Hello Loisemm,injection is far effective cos it is intravenous and it goes straight to the blood to kill the infection. That is what finalize my infection thereafter started adding Jik to my bathing water as correcting advices by my doctor through God's intervention. since last two years till date infections is out of my system.

I think you see more of drug suggestions because most people prefer taking drugs to Injections and also it's cheaper to get and save you the stress of all the protocols b4 taking injections.
For me I prefer Injection because I hate drugs. When I have Malaria, it's Injections st8 and before u know, I'm much better. The effect is faster since it gets to the bloodstream quicker.
Do go ahead with the Injections. I'm sure it will yield faster and better results.

Loisemm:
Pls o, I have a question.

My question is- is this injection method not better n more effective?

Cotton is absorbent while the other regular panties materials aren't
Cotton panties mostly have the texture of those adult male white singlets also the texture of regular Polo tops

These are the description that comes to mind. Hope it helps.

The endometrial plate is thickened.

There is a hypoechoic round mass measuring (2.5 x 3.2)cm noted at the posterior segment of the uterine wall.

Both adnexal are sonographically normal. No focal ovarian cyst or mass sighted.

Re: Trying To Conceive A Child? TTC by 4realwoman: 4:44pm On Sep 08, 2016
Just thought to share dis from today's Nigerian Tribune news paper on the benefits of WALNUT.

OKAY FOR THOSE THAT CANNOT SEE THE PIX VERY WELL

Read below as copied from Nigeria Tribune's site

[b]AFRICAN WALNUT: THE HEAL-ALL YOU MUST EAT

September 08, 2016 / : Vera Onana

For the younger generation, who may often seek validation from social media while holding the 21st century in their ‘e-palms’, African walnut may be relegated to the bottom of fruit options as some weird looking black fruit, only the old should relish. Ironically, the innumerable health benefits of this seemingly not so trendy and tasty fruit, surpasses all the likes one could ever get on social media.

Two years ago, a duo of teenagers developed a natural cure for halitosis, otherwise known as bad breath. The active ingredient of both their products (gum and mouthwash) was the walnut. That discovery, won Eveshorhema Sophia Samuel-Alli and Ibukunoluwa Ruth Oladeinde of Doregos Private Academy, Ipaja, Lagos, a Life Science Award of $1,000 in the Medicine and Health Science category, courtesy, Sigma Xi Scientific Research Society that year.

Enveloped in a thick black wall, the African Walnut, which has a creamy inner colour and a bitter after taste, has been described by experts as a wonder fruit, capable of curing a litany of diseases. The African walnut, locally called (Asala or Awusa in Yoruba; Ukpa in Igbo; and Okhue or Okwe in Edo) belongs to the botanical family Euphorbiaceae and is a highly versatile nut. Asides from its medicine and health uses, it serves a number of other uses such as furniture and dye making.

Last year, a research paper published in the Journal of Global Biosciences, itemized the many benefits of African walnut following the findings from a research work on the fruit titled “Studies on the Phytochemical and Nutritional properties of Tetracarpidium conophorum (black walnut) seeds.”

Based on the findings of researchers, Ojobor Chijioke, Anosike Chioma, both from the Department of Biochemistry, University of Nigeria, Nsukka and Ani Collins of the Department of Biological Sciences, University of Agriculture, Makurdi, the African walnut contains phytochemicals like alkaloid, saponins, glycoside and reducing sugar in high abundance. The study also showed that contained in the African walnut was also moderate amounts of soluble carbohydrate. However, other phytochemicals such as flavonoid and tannins were observed in trace amounts while hydrogen cyanide and terpenoid were not detected in the walnut samples.

According to the researchers, “phytochemicals are biologically active compounds, which contribute significantly to protection against degenerative diseases.” Flavonoids are known to have protective effects including anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidants, antiviral, and anti-carcinogenic properties.

“The presence of tannins in the walnut sample suggest that it could be used for healing of haemorrhoids and varicose ulcers in herbal medicine.”

Alkaloids are the most effective plant substance used therapeutically as analgesic, antimicrobial and bacterial properties. “This may probably be the reason walnut is believed to stop asthma (not acute asthma) and also a constipation cure for elderly.”

Also, the findings indicated that the high amount of saponins in the walnut samples points to the fact that walnut has a cytotoxic effect such as permealisation of the intestine. The presence of saponin, which gives the plant its bitter taste, has relationship with sex hormones like oxytocin which is involved in controlling the onset of labour in women and the subsequent release of milk.

While carrying out the vitamin analyses of the fruit, the researchers observed the presence of vitamins A, C and E in appreciable amounts and other vitamins like D, K, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B9 and B12, were found in trace amounts. They discussed that the presence of such vitamins in walnut indicates that it can be used in the treatment of skin conditions, including eczema, pruritus, psoriasis and parasitic skin conditions. Also, it can be useful vitamin in the treatment of common cold and prostate cancer. The report also indicates that walnut could be used in treatment of indigestion, constipation and diarrhea. The exceptionally high content of vitamin E in walnut supports its use in Southern Nigeria ethno-medicine as a male fertility agent.

