A person who suffers from hemorrhoids knows how painful and embarrassing this condition is. We can blame so many things that cause hemorrhoids like food items that result in hard stools as well as obesity and lifting of heavy stuff also results in prolapse of the blood vessels.

If the natural and home remedies such as high intake of fiber, high intake of fluids do not respond then it's time to seek the help of a medical health practitioner. Majority of the hemorrhoids sufferer prefer treating it with rubber band method.

There can be other reasons that can cause hemorrhoids such as pregnancy, constipation, diarrhea as well as aging. During pregnancy the occurrence of hemorrhoid is quite common. Whether these hemorrhoids are external or internal ones the use of banding method works for both.

The Procedure of Hemorrhoid Banding
In this procedure of hemorrhoid banding the flow of blood to the hemorrhoids is stopped by simply tying it with the rubber ban. As a result of it the hemorrhoid dies off. This method is great for treating the internal hemorrhoids. At the initial stage after the procedure a patient feels mild pain and it take a week or so to recover from it. In some cases the procedure is performed as inpatient surgery using anesthesia. This is mostly the case when the treatment of more than hemorrhoids needs to be done simultaneously. Usually the banding method is carried out in doctor's office on outpatient basis. The application of local anesthesia depends solely on requirement.

It's not a complicated process as it just about rubber band placement around the hemorrhoid for stopping the blood flow and so the hemorrhoids die as a result. If there are many hemorrhoids that need to be treated then it is best to go through several banding procedures. In this way one can avoid the risks that are linked with full anesthesia.

All About Hemorrhoid Banding Post Surgery Symptoms
It does not take long to recover after a rubber band ligation procedure but the relapse can take place. The pain after the surgery can be mild to moderate which can last for few days to a week. Bleeding can also occur after surgery for more than ten days.

It is obvious that patients want to know the intensity of pain after the ligation of the hemorrhoids. Actually the pain level may vary from case to case.

The side effects include mild pain as well as urge to make bowel movement. Bed rest is the best option for recovery after the surgery and to get rid of pain the over-the-counter painkillers work the best.

Keep in mind that at early stage during the recovery stage of the procedure the need to make frequent bowel movements is quite common. In some cases the gas can also occur frequently. At this stage, it is critical for the sufferer to increase fiber and fluid intake so that constipation can be prevented. It is important to prevent constipation so that hemorrhoids do not occur. As soon as the hemorrhoids die the uncomfortable feeling decreases and the patients can get on with their normal routine but lifting of heavy load must be avoided. In case of severe pain, fever, urinary failure and bleeding the sufferer must discuss it with a doctor.

This shows that the hemorrhoid banding has become complicated. It is best to see the doctor after few days of the procedure to monitor the condition.

Techniques of Hemorrhoid Removal
For hemorrhoid removal the banding is one of the best techniques. Some doctors prefer other technique to remove hemorrhoids such as by excision of the hemorrhoid through surgical or chemical method. Some doctors support and recommend banding because it is simple and the success rate is high. It is better to discuss with the doctor to know which technique is better for your case to remove the hemorrhoids.

The Cost of Hemorrhoid Banding
This procedure costs around $500 to $1500 as it depends on how many bands the doctor us using. This shows that the method of hemorrhoid banding is not only cheap but also effective. The treatment of Hemorrhoid is covered by the majority of insurance plans.

Other Alternatives
If all this seems a little too daunting for you. And if you are not able to pay the surgical costs associated, there are alternatives worth investigating. One of these is Venapro, which seems to work for many individuals. For more advice and some inspiring Venapro Reviews visit this website for and alternative hemorrhoid treatment- Venapro Advisor.

If you happen to have not experienced your monthly menstrual cycle for the last 12 months, chances are you have already gone through to the menopause zone. Once your hormonal imbalance has set in, it sets off a series of events that ultimately lead to your ovaries no longer able to produce egg cells. Here are the top ten causes of early menopause in women:

  1. Everyday unmanaged stress – This results in the female body having higher levels of cortisol. This can subsequently do a real number on a woman’s immune system which eventually leads to hormonal imbalance as well as symptoms that signify adrenal fatigue.
2.     Obesity – Being obese can curb ovarian hormone production.

