Therapy after personally witnessing the difference it made for mother (who had been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis). Magnetics 4 Backpain was set up in the passionate believe that Magnets can and do make a difference to the lives of chronic pain sufferers.

Your Change may have some hard edges, so let your contours round. Your wise blood is stirring and you are learning to let it move without attaching fear to its meanderings. In the same way, you can gracefully allow your natural weight gain. Struggling with your weight or dieting is bad medicine for you now, resulting only in thin bones that break easily, extreme hormone shifts that will keep you from sleeping and thinking, and an inner fire reduced to ashes or burning out of control. Pack your bags, slowly, dear one. There is no rush,quot; sighs Grandmother Growth, closing her eyes and sinking into a nap.The best ally you can have on your menopausal journey is ten quot;extraquot; pounds. I know you don#39;t want to hear this. I understand how difficult it is to desire ten extra pounds (or accept it happening to you, as it does to most menopausal women). You may have spent much of your life trying to get rid of ten extra pounds. The ultimate failure as a woman nowadays is not to be infertile, but to gain weight.When thin and young is the standard of beauty, any menopausal woman might find it difficult to maintain a positive selfimage as she sees herself becoming a thickwaisted, silverhaired Crone.I had some killer hot flashes, but the most difficult part of menopause for me was gaining weight. I knew it was going to happen; I knew it was supposed to happen. But I never thought it would happen. I read the studies; I knew that most healthy women, thin or thick or in between, gained ten to fifteen pounds during their menopausal years. But not me, I thought. I eat superbly. I exercise: an hour and a half of yoga every week, tai chi, and my ordinary farm chores (moving and splitting firewood, throwing bales of hay, hauling water, chasing goats). Not me.Yes, me. I watched my image in the mirror take on a shape more and more closely approximating the Venus figurines of prehistory. And my modern prejudices surged to the fore: quot;Yuck. You look disgusting. You#39;re overweight. It isn#39;t healthy. Lose weight!quot; I knew it wasn#39;t true. But despite years of feminism and consciousnessraising on every ism, from ageism to weightism, there was my culture yelling at me in my own mind every time I looked in the mirror.Now I looked like my aunts. Now I looked like a woman. It was as strange and unfamiliar as the sprouting of my breasts and pubic hair at puberty. I remember standing in my clothes closet at the age of thirteen, wistfully and resentfully removing my favorite littlegirl dresses, none of which fit.Not looking in the mirror didn#39;t help. (I didn#39;t have to resist looking at the scale. I don#39;t own one.) My clothes didn#39;t fit. First it was my blouses: my buttons gaping and my tshirts straining. Then it was my pants: Tight waistbands became absolutely impossible. My size fluctuated widely from morning to night, growing bigger as the day went on. For several months, I walked around the house with my pants unfastened from dinner until bedtime, a menopausal symptom my sweetheart was completely in favor of.Fortunately, I knew that dieting would not improve my health, and could easily harm me. But without the loving acceptance I felt from my lover, I might have faltered and given in to the desire to resist this change with all my might. I might have given up on being proud to look like a postmenopausal woman: like Margaret Mead, Eleanor Roosevelt, Susan B. Anthony.I wish for every menopausal woman someone to tell her each evening when she disrobes, how goddesslike, how voluptuous, how attractive and desirable she is, and to say with her: quot;The best ally I can have on my menopausal journey is ten extra poundsquot;.Of course, I don#39;t mean ten pounds of ordinary fat. You want ten pounds of healthy fat supported by healthy muscle and bone. And you want to gain that weight very, very slowly. Ideally about a pound or two a year during menopause. Remember, you are cushioning yourself for the journey. Love yourself as you get quot;in shapequot; for Change.Step 1. Collect informationFat cells convert androstenedione, a substance produced by the adrenals and the ovaries, into estrone, the primary postmenopausal estrogen. Women who gain weight during menopause have less severe hot flashes, an easier Change, and denser bones, according to menopause advocate, and longtime editor of A Friend Indeed, the Newsletter of Menopause, Jeanine O#39;Leary Cobb.Despite pronouncements that extra fat is a health risk, weight gained during the menopausal years is not associated with any increase in mortality risk.And losing it will not improve your health.In fact, weight loss can lead to thyroid malfunction, severe gall bladder problems, increased insulinresistance, and weakening of the cardiovascular and immune systems.If you don#39;t have a sweetie to tell you your bigger body is bodacious, read:Radiance: The Magazine for Large Women; PO Box 30246, Oakland, CA 94604.Healthy Weight Journal; PO Box 620, LCD1, Hamilton, ON; L8N 3K7, Canada. 18005687281.You Count, Calories Don#39;t, Linda Omichinski. Box 102A, RR#3, Portage La Prairie, MN; R1N 3A3, Canada. 18005654847.Loving Your Midlife Body, Linda Moore Browning, Health Forum for Older Women, Winter 1999.Step 2. Engage the energyquot;The first time I saw pictures of my postmenopausal self I was frightened by my size!quot;Give yourself permission to take up more space. Allow your needs to be uppermost. Enlarge your view of yourself. Enlarge your world.If you don#39;t already do an hour or more of yoga, tai chi, or some other meditative physical exercise weekly, begin ... now.Go to an art gallery, or get a book from your library, and find a picture of an attractive woman with a round proud belly. Meditate with her. Become her for a moment. Feel the energy in your belly. Feel the wise blood stirring within your belly. Stirring and simmering and sending its heat up along the energy pathways of your body. Be proud of yourself and your belly.Say a short prayer of thanksgiving, or sing a song, or light a candle, or observe a moment of silence before you eat. Affirm that the food will bring you health and pleasure.Step 3. Nourish TonifyGive up dieting. Eat the widest variety of whole foods possible. Don#39;t make any foods absolutely forbidden. What you eat everyday has the most effect. The best way to stop worrying about weight gain is to eat ten or more servings of fruit and vegetables, three or more servings of whole grains, and a cup of yogurt daily.To ensure that you add hormonallyhelpful, bonestrengthening, empowering fat, include one serving of a high calorie phytoestrogenrich food and three servings of super mineralrich foods in your daily diet.Highcalorie hormonerich foods include olives, olive oil, organic butter, freshly ground flax seeds, homemade beer, alcoholfree beer, fresh peanut butter.Super mineralrich foods include nourishing herbal infusions of nettle, oatstraw, red clover, or comfrey leaf; cooked greens such as kale, collards, lamb#39;s quarter, amaranth, mustard; seaweeds; whey; whole grains including oats, millet, wheat, and brown rice; bittersweet chocolate.Beer is traditionally brewed from hops and sprouted whole grains. The fermentation creates easily assimilated B vitamins and liberates minerals. One beer a week will slowly increase your weight, improve your memory, soothe your nerves, and improve your immune system. A cup of hops tea with a spoonful of barleymalt sweetener is an alcoholfree alternative.Step 4. Stimulate/SedateMost herbal remedies sold for weight loss include stimulants which can disturb heart function, and diuretic and laxative herbs which can cause excessive fluid loss and disrupt electrolyte balance. This may lead to lifethreatening events during the menopausal years, when heart and adrenal functions are unstable.