Based on the book, Medicinal Plants of Nigeria- South West Nigeria Volume 1, compiled and published by Nigeria Natural Medicine Development Agency (NNMDA), here are several other reasons why walnuts must be a part of every Nigerian’s diet.

Fertility purposes

In local ethnomedicine, walnuts are used as a male fertility agent; the leaves are used to improve fertility in male and chewing the walnut improves sperm count. Eating around two handfuls of walnuts a day over a period of 12weeks will improve sperm health in young men. Walnut seeds are used to treat uterine fibroids and chewing walnuts helps prevent miscarriage.

For treatment of pain

The leaf juice of the African walnut is considered a headache cure in southern Nigeria and is used to improve and regulate menstrual flow. The leaf juice is drunk to mitigate prolonged and /or constant hiccups.

Cardiovascular benefits

African walnut helps prevent heart disease and is recommended for lowering cholesterol. Walnuts are rich in compounds such as omega 3 essential fatty acids that reduce hardening of the arteries, prevent erratic heart rhythms and keep them flexible. Walnuts also contain relatively high levels of L-arginine, an essential amino acid that is converted into nitric oxide, a chemical that helps to keep the inner walls of blood vessels smooth and allows blood vessels to relax.

Anti ageing benefits

African walnuts contain numerous antioxidants like vitamin E, melatonin, manganese, selenium, ellagic acid and about 16 different polyphenols. All these elements are known to prevent cellular damage; hence they help in the reduction of age-related diseases.

Cancer prevention

African walnuts contain multiple ingredients; omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and phytosterols that, individually, have been shown to slow cancer growth.[/b]

Fertility and being overweight (PART 1)

If you’re trying to get pregnant, or intend to start trying,
know that being overweight, especially significantly so can
affect your chances of conceiving and having a healthy baby.
If you are overweight and planning to get pregnant in the next
year or few years, you might commit to a healthy eating and
regular exercise plan. Losing even a few kilos can make a difference.
The father’s weight can also affect your chances of getting pregnant.

How can I tell if I’m ‘overweight’ or ‘obese’?
One common measure of whether a person is ‘overweight’ or ‘obese’
is the body mass index or BMI. You calculate your BMI by dividing
your weight in kilograms by the square of your height in metres.
The Better Health Channel has a BMI calculator and further information
about BMI. A healthy BMI is considered to be between 18.5 and 24.9.
Having a BMI between 25 and 29.9 is considered ‘overweight’ and a
BMI over 30 is considered ‘obese’.

How can I lose weight?
With a healthy eating plan and regular exercise, you’ll be on your way
to a healthy weight. View our healthy weight fact sheet for some tips on
how to LiveLighter.

The Dieticians Association of Australia website has some excellent
information about creating your own healthy diet plan. You can also visit
the Australian Government’s Healthy Weight website for more information on
a ‘balanced diet’ and guidelines for how much exercise you need to do to both
lose weight and maintain a healthy weight.

Being underweight and fertility

Being underweight can also reduce a woman’s fertility. It can cause hormone
imbalances that affect ovulation and therefore a woman’s chance of getting
pregnant. Compared to healthy weight women, underweight women are more than
twice as likely to take more than a year to get pregnant. Having a BMI under
18.5 is considered ‘underweight’.

My cycle is always 26 days but on @some occasions, 25 days. The last pelvic scan I did, the follicle was seen around day 12. So I'm wondering if the scan is correct
Re: Trying To Conceive A Child? TTC by mommatriplets: 8:03am On Sep 09, 2016
@fruitful home, its likely a follicle that didnt ripen, and thus formed a cyst.
just that tvs is expensive, if not it would be nice tracking every month, that way one can b sure of ovulation, especially for those with unexplained infertility.
cheapest place i have seen is 4k/scan in abuja, and one needs abt 3 or 4 scans every month!.
another angle might b u may be amongst those who ovulate during menses, to cover that angle, its best u bd today/2moro till af comes and if posible 2nd day of af, too bad most place might not want to track for u while af is around, it would have been nice to know the fate of that cycst.

also i would suggest you use guifei bao after af to drain the cyst if indeed twas a cyst.
the lab recorded it as cyst abi?, not graffian follicle?

Good morning mamas. for those battling with hormonal imbalance, high prolactin... . use one or two packs of Fohow singing oral to detoxify then use Fohow sea weed calcium, Ares capsules, guifei bao, if you can afford Fohow oral liquid,good.
I also made mention of men using guifei bao for infection and weak erection. for weak erection remove the net of the guifei bao, place it on the naval and seal with plaster, leave it for two days then remove while for infection same procedure but to be placed at the opening of the penis and removed 24 hours. you can try it, no side effect but immediate results. thank you for reading. do have a nice day. wish you all baby dust
