Getting Pregnant in Your 40s

The reality is, it is rare that women in their 40s naturally conceive—women 40-45 have about a 30 percent chance of getting pregnant over a one-year period and women over 45 have less than a 5 percent chance of conceiving naturally. Miscarriage rates are high: a 40-year-old has a 33 percent chance of miscarriage and women over 45 have a miscarriage rate as high as 50 percent or more.

Fertility Treatment in Your 40s

Even with fertility treatments, your odds of getting pregnant overall are not fantastic. But it certainly is not impossible either. In particular, slightly more than 50% of IVF cycles with donor eggs (what many of those celebrities are openly or not-so-openly relying on) result in a live birth, even up to age 50.

About IVF and IUI Treatments at AgelessMedica

In vitro fertilisation (IVF) is the best treatment for certain kinds of fertility problems. However, it can be demanding and doesn't always result in pregnancy.

When you do IVF at under our Guidance at Ageless Medica, you can be assured that you have received the best care possible, because Dr Sanjay Mehta and Dr Jagdip Shah do everything themselves for you - there is no "middleman " !

Since we do everything ourselves, this means that we have to limit the number of patients we can treat, so that we can provide them with our special personalized care. But we are happy to do this - it's better, we feel, to provide great care to a few patients, rather than mediocre care to too many !

Hymen Reconstruction Surgery

In a world of extreme makeovers where human bodies are now fashioned to order, this may be the ultimate plastic surgery. It is for women only. It is veiled in secrecy. And it fixes a tiny part of the anatomy rarely mentioned in polite company.

You may know it by a variety of slang terms. Technically, it's the hymen, a thin membrane that partially covers the opening of the vagina. A girl who has never had sexual intercourse is supposed to have her hymen intact.

Now, a new surgical technique is giving girls with a past a new future.

"The hymen's a delicate membrane that separates girls from women. where, in a simple, half-hour operation procedure doctor can turns sexually experienced women into surgical virgins.

The surgery is called hymen restoration — a relatively simple procedure that stitches back together what a moment of passion might have shattered.

Here are several reasons why women request a hymenoplasty procedure. These include:

• Cultural or religious reasons: In some cultures, a woman is physically inspected to make sure the hymen is intact
• As part of the rape, incest, sexual abuse healing process: Some women view this as a way to empower themselves and symbolically restore something that was taken from them.
• Injury to the hymen prior to marriage: Tampon use, vigorous exercise or sexual intercourse can cause a hymen to rupture.
• Revirginization: Women who want to give their partner a unique gift.

Tips for Hair Loss Treatment

Hair loss can be normal (hereditary hair loss), or abnormal, which is usually temporary. Hair loss can affect men, women and children and there are multiple reasons that can contribute to it.

Causes of Hair Fall:

So what is the solution to hair fall? Do anti-hair fall products really help? The answer is just look within. Yes internal problems also triggers hair fall. So before knowing how to prevent hair fall, we should know the reason behind it!

owing how to prevent hair fall, we should know the reason behind it!

a. Lack of Proper Nutrition:
b. Aging:
c. Hormonal Changes:
d. Stress:
e. Heredity:
f. Prolonged Illness:
g. Medications:
h. Thyroid Disorders:
i. Fungal Disease or Infections:
j. Pregnancy:
k. Over Styling Hair:
l. Excessive Vitamin A Intake:
m. Vitamin B Deficiency:
n. Autoimmune Disease, Lupus Cause Hair Fall:
o. Dramatic Weight Loss:
p. Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS):


Try the following easy tips at home and see how effective they are in reducing hair loss!

1. Hot oil treatments: Take any natural oil - olive, coconut, canola - and heat it up so that it is warm, but not too hot. Massage it gently into your scalp. Put on a shower cap and leave it on for an hour, then shampoo your hair.
2. Natural juices: You can rub your scalp with either garlic juice, onion juice or ginger juice. Leave it on overnight and wash it thoroughly in the morning.
3. Get a head massage: Massaging your scalp for a few minutes daily will help stimulate circulation. Good circulation in the scalp keeps hair follicles active. Circulation may be improved through massage by using a few drops of lavender or bay essential oil in an almond or sesame oil base.
4. Antioxidants: Apply warm green tea (two bags brewed in one cup of water) on your scalp and leave this mixture on for an hour and then rinse. Green tea contains antioxidants which prevent hair loss and boost hair growth.
5. Practice meditation: Believe it or not, most of the times, the root cause for hair loss is stress and tension. Meditation can help in reducing that and restore hormonal balance.
6.  Coconut Milk: Coconut milk is among the richest sources of tissue-nourishing, plant derivatives. Grind the grated coconut and squeeze it to remove its milk. Massage coconut milk on the scalp to reduce hair fall.
7. Aloe Vera: Aloe Vera juice is very effective to stop hair loss. Pure aloe gel can be applied directly to the scalp. This is helpful for preventing hair loss due to irritated, dry or infected scalp. Aloe Vera balances the pH level of scalp. After massaging the head with aloe gel, wait for few hours and then wash the hair with lukewarm water. You should do this twice a week for best results.
8. Neem Treatment: Neem is one of the most popular herbs in the country! It has many benefits, both health and beauty. And when it comes to beauty, it has some very effective hair benefits too. The astringent property of neem helps to keep lice and dandruff at bay.

