Every 10 minutes, 12 hysterectomies are performed in the United States. According to a report published by Obstetrics and Gynecology, 9 of them probably didn't meet the guidelines set out by the American College of Obstetricians & Gynecologists for hysterectomy. * ~600,000 hysterectomies performed annually in the United States (~170,000 - ~300,000 due to uterine fibroids) * Over 5 billion dollars spent annually on hysterectomies (medical expense of procedures only) * Average time off from work to recover from a hysterectomy is 6 weeks (~144 million lost work hours) * ~60% of all women undergoing hysterectomy have their ovaries removed (castration) * Over 5 billion dollars spent on hormone replacement therapy annually * 37% of all women undergo hysterectomy by age 60 * Myomectomy is performed less than 40,000 times a year in the U.S. * Over 25,000 uterine artery embolizations have been performed worldwide since 1996. * For every 10,000 hysterectomies performed, 11 women die. (Approximately 660 women die each year in the United States from complications of hysterectomy.) Possibly as many as 80% of all women have uterine fibroids. While the majority usually have no symptoms, 1 in 4 end up with symptoms severe enough to require treatment. http://www.nuff.org/health_statistics.htm wooooow! God save women. |

Current statistics show that African-American women are three to five times more likely to develop fibroids than women of other racial groups[1]. Women who are overweight or obese for their height based on body mass index are also at a slightly elevated risk for developing fibroids as compared to women who are an average weight for their height. Research shows that women who have given birth are also at lower risk for developing uterine fibroids. However, because researchers don't know what causes fibroids, it is difficult to decipher all the risk factors. http://nwhn.org/fibroids obesity? |

Dr. 'Malik: Sad. Why should a lady's health be at risk for late marriage/pregnancy? and the society is not helping matters with the amount of money spent for marriage, and the stigma on having a child outside wedlock. If the ladies r aware of this, then they should stand up to protect their health. any other things that can reduce the chances of having fibroid? maybe diet or exercise? and the dr. was saying something about early detection and treatment. anyone with the statistics of those affected with fibroid in nigeria and the world? |

Blendy77: Late marriage/pregnancy is not the only cause. Genetics is also another factor. If it runs in ur family like ur mum had it, there's probability that u might have it. I have friends who discovered they had massive fibroids in their early 20s and had to operate it. I also have aunties in their 40s who have never been pregnant and they don't have fibroid so apart from age, hereditary plays a major role. genetics r there things those that r genetically prone can do to reduce their chances of having it? maybe diet or exercise. and is surgery the best solution for those that have it or are there herbs that dissolve it? |