Vata, Pitta and Kapha are said to express themselves through ten interactive inherently selfbalancing pole pairs opposite qualities as follows: Cold, cold (Vata, Kapha) hot, hot (Pitta) Dry (Vata) , liquid, oily (Pitta, Kapha) Light (Vata) Heavy (Kapha) Sharp (Pitta), Smooth (Pitta, Kapha) Hard (Kapha) Soft (Pitta) Clear (Vata) Covered (Kapha) Sutil (Vata) Gross ( Kapha) Dispersion (Vata) Penetrating (Pitta) Mobile (Vata) Static (Kapha) Recreation (Pitta, Kapha) Consolidate (Kapha) or Saptaseven tissues ConceptIn Dhatus model Ayurvedic medicine, the physical body is seen as a fallout of the tissues.These seven levels of tissue is said to themselves metabolize our food and thoughts, one from the level of other tissues before as follows: Rasa (plasma, skin, lymph, breast milk), thent Rakta (blood, liver, build, temperament), thent Mamsa (muscles, tendons, liver, power), thent Meda (adipose, white fat, brown fat), attachment, thent Ashti (bone, periosteum, cartilage, joints ) thent Majja (bone, nerves, fascia, endocrine glands) and finallyTo Artava (uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, breasts, its contents and secretions).

Anemia can be defined as a reduction in the number of circulating red blood cells in your system. Anemia can not be classified as a disease but a symptom of an underlying cause or disease. Hemorrhagic anemia is a type of anemia that occurs when you develop a sudden drop in blood count due to excessive bleeding. This could be a number of underlying diseases or trauma. br There are more than four types of anemia. Many of these types of anemia are very rare. However, it is interesting to note that over half the world population will have a meeting with anemia at least once in their life. br Anemia can be classified as nutrition or nutrition. Nutritional anemia comes from iron deficiency or other vitamin or mineral in the diet. If the anemia can not be traced to lack of specific nutrition, then it is considered a different type of nutritional anemia. Certain hereditary conditions can cause chronic anemia. br The signs and symptoms of anemia are not always obvious. The first signs that you may be anemic may be loss of appetite, headaches or ringing in the ears. If your red blood cell count in the blood continues to fall, began to experience extreme fatigue, depression, cold extremities, weakness and a pale complexion. br Some people experience if they develop anemia hemorrhagic gastrointestinal bleeding that results from ulcers or ruptured bowel polyp. Alcoholics may suffer from esophageal varices, which are abnormally large veins in the lower esophagus. Sometimes, if blood flow is blocked to the liver, this blood will back up to these varices, causing the rupture. This is a potentially fatal hemorrhagic disease that needs immediate treatment. br Other causes of hemorrhagic anemia may be excessive menstrual bleeding. This can happen in the case of uterine fibroids. These fibroids can cause heavy bleeding and during the period that you can develop anemia. br Having surgery can be put at risk of hemorrhagic anemia and if no complications of bleeding after surgery you may experience anemia. If the bleeding does not stop immediately that could cause death. br If someone is suffering from anemia hemorrhagic his condition deteriorated rapidly. As your blood count drops, they become weaker and shortness of breath. Your heart rate will increase gradually and can begin to stir. br hemorrhagic anemia treatment is to give blood transfusions. However, blood transfusions only treat the symptoms of hemorrhagic anemia. The cause of blood loss must be found and corrected for a favorable outcome. br br

Chronic disease is a progressive phenomenon, from the mind, according to the working level and, finally, to structural changes in the physical body. Thus, in order to effect a cure at the deepest level must correct the imbalance in the mind / life force.The principal object or purpose of treatment is the restoration of normal functional equilibrium health.The basis of the prescription must be all symptoms that represent the functional disorder the abnormal process of the disease itself is not Ultimates or quot; finalesquot products;. The prescribing physician for any tangible product of the disease (eg recurrent tonsillitis, piles, fistula, kidney and gallbladder stones, small size uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, warts, corns, skin diseases, etc.) is diverting their energies and doomed to failure. These diseases are repeated until and unless the tendency to develop diseases such has been removed. Homeopathic treatment eliminates the recurrence of the disease while treating condition.Physicians constantly mistaking the product for the disease process. The product can only be changed by modifying the process defective product that causes the disease. Destroy the product does not change the process. Correcting the flawed process and the product will take care of itself. Morbid functioning causing those effects must be changed. The cause of the disease is a dynamic problem.Disease is essentially and primarily a morbid disturbance of the powers dynamic and vital functions, resulting in a loss of functional and organic balance. Only bioelectric therapies such as acupuncture and homeopathic remedies have the inherent power to correct the dynamic imbalance of the vital force.

(The electrons are subelements of molecules). Cures do not consist of simply removing the outer, secondary, tangible products of the disease, but in restoring the dynamic balance so that body functions are normal and the patient is in a state of health. br br

The natural progesterone cream can help minimize some of the symptoms associated with menopause such as

The natural progesterone cream can help minimize some of the symptoms associated with menopause such as hot flashes, chills, insomnia, night sweats, fatigue, mood swings and irritability. Natural progesterone is mostly of vegetable origin and is identical to the hormones produced by the body. The benefits include progesterone cream help women suffering from premenstrual cramping and fibrocystic breast disease, as well as acting as a natural antidepressant, diuretic, helping to improve concentration and to normalize the levels of blood sugar . Women of all ages can suffer from a deficiency of progesterone. Symptoms of menopause can be very daunting, but putting one in the hope the Lord will provide strength to live a better life. quot; good courage, and shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the Se�orquot; (Psalm 31:24). Before using any type of hormone replacement therapy for women should talk to a doctor first. Taking too much can increase a woman's risk of developing cancer of the breast or uterus. The natural progesterone cream can work to help balance estrogen in the body. Estrogen dominance can cause a woman to retain fluid, feel depressed, and weight gain. After starting a regimen of hormone therapy in a patient's doctor should know any unusual symptoms. Besides using a topical solution of a doctor may prescribe lowdose synthetic hormones for women going through menopause. The best treatment of progesterone that contain natural ingredients such as aloe vera and evening primrose oil. The natural progesterone cream that contains chemical preservatives and mineral oil is not the best option. Good choices will have ingredients that are good for the body as zinc, macadamia nut oil, almond oil and vitamin E. Avoid those containing perfumes or animal derivatives. Some manufacturers of creams hormone replacement therapy using citric acid as a preservative. This acts as a natural way to prolong shelf life. Trying to find the right product, do Internet research and talking with a doctor before making a purchase. Women diagnosed with arthritis or osteoporosis can find reducing their level of pain, joint swelling is reduced and do not suffer further loss of bone density when used in hormone replacement therapy. Progesterone cream benefits are many, but too much can cause abnormal bleeding or spotting and chest pain. Consultation with a doctor is the best way to decide on a product. Some products may be more demanding than others, it is difficult to ascertain the exact amount of the hormone is absorbed into the body. Because of this a doctor can suggest the use of such products in a short time only and only when symptoms of menopause are very annoying. Men may benefit from hormone replacement therapy when they suffer drops of progesterone during aging. This may become evident when a man suffering with prostate problems. Men should talk to your doctor about hormone replacement therapy before selftreatment. Symptoms of prostate problems can include difficulty urinating, frequent urination, bedwetting, and bladder infection. Benefits of progesterone cream are worth considering for men suffering with prostate problems. Studies suggest that women go through menopause will greatly benefit from hormone replacement therapy. The benefits of hormone replacement therapy may help prevent heart disease and maintain optimal cholesterol levels. However, there are some drawbacks because it can increase a woman's risk of developing other diseases. Studies with the most promising results indicate that the surest way for a woman to use hormone therapy is to use estrogen therapy not only progesterone, but should include a regular basis. Use a natural progesterone cream can help balance the estrogen in the body, thus reducing a woman's risk of developing cancer of the breast or uterus. Women who do not experience a lot of unpleasant symptoms, can not realize the benefits of hormone replacement therapy, simply because they know the latest studies show the benefits of doing so. For women who are in perimenopause, also known as premenopause, there are other options to help balance hormone levels. A doctor may try a low dose contraceptive pills control if the patient continues to have a monthly cycle. A low dose birth control pills can help control regular cycles and balance hormone levels. There are some common side effects associated with birth control pills, but many lower doses appear to have the fewest side effects. These may include breaking the bleeding between cycles, nausea, vomiting, abdominal bloating, breast tenderness and heaviness, depression, weight gain and headaches. The benefits of progesterone cream to minimize the symptoms of perimenopause may be worthwhile to consider before using birth control pills. Sometimes a doctor may try different things to see what works best for patient.Eating healthy and exercise can help manage the uncomfortable symptoms of menopause. A woman may want to consider lifestyle changes and taking supplements before trying hormone replacement therapy. Being overweight can cause uncomfortable symptoms worse. Losing weight will provide many health benefits and help minimize the symptoms often experienced during menopause. Some other options to hormone replacement therapy is natural progesterone cream, skin patch bioidentical estrogen and progesterone and estrogen from plant sources. Women who have certain health conditions should not take hormone replacement therapy. Some of these include cancers of the breast or uterus, ovarian cancer, gallbladder disease, blood clots, and fibroids.For more information: www.christianet.com / menopause br br

