hi, i’ve been following you for a while but this is my first time back on the app in a long long time. I just saw your post about getting sent home from surgery, I wanted to reach out to you and let you know that you are truly not alone with your frustrations with medicine right now. i have been struggling for years with so many issues such as incredibly low ferratin, my glucose levels are off, i can’t keep my platelet level high enough and because i’m so young they refuse to help me figure out if i may have an autoimmune disease. whenever i finally get to see a doctor i’m told i just need to make a lifestyle change & to go home. I have not felt like myself in years. not only that, i’ve watched my mother go through the same thing i’m going through and come home crying because she was disregarded by yet another doctor. keep fighting, you will find help. i’m so sorry for the way you have been treated & i cannot imagine your own frustration as someone who is in the field themselves. i know it seems hopeless, but i am rooting for you <3 thank you for sharing your story so that other people feel seen as well. I truly appreciate it.
Thank you so much for reaching out. I completely understand "not feeling like myself" part. I mean I've always had chronic pain and it did limit me somewhat but I was also functioning despite it. Last two years have brought me to my knees and I can't believe it but I miss the usual chronic pain and fatigue, because this, how I am right now, is not sustainable and at this point I just want my life back. Feels like all I've done is work and sleep and gain weight, because I have no energy to do anything else. I started working out again in September and lost some weight and was thinking maybe I'm getting better and in like 3 weeks I got so much worse and the last 3 months have been absolute hell.
I went into this field to help people like me. A little selfish in a way because I used everything I can learn to help myself (lot of good it did, huh), but also to be that one doctor people come to and know their voice is heard and that the person before them will do everything to help. Medical gaslighting (for women especially) is terrible, I'm sorry they're not taking you seriously. The saddest part is that it takes either a life threatening event for them to help or 10+ years before you find someone who is willing to do the necessary work and tests and help you. I've been on both sides, I hope you find someone capable before it gets bad. If the doctor won't listen, switch doctors if you financially can or badger the first one continuously until they hear what you have to say. I wish I advocated for myself more. I wish my parents advocated for me too, because I haven't been pain free since I turned 9. Don't give up either, okay? Chronic illness girlies might be a terrible name for a club but unfortunately there's a lot of us in it. Trust your intuition and your body, you know best when something isn't right. Always trust that gut feeling. Journal symptoms with dates and severity, and if you do your labs always keep the results, form your own medical history. I'm really sorry you're going through that. I wish you didn't suffer this way. No one should be put in this position.
P.S. the lifestyle change they talk about...can hold some merrit but root cause won't be fixed by simply losing some weight and fixing your diet. I've tried. The fact they barely understand the concept of "my diet isn't great because I'm too tired to cook, I'm in pain and working out makes it worse or the I'm gaining weight because of my symptoms that you refuse to acknowledge and treat". Most of us tend to gain weight because of the chronic issues that go unresolved for so long. Hearing "lose weight" pisses me off because my symptoms were there when I was skinny too, it makes no difference. Will it help somewhat? Maybe. But to blame weight and lifestyle choices and treat that as a cure-all is frankly lazy and an insult to our lived experience.

life udpate
hello everybody! i am still around and i am still playing the sims, i just don't have any edited pictures to post. i am still deep in the trenches of organizing my cc, which is a lifelong battle, i guess.
i go by any pronouns now. accepting my autism has also led me to accepting that i'm pretty much agender. i'm still a huge feminist, but i don't care about how the world perceives me/i don't put a lot of effort into perceiving myself. "any pronouns, agender" is the best way i've come up with to express this.
my med change process ended up being completely moot, i'm just back on the original medication. however, there is an update regarding the fatigue that set it all off. i'm pretty sure i have lupus. i have family members that have it and two weeks ago i got a bunch of autoimmune symptoms at once (that i'm still experiencing). i also have the classic butterfly rash that i've had for years. i have a doctor's appointment on wednesday to address this. they say lupus starts appearing around age 30 and i'm 27, so the timeline is right.
what does this mean? honestly, not a lot. i already work from home as an independent contractor, so my lifestyle isn't going to be that affected. if anything, getting treatment will only improve my life. my major symptoms are general fatigue, migraine headaches, and bipolar-like psychiatric symptoms, so hopefully i'll be able to address these. i also get low-grade fevers (especially when exhausted), i'm prone to rashes and hives, and this flare-up has caused joint swelling on both my wrists which is pretty miserable.
the wrist thing is the biggest issue, since all my hobbies and work involve typing or holding a pen. luckily, if it is lupus, lupus joint pain doesn't really cause any lasting damage, unlike other forms of arthritis. i've tried a bunch of stuff and nothing has taken the swelling down, so i'm hoping to get a brace from the rheumatologist on wednesday. my ankles also bother me sometimes, but that's more manageable.
my partner is amazing throughout all this and very accepting, of course. it helps that he's a veterinarian which means he has enough medical knowledge (animals also get lupus, apparently!) to help me with my symptoms.
i used to want biological children, quite badly, but then i got with my partner, and we don't have the matching biology to make a baby naturally. we started talking about adoption (in the future, like when we're near 40) and i'm fully on board with adopting, especially in brazil where we live, as the system is much better for the children. now that i'm aware of the autoimmune disease that runs in my family, i definitely don't want to have biological children. i've considered (if we can afford it) implanting my partner's eggs into my womb to carry, but i think pregnancy would be much too rough on me, much less the baby. our ideal situation would be being financially stable, established, and adopting an older sibling pair or trio. we'll see how it goes with my autoimmune disease.
anyway, back to the sims. i'm in year 4 week 5 of stilla and everything is still hanging on. i fully plan on playing it through to the end and updating all my challenges. it gives me joy. and now that i've accepted my life might be a little more slow-paced, that's okay.

