What is the pituitary gland?
The pituitary gland is a part of your endocrine system. Its main function is to secrete hormones into your bloodstream. These hormones can affect other organs and glands, especially your:
thyroid
reproductive organs
adrenal glands
The pituitary gland is sometimes called the master gland because it’s involved in so many processes.
Pituitary gland anatomy and function
The pituitary gland is small and oval-shaped. It’s located behind your nose, near the underside of your brain. It’s attached to the hypothalamus by a stalklike structure.
The hypothalamus is a small area of your brain. It’s very important in controlling the balance of your bodily functions. It controls the release of hormones from the pituitary gland.
The pituitary gland can be divided into two different parts: the anterior and posterior lobes.
Anterior lobe
The anterior lobe of your pituitary gland is made up of several different types of cells that produce and release different types of hormones, including:
Growth hormone. Growth hormone regulates growth and physical development. It can stimulate growth in almost all of your tissues. Its primary targets are bones and muscles.
Thyroid-stimulating hormone. This hormone activates your thyroid to release thyroid hormones. Your thyroid gland and the hormones it produces are crucial for metabolism.
Adrenocorticotropic hormone. This hormone stimulates your adrenal glands to produce cortisol and other hormones.
Follicle-stimulating hormone. Follicle-stimulating hormone is involved with estrogen secretion and the growth of egg cells in women. It’s also important for s***m cell production in men.
Luteinizing hormone. Luteinizing hormone is involved in the production of estrogen in women and testosterone in men.
Prolactin. Prolactin helps women who are breastfeeding produce milk.
Endorphins. Endorphins have pain-relieving properties and are thought to be connected to the “pleasure centers” of the brain.
Enkephalins. Enkephalins are closely related to endorphins and have similar pain-relieving effects.
Beta-melanocyte-stimulating hormone. This hormone helps to stimulate increased pigmentation of your skin in response to exposure to ultraviolet radiation.
Posterior lobe
The posterior lobe of the pituitary gland also secretes hormones. These hormones are usually produced in your hypothalamus and stored in the posterior lobe until they’re released.
Hormones stored in the posterior lobe include:
Vasopressin. This is also called antidiuretic hormone. It helps your body conserve water and prevent dehydration.
Oxytocin. This hormone stimulates the release of breast milk. It also stimulates contractions of the uterus during labor.
Pituitary gland conditions
Several conditions can affect your pituitary gland. Most are caused by a tumor in or around the pituitary gland. This can impact the release of hormones.
Examples of pituitary gland disorders include:
Pituitary tumors. Pituitary tumors are usually noncancerous. However, they often interfere with the release of hormones. They can also press against other areas of your brain, leading to vision problems or headaches.
Hypopituitarism. This condition causes your pituitary gland to produce very little or none of one or more of its hormones. This can affect things like growth or reproductive system function.
Acromegaly. In this condition, your pituitary gland produces too much growth hormone. This can lead to excessive growth, especially of your hands and feet. It’s often associated with pituitary tumors.
Diabetes insipidus. This can be caused by a problem with the release of vasopressin. It’s usually due to a head injury, surgery, or a tumor. As a result, people with this condition pass large amounts of heavily diluted urine. They may also feel like they need to drink a lot of water or other fluids.
Cushing’s disease. The pituitary gland releases too much adrenocorticotropic hormone in people with this condition. This can lead to easy bruising, high blood pressure, weakness, and weight gain. It’s often caused by a tumor near or in the pituitary gland.
Hyperprolactinemia. In this condition, your blood contains an unusually high amount of prolactin. This can lead to infertility and a decreased s*x drive.
Traumatic brain injury. This involves a sudden blow to your brain. Depending on the injury, it can sometimes damage your pituitary gland and cause problems with memory, communication, or behavior.
Symptoms of a pituitary gland condition
Your pituitary gland is involved in a range of things, so any condition involving it can produce a diverse set of symptoms.
Make an appointment with your doctor if you regularly notice:
headaches
weakness or fatigue
high blood pressure
unexplained weight gain
trouble sleeping
changes in psychological state, including mood swings or depression
memory loss
reproductive issues, including infertility, erectile dysfunction, and irregular periods
excessive or unusual hair growth
lactating when you’re not nursing
Most of the conditions that cause these symptoms are easy to treat and manage once you determine the underlying cause.

