*MALE AND FEMALE INFERTILITY*

**Secondary infertility* Makamboita vamwe or mumwe mwana before but izvozvi maakuda mumwe zvaakuramba

*FEMALE INFERTILITY*
is a condition where you cannot get pregnant after one year of trying to conceive.

🛑You need to ovulate. Achieving pregnancy requires that your ovaries produce and release an egg, a process known as ovulation.

🛑 Your partner needs s***m.For most couples, this isn't a problem unless your partner has a history of illness or surgery.

🛑 You need to have regular in*******se. You need to have regular s*xual in*******se during your fertile time.
🛑 You need to have open fallopian tubes and a normal uterus. The egg and s***m meet in the fallopian tubes, and the pregnancy needs a healthy place to grow.
🛑ovulation disorders meaning you ovulate infrequently or not at all
: *Female fertility* problems include
🛑irregular ovulation, 🛑blockages in the fallopian tubes, and 🛑abnormalities of the uterus such as fibroids, ovarian of cysts and endometriosis.
*What Causes* Infertility? Problems with ovulation are the most common reasons for infertility in women.
âś…A woman's age, âś…hormonal imbalances, âś…too much weight gain or too much weight loss , âś…exposure to chemicals or radiation and cigarette smoking all have an impact on
A menstrual cycle that's too long (35 days or more), too short (less than 21 days) can affect fertility

*Infertility* is defined as trying to get pregnant with frequent, unprotected s*x for at least a year with no success.
*Female infertility* is caused by one or more of the factors below.

*Ovulation disorders*
🛑 Missed periods
🛑Irregular period changing of cycle time and again no partern
🛑Stopped periods
Ovulating infrequently or not at all accounts for most cases of infertility

*Polycystic o***y syndrome (PCOS)*. PCOS causes a hormone imbalance, which affects ovulation. PCOS is associated with insulin resistance and obesity, abnormal hair growth on the face or body, and acne. It's the most common cause of female infertility

*Damage to fallopian tubes* (tubal infertility)
Damaged or blocked fallopian tubes keep s***m from getting to the egg or block the passage of the fertilized egg into the uterus. Causes of fallopian tube damage or blockage can include:

*Pelvic inflammatory disease*, an infection of the uterus and fallopian tubes due to chlamydia, gonorrhea or other s*xually transmitted infections
*Previous surgery in the abdomen or pelvis*, including surgery for ectopic pregnancy, in which a fertilized egg implants and develops somewhere other than the uterus, usually in a fallopian tube
*Endometriosis*
Endometriosis occurs when tissue that typically grows in the uterus implants and grows in other places. This extra tissue growth — and the surgical removal of it — can cause scarring, which can block fallopian tubes and keep an egg and s***m from uniting.

Endometriosis can also disrupt implantation of the fertilized egg. The condition also seems to affect fertility in less-direct ways, such as damage to the s***m or egg.
*Uterine or cervical causes*

*Fibroids* Benign polyps or tumors (fibroids or myomas) are common in the uterus. Some can block fallopian tubes or interfere with implantation, affecting fertility.

*What is male infertility?*
Infertility is a problem with your reproductive system that stops you from impregnating a female.

What causes male infertility?
▪️Low s***m count
▪️S***m motility rate
▪️S***m morphology and shape
▪️Azoos***mia: failure to produce s***ms zero s***m
▪️Oligos***mia: The production of low or poor quality s***m.
▪️Malformed or s***m motility s***m: S***m that cannot live long enough to fertilize the egg.
▪️Some medical conditions: Examples include diabetes
▪️Variococles: This is a condition where the veins on your testicles are larger than normal, causing them to overheat, which can affect the shape or number of your s***m.
▪️Cancer treatments: Chemotherapy, radiation or a surgery that removes the testicles (one or both).
▪️Unhealthy habits: Heavy alcohol&smoking
▪️Trauma to the te**es.
▪️Hormonal disorder low testosterone levels

*Low s***m count*
🛑Normal s***m densities range from 15 million to greater than 200 million s***m per milliliter of semen. You are considered to have a low s***m count if you have fewer than 15 million s***m per milliliter or less than 39 million s***m total per ej*****te.