Perimenopause And IVF With Donor Egg – IVF After Menopause Success Rate
Tumblr media
Before embarking on the main topic of perimenopause and IVF with donor egg, we have to understand perimenopause, and how IVF is possible for infertility couples or families. Fertility may be impacted by the hormonal changes that frequently accompany the perimenopause, the transitional period preceding menopause. Perimenopausal women may have problems like erratic ovulation, poorer egg quality, and decreased ovarian reserve. For women in this stage who want to become pregnant, IVF with donor eggs offers a viable option.
IVF using donor eggs involves fertilizing healthy eggs from a younger donor with sperm from the donor or spouse and transferring the resulting embryos into the woman’s uterus. Even for women in their late 40s or early 50s, the odds of a healthy pregnancy greatly increase because donor eggs are usually of excellent quality. Hormonal therapy prepares the uterus for implantation. 
This method, which is generally regarded as safe and successful, gives women whose fertility has been affected by perimenopause hope. It is a feasible alternative for becoming a parent later in life because it also helps avoid the age-related drop in egg quality. To assess their health and go over individualized treatment regimens, women considering this route should speak with fertility specialists.
What Is The Success Rate Of IVF After Perimenopuae For Pregnancy?
Tumblr media
Perimenopuae Pregnancy in India
The utilization of donor eggs, the woman’s general health, and the standard of medical treatment are some of the variables that affect the success rate of IVF following perimenopause. Perimenopausal women frequently have low ovarian reserves and low-quality eggs, which reduces the success of both natural conception and IVF using their eggs. The success rate rises dramatically when donor eggs are utilized, though, and is frequently on par with younger women having IVF.
Depending on the clinic and other specific conditions, the success rate for getting pregnant with donor eggs might vary from 50% to 70% per cycle. Utilizing superior donor eggs from younger women aids in overcoming the reduction in fertility that comes with aging. Furthermore, by guaranteeing the selection of viable embryos, medical technology developments like preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) might increase the chance of a healthy pregnancy.
Before beginning the treatment, women must have comprehensive medical tests to determine uterine health and handle any underlying issues, even though the prospects of success with donor eggs are good. Women can increase their chances of success and make well-informed decisions by speaking with a qualified fertility professional.
What Are The Causes Of Perimenopause Before Fertility Treatment Or Pregnancy?
Tumblr media
Causes Of Perimenopause
Numerous causes might cause perimenopause, the period of transition before menopause, to occur earlier than anticipated, which can affect fertility and hopes for pregnancy. Among the frequent reasons are:
Age and Natural Decline
As people age naturally, their hormone levels and ovarian reserve gradually decrease, which frequently results in perimenopause. A lady usually starts this in her late 30s or early 40s.
The disorder known as premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) occurs when the ovaries cease to function normally before the age of forty. It may be brought on by autoimmune diseases, hereditary factors, or other unidentified causes.
Medical Treatments
Treatments that harm ovarian tissue and hasten the beginning of perimenopause include radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and ovarian surgery.
Lifestyle Factors
Poor nutrition, heavy alcohol use, and smoking can all hasten the deterioration of ovarian function.
Genetics
Women may be at risk for early perimenopause if there is a family history of early menopause or reproductive health problems.
Chronic Health Conditions
Illnesses including diabetes, autoimmune diseases, and thyroid issues can throw off the hormonal balance and cause early perimenopause.
Environmental Factors
Long-term exposure to substances that disrupt hormones and pollutants may have an impact on ovarian health.
Women can schedule reproductive procedures like IVF or egg freezing before their ovarian reserve drastically declines by identifying these factors early. To maximize reproductive possibilities and achieve optimal pregnancy outcomes, early intervention and contact with fertility specialists are essential.
What Are The Process Of IVF After Perimenopause For Successful Pregnancy?
IVF Procedure for a Successful Pregnancy After Perimenopause
To overcome the normal reduction in fertility and obtain a successful pregnancy, IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) following perimenopause requires specialist techniques. The detailed procedure is as follows:
Initial Assessment
To ascertain a patient’s suitability for IVF, a thorough assessment of their hormone levels, ovarian reserve, uterine health, and general medical history is carried out.
Donor Egg Selection (if necessary)
Donor eggs are usually used since perimenopause frequently results in a decreased ovarian reserve. These are chosen per the recipient’s genetic and physical preferences.
Endometrial Preparation
To guarantee a receptive endometrial lining, hormonal therapies like estrogen and progesterone are used to prepare the uterus for the embryo’s arrival.
Fertilization
Using cutting-edge methods like ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection), the donor eggs are fertilized in a lab with either the partner’s or the donor’s sperm.
Embryo Transfer
One or more of the developing embryos are placed inside the ready-made uterus. Accurate placement is guaranteed via ultrasound guidance.
Luteal Phase Support
Hormonal drugs are administered to promote implantation during the early stages of pregnancy following transfer.
Pregnancy Testing
To confirm pregnancy, a blood test is conducted two weeks later.
Monitoring and Care
Regular monitoring and prenatal care are crucial if pregnancy is obtained because pregnancies after perimenopause may be more problematic.
As long as their general health and uterine condition are favorable, many women can become pregnant successfully after perimenopause with the help of reproductive technology improvements and customized treatment plans.