OVARIAN CYSTS
What are ovarian cysts? 🤔
✍️ The ovaries are part of the female reproductive system. They’re located in the lower abdomen on both sides of the uterus. Women have two ovaries that produce eggs as well as the hormones estrogen and progesterone. Sometimes, a fluid-filled sac called a cyst will develop on one of the ovaries.
👉 Types of ovarian cysts
🔵 Follicle cyst: If the follicle doesn’t break open to release an egg, the fluid inside the follicle can form a cyst on the o***y.
🔵 Corpus luteum cysts: If the sac doesn’t dissolve and the opening of the follicle seals, additional fluid can develop inside the sac, and this accumulation of fluid causes a corpus luteum cyst.
🟣 Other types of ovarian cysts include:
Dermoid cysts: sac-like growths on the ovaries that can contain hair, fat, and other tissue
Cystadenomas: noncancerous growths that can develop on the outer surface of the ovaries
Endometriomas: tissues that normally grow inside the uterus can develop outside the uterus and attach to the ovaries, resulting in a cyst.
👉 Symptoms of an ovarian cyst
🔴 abdominal bloating or swelling
🔴 painful bowel movements
🔴 pelvic pain before or during the menstrual cycle
🔴 painful in*******se
🔴 pain in the lower back or thighs
🔴 breast tenderness
🔴 nausea and vomiting
Severe symptoms of an ovarian cyst that require immediate medical attention includes:
❌ severe or sharp pelvic pain
❌ fever
❌ faintness or dizziness
❌ rapid breathing

PELVIC INFLAMMATORY DISEASE
Hello everyone today we are discussing about pid ,so what is pid and why is it so dangerous to the human body? lets find out
First of all what is pelvic inflammatory disease?
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is an infection of the female reproductive organs. The pelvis is in the lower abdomen and includes the Fallopian tubes, ovaries, cervix, and the uterus.According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, this condition affects about 5 percent of women in the United States.Several different types of bacteria can cause PID, including the same bacteria that cause the s*xually transmitted infections (STIs) gonorrhea and chlamydia. What commonly occurs is that bacteria first enter the va**na and cause an infection. As time passes, this infection can move into the pelvic organs.PID can become extremely dangerous, even life-threatening, if the infection spreads to your blood. If you suspect that you may have an infection, see your doctor as soon as possible.
Risk factors for pelvic inflammatory disease
Your risk of pelvic inflammatory disease increases if you have gonorrhea or chlamydia, or have had an STI before. However, you can develop PID without ever having an STI.
Other factors that can heighten your risk for PID include:
• having s*x under the age of 25
• having multiple s*x partners
• having s*x without a condom
• recently having an intrauterine device (IUD) inserted
• douching
• having a history of pelvic inflammatory disease
Some women with pelvic inflammatory disease don’t have symptoms. For the women who do have symptoms, these can include:
• pain in the lower abdomen (the most common symptom)
• pain in the upper abdomen
• fever
• painful s*x
• painful urination
• irregular bleeding
• increased or foul-smelling va**nal discharge
• tiredness
Pelvic inflammatory disease can cause mild or moderate pain. However, some women have severe pain and symptoms, such as:
• sharp pain in the abdomen
• vomiting
• fainting
• a high fever (greater than 101°F)
If you have severe symptoms, call your doctor immediately or go to the emergency room. The infection may have spread to your bloodstream or other parts of your body. This can be life-threatening.
Your doctor may be able to diagnose PID after hearing your symptoms. In most cases, your doctor will run tests to confirm the diagnosis.
Ways to prevent pelvic inflammatory disease
You can lower your risk of PID by:
• practicing safe s*x
• getting tested for s*xually transmitted infections
• avoiding douches
• wiping from front to back after using the bathroom to stop bacteria from entering your va**na
If you don’t treat your PID, your symptoms can worsen and lead to problems, such as:
• infertility, an inability to conceive a child
• ectopic pregnancy, a pregnancy that occurs outside the womb
• chronic pelvic pain, pain in the lower abdomen caused by scarring of the Fallopian tubes and other pelvic organs
• The infection can also spread to other parts of your body. If it spreads to your blood, it can become life-threatening.