🛑Your chance of getting your partner pregnant decreases with decreasing s***m counts. Some men have no s***m in their semen at all. This is known as azoos***mia

🛑There are many factors involved in reproduction, and the number of s***m in your semen is only one. Some men with low s***m counts successfully father children. Likewise, some men with normal s***m counts are unable to father children. Even if you have enough s***m, other factors are important to achieve a pregnancy, including normal s***m movement (motility).

: *What is “azoos***mia” is inability or failure to produce s***ms?*
🛑Azoos***mia is the medical term used when there are no s***m in the ej*****te. It can be “obstructive,” where there is a blockage preventing s***m from entering the ej*****te, or it can be “nonobstructive” when it is due to decreased s***m production by the te**is.

*What causes azoos***mia?*

We know of many potential causes, including some
✅genetic conditions such as Klinefelter’s syndrome,
âś…medical treatments such as chemotherapy or radiation, recreational drugs such as some narcotics, âś…anatomical abnormalities such as varicoceles or absence of the vas deferens on each side.
Perhaps the most obvious cause would be a vasectomy, which prevents s***m from joining other fluids in the ej*****te. In most cases, though, azoos***mia is likely due to factors we don’t fully understand, such as
🛑genetic conditions, poor testicular development as a fetus/child or
🛑environmental toxins.
*Can I get pregnant if my husband has azoos***mia?*
Azoos***mia is a severe cause of male infertility

We offer natural herbal remedies to correct this permanently

12/03/2024

Tuberculosis (TB) is a disease which in humans is usually caused by bacteria called Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis)Risk factors of Tuberculosis

You are at risk of TB infection if you are around people with active TB disease who are coughing, which releases bacteria into the air. The risk of infection increases for intravenous drug users, healthcare workers, and people who live or work in a homeless shelter, migrant farm camp, prison or jail, or nursing home.

Most people who are infected with the bacteria that cause TB do not develop active disease. The following factors increase the risk that latent disease will develop into active disease:

✓Infection with HIV, the virus that causes AIDS and weakens the immune system
✓Diabetes mellitus
✓Low body weight
✓Head or neck cancer, leukemia, or Hodgkin’s disease
✓Some medical treatments, including corticosteroids or certain medications used for autoimmune or vasculitic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis or lupus, which suppress the immune system.
✓Silicosis, a respiratory condition caused by inhaling silica dust.Causes of tuberculosis.
TB is contagious, but it is not easy to catch. The chances of catching TB from someone you live or work with are much higher than from a stranger.Symptoms of Tuberculosis

Although tuberculosis (TB) is most frequently associated with symptoms involving the lungs—because the disease most often affects the lungs—it can affect any organ of the body. The disease can cause a variety of symptoms. If you have symptoms, your doctor or health Consultant will want to know when they began.

People with latent TB infection (an infection without active disease) have no symptoms.

The usual symptoms of TB include:

✓Fever
✓Chills
✓Night sweats
✓Cough
✓Loss of appetite
✓Weight loss
✓Blood in the sputum (phlegm)
✓Loss of energy*INBOX TO BOOK YOUR FULL BODY SCAN*

SYMPTOMS OF YEAST INFECTION

Yeast infection symptoms can range from mild to moderate and include:

✓Itching and irritation in the va**na and at the entrance to the va**na (v***a)
✓A burning sensation, especially during in*******se or while urinating
✓Redness and swelling of the v***a
✓Vaginal pain and soreness
✓Thick, white, odor-free va**nal discharge with a cottage cheese appearance

Complicated yeast infection

You might have a complicated yeast infection if:

✓You have severe signs and symptoms, such as extensive redness, swelling and itching that leads to the development of tears or cracks (fissures) or sores
✓You have recurrent yeast infections four or more in a single year
Your infection is caused by a type of candida other than Candida albicans
✓You're pregnant
✓You have uncontrolled diabetes
✓You have lowered immunity due to use of certain medications or a condition such as HIV infection

CAUSES

A va**nal yeast infection is caused by the fungus candida. Candida is a microorganism that's normally present in your va**na, along with bacteria. Your va**na naturally contains a balanced mix of yeast and bacteria.

