Pregnancy
How To Solve Infertility
To solve the infertility must be borne in mind three major points:
- Infertility is a couple and usually both men and women have some abnormality that impedes achieving pregnancy
- Infertility is not a disease but a consequence of one or more diseases
- If not diagnosed that causes infertility, it becomes incurable
Normally a couple that want to have children achieve pregnancy within six months if not planned and if man and wife are healthy.
In woman there are times when pregnancy is possible and times when it is not possible. The period of greatest fertility is during the day they are expected to occur ovulation and 3 days before and after. We must add a few additional days under options, but which can also happen because the pregnancy healthy sperm can live up to 72 hours in the female genital tract.
Achieving Pregnancy
- Usually the pregnancy is achieved easily in a couple heals before 6 months. Increase the likelihood of success in having sex on ovulation or close to it as shown in the chart above.Since not all women have the same cycles, it is assumed that the day of ovulation for the cycle time divided by 2. For example, for a 28-day cycle, ovulation is assumed for 14 days. For a cycle of 26 days, it is assumed for 13 days, and so on.Additionally, during the most fertile women produce much of ferohormonas (hormones of sexual attraction) so men feel more attracted. Also, the basal temperature of women increases ovulation and the occurrence of cervical mucus becomes filante (Mucous) 3 or 4 days before ovulation.
- If pregnancy is not achieved before one years there will changes in safety that prevents pregnancy.
- Usually infertile couples in both men and women have problems that hinder their fertility and to diagnose and treat such cases are increasing the chances of success. But as time goes on undiagnosed causes these become incurable or very difficult to treat and this is where the problem began to worsen in the absence of a proper diagnosis.
- The review is ideal for infertility Syscan including valuation of the couple. The earlier is practiced, the better chance of achieving pregnancy.
Failure to follow these guidelines makes the infertile couple is subjected to extreme treatment, dangerous and expensive, and without any success.
Abstract:
To achieve pregnancy is advisable to have sex near the ovulatory period that corresponds to the average mid-cycle.
If 6 months have not achieved pregnancy should go to their trusted physician who ordered a pelvic ultrasound (gynecological) and a spermogram and possibly some other tests.
If the tests do not show any problems and before a year is not achieved the pregnancy, the couple must practice a review of higher sensitivity and accuracy Syscan called.
All treatments should be avoided to have a diagnosis as possible, both for men and for women, and avoid any treatment that does not correspond to an accurate diagnosis.
Pregnancy And Chiropractic
Pregnancy is a very nice and exciting, which is full of both physical and physiological changes. A consequence of these changes, such as weight gain and hormonal changes, among others, many women suffer from back pain at some point during pregnancy. Back pain is because as the baby grows in size and weight, is affecting the 3 natural curvatures of the spine.
As a result we will see a change in position, since the body’s center of gravity is altered as it will bear most of the weight to the front. Due to this change, the abdominal muscles are stretched, the natural curvature of the body are altered and this puts pressure on the joints of the spine and the nerves causing pain. Hormonal changes also affect the ligaments of the hips, dropping to facilitate the birth process. Because of this, we adopted a new stance. We tend to offset the weight of the belly echándonos backwards, putting pressure and extending the lower back.
Chiropractic is a natural and healthy alternative to treat back pain before, during and after pregnancy. Your spine is composed of 24 vertebrae, the sacrum, the coccyx, discs 23 and 31 pairs of nerves emerging from between the vertebrae and branch to different parts of the body. Vertebrae are the bones that form its backbone and between each of these are the discs. These are composed of a gelatinous substance in the center and a fiber cancel out. The disks are used to absorb shock, reduce friction between the vertebrae and to allow for movement in the spine.
All these structural and hormonal changes that occur during pregnancy can cause the vertebrae desalinien, this is known as a “subluxation.” The sciatic nerve, the longest nerve in the body, which goes from the lower back and down the legs, is the most commonly affected, causing symptoms in the lower back as in the legs. Besides affecting the nervous system, subluxations can affect the musculo-skeletal system, causing muscle tension, knots, restricted movement and weakness in muscles, among others.
Unlike conventional medicine, chiropractic seeks to identify and treat the root of the problem instead of symptoms, to treat the condition. Chiropractic treatment consists primarily of an “adjustment” or “manipulation” backbone. The purpose is to accommodate the vertebrae that are misaligned so as to eliminate the cause of pain.
There are different methods of vertebral manipulation and these may vary according to how advanced the pregnancy is. The treatment is safe for both you and the baby and can be carried out until birth. Your chiropractor may also suggest other treatments to improve posture and eliminate back pain, such as ice, heat, massage or stretching exercises among others. In addition to chiropractic treatment, maintaining a good posture, exercise regularly and maintain a proper diet can help you live a healthier life. Remember though that does not suffer from back pain at the moment, chiropractic is the best alternative to prevent back pain during and after pregnancy.
