Contraceptive Pills

September 30, 2009

There are so many contraceptive pills which prevents pregnancy. Contraceptive pills when consumed after sex will prevent pregnancy. These drugs can prevent ovulation or fertilization. These are distinct from abortion. Abortion is carried out after fertilization. Yasmin is one such low birth control contraceptive pill. How it prevents pregnancy? It uses two hormones progesterone and estrogen to prevent ovulation or fertilization. To be more specific Yasmin combines Drospirenone(a form of progesterone) and ethinyl estradiol(a form of estrogen) to prevent pregnancy. These two hormones prevent the ovary from releasing the egg. If ovulation persists yasmin can thicken the uterus lining. Thus prevents the sperm to enter and reach the egg. Thus fertilization is prevented. As with any other birth control pill much care should be taken while consuming Yasmin. You need to set up a regular time so as to get 100% effectiveness of the pill. Missing pills may have serious consequences. It’s highly safe to consult a physician before taking these pills. When antibiotics or any other drugs are consumed along with these contraceptive pills it may lead to some serious chemical reaction which may affect your system. But Yasmin is a highly safe with fewer side effects.

Nutrition and Fitness

September 25, 2009

Nutrition is important for living organisms to sustain life. Good nutrition helps to prevent many commonly occurring health related problems. Nutrients come in seven different classes such as carbohydrates, fats, vitamins etc. and many foods tend to contain a mixture of these classes. Poor heath occurs due to the deficiency or excess of these nutrients in our body. Just as nutrition is important to our good health so as fitness. Being fit involves working on all the aspects of your body – what you eat, how you maintain your diet etc. Nowadays everyone goes on and on about abs (six pack, eight packs etc.) but being fit isn’t just about having these stuff. A six pack might look good but it is not of much use if you are not strong enough mentally. If you are not eating well, it directly affects you both physically and mentally. Hence to be fit strong enough, forget the abs-pack craze. There is no point in having numbers that you can count on your stomach. It is better to have increased core muscle strength rather than having a six pack. Every individual must know about their body thoroughly and they should work out to shape their body according to their job demands.

All adults over 40 should have their blood pressure checked annually. But just one blood pressure measurement is not sufficient to diagnose hypertension unless the reading is in the severe range. Some people also have 'white coat' hypertension in which their blood pressure rises when they are visiting a doctor but in normal at other times. In order to properly diagnose hypertension several measurements are needed- taken at different times and perhaps at different places.

Is Modern Medicine getting instrumental?

September 1, 2009

In today’s world, there are doctors who respect the distinctive identity of the patient, and are humane and communicative. But there is one fact that cannot be denied- modern medicine is getting instrumental, and is losing its bond with a normal patient. There are possibly two reasons for this. One may be that expertise medical knowledge cannot be separated from the discourse of power that permits the doctor and the medical machinery to have an absolute control over the patient. The patient has already acquired a stigmatized identity – a ‘case’ to be filed and documented, and kept under perpetual surveillance until ‘normalcy’ is restored. In this encounter, the patient has no voice, no reflexivity. And this asymmetry goes on, based on a well-constructed premise that doctors know best about their patients. Secondly, in contemporary times, new technologies have drastically altered the culture of the medical enterprise. Doctors are becoming more and more dependent on these gadgets. The MRI scan, ultrasound and all the other sophisticated tests reduce the patient into a mere body; absolutely fragmented and thoroughly objectified. These tests and reports acquire a ‘scientific’ character and deprive the doctor of knowing about the patient – say, by talking, touching and listening. See more about this in the next post.