Pelvic inflammatory disease is a very treatable condition and most women make a full recovery.With our help,seek help before it is too late by contacting the following number +260976081497/+260762702876

Ectopic pregnancy is a common, life-threatening condition that affects 1 in 80 pregnancies. It means “an out-of-place pregnancy” and occurs when a woman’s o**m (egg), that has been fertilised, implants (gets stuck) outside the womb. The most common place for an ectopic pregnancy is a Fallopian tube although there are other sites where an ectopic pregnancy can be located.

AN EXCELLENT HOME REMEDY

Garlic, Honey and Apple Cider Vinegar: This is an excellent home remedy that you want to keep available at all times in your home. It's great as a preventative and to maintain good health. There are some variations to this with the addition of other ingredients such as ginger or cayenne pepper.
The basic blend includes the three main ingredients of garlic, apple cider vinegar and honey. Each of these three ingredients has its own advantages and in this blend, a synergistic effect enhances the properties of each. The apple cider vinegar should be unfiltered and the honey should be raw, unpasteurized (and preferably organic) honey for all the benefits to be achieved.
One of the main reasons that honey is pasteurized is to speed up the packaging process (heating makes it flow much faster) - so almost all supermarket honeys will not fit. This remedy is an immune booster, it lowers blood pressure as well as cholesterol (if you are someone who still believes in this hypothesis), it leads to fewer colds and infections and is helpful in conditions such as the gout, arthritis and joint pain. It is also a good tonic for the digestive tract, it benefits the skin and helps to lose weight. In short, it is beneficial for a wide range of conditions as it is a general immune stimulant and activator. You can read the many articles on garlic, honey and vinegar elsewhere on the internet.

INGREDIENTS
• 8 cloves of fresh garlic
• 1 cup (200 mL) of unfiltered and unpasteurized organic apple cider vinegar .
• 1 cup (200 mL) unpasteurized raw honey
• Small piece of ginger (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS
Mix all the ingredients in a blender and mix at high speed for 45 to 60 seconds. Alternatively, you can put the garlic first, mix well so that it becomes good - or you can use a garlic grinder instead - then place in the blender, then mix the honey vinegar and apple cider and mix for another 10-15 seconds. Then pour into a glass jar or container and leave in the refrigerator for five days, stirring occasionally.
After five days, the mixture is ready.

VARIATIONS:
There are other things that can be included. You can add a small amount of ginger (one or two inches in length), you simply put it in the blender with garlic, and cayenne pepper (a small to medium pepper) can also be added.

DOSAGE The normal dosage is 2 teaspoons in a glass of warm water, every day, the first thing in the morning. The mixture is very strong and should not be taken directly we also have medicine that cure permanently without surgery.Our medicine will eliminate the following SYMPTOMS of fibroids

Belly Fat Burning Foods

1. Fruits: Fruits are very low calorie content, rich in vitamins and minerals. Establish this as an essential food to burn belly fat in your diet!

Citrus fruits like orange, lemon, kiwi, tangerine, fresh limes are excellent fat burners that boosts metabolism and the acid present in it burns fat faster compared to other fruits.

Other fat-burning fruits include apple, watermelon, grapes and strawberries.

2. Vegetables: are rich in minerals and water content, their calorie content is lower than fruits. And this makes it another essential addition to our diet as foods that reduce belly fat.

Cabbage, broccoli, tomatoes, spinach, beans; peas are all very rich in minerals and have nil fat content in them.

Include them in your meal for best benefits.

3. Pulses: Pulses or dalis rich in amino acids, low on calories, and fat. Simple boiled dal is healthier than fried or spiced up dal. Eat right to reap health benefits.

4. Oats:Oats contain insoluble fiber and some carbohydrates that curb your hunger, give you strength for better workout and reduce fat content in your body. Oats come fourth in the list. Having a bowl of oats with skimmed milk for breakfast is the best thing you can opt in the morning. When you are buying oatmeal, make sure that you choose one that is flavorless. Flavoured oats contain sugar and chemicals. Oats being high in fibers and help in digestion properly.

5. Almonds and walnuts: Nuts keep your stomach full for a longer time and they are good fats that do not add to your calories. Nuts in general are a good source of nutrients to burn fat for girls who are vegetarian. Nuts are full of omega-3 fat that increases energy and metabolism.