Most Americans have never heard of the MRIguided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS), however, is a technology that promises to revolutionize medical care worldwide. br were in the same spot as we were focused ultrasound with magnetic resonance diagnosis for decades, said Neal F. Kassell, MD, professor of neurosurgery at the University of Virginia School of Medicine and an internationally known advocate of research and development focused ultrasound. In the '80s, nobody knew of MRI. Today, almost everyone has or had one or know someone who has had an MRI. That's how common it is. Kassell br MRgFUS technological believes marriage magnetic resonance imaging and focused ultrasound therapeutic development may be more important from the scalpel. That notion will soon be explored by dozens of his colleagues from nine specialties that participate in a robust program of research and clinical trials of new UVA Focused Ultrasound Center, which was dedicated on September 14. br specialists conducting research in the center of the UVA represent a wide range of disciplines such as anesthesiology, biomedical engineering, gynecology, neurology, neurosurgery, oncology, radiology, surgery and radiation oncology urology. Over the next months, his research will focus on the use of MRgFUS for treating brain, breast, prostate, bone and liver tumors and diseases such as epilepsy, stroke, chronic pain, Parkinson's disease and essential tremor. br MRgFUS During treatments that are noninvasive and performed on an outpatient basis, patients are at a table while doctors use the visual capabilities of magnetic resonance imaging to direct hundreds of individual sound waves and usually harmless treatment with a single point inside the body. br When crossed, the ultrasound waves have enough energy to destroy tumor cells, like sun rays can be focused with a magnifying glass to burn a hole through a piece of paper, said Alan H. Matsumoto, MD The technology is so precise that it can treat the sites as small as one millimeter, which is approximately half a rice grain. br In addition to conducting investigations, Matsumoto, who is president of the UVA Department of Radiology and codirector of the new center will provide field of ultrasound treatment for patients with uterine fibroids. This is the first focused ultrasound treatment approved by the FDA, and will be an important addition to the range of treatments available for patients with uterine fibroids, says. br treatments will be available in late October, will take about three hours. Side effects, if any, are small cramps often less is more common and patients can expect to feel well enough to resume daily activities almost immediately. br Looking ahead, James M. Larner, MD, director of the UVA Center Focused Ultrasound and Chairman, Department of Radiation Oncology, according to a case by case approach will have to test the safety and efficacy of new technology to treat other conditions. I'm cautious by nature, he says, but we must admit I'm really excited about the possibilities of focused ultrasound and the benefits it can offer to our patients. br As a radiation oncologist, Larner is impressed by the ability of focused ultrasound to destroy 100 percent of the cancer cells. Chemotherapy kills a certain percentage of malignant cells, but not all, states. br Three other aspects of the plot MRgFUS Larner. First, its imaging capabilities allow physicians to see as heat destroys the cells of ultrasound. This can give us a new level of certainty about how well our treatments work, he says. br Finally, focused ultrasound has a quick drop off administration, ie, technology focused high levels of heat at a target site, but does not spread to nearby healthy tissue, which may cause damage or complications patients. UVA br new center, which is one of 90 sites focused ultrasound worldwide, is the first to use your computer MRgFUS exclusively for research and treatments. The facility is also the first to be designated as a center of excellence for Focused Ultrasound Surgery Foundation, a nonprofit organization created by Kassell to accelerate the development of new treatments. br Each day that this technology is that people is not widely available means to suffer and die needlessly, Kassell says. That's what makes it an urgent matter. br As noted Kassell, bricks and mortar are not as important as the brain in UVA new center. People smarter and more talented We are fortunate today to have some part in our disciplinary research program, explains. They have what it takes to lead the way in this emerging field of medicine. br br

Fibroids are masses of tissue that start from the uterine muscle and then grow into the cavity within the wall and push outward, toward the uterus. There are three types of fibroids, the most common to grow within the uterine wall (intramural), but fibroids can grow within the uterine cavity (intracavitary), or outside the uterus (subserosal). Health care providers can call the tumors, leiomyomas or fibroids. These lumps are not cancerous and require no treatment unless they are causing problems, such as pelvic pain, bleeding, or heavy menstrual periods or uncomfortable. br fibroid growing inside the uterine cavity is much less common than other types, but any type of fibroids may affect reproductive function and can cause infertility or miscarriage. br It is estimated that up to 1 in 5 women of childbearing age have uterine fibroids. They are found more frequently in women over age 30 rarely seen in women under 20 years and are more common in African Americans than Caucasians. br Although not known what causes uterine fibroids, which seem to require the hormone estrogen to grow. A fibroid is likely to continue growing slowly, while the woman is menstruating. At the onset of menopause, when hormone levels drop, fibroids can be reduced or disappear. br cervical polyps are small fingerlike growths, similar to a wart or skin tag, found in the cervix. They are common and are found more frequently in women over age 20 who have had children. Young women who have not yet started menstruating rarely have polyps. br A woman may have one or more polyps. Although usually not cancerous, all polyps should be evaluated by a physician. They are easy to remove and often do not grow back. br The cause of cervical polyps is not clearly understood. We could develop a chronic (long term), inflammation or obstruction or any alteration in blood vessels in the cervical canal. Researchers believe that polyps may also be an abnormal response to increased estrogen levels. br Many polyps do not interfere with the ability to become pregnant. However, large or multiple polyps can sometimes cause problems with fertility or the outcome of recurrent miscarriage. br br

