Pain during sex (Dyspareunia)

Dyspareunia is a condition where the woman experiences genital pain during sexual intercourse. It can deeply impact a woman’s quality of life. Dyspareunia has a high prevalence rate, which can cause significant economic and health burden. Symptoms of dyspareunia often go unreported as many health professionals do not inquire about it or women never report it to the doctor due to social embarrassment. Many factors like medical conditions, gynaecological problems, drugs, and social beliefs have led to a high prevalence of female sexual disorders. Pain during sex, though common, is an often neglected problem. It is seen in 3% to 18% of the global population. 

Women experiencing dyspareunia feel emotionally isolated due to lack of support from their partner and family. Reports of pain during sex also result in different levels of interests during sex and sexual preferences. Such factors are strongly associated with difficult communication with one’s sexual partner. Insufficient foreplay, inadequate lubrication, and spasms are often linked with painful penetration. Sometimes, a pelvic or a speculum exam may increase the pain. Diagnosis is primarily clinical and made by a detailed history and physical examination. Imaging tests might be needed purely to rule out possible medical conditions leading to dyspareunia. Finding the physical and/or the psychological causes are necessary for appropriate treatment. Treatment involves seeking counselling with a psychologist or a sexual health counsellor, marriage counsellor, improving communication with the partner and treating the underlying physical causes.

Despite an increase in literacy rate, sex is still considered a taboo in India. Most people lack sexual knowledge and those suffering from such illnesses do not seek treatment. Every individual should lead a healthy sexual relationship with their partner, as it is one of the key aspects of any marriage or relationship.

Abdominal pain during pregnancy

Summary

Abdominal pain in pregnancy is not unusual. However, it can be a disturbing experience, especially for women who are expecting their first baby. The causes of abdominal cramps can be multiple and include constipation, indigestion, round ligament pain, Braxton Hicks contractions, or exercising. There can also be more serious reasons such as ectopic pregnancy, miscarriage, placental abruption and premature labour, which are likely to produce more severe symptoms along with greater discomfort. It can be challenging to diagnose the cause of the pain, and it is highly recommended to visit the doctor immediately for a thorough assessment. However, if the pain resolves within a short span or as soon as one rests, it may not be a cause of concern. Ultrasound and MRI scans are commonly helpful to diagnose the exact cause of pain. The treatment depends upon the cause of pain. There are several self-care measures, which can help in the management of the situation.

Alfalfa Benefits and Side effects

Alfalfa is a livestock crop that is traditionally well known for its healing qualities. It belongs to the family Fabaceae along with lima beans and acacia and like all legumes, is rich in proteins.

Although there isn’t much scientific research on this grass, it still remains a herb of interest for scientists all over the globe; mainly due to its high nutrient content that makes it the perfect health supplement for human consumption. Being a commercially profitable crop, it is famously known as “Green gold” in the USA. A close watch is kept on its growth patterns and harvesting times to improve the quality and yield of alfalfa.

Interestingly, there is no clear record of the history of this crop and it is believed to have been growing in the wild even before the dawn of civilisation. However, there are some claims that designate the origins of alfalfa to eastern or central Asia, particularly Persia (now Iran), Kashmir, Syria, Iraq, Pakistan and Baluchistan. In fact, the name alfalfa comes from a Persian word which means “the best forage”. Today, this herb is found growing all over the world.

Alfalfa is a perennial plant that grows up to a height of 3 feet. It has deep roots and woody base with an upright stem. Alfalfa leaves are oval and trifoliate (three leaves grow together) and they are hairy on the underside. It bears purple coloured flowers in the month of May to July that grow in clusters and the seed pods are spiral, bearing 2 to 5 yellow to green kidney-shaped seeds.

Apart from being an excellent nutritional supplement, alfalfa has a number of healing benefits. In ayurveda, alfalfa sprouts are considered good for liver health and blood cleansing apart from being an efficient anti-arthritic and anti-obesity agent. It is most commonly studied for its hypolipidemic (Reduces fat) and anti-diabetic properties. Research is still going on to confirm the traditional claims and reap maximum benefits from this herb.

Miscarriage causes, signs and reasons

Miscarriage is one of the most dreaded situations in a woman’s life that brings with itself a plethora of emotions. Not only does it bring shock and guilt but also it is one of the major causes of depression and anxiety. The situation is worse for first-time mothers and women who already have issues with modern healthcare services.