Tips for maintaining good posture:
- Keep your head and shoulders over your hips centralized – and keep your spine right.
- When you lift something by not bending the waist, hips and bend your knees and get up with his legs.
- When you achieve something turn the whole body, not just the head and neck
- When you sit keep your knees at hips and keep the back straight.
- Sleep on your side with your knees slightly bent. Use a pillow in the neck, one between the knees and below the abdomen to relieve pressure on his spine.
Sex During Pregnancy
A good sexual relationship during pregnancy is crucial to strengthen the union of the couple. One should not forget that in addition to a living process of assuming new roles, the parents, men and women are still lovers. Although there are many ways of experiencing sexuality during pregnancy, is that the current sex life is affected by issues such as:
- Fear of harming the fetus.
- The decline in sexual desire, usually more from it than from it.
- Type sociocultural inhibitions. Her role as mother / father can hide your identity as a lover.
Breaks in the sexual life during pregnancy is only indicated in the following cases:
- History of abortion.
- Vaginal bleeding.
- Threat of premature labor.
In general, the quarter is more conducive to sexual life is the second. According to studies, 80% of women experience a significant improvement in their sex life during this period and even much of it, sex is even better than when not pregnant. This increased sensitivity and excitability can be explained by increased blood flow to the pelvic area, genitals of women are more vascularized, and there is a greater amount of lubricating materials in the genitals. Por supuesto, los motivos sicológicos también tienen un peso determinante de esta situación.
Sometimes the physical changes in women can cause men are sexually inhibited. It is not really the physical changes that make it less desirable in the eyes of your partner, the reasons are purely psychological. Without taking into account the purely physical, sex during pregnancy may improve due to the development of a fundamental feeling between the couple, who previously had the best background: tenderness. Besides the absence of the risk of pregnancy body love becomes a more relaxed experience.
Cervical Cancer And Symptoms
Other names Cervical Cancer, Cervical cancer. The cervix or uterine cervix is the lower part of the uterus, the place where the baby grows during pregnancy. Cervical cancer is caused by several types of a virus called human papillomavirus (HPV). The virus is spread by sexual contact. The body of most women are able to fight HPV infection. But sometimes the virus leads to cancer. If you smoke, have many children, has used birth control pills for long periods or have an HPV infection is more risk of that.
At first, cervical cancer may not cause symptoms, but later may have pelvic pain or vaginal bleeding. Usually takes several years for normal cells of the cervix into cancer cells. The doctor can find abnormal cells or with a vaginal smear cytology (Pap), an examination of cervical cells under a microscope. Getting regular Pap tests can detect and treat changing cells before they turn into cancer.
Detection & Symptoms:
It can detect cervical cancer in its early stages….?
In general, cervical cancer can be detected in its early stages by regular Pap tests. Because the Pap smears are more common, pre-invasive lesions (pre-cancers) of the cervix are detected far more frequently than invasive cancer. Be alert to any sign and symptom of cervical cancer (see “How is it diagnosed cervical cancer?”) Can help avoid unnecessary delays in diagnosis. Detection in early stage greatly improves the chances of successful treatment and prevent any changes in cervical cells become cancerous.
Deaths due to cervical cancer are more common in countries where women can not be done routinely Papanicolaou tests. In fact, cervical cancer is the leading cause of cancer death among women in many developing countries. These cancers are usually diagnosed at a late stage (invasive), instead of pre-cancerous changes or early stages.
How are diagnosed with cervical cancer………?
Signs And Symptoms Of Cervical Cancer
Women with cervical cancer in early stage and pre-cancers usually have no symptoms. Symptoms often do not begin until a cancer becomes invasive and grows into the adjacent tissue. When this happens, the most common symptoms are:
- Abnormal vaginal bleeding, as bleeding after sexual (vaginal intercourse), bleeding after menopause, bleeding and spotting between periods and menstrual periods lasting longer, or bleeding more profuse than usual. Bleeding after a shower or after vaginal pelvic examination is a common symptom of cervical cancer, not pre-cancer.
- An unusual vaginal discharge (the discharge may contain some blood and may be present between periods or after menopause.
- Pain during sex (intercourse).These signs and symptoms can also be caused by conditions other than cervical cancer. For example, an infection can cause pain or, rarely, bleeding. Still, if you have any of these signs or other suspicious symptoms, it is important to see your doctor immediately. Ignoring symptoms can allow the cancer to progress to a more advanced stage and reduce their chances of effective treatment.
The best thing is to not wait until symptoms appear. Get Pap tests and pelvic exams regularly.
