HealthWhat Causes Dark Inner Thighs And How Can You Treat And Prevent This Symptom? by xbox360(op): 5:06am On Jan 20, 2020
Overview

Dark skin on the inner thighs can be experienced by anyone, regardless of skin tone. It occurs when the skin on the inner thigh produces an abundance of melanin, a pigment that gives skin its color. This is called hyperpigmentation. The discoloration of dark inner thighs may even stretch into the bikini or groin area.
Causes

There are a number of reasons why a person may experience a darkening of the skin on the inner thighs. Some of these reasons may include:

chafing, which can occur during exercise or walking, and may cause the skin to become thin, itchy, and discolored

hormonal imbalance, particularly among women during lactation, pregnancy, or menstruation, or among those with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)

certain medications, like hormonal oral contraceptives or certain chemotherapy medications

sun exposure

dry skin

friction from tight clothing

acanthosis nigricans, a skin pigmentation disorder

diabetes mellitus

Risk factors

An obese person may be at higher risk for dark inner thighs due to skin chafing. You’re also at an increased risk if you have a hormonal imbalance or diabetes mellitus, or you take certain medications.
Home remedies

In some cases, home remedies may help lighten dark skin on your thighs.

1. Coconut oil and lemon juice

Lemons are packed with vitamin C, which may help treat hyperpigmentation. Coconut oil can serve as a moisturizer, and it may help keep your thighs soft and supple.

To make a coconut oil and lemon juice scrub:

Combine a few tablespoons of coconut oil with the juice of half a lemon.

Rub the mixture into the affected area and massage for 10 minutes or longer.

Wash the area clean.

Research suggests that certain formulations containing vitamin C may be more effective than others, so this method may not prove to be effective for you.

2. Sugar scrub

Sugar can help exfoliate the skin. Exfoliating the area may help if the dark skin is caused by a buildup of dead skin.

Combine fresh lemon juice, a teaspoon of sugar, and a tablespoon of honey.

Gently scrub the mixture into the inner thighs.

Rinse the area to remove the scrub.

Find premade sugar scrubs.

3. Oatmeal yogurt scrub

Oatmeal can be usedTrusted Source to treat eczema and other inflammatory skin conditions. It can also act as an exfoliant, and it may be gentler than sugar. Yogurt contains lactic acid, which may improve skin health. Yogurt may have other benefitsTrusted Source for the skin when used topically or orally, but research is limited.

To create your own oatmeal scrub:

Make a paste with equal parts oatmeal and plain yogurt.

Apply the paste to the darkened area of skin, and gently scrub.

Wash the paste off of your leg.

4. Baking soda and water paste

Baking soda may help lighten and exfoliate your skin, but it should be used with caution. That’s because baking soda may be too harsh for your skin. It could irritate your skin and worsen any skin conditions.

If you want to try using a baking soda scrub:

Make a paste of equal parts baking soda and water.

Apply a thin layer to the inner thighs, like you would a face or body mask.

Leave it on for at least 15 minutes, and then rinse off.

5. Aloe vera

Aloe vera gel or an aloe vera-based product can soothe irritated, chafed skin. Aloe contains aloin, which shows potentialTrusted Source as a skin lightener. Apply like a lotion, and allow the product to soak in to your skin. You don’t need to rinse it off after applying.

Get aloe vera.

6. Potato rub

Rubbing potatoes on your skin is a folk remedy for dark spots on the skin. It’s believed that catecholase, an enzyme in potatoes, can lighten skin. To try this remedy:

Slice a potato.

Rub a potato slice over the affected area for 15 minutes or longer.

Gently wash the area.

Over-the-counter (OTC) treatments

Many OTC treatments claim to lighten the skin. Some are made from natural ingredients, which do show some promise in their ability to reduce pigmentation. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, these four ingredients may work to lighten skin and don’t carry much risk of allergic reaction:

soy

niacinamide

ellagic acid

lignin peroxidase

The following ingredients are popular in OTC treatments and have shownTrusted Sourcepotential to lighten skin, but may cause allergic reaction in some:

arbutin

kojic acid

licorice

Talk to a dermatologist before using an OTC product for skin lightening. They can evaluate the underlying cause and help you choose an appropriate product.