If you need IVF treatment in order to get pregnant, we have to do certain tests

2009-10-13T12:15:00.001-07:00

If you need IVF treatment in order to get pregnant, we have to do certain tests to determine: 1. If we do IVF for you 2. What type of IVF treatment would be best for you (IVF: ICSI ZIFT Donor Egg) 3. What chances of success are many clinics to a huge pile of evidence routinely before starting IVF treatment. They use a checklist approach can senseless drain some blood and money! Many of these tests are meaningless, since they provide little useful information. However, this seems the norm, especially in major IVF centers (that run as mills and employ a large number of physicians) as well as in the U.S., where the test is often done for nonmedical reasons. We prefer to adopt a simplified, patient friendly approach, focusing on what is important medially. We customize these tests, depending on the patient. In order to do IVF, we just have to remember to check the following: eggs, sperm, uterus and fallopian tubes. In general, not just the following simple medical tests before starting an IVF cycle. If the tests were done in the past year, there is no need to repeat them. For the husband, all we need is a simple analysis of semen (www.drmalpani.com / semen analysis.htm), to check the sperm count, motility and morphology. a. If your normal, then we do IVF. b. If your abnormal, then we do ICSI. If there is an element of doubt (for example, counts vary widely), then ICSI is a safer option, as fertilization is guaranteed c. If its zero, then we must consider the sperm retrieval by TESE or PESA Women need more extensive testing. 1. blood tests for the following reproductive hormones: FSH (follicle stimulating hormone), LH (luteinizing hormone), PRL (prolactin) and TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone), the cycle day 3, (to check the quality of eggs). This must be done from a reliable lab such as Specialty Ranbaxy (www.srl.in). If these tests are normal, then the standard superovulation regimen can be followed. However, if there is a problem, then this must be corrected. a. A high prolactin (www.drmalpani.com / prolactin.htm) can be corrected by treatment with bromocriptine or cabergoline B. Abnormal levels of thyroid (www.drmalpani.com / thyroid.htm) can be treated with medications c. An abnormal LH: FSH suggests PCOS. This must be corrected before starting metformin IVF. Furthermore, superovulation must be softer d. High levels of FSH and high FSH: LH level suggests poor ovarian reserve. This means that the response to superovulation can be poor and reduces the success rate. Poor ovarian reserve (www.drmalpani.com / oopause.htm). Additional testing may be necessary, as a stimulation test clomid; tests AMH (antihormone levels M�ller) and antral follicle count. The options may include treating ovarian reserve improve with empirical treatment and more aggressive use of superovulation for IVF. An alternative would be to consider donor eggs or donor embryos 2. a (Hysterosalpingography HSG, Xray of the uterus and tubes) on Day 8 of the cycle (to confirm normal uterine cavity and fallopian tubes are open. You can read about it in www.drmalpani.com / hsg . htm. The HSG can be painful and not always essential prior to IVF. However, it is a great way to document that the uterus is anatomically normal (especially in cities with poor medical services). Alternatives HSG include vaginal ultrasound scan, but the quality should be high. If the HSG is normal and the fallopian tubes are normal, then an additional treatment option that can offer is TET (www.drmalpani.com / zift.htm) where embryos can be transferred directly into the fallopian tubes instead of the uterine cavity, to improve chances of implantation. 3. ultrasound vaginal ultrasound on day 10 or 11, you should check the following. AB ovarian volume account antral follicle d. c. uterus endometrial thickness and texture morphology Since the interpretation of ultrasound is so subjective, it is important to do this at a good quality. The best centers have digital ultrasound machines, which enable them to give a scanner into a JPEG file you can save on a DVD or flash drive. If there is an anomaly, then the latest ultrasound techniques, such as 3D ultrasound vaginal provide more information. If a polyp, then it will have to be removed to do a hysteroscopy. intramural fibroids (uterine wall) need not be removed prior to IVF because it does not affect embryo implantation. You can read more about this in www.drmalpani.com / fibroidsandinfertility.htm. submucosal fibroids (found in the uterine cavity) must be eliminated. can be removed with better surgical hysteroscopy (www.drmalpani.com / hysteroscopy.htm).

Other tests include checking of rubella immunity, if have not been vaccinated against rubella. If the test shows that there is a problem, then this can be treated before starting IVF! Other clinical tests are much more extensive. these include tests for esoteric conditions such as: immunity testing, testing for tuberculosis (including blood tests for antibodies against tuberculosis and PCR in an endometrial biopsy), routine hysteroscopy to check the uterine cavity, and evidence of TORCH. Many patients are very impressed by proof doctors for so many people. They feel these doctors are very careful and thorough! However, the truth is that most of these tests are useless and just waste time and money. Before doing all these tests, ask doctor for a simple question: do the results of this test change my IVF treatment Remember, if the test result will not change their treatment, theres no point in doing the test! br br

2009-10-13T10:24:00.001-07:00

Nobody really knows why some women get fibroids and others not, or why some women have them and have no symptoms. It is speculated that estrogen dominance is the culprit, or genetics, and although I have investigated alternatives to surgery for 10 years I have not found anything that works to reduce its size. I found relief from pain and bleeding by acupuncture, but never a reduction in the size, and treatment is very expensive. I paid around $ 200.00 a week for treatment, and while they helped me they never really solved the problem. I have tried using diet as this right and what is done instead of shrinking tumors, I have been shrunk to the point where now you can easily feel when I fell. Its weird and strange and a little creepy and reminds me of being pregnant, but not IM. br So after waiting a long time to take action, I'm in a situation requiring open abdominal surgery, which frankly scares the shit out of me, but my life has become unmanageable and I feel I am optionwhich, except for having a hysterectomy that I refuse to do. If you wonder why or if you just want a lesson in female anatomy, or if you are considering a hysterectomy to go to the website of the HERS Foundation and see the anatomy lesson to discover the true function of the uterus and discover the side effects hysterectomy. If you have had a hysterectomy and have symptoms that can not understand or if your doctor says your symptoms are all in your head you may want to watch this to understand why. Many times symptoms after hysterectomy noshow for the years after the procedure than ever and many women make the connection between their symptoms and cause. The site is somewhat radical, or at least by the standards or medical societys (gynecomastia) rules, because women are told that if the uterus is bad just remove it, or part thereof, but side effects are well hidden by the Most doctors, or sad most doctors simply do not know. I would support informed consent and that the only reason he fell to the uterus is removed if its cancer, like any other diseased organ, but the fibroids are not cancerous and whether harvesting early can be removed without much trouble or major surgery. Unfortunately most women with fibroids are told to wait and see and see what happens, but I can tell you what happens, they grow until they are unbearable to live with and then you have to look across a surgeon who provide anything but a hysterectomy. Also, the fibroids continue to develop until age 40 and no new ones appear often, women are told the reason that recur after surgery to remove them is because not all were removed to begin with, especially if they are told to take a drug called Lupron to shrink and then some are too small to be seen and eliminated. It is also a fallacy that the fibroids stop growing after menopause, another reason for one, was told to wait because I am so close to that age, many women continue to grow after menopause, and I read a couple of stories of women in their 70s who got them or just discovered them. br So, if I had it to do over I would have waited until I was 41 or so and then I'd had all my fibroids removed, but hindsight being what it is, not me. So Tuesday morning at 7:30 in the morning I go to hospital for major surgery and I'm afraid. I hope the pain of surgery and recovery (6 weeks) will solve this problem once and for all, so I can live the rest of my life is not governed by my uterus! Needless to say, not be about blogging again, probably about 3 weeks, but you never know. If you do not see me posting you know why br I hope everyone else is having a fabulous Sunday. I will miss everyone, and until then, be well, be happy and love as much as you can! br br