Often, your doctor can treat pre-cancers. If it is suspected that the cancer is invasive, your doctor will refer you to a gynecologist oncologist, a doctor who specializes in cancers of the female reproductive system. Some patients also will be referred to a radiation oncologist, a doctor who specializes in treating cancer with radiation.
- Diagnostic tests for cervical cancer, Many of the diagnostic tests that are described below are not necessary for each patient. The decision to use these tests is based on the results of physical examination and biopsy.
- Clinical history and physical examination, The first step that will take your medical consultation is to make a personal and family medical history complete. This includes information on risk factors and symptoms of cervical cancer. A complete physical examination to help assess your overall health. In addition, special attention to the lymph nodes for evidence of metastasis (spread of cancer).
- Cystoscopy, examination under anesthesia and Proctoscope,These procedures are done more frequently in women with large tumors. They are not needed if cancer is detected early.
At cystoscopy the bladder is inserted into the urethra through a thin tube with a lens and a light. This allows the doctor to examine your bladder and urethra to see if the cancer is growing in these areas. Can be extracted from biopsy samples during cystoscopy testing pathological (microscopic). Cystoscopy can be done using local anesthesia, but some patients may require general anesthesia. Your doctor will tell you what to expect before and after the procedure.
The Proctoscope is a visual inspection of the rectum through a lighted tube to determine if cervical cancer has spread to the rectum.
Your doctor may also perform a pelvic exam while you are under anesthesia to determine if the cancer has spread beyond the cervix.
How are classified by stage cervical cancer…….?
The classification by stages (stages) is the process of determining how far the cancer has spread. Collecting the information on the examinations and tests to determine the size of tumor, how far it has penetrated the tissues inside or around the cervix and spread to lymph nodes or other distant organs (metastasis). This is an important process because the stage of cancer is the most important factor to select the appropriate treatment plan.
A classification system is a phased approach using the team that serves your cancer to summarize the degree of spread of cancer. Cervical cancer is classified by stages through the Classification System FIGO (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics). This system classifies the disease into stages 0 to IV, based on a more clinical surgery. This means that the spread of the disease is assessed by physical examination of the doctor and some tests in some cases, such as cystoscopy and Proctoscope.
Surgery may reveal that the cancer has spread more than doctors originally thought. This new information could change the treatment plan, but does not change the FIGO stage of the patient. This classification system is different from the systems of other cancers. Systems for other cancers take into account whether the cancer has spread to local lymph nodes. The FIGO system does not take this into account, although we know that the prognosis is worse if the cancer has spread to lymph nodes.
1. Stage 0: Cancer cells are very superficial (affecting only the surface), and are found only in the layer of cells that line the cervix. Moreover, these cells have not grown (invaded) into the deeper tissues of the cervix. The stage is also called carcinoma in situ (CIS) or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grade III.
2. Stage I: In this stage the cancer has invaded the cervix, but has not spread elsewhere.
- Stage IA : This is the earliest form of stage I. There is a very small amount of cancer that is only visible under a microscope.
- Stage IA1: Invasion area is less than 3 millimeters (about 1 / 8 inch) deep and less than 7 mm (about 1 / 4 inch) wide.
- Stage IA2: The area is spread between 3 mm and 5 mm (about 1 / 5 inch) deep and less than 7 mm (about 1 / 4 inch) wide.
- Stage IB : this stage includes stage I cancers that can be seen without a microscope. This stage also includes cancerous tumors that can be viewed only with a microscope and have spread to more than 5 mm (about 1 / 5 inch) deep within the connective tissue of the cervix or have more than 7 mm wide.
- Stage IB1: The cancer can be seen, but no more than 4 centimeters (about 1-3/5 inch).
- Stage IB2: The cancer can be seen and has more than 4 centimeters.
3. Stage II: In this stage the cancer has grown beyond the cervix and uterus, but has not spread to the walls of the pelvis or the lower part of the vagina.
- Stage IIA: Cancer has spread to tissues near the cervix (parametrium). Can the cancer has risen to the top of the vagina.
- Stage IIB: Cancer has spread to tissues surrounding the cervix.
4. Stage III: Cancer has spread to the bottom of the vagina or pelvic wall. The cancer may be blocking the ureters (ducts that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder).
- Stage IIIA: Cancer has spread to the lower third of the vagina, but not to the pelvic wall.
- Stage IIIB: Cancer has grown into the pelvic wall. If the tumor has blocked the ureters (a condition called hydronephrosis) also qualifies stage IIIB.
5. Stage IIIB is defined by the fact that the cancer has spread to lymph nodes in the pelvis.
6. Stage IV: This is the most advanced stage of cervical cancer. The cancer has spread to adjacent organs or other body parts.
- Stage IVA: Cancer has spread to the bladder or rectum, organs that are close to the cervix.
- Stage IVB : Cancer has spread to distant organs beyond the pelvic area, such as the lungs.
