Vaginal Dryness

Vaginal dryness, or atrophic vaginitis, is an irritation of the vagina caused by a thinning and shrinking of the vaginal tissues and decreased lubrication of the vaginal walls.

Symptoms of Vaginal Dryness

• Vaginal soreness (may also have itching or burning sensation)
• Annoying and painful intercourse
• Frequent urination and urinary urgency
• Light bleeding after intercourse

What Causes Vaginal Dryness?

Decreased estrogen is the most common cause, which is why vaginal dryness most frequently affects postmenopausal women.

-  Surgical removal of the ovaries

-  Radiation or chemotherapy treatment for cancer can cause decreases in estrogen and thus can cause vaginal dryness.

-  Anti-estrogen medications used to treat uterine fibroids or endometriosis

-   Allergy and cold medications and certain antidepressants

-   Douching

 In some cases vaginal dryness is also caused by a lack or loss of estrogen following childbirth (which can occur if the mother is breastfeeding).

-          Irritation of the vagina caused by tampons, toilet tissue, and contraceptives also can lead to dryness, and in some instances latex condoms can cause an allergic reaction, which can lead to a drying of the vaginal tissue. Smoking can also cause vaginal dryness.

-          Lack of enough foreplay before sexual intercourse

For some women, dryness is experienced as decreased vaginal secretions prior to intercourse. However, in this case the cause is more often related to a man’s inability to fully arouse the woman sufficiently during foreplay, which normally results in natural self-lubrication of the vagina, or from his unwillingness to wait for his partner’s full arousal prior to intercourse.

What If You Do Nothing?

Repeated vaginal dryness is likely to continue until you pinpoint the cause of the problem and resolve it either with the home remedies suggested here or after having it diagnosed and treated by a physician.

Home Remedies for Vaginal Dryness

• Slow down and savor the moment. If dryness is caused by rushed lovemaking, slow down and spend more time with foreplay, which can help promote vaginal secretions.
• Lubricate. If you often have pain during sexual intercourse, even with adequate foreplay, be sure to use a vaginal lubricant prior to sex. You can also have your partner use a lubricated condom.

Vaginal Moisturizers

A number of over-the-counter moisturizing creams and lotions (including Astroglide, Lubrin, Replens, and K-Y Jelly) are effective in relieving vaginal dryness and accompanying discomfort. These moisturizers work immediately to relieve dryness.

Ordinary moisturizing lotions can also be used for vaginal dryness. But avoid petroleum-based products, which can break down condoms, foster infections, and interfere with natural lubricants.

Prevention

• Avoid douching and using spermicidal foams, creams, or gels. These can adversely affect the vaginal tissue and lead to drying.

• Regular sexual activity may help. This improves blood circulation in the vagina, which helps counter dryness

AIDS/HIV

Q- What is AIDS/HIV and what are its symptoms? ?

Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a condition that weakens the immune system. It results from contracting the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) which is detected through a blood test. Most people who contract HIV see a progression to AIDS symptoms within 10-15 years of initial infection, although symptoms can occur earlier. HIV causes a broad spectrum of clinical problems. Within a few weeks of infection, some people may experience flu-like symptoms, including fever, general sickness and poor energy, rash, joint pain, and swelling of the lymph nodes. However these symptoms usually disappear quickly and an infected person can remain without symptoms for a long period of time. The onset of AIDS itself is when an HIV-positive patient’s immune system is severely damaged and loses its ability to fight infections. The signs of these infections may include: a fever higher than 100 F for several weeks, dry cough, chronic diarrhea, white spots or unusual lesions on the tongue or in the mouth, blurred and distorted vision, persistent fatigue and skin infections.

Q- How do I avoid getting AIDS/HIV? ?

The only way to prevent AIDS is to avoid becoming infected with HIV. HIV is spread most often by having unprotected sex with an infected partner. The virus enters the body through the vagina, vulva, penis, rectum, or mouth during sex. HIV is also spread through contact with infected blood. This can occur while sharing needles during intravenous drug use and through other direct blood-to-blood contact such as receiving infected blood during a blood transfusion, though this is highly unlikely in many countries now due to thorough screening of donated blood. Mothers can also spread the virus to their babies during pregnancy, childbirth, or breast-feeding.

Q- What can I do to help me live with AIDS/HIV? ?