The Food and Drug Administration U.S. today approved Mirena (levonorgestrel intrauterine system) to treat heavy menstrual bleeding in women using intrauterine contraceptives as a method of preventing pregnancy. This is the intrauterine device first approved by the FDA for this additional indication. br Mirena as a contraceptive was approved by the FDA in 2000. This is a small, flexible devicereleasing hormone that is inserted into the uterus to prevent pregnancy. The device must be inserted by a trained medical professional. br Women who suffer severe, prolonged menstrual periods condition found unpleasant, disabling and frightening Said Kathleen Uhl, MD, director of the FDA s Office for Women s Health. The bleeding can be so heavy that women have to miss work, school or social activities. br In the primary clinical trial, women using Mirena showed a statistically significant reduction in menstrual blood loss, Said Scott Monroe, MD, director of the Division of Reproductive and Urologic Products at the FDA s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. br The clinical trial participants had excessive menstrual blood loss before treatment and has no medical conditions that are known to cause heavy menstrual bleeding, except for small uterine fibroids in some cases. br Mirena is recommended for women who have had a child. Clinical studies to support both contraception and heavy menstrual bleeding indications have excluded women who have never been pregnant. br Since its approval in 2000, the most serious adverse reactions in patients using Mirena for any indication include: ectopic pregnancy (pregnancy in which the fertilized egg grows outside the uterus), intrauterine pregnancy (pregnancy with Mirena in place ), group A streptococcal sepsis, an infection called pelvic inflammatory disease; embedment of the device in the uterine wall, and perforation of the uterine wall or cervix. br The most common adverse events reported by patients in the primary clinical trial using Mirena to treat heavy menstrual bleeding or spotting uterine bleeding at irregular intervals, headache, ovarian cysts, vaginitis, pain during menstruation (dysmenorrhea), pelvic pain, and breast tenderness. br br

If you have uterine fibroids, as many other women who may have initially sought treatment from your doctor and frankly, I found that the options were very limited. In fact, many doctors recommend taking no action at all as fibroids shrink during menopause. In severe cases, hormonal treatment or invasive surgery may be recommended, but unfortunately are not permanent solutions. br More and more women who seek natural treatment of uterine fibroids as a possible solution, and many have had tremendous success. BR which is difficult to locate the fibroids exactly what has caused difficulties in designing a conventional treatment that works permanently. Some of the triggers affect different women in different ways and this only complicates things further. To give an example, we know that excess weight and have above average levels of estrogen may be contributing factors. However, not all women with these two factors have fibroids and those with varying degrees of severity. Br To state matters simply, if you can not eliminate the cause of fibroids, which will continue to thrive and even grow over time, even after conventional treatment has given its best. However, the natural treatment of uterine fibroids using a multifaceted approach that can systematically eliminate all possible causes, making your body hostile to the growth of fibroids. br A good natural treatment of uterine fibroids is to have a complete liver detoxification. This is due to compounds that mimic estrogen can be blocked in the liver and can fuel the growth of fibroids. These substances are derived from environmental toxins and pesticide residues. Excess estrogen is a real problem for women with fibroids and lower levels to normal can be a good way to start reducing uterine fibroids. Losing weight can help control estrogen and estrogen is stored and produced by fat cells. Eating foods with antiinflammatory properties may have a calming effect on fibroids, as well as oats, hops, and cumin in the diet can be helpful. A br thing must be prepared for if you are wanting to try the natural treatment of uterine fibroids is the fact that you have to do a combination of lifestyle and dietary changes to ensure success and therefore should have a degree of personal motivation. However, for women who can maintain the motivation for a relatively short space of time, there is no doubt that the rewards are enormous. If you are considering surgery, or even a hysterectomy, which makes complete sense to try natural treatment first, providing you know that fibroids are not life threatening. br The lack of real help to the women took an alternative practitioner to design a complete system of 7 steps for women who wanted to use the natural treatment of uterine fibroids. As a result, she has helped thousands of women around the world to reduce their fibroids. br For more general information and to learn all about different types of fibroids, the more the different treatments for each, please visit my website to reduce fibrosis.