Family / Marriage: How To Communicate Better by takeprofit: 7:52am On May 31, 2013 |
Getting Touchy Feely with Your Partner by Amy Waterman According to Howard Markman, Ph.D., professor of psychology and head of the Center for Marital and Family Studies at the University of Denver, "The quality of the couple's communication before marriage is one of the best predictors of future marital success." It's not the differences in opinions and preferences that matter; what matters is how those differences are dealt with and resolved. This requires strong communication skills, skills that few couples develop before it's too late. Once a marriage has broken down, neither partner feels inclined to communicate or open up to the other person. Markman's solution is to teach constructive arguing techniques before a couple marries, but that doesn't help the millions of couples out there with advanced marital problems. Are You a Good Communicator? If, as Markman claims, 30% to 50% of couples are mutually abusive, or respond to verbal or emotional abuse with like abuse, then it's little wonder that so many marriages are dysfunctional. Do you have any negative communication patterns or attitudes? Check any that fit you from the list below. - I act defensively when my spouse brings up any criticism of me or our marriage. - I always have to be right, - I always talk about the negative side of things; it's more realistic. - I avoid conflict by turning off emotionally. - I blame my spouse if it is his or her fault. - I bring up the past in arguments. - I criticize my spouse in front of others. - I don't ask for what I want directly. If my spouse loved me, he or she would read my mind. - I don't believe that I have to do everything I promise to do. - I don't have to be respectful to my spouse. We're married, so we can treat each other as we like. - I don't share everything with my spouse and keep my feelings to myself. - I don't tell my spouse everything. Secrets are okay. - I find it difficult to say, "I'm sorry." - I find it hard to wait to speak until my spouse has finished talking. - I let conflicts last for days or sometimes months. - I mock or ridicule my spouse. - I never forget anything my spouse has done to me. - I often find myself raising my voice when I disagree with my spouse. - I often talk over my spouse. - I resent my spouse for comments that he or she has made in the past. - I tease my spouse in ways that my spouse finds upsetting. - I want to win every argument, not reach a solution. - I'm afraid that sharing my most personal thoughts with my spouse will allow him or her to abuse them (such as by ridiculing me or by sharing them with others). - If my spouse misinterprets what I said, I get angry. - If something that my spouse does bothers me, we have an argument about it. - My attention often wanders when my spouse is talking to me. - My spouse is too sensitive to what I say. - When I don't feel like talking about something, I end up getting angry. - When my spouse doesn't know anything about a topic, I let him or her know it. - When we have an argument, I often end up yelling, crying, or storming out of the house. It is hard to create an environment of positive, loving communication when you've never experienced that kind of environment yourself. People who grew up in dysfunctional families with negative communication patterns often find themselves falling into those same behaviors themselves when they get married. Nevertheless, bad communication can destroy a marriage. If you can... - Replace criticism with praise, - Replace accusations with attempts at understanding, - Replace talking with listening, - Replace defensiveness with openness, and - Replace silence with sharing, ...you'll be amazed at the difference it makes in your marriage. Getting Your Spouse to Open Up Again Often, both partners in a marriage want to be perceived as "tough." They don't want to give in first. They want to show their partner that they don't need him or her. As a result, the communication gap grows wider. Neither person will confess what it is that is worrying them. Mistrust fills the gaps created by silence. Soon, differences feel irreconcilable. They aren't. If you want to get your spouse to open up and break the silence barrier, there are a few things you need to do. Often, the reason that your spouse isn't talking is because he or she doesn't want to create conflict by confessing their feelings. We all have negative feelings about our spouse or our relationships from time to time. In many marriages, partners zip their lip and say nothing, repressing their feelings until resentment seeps through. In other marriages, partners react angrily towards their spouse and express their feelings through criticism and verbal abuse. Neither option makes for a healthy marriage. Even if your spouse isn't saying anything to you, chances are that he or she has a lot to say. It's just that your spouse doesn't know how to bring it up, is afraid of your reaction, or doesn't think it is worth the effort to share with you. You can get your spouse to open up to you again by creating an environment in which he or she feels comfortable talking. Tactics not to try include: - Demanding that your spouse tell you what's wrong or why they won't talk. - Accusing your partner of giving you the silent treatment. - Getting angry at them for not contributing their part to the conversation. - Feeling resentful that they're making life difficult for you. Instead, what you need to do is: 1. Practice your own listening skills. Instead of filling in the silences with chatter, allow those silences to remain. Often, one spouse compensates for another's lack of speech by talking too much. Your partner may feel that you never give him or her a chance to speak because you're always talking. 2. Cultivate an attitude of non-judgmental acceptance. This means that you unconditionally love and accept your partner, no matter what he or she says. If you often respond defensively or critically when your partner shares his or her thoughts and feelings, you are actually punishing your partner for opening up to you. If your partner tries to open up, acknowledge his or her comments to show that you are listening, but refrain from adding your own opinion until you've heard everything that he or she has to say. Sometimes, we just need to be heard, and it feels better knowing that our partner has listened to us all the way through without criticizing or condemning us. 3. Learn how to apologize and mean it. One apology, meant sincerely, goes a long way. When your partner shares a concern or problem that he or she is having with your marriage, don't resort to an angry retort. Listen carefully, without criticism or a knee-jerk self-defense. If you are too upset to think clearly, tell your partner that you appreciate hearing about his or her concern, but that you need time to think it over. If you come tothe conclusion that what your partner has told you has some truth in it, apologize clearly and directly. Instead of muttering, "I'm sorry," look at your partner in the eyes and tell him or her, "I am sorry for X. I am sorry for having made you feel like you did." By telling him or her in your own words what you're sorry for - in other words, what you did or said that made your partner feel hurt - you show your partner that you really do understand. 4. Making opening up to one another a positive experience. It may sound wishy-washy or fuzzy, but verbally thanking one another for sharing thoughts and feelings is valuable positive reinforcement. A hug after a difficult conversation can make all the difference. It doesn't matter if you agree or disagree with your partner; what matters is that you show your partner that you really do care about his or her feelings and opinions. Every time your partner shares something, no matter how little, express your gratitude. Tell your partner, "I'm glad I know that you like that/feel that way/believe that. I like knowing more about you. It makes me feel closer to you." How to Argue Most couples are exceedingly poor at resolving conflicts. In my book, Save My Marriage Today, I give you a number of techniques designed to teach you healthier conflict resolution. Today, I'll just outline the most basic ground-rules for arguments. Discuss these with your spouse and agree on them together. 1. Abuse and physical violence will not be tolerated. If things get too hot, take a break or take a walk. 2. Avoid assigning blame. Instead, talk about how your partner's actions made you feel. 3. Be honest. Don't argue about one thing if something else is bothering you. 4. Don't take things personally. When someone is upset, they can say or do things that make it worse. 5. Focus on resolving the issue--not winning the argument. Think negotiation, not competition. 6. If your spouse hasn't understood your motives or misunderstood what you said, don't get angry. Explain yourself. 7. No bringing up hurtful events from the past. Stay in the present. 8. No going to sleep on an argument. 9. No name-calling. 10. Once an argument is resolved, forgive and forget. The Silent Poison: Resentment When hurt piles upon hurt, it is easy to feel as you and your spouse are in a competition where the more you can hurt the other person, the more points you get. This is a dangerous and deadly way to think of conflicts. As your marriage continues to crumble, you'll begin to feel more comfortable thinking about your spouse in terms of resentment, blame, and disappointment rather than in terms of love, forgiveness, and teamwork. Every negative feeling that you have about your spouse builds and builds, even if you don't act out on those feelings. Unless you do something about those negative feelings, you will find yourself becoming more and more resentful of your spouse and his or her ability to make your life unpleasant. There are several things you can do. I suggest consciously counteracting every negative feeling with positive acts of love, affection, and respect. You should also learn how to talk to your partner about your feelings in a neutral, non-accusatory, calm way. This is extraordinarily difficult and will take a long time to master. Negative feelings expressed in anger or as a knee-jerk reaction grow and become worse. If you can learn to express your negative feelings neutrally with the express purpose of finding some way to resolve them, you may find that they dissipate with the mere act of sharing them. There's Much More to Learn In this lesson, you've learned about the importance of communication and some danger zones to avoid.