6. Eggs: An egg is a protein rich food that is low in calories and fat. Having one boiled egg daily will help burn belly fat. Other than being a rich source of proteins, minerals and anti-oxidants, eggs also contain an amino acid called leucine. This acts as a catalyst in burning extra fats. So having an egg during breakfast is a must for teenagers.

7. Fish: Salmon, mackerel, tuna are rich in protein, include good fatty acids (omega 3 acid) and mono saturated fatty acids that boost metabolism and are good belly fat burning foods.

8. Water: Have lots and lots of water to increase your metabolism and burn fats.

9. No sugary foods: All sugary foods should take a back seat in your diet list. Avoid them altogether except on occasions.

10. Whey proteins: These proteins can be consumed as supplements to reduce weight. They burn the fats and help building muscles.

Losing belly fat is really not a big issue if not genetic. Some practices, some precautions, and you will be ready to flaunt a wash-board stomach.

A Small lecture on Pot Belly:

👉Having a pot-belly has become very rampant among men in the Nigerian society and the world at large.

👉 Apart from affecting smart dressing in men, it poses health hazards.

👉Most women strongly frown at this odd development.

👉Changes in a person’s lifestyle are a more direct and more effective approach to eliminating the problem.

👉Excessive belly fat is said to increases the risk of diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, sleep apnea.

Major Causes ✅

👉Drinking Too Much Alcohol✅

“Beer belly” is the common term for excess fat that has accumulated due to drinking a lot of alcohol on a regular basis.
👉 Beer isn’t the only culprit, though. Contrary to the specific term, drinking an excessive amount of any alcoholic beverage can cause beer belly. (Except wine, according to research.)

👉Alcohol contains nothing but empty calories that are stored in the stomach area.

👉Eating Too Many Bad Carbohydrates✅

👉There are good carbs and there are bad carbs.

👉 Eating unrefined carbs like fruit, legumes, vegetables and whole grains is good for you, and helps in weight control.

👉Eating biscuits, cakes, donuts, white bread and other refined carbs does the opposite.

👉Eat too many of these carbs and a person’s insulin level will rise.

👉 Their metabolism will slow down, and the excess sugar the body can’t use will be stored as belly fat.

👉Stress Overload✅

👉Too much stress has many negative impacts on the body.

👉Stress causes the body to switch into survival mode.

👉One way the body ensures its survival is by storing more fat so starvation doesn’t occur if there’s no food eaten.

👉 Stress also causes the body to produce excessive amounts of Cortisol.

👉 This hormone moves stored fat to the abdomen area and creates belly fat.

👉 According to a study by the Psychology Department at Yale University, women (in particular) who had a higher amount of belly fat were more negative, and lived with higher levels of stress.

👉Genetics✅

This cause of belly fat may be the toughest one to hear, because it entails not really being able to do all that much to prevent it.

👉 Genetics play a role in deciding where the fat distribution goes in your body, and it practically relates to two different body types.

👉 Either you are apple- shaped or pear-shaped. If you are pear-shaped, then the fat generally accumulates in your lower areas like your f***y.

👉 If you are apple-shaped, then your body has the tendency of storing fat around your midsection, thus leading to belly fat.

👉Sedentary Lifestyle✅

👉A sedentary lifestyle is defined as one in which a person fails to exercise regularly, or fails to get any exercise at all.

👉 The biggest problem with a sedentary lifestyle is that it can increase your chances of developing serious health conditions, which are all somewhat preventable.

👉 If you lead a sedentary lifestyle, you are raising your chances of dying younger, yet you can easily avoid this by simply moving more and exercising regularly.

👉It commonly consists of the practice of sitting on the couch and watching too much TV.

👉 Such a lifestyle is not limited just to TV watching; it also involves reading too much or using the computer too much.

👉Basically, if you are not moving enough, it is sedentary.

👉Enlargement of the Viscera ✅

👉This is when there is enlargement of the internal organs like the intestine, stomach, and liver.

👉This could be as a result of unhealthy eating habit and lack of exercise. Alcohol also lead to this.

👉Not all big belly is a resultant effect of fat, some are enlarged internal organs.