The raw food movement is touring with the rawness of Women Go headed by Dr. Ariel Policano, a naturopathic doctor who studied nutrition living foods from the meeting Dr. Ann Wigmore in Puerto Rico in 1993 Women's Tour . The Go RV raw video is a project designed to document the impact that raw food is having on women's health and lives of women in the U.S. Document these changes are powerful, visiting one on one with women across the country throughout September and hearing their amazing stories. Daily interviews, health tips and food demonstrations will be sent via video blogs on the website WomenGoRaw. It includes true stories of inspiring entrepreneurs, healers, mothers, authors and experts such as Susan Schenck, Angela Elliott, and Angela Stokes.Dr. Policano mission is to show people stay healthy and free of disease and for the humor and fun in the process. For more information about women in gross Go Tour, please visit www.womengoraw.comNK: Could you please, first to our readers a bit about your project you are doing with WomenGoRaw. The women in the rough is documenting the impact that raw foods are having on the lives of women and women's health. For the month of September, I have been traveling through BiodieselRV solar. I have completed 25 interviews from today, September 19. These include interviews with Cherie Soria, Ani Phyo, Victoria Boutenko, Engelhardt Coffee Tercia gratitude and many more. With each interview, I say to myself: quot; That's one of the most incredible women I've met in my life! Quot; What I have noticed is that each respondent looked years younger than her age. Everyone seemed very healthy, peaceful and happy. That does not mean I do not expect that these women have bad days or that are not human. However, it was obvious they were living their lives in a way that was very satisfying for them. They do not seem to struggle with life! Obviously, health is important for these women. He also worked hard to keep evolving their concept of a healthy diet over time. They changed their diet of heavy, nutbased foods of crude to lighter fare including salads and lots of green foods in the form of green juices, green smoothies, spirulina and chlorella.NK: I work with a lot of women clients who want to improve their health through diet and exercise and work with a lot of women who are older in their 40 # 39; s who want to have children and feel powerless. I am not a doctor but I do believe in the healing work of Mother Nature so I suggest a diet of raw foods, yoga, meditation, regular cleansing herbal, prayer, even suggest taking lessons in belly dancing and pole dancing lessons, because I know the benefits it has given me and I know not its metaphysics that women are infertile, it's just that there is a blockage. What's your take on infertility and women and how women can improve their chances of having children in their late 30's, 40 or even 50 # 39; s I think a lot of infertility is due to toxins in the environment that creates a hormonal condition called estrogen dominance. This not only puts women at risk of female reproductive cancers, but causes an imbalance between estrogen and progesterone. This imbalance is the major cause of infertility. If women follow their instructions, which will perform well in solving their problems with infertility. Here are some specific suggestions: Drink fluids glass, not plastic. This will reduce your exposure to plastics to increase estrogen levels, "Eat fruits and vegetables. Pesticides also increase estrogen levels harmful . The use of flax oil a day. I recommend Barlean's Flax Oil . Eat hemp seed and chia seed as often as possible in salads and smoothies . Help your liver, which breaks down estrogen harmful to us, through a clean diet and liver regular cleanses.NK: You make a lot of work with women and fibroids What recommendations would you give to women who have fibroids Is the origin of fibromas and why so many women do Lou Corona is a mentor to me. he has eaten a raw vegan diet for 36 years. he believes the growth of fibroids is due to a deficiency of the enzyme. I recommend that women, even in a raw food diet, eating 5 doctors grade enzymes with each meal every day. This may sound like a a lot of work, but the benefits are worth it. Which is exactly what is happening here By eating cooked food for many years, it puts a burden on the pancreas to produce all the enzymes necessary for digestion. This challenges the body and leads to incomplete breakdown and absorption of food. It also reduces the effective elimination of waste. In the philosophy of natural medicine, we see that the fibroids as an accumulation of waste. So many women have fibroids as they consume a diet of mostly cooked food. But there's more to the story as well. diet that causes a hormone imbalance can also cause fibroids to grow. This goes back to estrogen dominance. If a woman consumes very little essential fatty acids, which are the building blocks of hormones for health, and lots of processed foods, then it is very likely end up being quot; dominantequot estrogen;. Many fibroids are quot; estr�genosquotsensitive, which means that they grow more easily in the presence of high estrogen levels.NK: I always feel as if we as a planet do most of the healing work with women, then all time will heal the planet Why focus on work with women What is your passion behind it 75% of consumers of health care are women. I have found that women more than men, are interested in taking a proactive approach to your health. However, we are very interested in men and children! Through my own workshops have found that women also carry the information to their partners and children. So ultimately benefits everyone and get the message about raw food, which is what women like to see raw happen.NK Go:: What's on your plate today It's about food If so, I started my day with watermelon juice and then blended with Pure Synergy. Pure Synergy is a powerful complement herbal green designed by Mitchell May. There is a great mix of healthy vegetables and antioxidants and adaptogenic herbs there. In general, they help a person to have sustainable energy, clean daily and protected from the harmful effects of toxins.I then had a roll of nori filled with sprouts, raw cabbage, avocaodo, and other raw vegetables and a dressing. Later, some for fresh market organic local farmers here in Ashland. I stay in Ashland, Oregon for a few days after interviewing Victoria Boutenko.NK:: What are your favorite foods My favorite food is very simple. I love figs, which are actually a super food. They are rich in potassium and iron, among other things. I like avocados, berries such as raspberries and blackberries, salads with mixed greens high, deep greens, like kale lacinato (avocado, coleslaw is a staple for me). I have a lot of different types of shakes, smoothies and green. I consume lots of healthy seeds and oils. These include coconut oil, flax oil, hemp seeds and chia seeds.NK: � How and why you first start entering fodos raw and living What has motivated and what keeps you motivated I started eating raw and living foods after he met Ann Wigmore in 1993. I went to his school in Puerto Rico. 2 weeks of all raw foods, like wheat grass and sprouts, completely changed my life. He inspired me to continue Reseach natural health. I attended a 4 year medical institution for holistic health. What motivates me is that I've seen quot; milagrosasquot priests, with raw foods. I also have never felt better in myself that when they eat raw food. I want to see everyone feels very healthy and not suffering from diseases like cancer and diabetes. Even putting a small amount of raw foods in your diet can and will have difference.What advice for our readers in eating more raw foods What are the benefits and what you offer stories of transformation to witness to people Be gentle with yourself and go slow. Most important is the momentum. Just keep moving towards health. Read books on raw food recipes and raw food and make it fun! Eat lots of varieties and try new dishes or a new fruit or vegetable that has never tried before.NK:: Anything else you want to tell our readers, please so.Dr.AP: Thanks so much! Thank Nwenna. br br

The symptoms of estrogen dominance largely headaches to breast cancer diagnosismaking difficult. This chemical plays a role in the operation of several different areas of the body, creating problems not only concentrated in the reproductive area. Pay attention to the body and any significant changes to aid in early detection and treatment more successful. Similarly, the education of a normal life cycle of a woman who will help determine what changes are expected and what is need for alarm. Many times people do not tell their doctors about certain diseases that have because they are embarrassed, I feel it's nothing to worry about, or someone advised them not to worry. Always inform your doctor if a concern surfaces. Early detection saves lives and prevents symptoms of other diseases.Many help diagnose a variety of diseases, but if a person has breast cancer, fibrocystic breasts, uterine fibroids, uterine cancer, polycystic ovaries, endometrial cancer, cancer ovarian cancer, osteoporosis or evidence for estrogen dominance should be carried out. When testing a woman who is likely to avoid further complications with these diseases if it is the central issue. Other symptoms include allergy problems, cold hands and feet, decreased sexual desire, mood swings, dry eyes, depression, fatigue, irregular periods, and headaches. Although these diseases can be described other diseases, and diseases like blood sugar, dehydration and poor nutrition of a patient's physician must notify any changes in lifestyle and fitness. After the diagnosis of a person is likely to desire how to lower estrogen levels and medical treatment options. Finding a doctor that meets the physical and mental needs of the patient is essential. A doctor must be willing to work with the patient and respect their wishes and needs. This may mean that the minimal medical attention and a greater focus on healthy living. Most diseases have a history within families, making family history important in the diagnosis and prevention of any disease. Similarly, if a family has a history of related symptoms, misdiagnosis can be a problem. Health issues such as hypoglycemia, insomnia, slow metabolism, infertility, PMS, zinc deficiency, bloating, weight gain, hair loss, memory loss, and unstable blood sugar may all be symptoms of estrogen dominance. A doctor will help educate the patient on how to lower the estrogen level on the basis of exceptional circumstances, such as current health issues and family history. Find a doctor who is educated enough to make a proper diagnosis and interested in current research is important for the general welfare of the patient. Accelerated aging, increased fat in the hips and thighs, thyroid dysfunction, magnesium deficiency, and gallbladder disease are among the most commonly diagnosed symptoms of estrogen dominance. The emergence of this problem can start as early as age 30, but may not occur until age 60, or may not occur at all. It is false to assume that every woman going through menopause have this problem. It is false to assume that men do not experience symptoms. Given current levels of estrogen and progesterone in men and women, men are likely to have problems with estrogen and women have testosterone problems. Learn to reduce the level of estrogen can be as simple as diet changes for some people. Depending on the type of meat and other chemically modified products a person consumes artificial sweeteners including changes in diet can solve all problems. Similarly, the problems that occur due to poor nutrition and inadequate exercise can lead to a weakening of the body that can create the environment for the symptoms of estrogen dominance. Other factors may include stressful lifestyle, yoyo diets, obesity, birth control pills, estrogen replacement therapy, hysterectomies, and exposure to environmental toxins. Due to the variety of ways in which this disease occurs over a wide range of symptoms, there are many ways to treat and prevent. Natural progesterone supplementation is a safe way to help balance the chemicals in the body. Specific instructions for use are available by prescription and must be followed correctly optimum results. This therapy has a history of treating the symptoms of most children, including hair loss and dehydration. If the symptoms reach the level of cancer then chemotherapy or radiation therapy is necessary, however, the doctor will determine a safe time in which natural progesterone cream can be used to prevent further problems. Eating organic meat and dairy products has proved highly successful in preventing and treating this disease and the consumption of whole grains, fruits and vegetables. Learning to reduce the estrogen level on the basis of the diet is simple, with the guidance of a nutritionist or medical practitioner. quot; The pleasant words are like a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and health of huesos.quot; (Proverbs 16:24) In addition to proper nutrition, consistent exercise plan further ensure success. A person exercising have more energy, look younger, have a stronger body in general, be in a better mood, and reduce the risk of heart disease. Cardiovascular exercise 3045 minutes a day every day will also reduce the risk of developing diseases like heart disease, hypertension, colon cancer and diabetes. Strength training and stretching will provide more health benefits especially as people age. In addition to more power and better immune system, exercise increases sexual desire, leading to another type of treatment success. In the end, a person with a balanced life greatly decrease the likelihood of experiencing symptoms of estrogen dominance.For more information: www.christianet.com / menopause br br