What Happens To Eggs During Perimenopause With IVF Treatment?
A woman’s ovarian reserve, or the quantity and quality of eggs in her ovaries, drastically decreases throughout perimenopause. The efficiency of IVF procedures utilizing the woman’s eggs is impacted by this natural process. Women’s eggs frequently include chromosomal abnormalities as they get closer to menopause, which can lower their reproductive potential and raise their chance of miscarriage.
Several measures are made to overcome these issues in perimenopausal IVF treatment:
Ovarian Stimulation
To encourage the ovaries to generate more eggs, higher dosages of fertility drugs may be used. However, because of the decreased ovarian reserve, the response is usually smaller than in younger women.
Retrieval of Eggs
All viable eggs are recovered, however, the quantity and caliber might not be enough for effective fertilization and the growth of the embryo. Alternative Option: Donor eggs could be used if the retrieved eggs are not viable. Donor eggs are more likely to produce healthy embryos and fruitful pregnancies since they come from younger, healthier women.
Using the woman’s eggs during perimenopause makes IVF more difficult, however, donor egg IVF provides a very successful way to become a parent. To provide ideal conditions for embryo implantation, hormonal therapies are also utilized to prepare the uterus.
What Is The Best Treatment For Perimenopause? – Perimenopause And IVF With Donor Egg
The ideal course of treatment for perimenopause differs based on each person’s needs and symptoms. Managing symptoms like mood swings, hot flashes, irregular periods, sleep difficulties, and decreased fertility is the main objective of treatment. Typical therapies consist of:
The most successful treatment for severe perimenopausal symptoms is hormone therapy (HT). To control hormones and relieve symptoms including vaginal dryness, hot flashes, and night sweats, estrogen or a combination of estrogen and progesterone is administered.
Lifestyle Modifications
Leading a healthy lifestyle can aid in the efficient management of symptoms. For general well-being, a balanced diet high in calcium and vitamin D, regular exercise, stress-reduction strategies, and enough sleep are necessary.
Non-Hormonal Drugs
Antidepressants and hot flash medications (such as gabapentin) are examples of non-hormonal drugs that may be useful for women who are unable or unable to undergo hormone therapy.
Vaginal Estrogen
Creams, rings, or tablets containing vaginal estrogen can help relieve localized symptoms such as vaginal dryness or pain during sexual activity.
Herbal remedies and supplements
Some women utilize supplements such as evening primrose oil, soy isoflavones, or black cohosh, although their efficacy varies and they should be taken under a doctor’s supervision.
Fertility Treatment
IVF using a woman’s own or donor eggs may be an option for women attempting to conceive during perimenopause.
Women going through perimenopause should speak with a healthcare professional to choose the best course of action for them based on their lifestyle and current health.
How Can I Improve My Egg Quality In Perimenopause? – Perimenopause And IVF With Donor Egg
Tumblr media
Improve Egg Quality In Perimenopause
Women who want to increase their chances of getting pregnant must improve the quality of their eggs during perimenopause. Although the amount and quality of eggs gradually decline with age, some lifestyle changes and medical treatments can promote improved reproductive outcomes:
Eat Well
A diet high in nutrients can enhance the quality of eggs. Pay attention to foods like fruits, vegetables, nuts, and whole grains that are high in antioxidants. Incorporate good fats that promote hormonal health, such as omega-3s from fish or flaxseeds.
Keep Your Weight in Check
Being underweight or overweight might throw off your hormone balance, which is important for the development of your eggs. To maximize fertility, strive for a healthy BMI.
Make Supplements to Increase Fertility
Vitamin D, folic acid, DHEA, and coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) are frequently suggested for enhancing egg quality. Egg viability depends on mitochondrial function and cell health, which are supported by these nutrients.
Avoid Toxins
Smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, processed meals, and environmental pollutants can all have a detrimental effect on the health of eggs.
Handle Stress
Prolonged stress can throw off the hormone balance, which affects ovulation and the quality of eggs. Engage in stress-relieving practices such as mindfulness, yoga, or meditation.
Get Enough Sleep
Restful sleep promotes general health and controls hormones, particularly those linked to fertility. Try to get between 7 and 9 hours each night.
Examine Acupuncture
It is thought to enhance blood flow to the uterus and ovaries, which may promote the health of the egg.
Speak with a Fertility Specialist
If natural approaches prove inadequate, consult a fertility specialist. IVF utilizing your own or donor eggs, hormone therapy, and ovarian rejuvenation therapy are among possible treatments.
Making these adjustments early in perimenopause can increase your chances of a healthy pregnancy because improving egg quality takes time and consistency.
Who Is The Real Mother Of A Donor Egg Baby? – Best IVF Clinic In India
Tumblr media
Real Mother Of A Donor Egg Baby in India
Motherhood in donor egg scenarios can be viewed from several perspectives, including legal, gestational, and genetic. In most cases, the mother bearing the child is recognized as the biological mother, even when the genesis of a donor egg child is unique. IVF Clinic India plays a crucial role in assisting intended parents in this journey. World Fertility Services provides expert care and advanced treatments to support hopeful parents in achieving their dream of parenthood.
Gestational Motherhood
The woman who carries the child during pregnancy is often considered the true mother because she raises the infant in her womb, provides the environment for its growth, and delivers birth. This physical and emotional connection forms a deep bond.
Legal Motherhood
According to the law, the mother is usually the one named on the child’s birth certificate and the one who decides to use the donor egg for reproductive therapy. The intended parent or parents who agree to the fertilization procedure are typically legally acknowledged as the parents, while laws on legal motherhood differ from nation to nation.