I have a mini poultry and for months I noticed eggs are being tampered with. I suspected a snake but I couldn't find traces until yesterday while trying to relocate some, I found this snake close to one of my chickens laying eggs. It was the culprit. It has killed several of my chickens and I'm happy it met its waterloo.

What kind of snake is this and how do I prevent its reoccurrence?

What baffles me is my poultry is surrounded by houses people live in 247. I wonder where this one came From.

The center of gravity, also known as the Gräfenberg Spot, is a bean-shaped area of the vagina. A significant number of females report that it is an erogenous zone, which can lead to strong sexual arousal when stimulated, resulting in powerful orgasms and female ejaculation

Usually, the depth of the vagina is between 3 and 7 inches. The vagina is an organ that is designed to accommodate both childbirth and sexual activity. However, if a woman is experiencing pain during sex due to what she perceives as a shallow vagina, she should talk to her doctor.

FamilySex During Pregnancy, Everything You Need To Know by xbox360(op): 8:17am On Jan 14, 2020
Sex in
pregnancy

Unless your doctor tells
you otherwise, it is perfectly safe
for you to have sex throughout your pregnancy.
However, towards the expected birth date, your
size may make many positions uncomfortable for
you.

Penetration may be easiest if you lie on your
side and your partner enters from behind. Oral
sex and mutual masturbation should cause no
problems. Some women fear that sexual activity
or orgasm may trigger off labor but sex cannot
induce labor unless the baby is due anyway

when the prostaglandin present in the man's
semen may cause it to start.

The sex drive of some

women decreases during the first
trimester of pregnancy. This may be due to
tiredness and nausea, or to a hidden belief that it
is 'not right' for a mother to enjoy sex. The
problem will usually disappear of its own accord.

In some women, the sex drive actually increases
during the middle three months (the second
trimester) of pregnancy, and some claim that
their lovemaking is more satisfying than ever
before. This may be because the high level of
circulating hormones means that a woman can
be stimulated more easily and reach a pitch of
sexual excitement more quickly than when not
pregnant.

A pregnant woman's sexual organs
breasts, nipples and genitals - are especially
highly developed, which probably increases
sexual awareness.

Finally, there is of course
complete freedom from the worry of getting
another sex tutorial pregnant, which allows a deeper level of 'letting
go'.
Some women and their
partners worry that sex may harm
the unborn child, but such fears are groundless.

The fetus is protected from infection by the plug
of mucus at the neck of the womb. In rare cases,
infection can occur, but this is usually due to lack
of normal hygiene precautions or having sex with
several different partners. The baby is also
protected against being squashed by the
amniotic fluid in which it floats in the womb. Avoid
over-athletic sex because it will be uncomfortable
for you, but don't worry about hurting the baby.

Sex should not cause a miscarriage in a normal,
healthy pregnancy.
You can resume sex after
childbirth as soon as it is comfortable to do so.
Women who have had an episiotomy (in which
the perineurn is cut to facilitate birth), will
probably feel sore for at least three weeks. When
you feel confident that your wound has healed,
begin to re-establish your sex life, taking it slowly
and gently and using a lubricating jelly if
necessary to prevent scar tissue causing
discomfort or pain. It is important to establish
sexual contact with your partner as soon as you
can, as you will both need to get close again.

If
you still feel sore, remember there are other ways
of giving and receiving affection. Don't let your
partner feel that you are lavishing all your care
and attention on your baby and excluding him
from your love.

Bro, Firstly when you need serious and mature advice it's always better to post in the family section, here is full jokers and kids (no offense)

It seems you are an only child, if you are, then I'm happy to announce to you, you can't get "rid" of her, She is your first wife, she is always going to be in your business as long you are closeby. My friend who is also an only child didn't even allow the mom to know his house even when they are in the same city, though he goes home to visit every weekend. Maybe you should adopt this means too, it seems unfair but if you REALLY want that privacy then you should.

I know you are looking out for her happiness, I can't even imagine how lonely it can get, it also good she is devoted to the church to at least occupy her time.

The best place for someone like her is nowhere except where she spends most her time, the church but I'm sure she doesn't just interest. Talk to her pastor about your worry and concern, the pastor will be in the best position to help.