Fibroids are rarely dangerous and this leads many doctors to recommend that are best left alone because they will decrease naturally during menopause. The truth is that there is no satisfactory conventional treatment to deliver what will ensure that fibroids do not return. Although surgical removal is no guarantee that unless you treat the cause of fibroids, simply regrow. However, many women around the world have found extraordinary success when using a natural remedy for fibroids, but there is no guarantee of success unless you're willing to put the effort in br base Determining the cause of fibroids can be a problem. It is known that fibroids grow in response to various factors which happen to coincide in a womans body so that it triggers the growth of the fibroid. For example, this might include excess estrogen, poor nutrition, hereditary factors, exposure to environmental toxins, lack of exercise.and the list goes on. Maybe this gives you an idea why fibroids can be difficult to treat! br There are several treatment strategies that can be used to give symptomatic relief. However, when used in isolation, is unlikely to offer a complete cure. Only one way that we can achieve and that is the use of a natural remedy for fibroids that takes into account every possible known cause of fibroids without exception and systematically eliminating each and every one. br no way to know exactly what has caused the fibroids, so this strategy is a kind of stone unturned method that makes absolutely no margin for error. You are required to make changes in diet and lifestyle, eliminate toxins, making both herbal and nutritional supplements and increase their exercise. If you are the type of person who likes to just take a pill, forget about being cured, then this will not be for you. However, if you want to take charge of your own healing and feel you could make changes, if that means you would be free of symptoms of fibroids, there is no reason to use a natural remedy for fibroids does not work . br The other options are very hard it is, leave things as they are and live with the symptoms of what could be terrible, for surgery without any guarantee of success, or try a natural remedy for fibroids could be the key their success. br Fibroids are a condition to respond well to natural resources and are an ideal condition to treat because as they are so rarely life threatening. It makes sense to try a completely natural treatment for fibroids before resorting to surgery or any of the hormonal drugs that can cause its own side effects. Frustrated by the lack of time had to treat people because of high demand, an alternative practitioner has developed a complete system that guarantees to completely eliminate the fibroids and their symptoms naturally.

2009-10-09T11:42:00.001-07:00

All of us, occasionally, the experience of what we feel is very heavy bleeding during menstrual periods. Fortunately, most of the time what we think is abnormal uterine bleeding is not excessive as to be diagnosed as menorrhagia. br do you know when the bleeding during your period is abnormally heavy The easiest way to tell if you are experiencing menorrhagia is to take note of how often you need to change your pad or tampon. If your period is heavy enough to require changing more often than every one or two hours, or if you have a period lasting more than a full week, you may be experiencing menorrhagia. br A hormonal imbalance during adolescence or menopause is the most common cause of heavy menstrual bleeding. During adolescence after girls have their first stroke, and for several years before the onset of menopause when menstruation ceases, hormone levels are fluctuating which often leads to excessive uterine bleeding during our periods. It is often possible to treat menorrhagia caused by hormonal imbalances with birth control pills or other hormones. br uterine fibroid tumors are another common cause of excessive menstruation. It is important to understand that fibroid tumors are usually benign (not cancerous) that often occur in the uterus of women during the thirty or forty years. While the cause of uterine fibroid tumors is unclear, it is evident that estrogendependent. Several surgical treatments are available for treating fibroid tumors of the uterus and myomectomy, endometrial ablation, uterine artery and uterus embalization the balloon therapy and hysterectomy. Nonsurgical treatments for fibroids include pharmacological GnRH agonists, oral contraceptives, androgens, RU486 (the abortion pill), and gestrinone. Some women find natural progesterone to be an effective treatment for uterine fibroids. Often, when symptoms are not severe or troublesome, a quot; wait and verquot; approach is taken. Once menopause occurs, fibroids usually shrink and disappear without treatment. br cervical polyps are small, fragile growths that begin in the mucosal surface or cervical or endocervical canal and protrude through the cervical opening. The cause of cervical polyps is not clear, however, often are the result of an infection and often associated with an abnormal response to increased estrogen levels or congestion of the blood vessels in the cervix. The women most affected by cervical polyps are those over the age of twenty who have had children. A simple office procedure that removes out patient growth, along with antibiotics is the usual treatment for cervical polyps. br endometrial polyps are typically noncancerous, which protrude from the wall of the uterus. The cause of endometrial polyps is unclear, although they are often associated with excess estrogen after hormone treatment or some types of ovarian tumors. Treatments for endometrial polyps include hysteroscopy and D A pathology lab will evaluate cancer endometrial polyps after removal. br Lupus is a chronic inflammation and autoimmune disease that affects several body parts, especially the skin, joints, blood and kidneys. The cause of lupus is not clear, however, believes that patients have a genetic predisposition to Lupus and scientists know that environmental factors such as infections, certain types of antibiotics including penicillin and sulfa, ultraviolet light, stress severe, hormones and certain other drugs play a key role in triggering the symptoms of the disease. Lupus symptoms vary widely between patients and treatments ranging from avoiding stress to drugs such as nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs or NSAIDs, paracetamol, steroids, antimalarials, cytotoxic or immunosuppressive drugs and anticoagulants. br Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is an infection of one or more organs that affects the uterus, fallopian tubes and cervix. PID is very often a sexually transmitted disease, however, sometimes occurs after childbirth, abortion, or other gynecological procedures. The recommended treatment for pelvic inflammatory disease is antibiotic therapy. br Cervical cancer is a type of cancer occurs when cervical cells become abnormal, multiply out of control, and damage healthy parts of the body. The human papillomavirus, or HPV, is the cause of more than ninety percent of all cervical cancers. Treatments for cervical cancer are surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. br Endometrial cancer occurs when abnormal cells in the uterus or endometrium (lining of the uterus) multiply out of control and damage to the uterus and other organs. Although the cause of endometrial cancer is unknown, it is known that women diagnosed with this type of cancer tend are usually over fifty, often have endometrial hyperplasia, or many times use hormone replacement therapy (HRT). The first treatment for endometrial cancer is usually a hysterectomy, possibly followed by chemotherapy and / or radiation treatments. br IUD or intrauterine devices used for contraception are a potential cause of heavy menstrual bleeding or menorrhagia. Women who experience prolonged or heavy periods while using the IUD should have removed the device and select an alternative method of birth control. br Bleeding disorders occur when it is difficult for a person to stop the bleeding. Although several types of clotting disorders, the most common type in women is von Willebrand Disease or VWD. Treatments for von Willebrand's disease include the delivery of data stored clotting factors in the blood, or in extreme cases, replacement of coagulation factor IV therapy or with prescribed nasal spray. br br