Miscarriage meaning

Miscarriage refers to the natural loss of foetus before 20 weeks of pregnancy. You might be amazed to know that more than 10 to 15 % pregnancies terminate within the first trimester.

Some women don’t even know they are pregnant before the miscarriage.

But it does not mean that you can’t carry a baby again. Multiple miscarriages are as uncommon as 1 in 100 women. The immediate family needs to understand the situation. A woman needs all the support in this situation. It is also unfair to push her for a new pregnancy while she is still facing the trauma. Instead, proper counselling and guidance should be provided to improve her mental condition so she doesn’t develop a guilt of pregnancy loss or a fear of pregnancy.

Vaginal burning

Women are prone to experiencing problems like burning, itching and irritation in the vagina. Since it is one of the most sensitive parts of the body, it is important to understand the causes of problems and address them immediately. Burning can be caused due to exposure to irritants and chemicals, infections contracted through bacteria, yeast or transmitted sexually, UTIs or menopause. Common symptoms associated with burning include pain, redness or tenderness, discharge, abnormal bleeding and an unpleasant odour. The symptom is typically diagnosed for the underlying condition using a pelvic examination and blood or imaging tests to examine for other diseases.

Treatment for burning sensation in the vagina may include medication for infections, hormonal therapy, and simple self-care techniques that can bring relief. Improved sanitary care forms the basis for prevention of the condition, including using non-scented products, washing the vagina gently, avoiding synthetic clothing and drinking plenty of water. The possible risks associated with burning in the vagina include increased chances of contracting HIV, passing of infection to the baby in pregnant women and complications of contracting a sexually transmitted disease (STD).

Nightfall (Wet Dreams)

Summary

Nightfall, also known as a nocturnal emission or wet dream or sex dream, is an involuntary or spontaneous orgasm, which occurs during sleep and leads to the discharge of semen in males or vaginal secretion in females. It is most common in adolescents, and sexually active adults, especially when they have erotic dreams. The ejaculated fluid in men is called semen and it appears as a slightly thick, sticky discharge on the undergarments when one wakes up suddenly or early in the morning. It is sometimes embarrassing to find out and discuss this with anyone, especially parents. Causes of nightfall are hormonal changes and increased sexual urges. Diagnosis is made mainly by history and clinical examination. Prevention involves changes in thought process and certain lifestyle habits. Counselling is the choice of treatment. Herbal remedies may help control the symptoms.

दस्त रोकने के घरेलू उपाय - Home Remedies for Diarrhoea

Diarrhoea is the condition of having loose watery bowel movements at least three times a day. The condition can last from a few days to weeks depending upon the type of infection. It may or may not be accompanied by abdominal bloating, gas or flatulence. Fluid loss caused due to diarrhoea can often lead to dehydration.

With time, diarrhoea can often become more severe and lead to other conditions such as a decreased responsiveness, urination, heart rate, and loss of skin colour. Diarrhoea is a condition that can affect all age groups. Diarrhoea is one of the main causes of death and disease, especially among young children in low-income countries, according to the World Health Organization.

Why do you get diarrhoea?

Diarrhoea can be caused due to a wide variety of reasons which have been mentioned below. It, however, is mostly caused due to the ingestion of contaminated water.

  • The main causal organisms of diarrhoea include bacteria, virus, or a parasite.
  • The types of virus that cause diarrhoea include Rotavirus, Adenovirus, and Norovirus.
  • Bacterial infections cause a more serious type of diarrhoea. The bacteria causing diarrhoea include Shigella, Campylobacter, Escherichia coli, Yersinia, Listeria and Salmonella.
  • The main parasites responsible for causing diarrhoea include Entamoeba histolytica, Giardia lamblia, and Cryptosporidium.
  • Certain other diseases of the intestine such as irritable bowel syndrome, celiac disease and microscopic colitis can also cause diarrhoea.
  • In addition reactions to certain medications used for gout, blood pressure, cancer and even antibiotics.
  • Certain allergies such as lactose intolerance can cause diarrhoea as well.
  • Alcohol abuse, ie overconsumption of alcohol can also be a cause for diarrhoea.
  • Some types of cancer such as lymphoma, pancreatic cancer, and colon cancer could cause diarrhoea as well.

