HealthEight Top Causes Of Miscarriage You Need To Know by bloomstar(op): 7:27am On Feb 17, 2018
Eight top causes of miscarriage you need to know

here are are eight major causes of miscarriage you should know.

1.Chromosomal abnormality. Hands down, the single most common reason that a miscarriage occurs is some a problem with either the egg or sperm’s chromosomes during embryo formation.

While some chromosomal abnormalities are compatible with life, such as trisomy 21, the most common type of Down syndrome, other chromosomal disorders are simply incompatible with life.

2.Thyroid disorders. Whether it be hypo (too low) or hyper (too high) thyroidism, thyroid disorders can lead to problems with infertility or cause recurrent miscarriages.

The Malpani Infertility Clinic’s website explains that in cases where a woman’s thyroid function is low, her body will try to compensate by producing hormones that can actually suppress ovulation;

conversely, a thyroid that is producing too many hormones can interfere with estrogen’s ability to do its job and make the uterus unfavorable for implantation or lead to abnormal uterine bleeding.

3.Diabetes. With diabetes, it’s mostly uncontrolled diabetes that causes a miscarriage, Patients who are struggling with diabetes are encouraged to speak to their healthcare providers about ways to control their blood sugar and/or request the blood sugar blood test, A1C, to assess the extent of the diabetes.

4.Lifestyle.
Self-destructive lifestyle habits, such as drug abuse, alcohol use during pregnancy, and smoking can all lead to a miscarriage early on or later during a pregnancy.

5.Immunologic disorders. Immunological disorders are a widely-debated and somewhat controversial topic among women’s healthcare providers, primarily because there is still much to be discovered about their role in contributing to miscarriage.

However, there are certain autoimmune disorders do play a role in miscarriage, especially with recurrent miscarriages. Although the exact role of immunologic factors in miscarriage is complicated, the simplest way to understand it is that “the body just doesn’t accept the pregnancy.”

6.Physical complications. Less common, but still significant occurrences of miscarriage caused by physical problems with the mother, such as uterine abnormalities including septum or polyps, or cervical incompetency,

However, in many instances, losses as a result of a physical complication will occur in the 2nd or 3rd trimesters.

7.Blood clotting disorders. Like physical abnormalities, miscarriages that result from blood clotting disorders (such as Factor V Leiden), are more rare, but do occur. I work a lot of people up on blood clotting disorders, But they’re just not as common as the other reasons.

HealthDo You Know Excessive Alcohol Causes Cancer? See Details by bloomstar(op): 10:53am On Feb 16, 2018
Here’s How Alcohol Can Increase Your Cancer Risk
Written by Shawn Radcliffe on November 29, 2017



Drinking alcohol increases your risk of many types of cancer, whether you drink a lot or relatively little.

In a statement published Nov. 7 in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, the group points to evidence that even light drinking can increase your risk of mouth and throat cancer, a common type of esophageal cancer, and breast cancer in women.

Moderate and heavy drinking — which includes binge drinking — increase your chances of developing not just these cancers, but several others as well.

The relationship between alcohol and cancer is dose-dependent. This means the more you drink, the higher the risk.

So, what does this mean for your health… and your holiday plans?

The statement — which is based on previously published studies — comes at a time when people are drinking more alcohol.

During that time, the number of people who would be classified as having an alcohol use disorder increased by almost 50 percent.

Most also didn’t know that obesity and lack of exercise are risk factors, too.

The cancer risk due to alcohol is high enough that an earlier study estimated that 5 percent of all new cancer cases and 5 percent of all cancer deaths worldwide are due to alcohol.

So how much does alcohol increase your risk of cancer?

It varies with the type of cancer and how much you drink.

The ASCO researchers point to research showing that, compared to nondrinkers, the risk of cancer for heavy drinkers increases by the following amounts:

-Mouth and throat cancer: 5.13 times
-Esophageal squamous cell cancer: 4.95 times
-Voice box cancer: 2.65 times
-Liver cancer: 2.07 times
-Breast (female) cancer: 1.61 times
-Colon and rectum cancer: 1.44 times

This means that on average, heavy drinkers have more than a fivefold higher risk of developing mouth and throat cancer during their lifetime than do nondrinkers.

These numbers are known as relative risks — comparing the risk for one group to that for another.

Researchers defined light drinking as less than one drink per day, moderate as one to four drinks per day, and heavy as more than four drinks per day.

Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism defines a standard drink as 1.5 ounces of distilled spirits, 5 ounces of wine, or 12 ounces of regular beer.

Absolute risk is the chance that you’ll develop cancer over a certain time period, such as during the next 10 years.

Moderation in all things alcohol
Is this enough to justify giving up the occasional glass of spirit?

Or playing the odds and sticking with your nightly martini?

As the ASCO statement explains in detail, the cancer risks of alcohol are quite real.

But it’s not as clear-cut as cigarettes, where any amount of smoking is bad for you.

One of the authors of the ASCO statement told The New York Times 8that the best way to lower your risk of cancer is to drink less. And if you aren’t already a drinker, don’t start.

But this may not mean you have to give up alcohol completely.

Other research suggests that moderate alcohol drinking may lower your risk of heart disease.
But the research on alcohol and heart disease is mixed. There’s no guarantee of a benefit.

What’s clear, though, is that heavy drinking carries many risks, not just of heart disease and cancer, but also depression, anxiety, alcohol use disorder, and liver disease.

People who already have other risk factors for cancer — whether it’s a family history or obesity — may not want to throw alcohol on top of this risk pile.

But if you’re otherwise healthy, the occasional alcoholic drink might not be that bad.

There are also many other ways to reduce your risk of cancer, such as quitting smoking, exercising more, and eating a healthier diet — all of which don’t carry the risks associated with alcohol.

If you’re wondering of giving up — or cutting back on alcohol might be a good New Year’s resolution for you, talk to your doctor.

A stroke occurs when the blood supply to an area of the brain is cut off, early signs of stroke is importatnt tool. The symptoms depend upon the region of the brain that is affected by the loss of blood supply and can include changes in sensation or motor control.

For example, someone who had a mild stroke may experience temporary weakness of an arm or leg, but those with a more severe stroke may be permanently paralyzed on one side of their body or be unable to speak. If the blood supply is not quickly restored, either on its own or via medical treatment, the effects may be permanent.

Acting fast is critical if you suspect that someone may be having a stroke. Immediate treatment of a stroke can minimize long-term effects of the stroke and can even help reduce a person’s risk of death from stroke.

FAST is an acronym that can help you quickly recognize the warning signs and symptoms of stroke.

S: Speech difficulty. People having a stroke may slur their speech or have trouble speaking at all.Speech may be incomprehensible. Ask the person to repeat a simple sentence and look for any speech abnormality.
T: Time to call for help! If a person shows any of the symptoms above, even if the symptoms went away, call for help and get the person to a hospital immediately

What are other signs and symptoms of stroke in men and women?

While these are the hallmark symptoms of stroke, a stroke can cause disruption of any function of the nervous system. Symptoms of stroke typically occur on one side of the body and come on suddenly.

With a transient ischemic attack (sometimes called a mini-stroke) the symptoms appear and may go away on their own. In any case, it is essential to get the affected person to a hospital as soon as possible to enable prompt treatment.

HealthDangers Of Excessive Smoking, A Victim You Should See by bloomstar(op): 9:49am On Feb 15, 2018
A practical example of effects of smoking

Dangers of excessive smoking is easily heard both in the street and everywhere, we are warned by the ministry of health ut we pay no attention to it, here is a practical example, this man who is a chain smoker was diagnosed with cancerous tumors both on the lungs and on the oral cavity(mandibular bone).

He had two surgeries on same day, on the oral cavity and on the lungs to remove the tumors, his mandibular bone was completely removed and changed by the maxilofacial surgeons.

excessive Smoking is known as a major cause for tooth discoloration, bad breath and also systemic illness as well as lung damage.

Smoking causes most of the following

-Smoking causes tooth discolouration
-it also leads to bad breath, mouth odour
-Smoke brings dryness to the mouth, there by encouraging tooth decay
-Smoking excessively brings uncondusive atmosphere for digestive enzymes in your mouth.
-it is a big source of cancerous tumor

An example is picture below

A young man was diagnosed with poorly differentiated cacinoma of the oral cavity. Surgery was conducted, hemimandibulectomy (surgical removal of half of the mandible) and reconstruction of the jaw.

And he got this from tobacco, excessive smoking of cigarette. avoid smoking as you can.. see the operation procedure conducted..his mandible was totally removed and changed by pysicians and maxilofacail surgeons, and his lungs was also operated on to remove cancerous tumors.