Overgrowth of yeast can result from:

✓Antibiotic use, which leads to a decrease in the amount of lactobacillus bacteria in your va**na and a change in your va**nal pH that allows yeast to overgrow
✓Pregnancy
✓Uncontrolled diabetes
✓Impaired immune system
✓Anything that changes the type and amount of bacteria normally present in the va**na, such as douching or irritation from inadequate va**nal lubricationLIFESTYLE AND HOME REMEDIES

To reduce your risk of va**nal yeast infection:

✓Avoid douching.
✓Wear cotton underwear and loosefitting pants or skirts.
✓Avoid tight-fitting underwear or pantyhose.
✓Change out of wet clothes, such as swimsuits or workout attire, as soon as possible.
✓Stay out of hot tubs or very hot baths*INBOX TO BOOK YOUR FULL BODY SCAN*

TONSILITIS

Tonsillitis is inflammation of the tonsils, two oval-shaped pads of tissue at the back of the throat — one tonsil on each side. Signs and symptoms of tonsillitis include swollen tonsils, sore throat, difficulty swallowing and tender lymph nodes on the sides of the neck.

Most cases of tonsillitis are caused by infection with a common virus, but bacterial infections also may cause tonsillitis.

SYMPTOMS

❤️Red, swollen tonsils
❤️White or yellow coating or patches on the tonsils
❤️Sore throat
❤️Difficult or painful swallowing
❤️Fever
❤️Enlarged, tender glands (lymph nodes) in the neck
❤️A scratchy, muffled or throaty voice
❤️Bad breath
❤️Stomachache, particularly in younger children
Stiff neck
❤️Headache

In young children who are unable to describe how they feel, signs of tonsillitis may include:

❤️Drooling due to difficult or painful swallowing
❤️Refusal to eat
❤️Unusual fussiness

CAUSES

Tonsillitis is most often caused by common viruses, but bacterial infections can also be the cause.

The most common bacterium causing tonsillitis is Streptococcus pyogenes (group A streptococcus), the bacterium that causes strep throat. Other strains of strep and other bacteria also may cause tonsillitis.

Why do tonsils get infected?

The tonsils are the immune system's first line of defense against bacteria and viruses that enter your mouth. This function may make the tonsils particularly vulnerable to infection and inflammation.

COMPLICATIONS

Inflammation or swelling of the tonsils from frequent or ongoing (chronic) tonsillitis can cause complications such as:

✓Difficulty breathing
✓Disrupted breathing during sleep (obstructive sleep apnea)
✓Infection that spreads deep into surrounding tissue (tonsillar cellulitis)
✓Infection that results in a collection of pus behind a tonsil (tonsillar abscess

02/11/2023

DEFINITION
Amnesia refers to the loss of memories, such as facts, information and experiences. Though having no sense of who you are is a common plot device in movies and television, real-life amnesia generally doesn't cause a loss of self-identity.

Instead, people with amnesia — also called amnestic syndrome — are usually lucid and know who they are, but may have trouble learning new information and forming new memories.

Amnesia can be caused by damage to areas of the brain that are vital for memory processing. Unlike a temporary episode of memory loss (transient global amnesia), amnesia can be permanent.

There's no specific treatment for amnesia, but techniques for enhancing memory and psychological support can help people with amnesia and their families cope.SYMPTOMS
The two main features of amnesia are:

Impaired ability to learn new information following the onset of amnesia (anterograde amnesia)
Impaired ability to recall past events and previously familiar information (retrograde amnesia)
Most people with amnesia have problems with short-term memory — they can't retain new information. Recent memories are most likely to be lost, while more remote or deeply ingrained memories may be spared. Someone may recall experiences from childhood or know the names of past presidents, but not be able to name the current president or remember what month it is or what was for breakfast.

Isolated memory loss doesn't affect a person's intelligence, general knowledge, awareness, attention span, judgment, personality or identity. People with amnesia usually can understand written and spoken words and can learn skills such as bike riding or piano playing. They may understand they have a memory disorder.

Amnesia isn't the same as dementia. Dementia often includes memory loss, but it also involves other significant cognitive problems that lead to a decline in the ability to carry out daily activities.

A pattern of forgetfulness is also a common symptom of mild cognitive impairment (MCI), but the memory and other cognitive problems in MCI aren't as severe as those experienced in dementia.CAUSES
Normal memory function involves many parts of the brain, and any disease or injury that affects the brain can interfere with the intricacies of memory.