3.     Poor diets – Food that is high in processed ingredients, vegetables that have been grown with the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides contributes to the female body having hormonal imbalance. This then leads to early menopause.

4.     Autoimmune disorders – This can cause one’s immune system to eliminate the ovarian tissues responsible for the production of hormones.

5.     Estrogen dominance – This can be the result of long term oral contraceptive usage and steroid medicine which in turn lead to the female body having hormonal imbalance.

6.     Exposure to chemicals each day – Such chemicals get applied to the face and body among others. Additionally, the food that gets taken in is also filled with them. Also, they get inhaled. Some of these chemicals have the ability to change the female body’s hormones. This can lead to hormonal drop or rise which can then lead to early menopause.

7.     Chemotherapy – Sure, this is done in order to kill ovarian cancer cells (if a woman has that) but unfortunately this also kills healthy ovarian cells. Thus, one of the causes of early menopause is chemotherapy.

8.     Certain surgical procedures – Certain surgical procedures such as a hysterectomy are very likely causes of early menopause.

9.     Heredity – This can play a major role in why a woman goes into early menopause. If her mother went into early menopause then it is very likely that such a woman will then enter early menopause as well.

10.   Ovarian failure – This can be the untoward result of having a sickness such as liver disease, mumps or tuberculosis. This can then lead to lower levels of hormone production as well as early menopause.

By taking note of the causes of early menopause, you can help prevent or at least delay it.

First off, I am not a typical girl (I think.) I don’t think I’ve ever worn shorts to the gym in my life (my usual attire is a t-shirt and leggings). I wash my make up off before I start sweating, and I prefer the weight room to the cardio area.

This might offer a unique insight, or a skewed one- take it for what its worth.

This is for the fellas. I’m going to give you some advice.

Boys, we are not stupid. We are not blind. We realize you like to impress us. Its palpable. When ever I walk into the weight room, the decibel level increases- more grunts, clanging weights and swearing. It does not impress us. To be quite honest, it makes us embarrassed for you while, in all honesty, freaking us out at the same time.

I don’t think guys realize what it is like to be woman. Its scary. I have to carry my keys in my fist while walking to my car at night, displayed between my fingers like Wolverine, in case I get grabbed from behind. Anytime I walk anywhere, I have to endure whistles, cat calls, and the occasional slow drive by with obscene gesture.

On an instinctual, primal level, the bigger and burlier the man, the bigger the threat. If I am approached by an elderly man, asking for help, my woman’s intuition doesn’t sound nearly as loud as if a huge, bulging, ‘roided guy came a-knocking. My mind says, “this man could easily over power me at any second. I need to be on guard.” Fair? probably not. But neither is being raped and hacked into a million pieces.

Think about it: the gym is one of the few places that you are trapped in a facility with a ton of people you don’t know, sweating, being physical and forced to interact. I like my personal space. I like to pop my iPod in and avoid eye contact. I’m there to work out, not make friends. I’m doing this on purpose. I notice you skulking around behind me, looking in the mirror to see if I am watching you, impressed by the amount of weight you are lifting. I see it because I have eyes, not because I care. You do not need to make an extra effort for me to notice you. I notice you, and I do not like you.

A lot of girls like this display of attention. They like attention, and they like flirting, but it has nothing to do with you. These girls need outside positive male attention to feel good about themselves. These are women with daddy issues, and you don’t want anything to do with them anyways, because they will end up keying your car or threatening to eat a bottle of Tylenol PM, because the fact you didn’t text them back immediately means “you don’t love them anymore.”

Being trapped in a room with a bunch of strange men is weird and intimidating enough. Please do not make it worse.  Please don’t come uncomfortably close. Please don’t make comments, or whistle.  You can talk to me, I wont bite your head off, but make sure it is genuine.  Friendly conversation never hurt anyone, and I prefer it to stares and all around awkwardness.

Im not a man-hater, quite the contrary. I have a wonderful boyfriend whom I’ve been with for years, tons of male friends, and a few male friends from my gym.  We became friends through conversation. You know, just saying hi, or asking a question. We became friends because I did not find them

Introduction:

Do you love watching TV? How many hours a day you spend for watching? Do you know that, watching Television can lower your sperm count? Surprised!! Well, this is not what I am saying. I am just telling you what the Harvard School of Public Health study says.