Finally , please don't be too far away from her in the name of "hustle and privacy"
Oga for God's sake just leave your mum , she will be okay soon

The kind men in Naija? Hmm just be very careful

The center of gravity is named after its discoverer, Ernst
Grafenberg. While many women still doubt its
existence, others claim that stimulating a place
about 5cm/2 inches inside the vagina towards the
front of the body gives them intense pleasure.
The center of gravity is said to be the female equivalent of
the male prostate gland, which is situated about
5cm/2 inches up the rectum towards the front of
the body. Stimulation of both these places can
lead to orgasm in some cases. Some women
have even found that they ejaculate a fluid if they
have an orgasm by stimulation of the center of gravity, and
researchers in Canada and the United States
claim that the composition of the fluid is
remarkably similar to the secretion of the prostate
gland.
How do you find the center of gravity?
If you doubt the existence of the center of gravity, you can
try to find it yourself. The easiest way to reach it
is with your own or your partner's finger, but there
are also positions for intercourse in which the
penis stimulates the sensitive area. Rear-entry is
best, particularly with the man on top and a pillow
beneath your hips, so that the penis presses
against the front wall of the vagina.

SportsEuropean Handicap Betting Explained by xbox360(op): 7:12pm On Jan 04, 2020
What is European Handicap (EH)

In the betting world very often there could be a significant difference in the performance of two teams that are facing each other. Because of many different reasons (many players injured, current financial situation or just better quality of the players) one team can be a huge favorite and therefore odds for this team will be really low. Punters usually don't like to bet on such events, because of the big investment they have to make in order to have some decent profit and respectively the huge risk that comes with the big investment.

Therefore bookmakers came up with a way to attract punters to play on these games and it is called a handicap. The European Handicap (EH) basically gives to one team (or player in single sports) advantage before the event has even started. Thus the match starts more even and the odds respectively are more competitive for the two teams (players).

 

European Handicap in details

At first, European Handicap might seem confusing and hard to understand, but once you see the logic behind it, it is very simple to use and therefore one of the most popular ways for punters to bet.

So let's take a more detailed look into European Handicap.

Let's take for example a match between Arsenal and Qarabag from the Europa League. Arsenal is the clear favorite in this match and the odds respectively are not attractive for any bettor. Therefore the bookmakers offer European Handicap to give an advantage to the underdog (+1,+2, etc.) and disadvantage to the “stronger” team (-1,-2, etc.). If you get European Handicap of +2 for the underdog, this means that the they will start with the advantage of 2 goals. If you take European Handicap -2 for the favorite they will start the match with the disadvantage of 2 goals.

So the odds with European Handicap would look something like this:

Arsenal (-2) @2.60

Draw (+2) @4.00

Qarabag (+2) @1.99

 

When is your bet winning?

If we take the same example the outcomes from the match will be as follow:

If you bet on Arsenal -2 your bet will be winning in case Arsenal won by 3 goals or more

If you bet on Draw +2 your bet will be winning if Qarabag loose by exactly 2 goals

If you bet on Qarabag +2 your bet will be winning in case they win the match, gets in a draw or loses by 1 goal

 

Difference between European Handicap and Asian Handicap

There are a couple of significant differences between European Handicap and Asian Handicap (AH). In EH you have a draw option which is not the case with AH. This is the reason it is also called 3-way betting – you can choose between three possible bets.

Another significant difference is that EH is always with integer numbers such as -1, -2, -3, etc. This can be directly matched with the number of goals in a match and makes it easier to understand, especially for newbies in the betting world. In AH you will see advantage or disadvantage of 0.25, 0.50, 1.25, 1.50, etc. You can find detailed explanation of Asian Handicap here.

 

Which sports can be bet on with European Handicap

Surely football is the most popular sport to play with EH, but not the only one. European Handicap is a great way for bookies to even the strength of two teams/ players in many sports. The essential rules in every sport are the same. For example, in basketball, a team is given an advantage or disadvantage with the number of points. You can find European Handicap in tennis as well, where one of the players has advantage or disadvantage in games and sometimes even in sets. Other sports you will see European Handicap for are volleyball, handball, ice-hockey and sometimes even baseball and American football.