Emotional Motherhood
In both practical and emotional aspects, the intended mother, who is responsible for the child’s upbringing and care after birth, assumes the role of the child’s mother. When defining motherhood, this attachment frequently takes precedence over biological ties.
Genetic Contribution
Although the genetic material is provided by the egg donor, donors are typically not considered the “real” mothers. Depending on the laws in the nation where the donation takes place, they are frequently anonymous and have neither parental nor legal rights to the kid.
In conclusion, it is generally accepted that the woman who carries gives birth to, and raises a donor egg kid is the child’s true mother. The emotional, legal, and physical commitment she makes during the parenthood process is reflected in her viewpoint.

Achalasia cardia is a rare disease in which there is difficulty in swallowing both liquids and solids and the swallowed food is prevented from passing from the esophagus to the stomach.
Cause of this disease: This occurs due to nerve damage in the esophagus, resulting in the esophagus becoming damaged, dilated, its ability to contract and expand is lost, and at the same time the LOS (gateway at the lower part of the esophagus) is narrowed and the food cannot reach the stomach. In this, food accumulates in the esophagus, sometimes coming up into the mouth and feeling bitter in the mouth. Some people mistake it for GERD.
In achalasia, swallowed food comes up from the esophagus, whereas in GERD it comes from the stomach. There is no complete cure for achalasia. Once the esophagus is damaged, the muscle can no longer function properly. However, the symptoms can usually be controlled with the help of medication, endoscopic intervention, and surgery.
Signs and symptoms of achalasia: The signs and symptoms of this disease appear gradually and over time, permanent disability occurs — 1) Inability to swallow food as if food or drink is stuck in the throat; 2) Regurgitation of food or saliva; 3) Heartburn; 4) Belching; 5) Chest pain that comes and goes; 6) Dry cough at night; 7) Pneumonia (food regurgitates into the lungs and causes infection) 8) Frequent vomiting; 9) Weight loss.
Causes of achalasia: The exact cause has not yet been determined. Researchers believe that the main cause is nerve damage in the esophagus. Some have attributed it to viral infections and autoimmunity. Others have also attributed it to hereditary birth defects or some other unknown viral infection.
Diagnosis of achalasia: This disease is often not detected or misdiagnosed in routine examinations because its signs and symptoms are similar to those of other diseases. The following tests are used to diagnose this disease— 1) Esophageal manometry: This test measures whether the esophageal muscle's ability to contract and expand rhythmically to move food from the throat to the stomach is intact; 2) Barium swallow X-ray: After the patient is given a chalky white drink, the contraction and expansion of the esophagus and the opening or narrowing of the LOS or gateway in the lower part of the esophagus are seen. 3) Endoscopy: This test shows the dilation of the esophagus, the food accumulated in the esophagus, and the tightness of the LOS or gateway in the lower part.
Treatment of achalasia: The main goal of this treatment is to widen the narrowed LOS or gateway in the lower part of the esophagus so that food and drinks can easily pass from the esophagus to the stomach without obstruction.
The appropriate treatment depends on the patient's age, physical health condition and the severity of the disease. 1) Treatment through medication: Calcium channel blockers or Nitroglycerin-like medications; 2) Treatment through endoscopy: Botulinum toxin is applied through endoscopy; The narrowed LOS is widened by inflating a balloon through endoscopy; POEM (Peroral Endoscpic Myotomy) is a small surgery through endoscopy to widen the LOS; 3) Surgical treatment: Laparoscopic surgery is performed by Heller Myotomy or Fundoplication.
Above all, through lifestyle changes — Take time, slowly, and develop the habit of chewing and swallowing food well; Drink plenty of water with meals; Make it a habit to go to bed at least 3 hours after eating; Keep the head of the bed elevated or use two pillows instead of one.
To prevent acid reflux from the stomach after balloon dilation or surgery, the following foods should be avoided — Sour fruits, tomato ketchup, chocolate, alcohol, coffee, etc.; If you can take PPI drugs along with it, you can get the desired results.

Exploring Psoriasis: Causes, Triggers, and Treatment Options Including Homeopathy
Psoriasis is one of the chronic autoimmune disorders that mainly manifests in the skin, developing red and scaly patches.

This tends to happen when the human immune system starts attacking their cells, mistakingly resembling the characteristics of cells under some infectious or diseased diseases by multiplying faster than normal speeds. The family history about suffering from the disease often poses a strong risk that they are bound to inherit such condition. 
Hyperactive Immune: An overreactive immune system can also be the main culprit by causing inflammation and the faster turnover of skin cells.
Extrinsic Factors: Externally, causes may range from stress, infections, cuts on the skin, or exposure to some medicines or chemicals. If you want to cure naturally, then you can adopt natural scalp psoriasis treatment.
Lifestyle Factors: Factors such as obesity, smoking, and alcoholism also exacerbate symptoms.

Recognizing and Treating Gum Infections: When to Seek Help
Gum infections, often overlooked in the realm of oral health, can lead to significant complications if not addressed promptly. Understanding the signs and symptoms of these infections is crucial for maintaining not only dental health but overall well-being. This article delves into the nuances of gum infections, exploring their causes, symptoms, treatment options, and the vital moments when professional help is imperative.