There is no cure for AIDS but certain drugs seem to slow the progression of the disease. In addition, various nutritional factors may be helpful in supporting the immune system. Because of the complicated nature of this disorder, medical supervision is strongly recommended with regard to dietary changes and nutritional supplements. Some healthy things you can do are: • Good nutrition is vital for people with HIV. • Add shiitake, reishi, and maitake mushrooms or supplements to your diet. • Consume plenty of green drinks from leafy greens. • Take appropriate dietary supplements and supplementary fiber. • Exercise and reduce lifestyle stress. • Drink at least two liters of water per day. • Eliminate junk food,avoid alcohol, cigarettes, and Echinacea. • Limit your intake of soybeans and soy products, which contain enzyme-inhibitors. • Always use a condom and practice food safety and drink clean water.

Allergies

Q- What are allergies and what causes them? ?

An allergic reaction occurs when the body’s immune system overreacts to normally harmless substances (allergens), and the white blood cells begin to attack them as invaders. Almost any substance can act as an allergen. The most common allergy triggers include: pollen, dust mites, molds, animal dander, latex, foods, and insect venom. Foods known to cause allergies are: wheat, sugars (fructose and sucrose), soybeans, shellfish, pineapples, onions, dairy foods (cheese and milk), citrus fruits, chocolate, bee pollen, and alcoholic drinks (beer and wine). The symptoms of allergies include: cold-like symptoms (nasal congestion, runny eyes, itching eyes, itching ears, itching throat), shortness of breath, headache, swelling of mouth and/or throat, diarrhea, intestinal discomfort, inflammation, and hives. The most severe allergic reaction, known as anaphylaxis, can lead to low blood pressure, breathing difficulties, shock, and loss of consciousness, all of which can be fatal.

Q- What can I do to relieve my allergy symptoms? ?

Severe allergic reactions require medication and immediate medical help, but for mild allergies here are some healthy things you can do: • Keep rooms free of dust and use a free-standing air filter. • If using an air conditioner in your room, use appropriate filters to circulate pure air in the room. • Use mold-proof paint on walls and do not carpet bathrooms or other damp rooms. • Reduce mold by removing houseplants, by frequently cleaning shower curtains, bathroom windows, damp walls, areas with dry rot and indoor trash cans with mix of chlorine and bleach. • Use a dehumidifier to reduce the humidity in your home to 50% or less. • Do not smoke, and avoid second-hand smoke. • Shower or bathe before bedtime to wash off pollen and other allergens in your hair and on skin. • Keep pets out of the house to avoid pet dander. • Avoid excessive stress and learn healthy techniques for dealing with stressors. • Rotate foods to help detect a food allergy. • Increase onions, garlic, and citrus fruits for Quercetin, a natural antihistamine. • Drink plenty of water and fruit juices. • Gargle with one cup of warm water mixed with 1 teaspoon of non-iodized salt to relieve symptoms.

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory condition affecting the respiratory system.  It involves spasms of the bronchial tubes, coughing, and excessive excretion of thick mucus in the lungs.  An attack can last for a few minutes or several hours and may be caused by a number of triggers such as animals, plants, dust, pollutants, food allergies, and exercise. In general, asthma begins in childhood and clears up or becomes less severe by the age of 21. However, asthma can develop at any age and is most common among adults with allergies or a genetic tendency towards a supersensitive immune system. People with asthma have symptoms when the airways are narrowed, swollen, or filled with mucus. Common symptoms of asthma include coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, chest pain, difficulty speaking and loud, fast breathing. Mild asthma episodes are generally more common.

Cancer

Q- What is cancer and what are its warning signs??

Cancer is the uncontrolled growth of cells in the body. Cancer cells invade and destroy the tissue around them, forming a hard lump or tumor. They can also break away from this malignant tumor and enter the bloodstream or lymphatic system, which can carry them throughout the body, causing new tumors to form in other organs. The seven classic warning signs of cancer can be remembered by using the acronym CAUTION: •    Change in bowel or bladder habits •    A sore that fails to heal •    Unusual bleeding or discharge •    Thickening or lump in the breast or elsewhere •    Indigestion or difficulty swallowing •    Obvious change in a wart or mole •    Nagging cough or hoarseness Cancer is usually treated with surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy.