Family / Marriage Relationship: Five Keys To Effective Communication by takeprofit: 3:12am On May 28, 2013 |
Marriage Relationship: Five Keys To Effective Communication By Christopher UI Ogholoh The importance of effective communication in marriage need not be overstressed. Love, money and other 'goodies' purported to make a successful marriage will only work if effectively communicated. Some people say money answers all things, others say love is everything, but I have observed from theories and practice that effective communication is the key. Join me on this journey to discover five communication skills that will make your union a success. 1. Choose The Right Words Messages are better transmitted in words. To effectively promote the desired love, unity and intimacy in a relationship the spouse must learn to choose words that are seasoned with respect, love and submission. The right words used at the right time will douse doubt, fear and wrong judgement. Let the wife's use words that express her loyalty and boost the man's ego. Husbands must not choose words that will hurt and disrespect his wife. 2. Avoid Assumptions Most partners in relationships always presume some things. This can be very harmful to harmonious marriage. For example, Adam in the bible, presume Eve ought to know God's mind about the tree of good and evil in the garden of Eden. Hence, he did not bother to enlighten her about the implications of eating of it. The devil cashed in on it to deceive her. If Adam did not presume, Eve would have known the right thing to do. This same thing is common in many marriage relationships. You know this through some common utterances like: 'she ought to know... At her age' and so on. Use straight clear words. Avoid the use of parables because your spouse might not be able to interpret your intentions accurately. Also, it is better for the hearer to ask questions about issues that are not clear than to do the wrong thing. 3. Choose the Right Time To Speak ''To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven... A time to rend, and a time to hate; a time to keep silence, a time to speak'' (Ecclesiastes3:1-10). There is the need to know your spouse's mood and temperament so as to be able to know when and how best to discuss some critical issues. There are issues for bedtime; there are issues for dining time; and there are issues for special lunch hours. No matter how overwhelming the matter might be, learn to hold in until the right time. What should be uppermost is not an emotion but a peaceful relationship. 4. Learn To Listen Well When The Other Is Talking I support the popular saying which says ''when two people are talking nobody is talking''. Communication, being a two-way thing, requires the cooperation between the speaker and the audience. Therefore,it is wise for one to listen attentively to the other in a relationship so as to be able to pass sound judgement, make good decisions and give accurate feedback. 5. Be Open And Truthful Truthfulness and openness to each other in a marriage relationship can heal any wounds. They must be sincere and honest in their communications so that they can build confidence and trust in the relationship. Finally, communication is an art that must be learned and internalized by both partners if they are to get the best in their marriage. Here is a Free ebook from my friends Andrew and Amy.