Tumblr media
Understanding Gum Infections: Causes and Risk Factors
Gum infection treatment, primarily rooted in periodontal disease, arise when bacteria invade the gum tissue, leading to inflammation and discomfort. The most common form, gingivitis, often presents as redness and swelling of the gums, frequently accompanied by bleeding during brushing or flossing. The primary culprit behind this condition is plaque, a sticky film of bacteria that forms on teeth. When not removed through regular dental hygiene practices, plaque hardens into tartar, further irritating the gums.
Several factors can increase the risk of developing gum infections. Poor oral hygiene is the most obvious, but lifestyle choices such as smoking and excessive alcohol consumption can exacerbate the problem. Additionally, certain medical conditions, including diabetes and autoimmune disorders, can compromise the body’s ability to fight infections, making individuals more susceptible to gum disease. Hormonal changes during pregnancy or menopause also play a role, as fluctuations in hormones can affect gum health.
Recognising the early signs of gum infections is vital. Symptoms such as persistent bad breath, gum swelling, and discomfort when chewing can indicate the presence of an infection. If left untreated, these mild symptoms can escalate into more severe issues, including periodontal disease, which may result in tooth loss. Hence, understanding the underlying causes is the first step towards prevention and treatment.
Identifying Symptoms: When to Be Concerned
While gum infections may start with subtle signs, they can quickly progress into more serious conditions if not addressed. Early symptoms often include swollen, tender gums that may bleed during regular brushing. It is essential to note that not all gum infections present with pain; some individuals may experience no discomfort at all, which can lead to a false sense of security.
As the infection worsens, symptoms may escalate to include persistent bad breath, a change in bite, and pus between the teeth and gums. These indicators signify that the infection may have advanced, necessitating immediate attention. One should also be alert to systemic symptoms such as fever or swollen lymph nodes, which can indicate that the infection is spreading and requires urgent medical intervention.
Regular dental check-ups are paramount in catching these issues early. Dental professionals can identify signs of gum disease through routine cleanings and examinations, even before symptoms become apparent to the patient. For those who experience any of the aforementioned symptoms, it is advisable to schedule an appointment with a dental professional to assess the condition and receive appropriate guidance.
Treatment Options: From Home Remedies to Professional Help
When it comes to treating gum infections, the approach can vary significantly depending on the severity of the condition. For mild cases, enhancing oral hygiene practices can be remarkably effective. Regular brushing with fluoride toothpaste, coupled with daily flossing, can help eliminate plaque build-up and reduce inflammation. Additionally, rinsing with an antibacterial mouthwash may provide extra protection against bacteria.
However, as the severity of the infection increases, professional dental treatment becomes crucial. A dentist may recommend scaling and root planing, a deep cleaning procedure aimed at removing tartar from below the gum line. This process not only helps remove the bacteria causing the infection but also promotes gum reattachment to the teeth. In more severe cases, antibiotic treatment may be necessary. Dentists can prescribe topical or oral antibiotics to help control the infection and reduce inflammation.
In instances where the infection has led to abscess formation, more aggressive interventions may be required. This could involve draining the abscess to alleviate pressure and pain, alongside a course of antibiotics. It is important to adhere to the prescribed treatment plan and attend follow-up appointments to ensure the infection is fully resolved.
For those who prefer natural remedies, certain options may offer some relief. Saltwater rinses can help soothe inflamed gums, while warm tea bags may provide a comforting compress for swollen areas. However, these should not replace professional dental care, especially in the case of advanced infections.
When to Seek Help: The Importance of Timeliness
Knowing when to seek professional help is crucial in managing gum infections effectively. If symptoms persist for more than a few days or worsen despite improved oral hygiene practices, it is time to consult a dental professional. Ignoring the signs can lead to more severe complications, including chronic gum disease or systemic infections that could affect other areas of health.
Furthermore, individuals with pre-existing health conditions, such as diabetes or heart disease, should be particularly vigilant. Gum infections have been linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular problems, underscoring the need for timely intervention. The connection between oral health and overall health is becoming increasingly recognised, making it essential to address any signs of gum disease promptly.
Regular dental visits are also vital in preventing gum infections. Most dental professionals recommend biannual check-ups, where they can monitor gum health and catch potential issues early. Investing time in preventative care not only saves money in the long run but also safeguards overall health.
In summary, gum infections are a common yet often underestimated issue that can lead to severe health complications. Recognising the signs, understanding the causes, and knowing when to seek help are crucial steps in managing oral health effectively. By prioritising dental hygiene and remaining vigilant about symptoms, individuals can take proactive measures to prevent gum infections and maintain a healthy smile.

Celine Dion's story
I just watched the documentary, I am Celine Dion on Prime. It showed all about her life since she had to quit showbiz because she got diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome.
Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS) is an autoimmune and neurological disorder that can make the muscles in the torso and limbs alternate between rigidity and spasms. The cause of this extremely rare disease is still unknown.
I am always saying that money doesn't bring happiness and it doesn't bring health as well. This incredible superstar who had everything, now with all her money, can not do anything to fix this. We never know when life will throw you a curveball, when it will all come crashing down. It's a crap shoot. You can do all the right things, and still, it can happen.
This documentary shows how she is dealing with this life depilation disease, and it's so sad to see her now. After so many years, seeing her so vibrant. But she is a fighter, and she is not ready to give up. She wanted us to see this in this documentary. She said she would continue to fight and try to beat this. She has had such determination throughout her life, and this is no different. She has shown us what determination looks like and that she is and always will be a fighter. When she stepped out on the stage and did such an amazing performance at this summers Olympic games in Paris, we all saw that.