Amnesia can result from damage to brain structures that form the limbic system, which controls your emotions and memories. These structures include the thalamus, which lies deep within the center of your brain, and the hippocampal formations, which are situated within the temporal lobes of your brain.

Amnesia caused by brain injury or damage is known as neurological amnesia. Possible causes of neurological amnesia include:

Stroke
Brain inflammation (encephalitis) as a result of infection with a virus such as herpes simplex virus, as an autoimmune reaction to cancer somewhere else in the body (paraneoplastic limbic encephalitis), or as an autoimmune reaction in the absence of cancer
Lack of adequate oxygen in the brain, for example, from heart attack, respiratory distress or carbon monoxide poisoning
Long-term alcohol abuse leading to thiamin (vitamin B-1) deficiency (Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome)
Tumors in areas of the brain that control memory
Degenerative brain diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia
Seizures
Certain medications, such as benzodiazepinesRISK FACTORS
The chance of developing amnesia might increase if you've experienced:

Brain surgery, head injury or trauma
Stroke
Alcohol abuse
SeizuresCOMPLICATIONS
Amnesia varies in severity and scope, but even mild amnesia takes a toll on daily activities and quality of life. The syndrome can cause problems at work, at school and in social settings.

It may not be possible to recover lost memories. Some people with severe memory problems need to live in a supervised situation or extended-care facility.*TESTS AND TREATMENTS*

23/10/2023

ACUTE SINUSITIS DEFINITION
Acute sinusitis (acute rhinosinusitis) causes the cavities around your nasal passages (sinuses) to become inflamed and swollen. This interferes with drainage and causes mucus to build up.

With acute sinusitis, it may be difficult to breathe through your nose. The area around your eyes and face may feel swollen, and you may have throbbing facial pain or a headache.

Acute sinusitis is most often caused by the common cold. Other triggers include allergies, bacterial and fungal infections. Treatment of acute sinusitis depends on the cause. In most cases, home remedies are all that's needed. However, persistent sinusitis can lead to serious infections and other complications. Sinusitis that lasts more than eight weeks or keeps coming back is called chronic sinusitis.SYMPTOMS
Acute sinusitis symptoms often include:

Drainage of a thick, yellow or greenish discharge from the nose or down the back of the throat
Nasal obstruction or congestion, causing difficulty breathing through your nose
Pain, tenderness, swelling and pressure around your eyes, cheeks, nose or forehead
Reduced sense of smell and taste
Cough, which may be worse at night
Other signs and symptoms can include:

Ear pain
Headache
Aching in your upper jaw and teeth
Bad breath (halitosis)
Fatigue
FeverCAUSES
When you have sinusitis, the mucous membranes of your nose, sinuses and throat (upper respiratory tract) become inflamed. Swelling obstructs the sinus openings and prevents mucus from draining normally, causing facial pain and other sinusitis symptoms.

Blocked sinuses create a moist environment that makes it easier for infection to take hold. Sinuses that become infected and can't drain become pus filled, leading to signs and symptoms such as thick, yellow or greenish discharge and other symptoms of infection.

Acute sinusitis can be caused by:

Viral infection. Most cases of acute sinusitis are caused by the common cold.
Bacterial infection. When an upper respiratory tract infection persists longer than seven to 10 days, it's more likely to be caused by a bacterial infection than by a viral infection.
Fungal infection. You're at increased risk of a fungal infection if you have sinus abnormalities or a weakened immune system.RISK FACTORS
You may be at increased risk of getting sinusitis if you have:

Hay fever or another allergic condition that affects your sinuses
A nasal passage abnormality, such as a deviated nasal septum, nasal polyps or tumors
A medical condition such as cystic fibrosis, GERD or an immune system disorder such as immunoglobulin or antibody deficiency
Regular exposure to pollutants such as cigarette smokeLIFESTYLE AND HOME REMEDIES
Take these steps to help reduce your risk of getting acute sinusitis:

Avoid upper respiratory infections. Minimize contact with people who have colds. Wash your hands frequently with soap and water, especially before your meals.
Carefully manage your allergies. Work with your doctor to keep symptoms under control.
Avoid cigarette smoke and polluted air. To***co smoke and other pollutants can irritate and inflame your lungs and nasal passages.
Use a humidifier. If the air in your home is dry, such as it is if you have forced-air heat, adding moisture to the air may help prevent sinusitis. Be sure the humidifier stays clean and free of mold with regular, thorough cleaning.*TESTS AND TREATMENTS*

ANGINA

Angina is a term used for chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscle. Angina is a symptom of coronary artery disease. Angina is typically described as squeezing, pressure, heaviness, tightness or pain in your chest.

