What is anemia?

🌟Anemia happens when the number of healthy red blood cells in your body is too low.
🌟Red blood cells carry oxygen to all of the body’s tissues.
🌟Anemia is measured according to the amount of hemoglobin — the protein within red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the body’s tissues.

🌟Iron deficiency is the most common cause of anemia.

🌟Women need more iron and folate than men because of iron losses during their menstrual cycle and fetal development during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

What are the symptoms of anemia?
🌟People with anemia appear pale.
lightheadedness or dizziness, especially when active or standing up
unusual cravings, such as wanting to eat ice, clay, or dirt
trouble concentrating or tiredness
constipation
🌟If anemia is severe, fainting may occur. Other symptoms include:
brittle nails
shortness of breath
chest pains

How is anemia diagnosed?
🌟Complete blood count (CBC). The CBC blood test shows the number and size of the red blood cells.
🌟Serum iron levels. This blood test shows if iron deficiency is the cause of anemia.
🌟Ferritin test. This blood test analyzes iron stores.
🌟Vitamin B-12 test. This blood test shows vitamin B-12 levels and helps your doctor determine if they’re too low.
🌟Folic acid test. This blood test reveals if serum folate levels are low.
🌟Stool test for occult blood. This test applies a chemical to a stool specimen to see if blood is present.
If the test is positive, it means that blood is being lost somewhere in the gastrointestinal tract, from the mouth to the re**um.

Fertility issues can create anxiety in many couples.
Sometimes the solutions are easier than the problems.
The first video is about fertile period.
Usual menstrual cycle is 28 days but can vary from 21 to 35 days.
Ovulation is the release of an egg from an o***y.
It happens in the midway of the menstrual cycle.
Basically if you know when you are ovulating you can plan having s*x(intercourse) during this time .
This would mean the best chance of getting pregnant.
The best time or fertile period is a few days before and after the egg is released.
1. Basal temperature monitored daily can give an idea about when ovulation has happened
2. Changes in the type of white discharge from cervix (egg white like cervix discharge ) may indicate egg is going to be released
3 Some LH ( hormone) detection kits available but may not be too accurate.

The most pleasant and effective way of becoming pregnant is regular s*x.

But hey there don't get too worked up with the days and number of times you need to do it.
just make sure you do it.
Many couples forget the most important part of baby making and that is love making.
So relax dear couples and sit back evaluate what is the issue so you can get to where you want to reach.

Fetal movements are the kicks rolls or even hiccups of your unborn baby. You may start to feel these movements when you are 20 to 22 weeks pregnant.
The movements grow stronger and more frequent as your baby grows.