So today, my friends, I am here to say you never know what will happen. You never know how life will change. You must just keep going, keep believing, and keep being determined. You have to be grateful each and every day for your health and for your life because there's always someone out there praying for what you have. Don't ever forget that it could all change in a moment, just like it did for Celine Dion.

Everything One Needs To Know About Hair Fall
Every hair follicle's hair growth cycle concludes with hair fall. It usually goes unnoticed when hair growth and shedding are balanced. However, it becomes an aesthetic concern when hair loss is extensive and sudden, without accompanying hair growth. Such difficulties affect anybody at some time and may intensify with age. It may be transient or permanent. Those suffering from hair loss and wish to seek treatment can find the best hair fall treatment in South Delhi. We'll get into more detail later, but first, let's review some basic information on hair loss and its causes.
Tumblr media
What are the Signs and Symptoms of Hair Fall/Loss?
Tumblr media
The indications and symptoms of hair fall or loss differ between children, men, and women. 
Anyone who has combed their hair may discover many strands in the shower drain, pillow cover, or hairbrush. These are all indicators of significant hair loss.
When males experience significant hair loss, they may see thinning hair on their heads, a receding hairline, or baldness in a horseshoe pattern. 
Women may present with generalized hair thinning or loss, particularly at the crown of their heads. 
Among children and young adults, the signs of hair loss include rapid falling out of a patch of hair or frequent hair shedding following certain medications, medical conditions, stress, significant weight loss, and many more. 
What are the Causes of Hair Fall?
Tumblr media
Hair loss can occur owing to a variety of factors, including:
Family History: Men and women with a family history of hair loss are more prone to suffer from androgenetic alopecia, also known as pattern baldness, an inherited disorder.
Hormonal Changes: Variations in the levels of male and female sex hormones in an individual during reproductive health events such as pregnancy, puberty, or menopause can all cause hair loss. Prolonged usage of oral birth control tablets may cause hair loss due to a decrease in estrogen and an increase in androgen hormone levels. Thyroid issues can also produce hormone fluctuations, which impact hair follicle growth.
Stress: When a person is physically or emotionally stressed, their cortisol levels rise. Excess cortisol causes abrupt, patchy hair loss, a disorder known as alopecia areata.
Nutritional deficiencies occur when people do not consume a balanced diet on a daily basis. If their diet is weak in key vitamins, minerals, and proteins, their hair will grow poorly, and existing hair strands may fall out quickly.
Poor Environmental Conditions: Daily exposure to contaminants in the environment can cause hair breakage and loss.
Scalp Infection or Trauma: A head injury or a ringworm infection on the scalp can cause hair loss.
Some Medical Treatments: Treatments for cancer, such as radiation therapy or chemotherapy, can cause temporary hair loss.     
Underlying Medical Illnesses: Medical conditions, such as arthritis, autoimmune diseases, and cardiac problems, might increase the likelihood of hair loss.
Medications—Certain medications, such as mood stabilizers, antidepressants, antifungals, acne medications, beta-blockers, cholesterol-lowering pharmaceuticals, thyroid medications, and hormone-containing therapies, can cause excessive hair loss.
Traction Alopecia: This hair loss is caused by tight hairstyles that pull the hair, causing it to split and come free.
Heat Hairstyling or Chemical-based Hair Treatments: Some people often style their hair with hair dryers or straightening equipment. Others may have chemicals used to dye their hair. If they are done frequently or excessively, they can cause hair loss.    
Poor Hair Care Routine—Many people have poor lifestyles and are unwilling to take good care of their hair. They may utilize hair care products that weaken and damage hair follicles, leading to hair loss.
What are the Ways to Treat Hair Fall?
Tumblr media
DermoRita Skin Clinic, an advanced skin and hair clinic, provides innovative, effective, and cutting-edge treatments under expert supervision to properly control hair fall or hair loss difficulties. The doctor recommends the following top hair fall treatments:
PRP Hair Therapy- Platelet plasma, or PRP, is a blood component that is extracted by centrifugation from the patient's blood. It contains natural growth hormones and vital proteins, which are said to help mend bodily tissues. When a PRP solution is created and injected into areas displaying signs of hair loss, it can stimulate hair follicles to generate healthy hair and even assist in protecting the health of existing hair. 
To achieve the best effects with this therapy, a person would need many PRP treatment sessions spaced out over a few weeks, followed by one monthly session to maintain new hair development.
Mesotherapy for Hair- This treatment targets the factors involved in natural hair growth. It involves injecting a combination of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, antioxidants, vital amino acids, botanical extracts, and some hair growth-promoting drugs into the scalp's mesoderm at the hair loss region. Hair mesotherapy can improve blood circulation to the scalp, boost cell metabolism, and stimulate hair growth from existing follicles.
Dermaroller—There is some evidence that hair loss sufferers can benefit from using dermarollers. Dermarollers are medical devices with numerous microneedles on their surfaces. They are rolled over the area of hair loss or loss to produce several skin pricks at once. They promote healthy hair development by boosting the blood supply to the scalp.

10 Medical Conditions That Impact Women More Than Men
Being a woman comes with so many blessings. Our bodies can do unique and amazing things — like growing life. But if you’re a woman, you’re also at greater risk for a number of diseases and conditions that are less common in men. We’re here to spread awareness about 12 of them, what they are and where to find help.
Anxiety
Women are twice as likely as men to be diagnosed with an anxiety disorder in their lifetime. While it’s normal for all of us to worry at times, an anxiety disorder is constant, severe and negatively impacts day-to-day living. The five most common anxiety disorders are generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), panic disorder (PD) and social anxiety disorder (SAD). Prioritize taking care of your mental health.