Angina, also called angina pectoris, can be a recurring problem or a sudden, acute health concern.

Angina is relatively common but can be hard to distinguish from other types of chest pain, such as the pain or discomfort of indigestion. If you have unexplained chest pain, seek medical attention right away.Angina in women

A woman's angina symptoms can be different from the classic angina symptoms. For example, women often experience symptoms such as nausea, shortness of breath, abdominal pain or extreme fatigue, with or without chest pain. Or a woman may feel discomfort in her neck, jaw or back or stabbing pain instead of the more typical chest pressure. These differences may lead to delays in seeking treatment.SYMPTOMS

Symptoms associated with angina include:

âś…Chest pain or discomfort
âś…Pain in your arms, neck, jaw, shoulder or back accompanying chest pain
âś…Nausea
âś…Fatigue
âś…Shortness of breath
âś…Sweating
âś…DizzinessCAUSES

Angina is caused by reduced blood flow to your heart muscle. Your blood carries oxygen, which your heart muscle needs to survive. When your heart muscle isn't getting enough oxygen, it causes a condition called ischemia.

The most common cause of reduced blood flow to your heart muscle is coronary artery disease (CAD). Your heart (coronary) arteries can become narrowed by deposits called plaques. This is called atherosclerosis.*TESTS AND TREATMENTS*

12/10/2023

Erectile dysfunction (impotence) is the inability to get and keep an er****on firm enough for s*x.

Having er****on trouble from time to time isn't necessarily a cause for concern. If erectile dysfunction is an ongoing issue, however, it can cause stress, affect your self-confidence and contribute to relationship problems. Problems getting or keeping an er****on also can be a sign of an underlying health condition that needs treatment and a risk factor for heart disease down the road.

If you're concerned about erectile dysfunction, talk to your doctor or health Consultant even if you're embarrassed. Sometimes, treating an underlying condition is enough to reverse erectile dysfunction.SYMPTOMS
Erectile dysfunction symptoms might include persistent:

✓Trouble getting an er****on
✓Trouble keeping an er****on
✓Reduced s*xual desireCAUSES

Male s*xual arousal is a complex process that involves the brain, hormones, emotions, nerves, muscles and blood vessels. Erectile dysfunction can result from a problem with any of these. Likewise, stress and mental health concerns can cause or worsen erectile dysfunction.

Sometimes a combination of physical and psychological issues causes erectile dysfunction. For instance, a minor physical condition that slows your s*xual response might cause anxiety about maintaining an er****on. The resulting anxiety can lead to or worsen erectile dysfunction.

Physical causes of erectile dysfunction
In most cases, erectile dysfunction is caused by something physical. Common causes include:

✓Heart disease
✓Clogged blood vessels (atherosclerosis)
✓High cholesterol
✓High blood pressure
✓Diabetes
✓Obesity
✓Metabolic syndrome — a condition involving increased blood pressure, high insulin levels, body fat around the waist and high cholesterol
✓Parkinson's disease
✓Multiple sclerosis
✓Peyronie's disease — development of scar tissue inside the p***s
✓Certain prescription medications
✓To***co use
✓Alcoholism and other forms of substance abuse
✓Sleep disorders
✓Treatments for prostate cancer or enlarged prostate
✓Surgeries or injuries that affect the pelvic area or spinal cordLIFESTYLE AND HOME REMEDIES

The best way to prevent erectile dysfunction is to make healthy lifestyle choices and to manage any existing health conditions. For example:

✓Work with your doctor or Health Consultant to manage diabetes, heart disease or other chronic health conditions.
✓See your doctor or health Consultant for regular checkups and medical screening tests.
✓Stop smoking, limit or avoid alcohol, and don't use illegal drugs.
✓Exercise regularly.
✓Take steps to reduce stress.
✓Get help for anxiety, depression or other mental health concerns.*TESTS AND TREATMENTS*