Signs you have diarrhoea

The symptoms of diarrhoea may vary depending upon how it is acquired. Viral infections usually range from mild to moderate. The symptoms caused due to bacterial infections are more severe like vomiting, severe abdominal pains, and fever. The bowel movements, in this case, are often more frequent and are accompanied by watery loose stool and violent expulsion of gas. In more severe bacterial infections causing diarrhoea, the stool may also be accompanied by pus, mucus, or blood.

Boils: Causes, treatment and home remedies

Boil refers to the redness and inflammation of the skin occurring due to an infection of the hair follicles, which affects the surrounding area of skin. These are most commonly caused due to the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, but may also be caused due to other groups of bacteria or even fungi.

Boils are often painful, tender to touch and are filled with pus. Damaging the hair follicle, boils further spread the infection into the deeper layers of the skin. So, it is quite essential to treat boils, if you happen to have one. While small boils can be easily managed at home with the help of home remedies like neem leaves and turmeric, which will be shared in this article, you must visit a doctor if the size of your boil is quite large or is extremely painful and exhibits other symptoms. There are some ways in which you can even prevent boils from erupting. You will find these in the sections ahead.

Ultrasound during pregnancy: why, when and how it is done?

Getting an ultrasound done is indeed an emotional time for the parents as this allows you to see your baby even before you can hold it in your arms. Thanks to the technology! We now have ultrasound techniques that let you see your baby’s images. A pregnancy ultrasound, also known as sonogram is a prenatal test advised to most of the expecting mothers. Ultrasound uses the high-frequency sound waves to show images of your baby, placenta and ovaries during varied times of your pregnancy. The procedure records the echoes and transforms them into pictures or videos.  This way, your doctor can keep a check of your baby’s health and growth.

You may be able to see your baby’s hands, legs and other body parts, depending upon when the ultrasound has been done. Ultrasound can also tell you if it is a boy or a girl. Although in India and in many other countries, the revelation of sex is unethical and prohibited.

You can sense the baby’s heartbeat, see him swim inside you. So, this technology has become another source of happiness to those expecting their child.

Amenorrhea

Summary

The menstrual cycle is a series of events, which occur each month during the reproductive age of a woman, which starts from puberty (12-14 years of age) and ends by around 45-50 years of age. If for any reason, the menses don’t start at the time of puberty or stop completely before the termination age (menopause), the condition is termed as amenorrhoea. Amenorrhoea can occur due to genetic or acquired causes like scar formation, the absence of a uterus or vagina, metabolic disorders, hormonal imbalance and more. Prevention might be possible for acquired conditions like Cushing’s syndrome and diabetes. Diagnosis consists of a physical examination, lab tests for hormone levels, endoscopy of the uterus, ultrasound and other imaging tests. Treatment consists of curing the underlying condition and might be difficult in the case of genetic disorders. Hormone replacement therapy is the mainstay of treatment in most cases. The outcome is good in most cases where the cause is not genetic.

Men's sexual problems and solutions

Sexual problems are pretty common among both men and women of older ages. Around 31% of men and 43% of women suffer from some kind of sexual dysfunction. It isn’t just a problem of the elderly but many younger men also suffer from it. Unfortunately, not many people are easy on talking about such problems. Any topic related to sex and sexual problems are considered taboo in some parts of the world, especially in India, “the land of Kamasutra”. The condition becomes even worse when it comes to male sexual health. Men are much more reluctant to any kind of help, this is also true when it comes to seeking help from health professionals. Social stereotypes and ideologies about masculinity have been associated with this condition.

In fact, most of the time women are considered responsible for infertility when in fact, the responsibility is shared.

According to a survey done on 304 men, occupational stress was linked to be the cause for sexual dysfunction and almost 93% of the volunteers reported some sort of sexual problem, whether occasional or otherwise. However, neither the person nor the family doctor was easy talking about it.

So what needs to be done in such a situation?

A number of things can be done to deal with such situations like spreading awareness about the male sexual health, family physicians should be more open to discussing these problems with men and social and family support could lead to an early recognition of male sexual problems.