My hair journey I've done everything (except tissue). Relaxation, wigs, braid

2009-10-09T11:38:00.001-07:00

My hair journey I've done everything (except tissue). Relaxation, wigs, braid extensions, cut short # 39; FRO a lot. Mom mostly twisted as a child and pressed and curled for Easter and special occasions. For 20 years from the time he was 15, I permed / relaxed hair (except for a short time in college when I cut it to short side to side so he could swim regularly without worrying about the hair I drove my mom crazy). The burning and time in the room (4.5 hours because of its thickness and length) had its effect. The last time I was burned 8 years ago, I wondered what the hell he was doing and I grew to permanent. My natural hair is a mixture of curly and kinky, which makes them attractive for a wash # 39, and go # 39; look. Above all, it gets a blow out and flat iron (1.5 hours in the lounge) and I'm done. In the summer, I give moisture, and after washing to shoot in the bar and sit under the dryer for a natural shine and frizzy (it takes longer and is more maintenance, but it looks good). On holiday in Miami or the Caribbean, I braid (now without extensions). I'm happy with what takes the least amount of time and looks presentable. More importantly, healthy, and to be honest, I think it looks quot; Hellaquot; good. I share this to illustrate that the hair is not the same.

What are you hiding, why after all these years Still allow men to say that unless you look a certain way a miserable creature.

The dominant groups, however, sometimes adopt and redefine some of the ideals of the groups that oppress them as exotic. And so we see the ridiculous image of white women with swollen lips collagen or padded panties. These images may be stupid, but they represent cultural cherry picking for a minority of white women. It is sad that most black women can not let her hair go natural or style in a way that is not an imitation of a white aesthetic, but rather a celebration of African aesthetics. When people say they are tired of talking about it, minimizes the problems that lay under the option of adopting the styles. br The way I see it, black women are not the only ones wearing permanent tissue and hair.

As promised, this article discusses uterine fibroids. They are also known

As promised, this article discusses uterine fibroids. They are also known as myomas or fibroids. The medical term for them is leiomyoma (Lieomyoma). Big topic. I have to do it in two parts because I really want you to have all available information. br very Fibroids are common. At the age of 50, 80% of African American women and 70% of Caucasian women who have fibroids. Two thirds of the time these women have no symptoms and do not seek treatment for their fibroids. As older women tend to develop fibroids. In addition, women who have no or few children, those who eat a diet high in fat, those taking a certain medication called tamoxifen (used to treat breast cancer) and those with family history are most at risk. What is a fibroid It is a tumor of muscle fibers that form the uterus. Basically, it starts with a damaged muscle cell, this cell multiplies until remarkable dough is formed in the wall of the uterus. Fibroids grow larger in the presence of estrogen and that's why I usually shrink after menopause and may increase in size when a woman is pregnant. Some reports indicate that contraceptive pills can also cause fibroids to grow larger, while other reports in accordance with this notion. The jury is still here. What causes damage to a cell Who knows. It is the diet It is smoking Is because a person is overweight It is alcohol Is of hormones and chemicals used to increase food production I've done the surgery in vegetarians, skinny women, women who work six days a week and women who dont drink and shop at Whole Foods. br fibroids are found in three different sections of the uterus. Think about how having an avocado cut in half and remove the seed. Fibroids can be found near the outside, just below the deck as shown in the skin of the avocado. They can grow deep in the center of the muscle fibers, represented by the yellow color to the pale green of the avocado. Also found near the uterine wall, represented by the portion of the avocado can be seen after throwing away the seed. Fibroids that are close to the wall can even hang out in the uterine cavity. Most women will have more of a fibroma located in the three areas. Fibroids that are located in the cavity tend to be those that contribute to heavy bleeding and cause staining to occur days before or after the menstrual flow. Besides bleeding, many women report one or more of the following: a constant dull pain in the pelvis, rectal pressure, having to urinate frequently, pain with defecation and pain with sex. br In a pelvic exam, the gynecologist can feel the fibroids, and usually for a pelvic ultrasound. To better see the inside of the uterus, your doctor may perform a special test that uses a dye to trace the shape of the uterine cavity or to perform a hysteroscopy (hissteroscoPY), which uses a small camera to actually see inside the uterine cavity and take pictures. Sometimes, especially if the fibroid is enormous, as the size of a melon or larger, the doctor may require a CT or MRI. br I tell my patients, if fibroids do not bother, then do not bother, even if they are large. Unfortunately, one in three women, fibroids cause no symptoms. This leads to a discussion of what to do. There are some things we have available to help and the chosen depends on whether the woman wants children and the need to keep their uterus. Some women want to keep their uterus, even if they are planning to have kids. Some women are in pain, but I just cannot tolerate bleeding and, in fact, becoming anemic. br If my patients complaint is bleeding, then we can begin to birth control pills. In the absence of other medical problems, namely high blood pressure, diabetes or obesity, birth control pills are safe to drink until age 50. Honestly, birth control pills are not as effective in the face of fibroids, after a time most women become for some other relief. The Mirena IUD (Intrauterine Device) is another option. This device delivers hormones directly into the uterus and causes less bleeding. If you have a big bulky uterus with lots of fibroids can be difficult for the physician to place the IUD and the IUD can get expelled because of fibroids. Studies have shown that the Mirena IUD does not work. Get insurance coverage may prove difficult however, since the device is only approved by the FDA as a contraceptive. Avoid risks of surgery and taking time off from work may be worth the initial cost if you have to pay out of pocket. br If the pill or the IUD is not an option, an endometrial ablation is another way. This procedure can be done with different techniqueshot water, hot water in a balloon, freezing, microwave and electricitysimple destroys the uterine lining. Think for avocados. All her blood comes from the garrison, known as the endometrium. Simply carbonization or vaporization of this area can reduce the amount of blood loss. This procedure will require some form of anesthesia, but women go home the same day. I have had great success with ablation and patients are very happy. Note that this procedure can not be used if the uterus is too large, if the shape of the uterus does not allow the instruments to fit properly inside and if there is a big push fibroma or hanging into the cavity. Moreover, there is surgery. With surgery comes risks. Each technique has its own risks, but what is common to all approaches is the risk of making a hole in the uterus (uterine perforation). In most cases, the doctor simply has to stop the process and will return in a couple of weeks to try again, or try something else. In rare cases, perforation and not notice the heat is distributed outside the places uterusto as your bowel and bladder. This is rare. Rare. br If bleeding and pain are the culprits, then, that leaves us with one of the following: hysterectomy, myomectomy, laparoscopic myomectomy, the uterine artery embolization and focused ultrasound surgery. What is for you Which is going to preserve their fertility Going to need a cesarean section after fibroids surgically removed What will affect your sex life And, if you have a hysterectomy How long before the return of fibroids and once again, leave you wondering: what to do br br