Autoimmune Diseases
There are more than 80 autoimmune diseases, and more than 75% of patients who have them are women. Autoimmune illnesses occur when the body’s immune system goes into overdrive and mistakenly attacks its own healthy cells. A few of the most common autoimmune diseases are lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, celiac disease, Type 1 diabetes and multiple sclerosis. Eating well is key to staying well if you have an autoimmune disease.
Breast Cancer
Breast cancer in men is a possibility, but it’s 100 times more common in women. The average risk of a woman developing breast cancer in her lifetime is about 12%. You can reduce your risk by living a healthy lifestyle — eating a balanced diet, choosing not to smoke, limiting alcohol intake and staying active.
Broken Heart Syndrome
Broken heart syndrome is a temporary heart condition that mimics a heart attack. It’s often triggered by stressful situations, extreme emotions, surgery or a serious physical injury. The stress is usually sudden and acute, emotional or physical, and quickly weakens the heart muscle from the overwhelming amount of adrenaline produced in response. According to the American Heart Association, broken heart syndrome is more common in women than in men.
Depression
Like anxiety, which is often comorbid with depression, women are also twice as likely as men to have depression. Depression can be caused and influenced by biological factors like fluctuating female hormones during the menstrual cycle, pregnancy, the Pospartum period and menopause. Environmental factors like stress, pain, medical problems and level of family and social support also come into play.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a condition that occurs when digestive complaints such as cramping, diarrhea, constipation and bloating last for three months or more. It’s more common in women, and their symptoms tend to worsen at the start of each menstrual period.
Migraines
Migraines are severe, sometimes chronic headaches. They can cause nausea, vomiting, light and sound sensitivity and vision changes. They affect more than 30 million Americans, but women are three times more likely than man to get migraines. They could be triggered by hormone changes.
Osteoporosis
In osteoporosis, the bones become weak and more likely to break. Of the ten million Americans estimated to have osteoporosis, 80% of them are women. The older you are, the higher your risk gets when menopause sets in. Estrogen levels drop and bone loss increases as a result. To slow bone loss, get plenty of vitamin D, calcium and exercise.
Stroke
Strokes block the blood flow to the brain and kill more women than men. While risk factors like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, smoking and family medical history apply to everyone, women have some unique risk factors for stroke. They are pregnancy, taking birth control pills, using hormone replacement therapy and having frequent migraines.
Urinary Tract Infections
Women have a higher rate of UTIs than men. Experts believe that because women have shorter urethras, they’re more prone to bacterial transmissions in the genital area.
Comprehensive, Compassionate Women’s Care for Every Need
From annual wellness visits to female primary care to get women health care services and finding solutions for your most sensitive health concerns. Whatever your age and stage of life, and however complex your medical condition, we’re here to help you feel whole.

A Few Lesser Known Types of Arthritis
Tumblr media
Arthritis is a general term used to refer to a group of conditions and diseases defined by joint pain, stiffness, swelling, and discomfort. Arthritis symptoms can range from mild to debilitating. In fact, arthritis is the leading cause of disability in the United States. Symptoms may be acute and pass in a few days, while chronic arthritis persists for months or years at a time, in some cases creating permanent changes to the joints and other parts of the body.
When used as an umbrella term, arthritis is one of the most common health conditions in America. About 53.2 million individuals, or nearly one out of six citizens, live with some type of arthritis. The condition’s annual economic impact surpasses $300 billion. Individuals may be familiar with some of the more well-known examples of arthritis, including osteoarthritis, a condition affecting roughly 32.5 million people in America. That said, there are more than 100 types of arthritis.
There are about 16,000 new cases of lupus each year, contributing to the estimated 1.5 million Americans living with the autoimmune disease. Some people living with lupus develop lupus arthritis, a condition comparable to rheumatoid arthritis, though it is generally less severe. Still, it is not uncommon for individuals living with lupus arthritis to experience bone and joint misalignments, especially in the fingers.
Psoriatic arthritis is a condition combining symptoms of arthritis and skin rashes associated with psoriasis, a chronic skin and nail disease. As is the case with lupus arthritis, individuals who do not seek medical treatments and lifestyle changes for psoriatic arthritis can experience permanent joint deformities, usually in the fingers. As many as 8 million Americans live with psoriasis, though only about 1.5 million have developed psoriatic arthritis.
Many types of arthritis occur in tandem with or as a result of another condition impacting the body. Enteropathic arthritis, for instance, is a form of arthritis stemming from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Crohn's arthritis, meanwhile, only affects individuals living with Crohn’s disease. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 2.39 million Americans were living with IBD in 2020, along with just over 1 million Americans living with Crohn’s disease, though not all of these people had developed arthritis.
Many forms of arthritis share similar symptoms, especially when it comes to joint stiffness and swelling in the fingers. However, arthritis can impact joints throughout the body. Reactive arthritis is more associated with inflammation of joints throughout the knees, feet, ankles, and toes, as well as the hips. While the causes behind arthritic conditions are not always known, reactive arthritis is typically linked to infections, particularly food poisoning and sexually transmitted diseases. Between 600,000 and 900,000 Americans live with ulcerative colitis arthritis, an inflammatory bowel disease similar to Crohn’s that can also lead to an arthritic condition, aptly named ulcerative colitis arthritis.
Finally, undifferentiated inflammatory arthritis, or simply undifferentiated arthritis, describes early-onset arthritis caused by a disease not yet known to the medical staff tasked with treatment. From 41 to 149 adults per 100,000 live with the symptoms of undifferentiated inflammatory arthritis. More common examples include inflammatory arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. There are also many conditions similar to arthritis, such as gout and ankylosing spondylitis.