Even a few years ago, there were no discussions related to health disadvantages of Television. But, over time, it has been found that, watching television can even kill people. Better, not talk about this issue. Now let’s see what the report of Harvard School of Public Health study have actually said.

To Whom the Study was conducted?

To conduct the study, the researchers and scientists examined the quality of semen of 189 young New Yorker whose ages were in between 18 and 22. The candidates were asked about the amount of time they spend for watching Television or DVDs. All these 189 young men had normal height and weight. Majority of these candidates were non- smoker.

Findings of the Study:

It is found in the research that, men who watch TV more than twenty hours a week produce 44% less sperm than who watch TV rarely. Yes!! TV lovers, you have a bad news!! Indeed!

The research also reports that, the men who do physical exercise more than 15 hours a week have 75% more sperm producing ability than the people who don’t do physical exercise or do less than five hours a week. So, this is definitely very frustrating news for the people who do desk jobs and don’t do physical exercise regularly.

The study also reveals that, the rate of declining sperm count is very high in the Western Countries. So, you can easily understand how much time these people spend for watching television. The study also says that, excessive watching of TV damages the quality of sperm (in terms of sperm concentration and count). Nearly 44% men are become the victim of declining sperm count within a very short time.

Reason behind This:

Now, let’s know the scientific explanation behind the whole thing. The scientists have said that, due to remain on the sitting position for a long time can increase scrotal temperature which results in producing poor quality sperm.

Original Explanation:

Yes!! Watching TV is a cause behind declining sperm count. But, the actual thing is bit different. Watching TV can be referred as less physical exercise. Due to having less or no physical exercise the normal sperm count is hampered.

Solution:
I believe you have already discovered the solution. Yes!! It’s physical exercise. The more physical exercise a man does the more he ensures his normal sperm count.

In the End:

One thing you should definitely understand. People often say that, lower sperm count results in less fertility. Well!! This is just a rumor. There is no scientific explanation behind such saying. But, it will be better not become a victim of declining sperm count. Who knows!! May be this will lead you anther sexual disease.

It’s been a while since I’ve held myself accountable by publishing what I ate on my cheat day. That weekly post had to make way for newer ones, and as a result I have succumb to the very topic being discussed in this post. I have allowed my cheat day foods to bleed over into my non-cheat day… days.

If you decide to have a cheat day, it’s important to make sure that you only cheat on that day, otherwise it simply doesn’t work. But for whatever reason, I have been snacking (hate that word) on my cheat day foods throughout the week. Thankfully, I’ve caught the trend before it got out of control and now I’m going to share with you the tricks I use to curb this bad habit and fight the cravings!

Brown Bag It

Whenever you buy snacks, treats, or desserts, it’s hard to not eat them when they’re just laying around the house. So what I do is take all of them and put them in a big paper shopping bag and then staple it shut. After that, I take a sharpie and write down my cheat day (Saturday) in big letters on the bag.

By doing this, you are separating those foods (which should not be eaten everyday) from the good whole foods that comprise the lion’s share of your diet. That way you know that there is no barrier preventing you from eating vegetables on any given day, but the dark chocolate is off limits until your cheat day. You can even do this with ice cream in the freezer.

Don’t Keep It In The House

If you find that you are constantly ripping the big paper bag open and you just can’t help yourself, the best idea is to kick the treats out of the house. If they aren’t in the house, you will have to actively get off the couch, go to the super market to buy more.

It takes a premeditated act to actually get in the car and go for a ride, so you’ll probably be able to fight off the temptation a little better this way. You may only have to use this approach for the first couple of weeks.

Pick An Outside Location

If all else fails and you need some more help, try picking a restaurant that you love but isn’t exactly healthy and go there for your cheat day. For me, I love ribs so if I don’t want to keep snacks around the house, I’ll just go to my favorite rib joint on Saturday and get a full rack of ribs!

How do you fight the food cravings? Do you have an approach to keep yourself honest?