How to reduce arm fat fast

Fat reduction from targeted body parts is probably the worst nemesis of most health enthusiasts. Depending on the individual body type, gender and genetics, a person can gain more weight in thighs, belly or arms. As easy it is to put on, it becomes a part of the stubborn fat that simply refuses to go.

Numerous exercises are suggested to tone and strengthen these muscles and we end up spending more than a fair share on commercialised products. But scientific evidence says otherwise. You mean all of that is a lie? Well, yes and no. It’s more or less a play. While targetted exercises may help in toning your muscles, they don’t necessarily burn fat in specific areas.

So what can be done to fight specific fat?

For starters, a healthy diet and lifestyle would be helpful in remedying weight issues. It is better to go for a full body exercise regimen that will gradually melt down all the extra fat from the body. Such exercises can then be coupled with toning exercises for specific muscles to obtain a well-defined body shape and muscle tone.

How to lose thigh fat: exercises and remedies

Losing extra fat from your body is probably one thing that bothers everyone concerned about looks and health. Sometimes, you may have extra fat or cellulite in your upper body like arms or abdomen, and sometimes, you may have fat in your lower body like thighs, hips or calves. Getting rid of this fat takes a lot of efforts, exercise, changes in diet and what not?

Thigh fat affects 80 to 90 per cent of women and is less common in men. This is due to the fact that women have a greater concentration of the fat-storing enzyme lipoprotein lipase in the thighs, hips and breasts, while men commonly have higher levels of this enzyme in their abdomens and backs. One needs to give attention to their fat accumulation not only for their appearance but also, because it may be a reminder of some hidden health issues.

There are many factors like genetic or hormonal causes, poor circulation, lifestyle, diet, lack of exercises or the body’s metabolism that influence the accumulation of fat in the thigh area.

People often see surgery as a go-to option to get rid of thigh fat. Women spend an endless amount of money on these medical surgeries, injections, electric currents etc. But what if we know simple home remedies to lose the thigh fat?

Here in this article, we discuss simple home remedies and some exercises that would help you lose fat from your thighs.

Vitamin K Benefits, Sources and Side Effects

Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin, which is primarily needed for the production of certain proteins that are important for blood clotting. Vitamin K derives its name from the Danish word koagulation, which means blood clotting. Of the thirteen proteins needed for the process of blood clotting, vitamin K plays a key role in the synthesis of four proteins. Individuals who are on anticoagulants or blood thinners need to be careful about maintaining their vitamin K levels. It also plays a vital role as a supplement in the treatment of diseases such as osteoporosis (weakening of bones), vascular calcification (calcium deposition in the blood vessels), osteoarthritis, and cancer.

Home remedies to purify blood

Blood is one of the most crucial tissues of the human body. The network of blood vessels connects the whole body, making it work as a single unit. Not only is it responsible for transferring essential nutrients and minerals throughout the body but also it also aids in the elimination of wastes. WBCs and antibodies present in the blood protect the body from various infections and diseases. Some other functions of blood include:

  • Taking oxygen from the lungs and providing it to various parts of the body.
  • Maintaining the body temperature and electrolyte balance.
  • Transporting hormones to the target organs.

Additionally, blood platelets clot the blood and make sure that you don’t bleed out after an injury.

Lifestyle, environment and dietary influences may lead to the accumulation of certain toxic substances in the blood. These could be free radicals, heavy metals or infectious bacteria. It could also include waste products which collect in the blood due to the malfunctioning of body organs, particularly lungs, liver and kidney.

These three organs are primarily responsible for purifying and cleansing blood. While liver detoxifies blood by removing harmful chemical compounds and making them pass out with urine, kidneys filter the blood and remove excess waste. Lungs, on the other hand, aid in keeping the blood oxygenated and removing harmful gasses from the bloodstream.

Apart from this, the spleen is responsible for filtering dead RBCs and providing white blood cells to fight infections.

While certain herbs and food sources may be beneficial in improving the functions of these organs along with providing antioxidant and antimicrobial components to fight infections, a  dietary path isn’t enough for blood purification in the long term. Several exercises, yoga postures and pranayama have also been known to be excellent alternate therapies. They also help in promoting the overall body function.

In the course of this article, we’ll explore various ways, foods, methods, techniques and holistic approaches to help purify the blood.