Caring for Women's Hearts - A Cardiologist's Perspective by Richard Zelman MD
Caring for Women's Hearts: A Cardiologist's Perspective
The intricate balance of women's heart health is one that deserves careful attention and thoughtful medical intervention. Accumulating research, pioneered by experts like Dr. Richard Zelman MD, has illuminated the importance of a more nuanced understanding of cardiovascular disease in women. The unique risk factors women face, such as hormonal changes across the lifecycle, pregnancy-related complications, and certain autoimmune conditions, significantly influence their heart health.
Furthermore, symptoms of heart disease in women can be distinctly different from those in men, often leading to delayed diagnosis and treatment. As we delve deeper into the complexities of cardiovascular wellness in women, we will also explore proactive strategies for promoting heart health. These preventive strategies range from lifestyle modifications like diet and exercise, to regular screenings for early detection of potential risks. Recognize the importance of tailored approaches – because when it comes to heart health, one size does not fit all.
Understanding the Gender Divide in Heart Health
Richard Zelman MD emphasizes that the pervasive recognition of cardiovascular disease is contrasted by a false perception that its impact is largely confined to the male demographic. This erroneous belief carries the potential risk of leading to an underdiagnoses and inadequate treatment of heart-related complications in women. The truth of the matter is heart disease does not show partiality towards gender. However, it's important to note that its manifestation varies significantly between women and men, impacting each demographic in unique ways. The subtle nuances in symptoms and the progression of the disease necessitate a careful, individualized approach to diagnosis and treatment. While traditional risk factors like smoking, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol apply to both genders, there are specific risk factors that women should be aware of:
Hormonal Changes: Women's hormonal fluctuations, such as those during pregnancy and menopause, can influence their heart health. Conditions like gestational diabetes and preeclampsia can increase the risk of heart disease later in life.
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): PCOS is a common endocrine disorder among women, characterized by irregular periods and elevated androgen levels. It has been associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease due to insulin resistance and obesity.
Autoimmune Diseases: Conditions like lupus and rheumatoid arthritis are more common in women and can have adverse effects on the heart.
Mental Health: Women's emotional well-being can also impact their heart health. Chronic stress, depression, and anxiety can lead to unhealthy lifestyle choices and increase the risk of heart disease.
Menopause: The hormonal changes during menopause can lead to changes in cholesterol levels and increased risk of heart disease. Hormone replacement therapy should be carefully considered, as it may have both benefits and risks.
Recognizing Gender-Specific Symptoms
The challenge lies in the fact that the symptoms in women are often subtle and varied compared to those in men. This discrepancy necessitates a greater degree of vigilance from both healthcare providers and women themselves. Understanding these nuanced differences in symptoms can lead to a more accurate diagnosis more effective treatment strategies, further highlighting the importance of expertise and experience in the field of cardiovascular medicine. Richard Zelman MD's vast experience in this area serves as a beacon, guiding us towards better patient care and outcomes in cardiac health.
Chest Pain: While chest pain is a common symptom in both genders, women may experience atypical chest pain that is less severe or not localized. It can be mistaken for indigestion or muscle pain.
Shortness of Breath: Women are more likely to report shortness of breath, fatigue, or weakness as their primary symptoms. These symptoms may occur even without chest discomfort.
Nausea or Vomiting: Unexplained nausea or vomiting can be a warning sign of a heart attack in women.
Pain in Other Areas: Pain in the neck, jaw, shoulder, back, or abdomen may be a sign of heart disease in women.
Cold Sweats: Profuse sweating, often described as "cold sweats," can accompany a heart attack in women.
Empowering Women with Knowledge
Richard Zelman MD, emphasizes the importance of educating women about their distinct risk factors and heart disease symptoms, asserting that this is a key strategy in elevating their cardiovascular health. He believes that women should not only be aware, but also be proactive about their heart health.
Regular Check-ups: Routine check-ups with a healthcare provider are essential to monitor blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and overall heart health. Women should discuss their family history and any specific concerns related to women's health.
Lifestyle Modifications: Adopting a heart-healthy lifestyle is the foundation of prevention. This includes a balanced diet, regular exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, and quitting smoking if applicable.
Stress Management: Women should prioritize stress management techniques such as mindfulness, meditation, or counseling to reduce the negative impact of chronic stress on their hearts.
Medication Adherence: If prescribed medications, women should adhere to their treatment plans and follow up with their healthcare providers to monitor their progress.
Awareness of Menopausal Changes: Women approaching menopause should be aware of the potential impact on their heart health and discuss hormone replacement therapy options with their healthcare providers.
As a cardiologist, he firmly believes in the power of collaboration and research to advance the field of women's heart health. Clinical studies focusing on gender-specific risk factors, symptoms, and treatment strategies are crucial in providing evidence-based care. Healthcare professionals, researchers, and policymakers must work together to bridge the gender gap in heart disease awareness, prevention, and treatment.  
Dr. Richard Zelman MD stresses that caring for women's hearts requires a multifaceted approach that addresses gender-specific risk factors, recognizes atypical symptoms, and empowers women with knowledge. Heart disease is a significant threat to women's health, and we must break down the misconceptions surrounding gender and cardiovascular health. By fostering awareness, advocating for tailored care, and promoting research, we can make strides in ensuring that women receive the specialized attention they need to protect their hearts and lead long, healthy lives.