How to use:

• Boil neem leaves in water until the water level falls to half its initial quantity and then cool it.
• Rinse out your hair with the mixture once a week.

9. Amla: Boil dried amla in coconut oil till the oil turns black in color. Massage your scalp with this oil. This is an effective and very easy home remedy to check hair loss. There are also other ways where we can include amla in our hair care routine.

Here are some methods to use amla effectively to control hair fall:

• Use amla and shikakai powder than you can buy in ayurvedic stores. Mix them both and make a paste. Apply this to your hair. Leave it on for a few minutes and wash off after a few minutes. Caution: If you have dry hair, skip shikakai.

• The most effective method to reduce hair fall is to drink amla and shikakai juice. Yes, it tastes terrible but if you skip the preference of the taste buds once a day, the results will definitely be worth it.

1. Healthy and Nutritious Diet: All said and done, jut these simple precautions are not going to help. It will always hold true that only when you are healthy inside will your hair be healthy too. Your hair is made up of proteins and is alive at the roots. And like any other living it also requires nutrients to remain healthy and grow. There are a few things that you can add to your diet to ensure that you intake sufficient quantities of these nutrients.

• First and foremost will be proteins of course. They are the building blocks of the hair shaft after all.
• The next in the list will be vitamins. The vitamins that are essential for the hair are Vitamin A, B complex, C, and E. Each of these performs a significant role. Vitamin B complex is most popularly known for its importance in the hair growth and hair fall control. Vitamin C prevents premature graying.
• Last but not the least, Iron. Deficiency of iron can lead to severe hair fall, which is why women suffering from anemia exhibit a great amount of hair fall.

Cosmetic Surgery and Procedures - Surgery Options

Cosmetic Surgery and Procedures - Surgery Options

There are many cosmetic surgery options to improve or change your face and body. When you talk to your surgeon, be open about what you want, but be willing to listen to his or her recommendations. Your surgeon may recommend a different procedure to achieve a similar result.

Often a less invasive or more isolated procedure will do as well as a more involved surgery. And in some cases, your doctor may recommend one of a number of skin care treatment products or non-surgical cosmetic procedures to treat your problem.

For many surgical procedures, including cosmetic surgery, the method of choice has shifted from traditional open surgery to the use of less invasive techniques. Minimally invasive surgery is surgery done with the aid of a viewing scope and specially designed surgical instruments. The scope allows the surgeon to perform major surgery through several tiny openings without the need for a large incision.

These minimally invasive alternatives usually result in less pain, less scarring, and a quicker recovery for the patient, as well as reduced health care costs. In fact, operations and therapeutic procedures performed through smaller incisions are becoming standard in surgical medicine.

In cosmetic surgery, minimally invasive proce

dures use newer technologies, such as a laser, to perform procedures that once required extensive surgery and recovery time. Today's plastic surgery have available a variety of tools and techniques that make procedures more accessible and affordable.

Common cosmetic procedures

• Laser resurfacing uses a laser light to heat, damage, or destroy the upper layers of the skin. This can tighten the skin or cause new skin to grow. It is typically used to remove or improve the appearance of wrinkles, brown spots, shallow scars (from acne, surgery, or trauma), and sometimes, the appearance of small veins. Tattoos are removed with surgery or a laser that breaks down the color into fragments. These fragments are removed by your immune system.
• Chemical peel uses a chemical solution to remove the top layers of skin, allowing new skin to grow. It is most often used to remove wrinkles, superficial skin growths, shallow scars, pigment changes in the skin, and other skin problems.
• Dermabrasion uses a fine wire brush or a diamond wheel with rough edges to remove the upper layers of the skin, allowing new skin to grow. It may be used to treat acne scars and wrinkles around the mouth or to treat an enlarged nose (rhinophyma) caused by rosacea (facial inflammation and redness).
• Microdermabrasion uses a different technique to treat just the top layers of the skin.
• Filler injections are used to smooth wrinkles or pitted scars in the skin. They are also used to make the lips fuller. Fillers can restore volume and structure that is lost due to age or weight loss treatment. When injected under the skin, a filler raises or puffs up that area. This goes away with time.
• Botox injections use a protein that weakens the muscles of the face to reduce wrinkles. The effect is temporary, lasting about 3 to 4 months.
• Sc reduces or removes the appearance of small varicose veins and spider veins. In sclerotherapy, a chemical is injected into a vein to damage and scar the inside lining of the vein, which causes the vein to close.
• Laser hair removal and electrolysis permanently remove unwanted hair such as facial hair. In laser hair removal, light treatments are used to heat and destroy hair follicles. This reduces the number of body hairs. In electrolysis, an electric current is applied to the hair root, which heats and destroys the hair follicle. Hair is not able to grow back in this area.
• Medical tattooing uses tattoo ink to change the look of a medical problem. For example, it can be used after breast surgery to create the look of a darker nipple and areola. Medical tattooing can also be used to darken white skin patches (vitiligo) and scarred skin.
• Face-lift (rhytidectomy) removes excess skin and fat and tightens the muscles to smooth the face. Improvement is especially seen along the jawline and in the neck.
• Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) removes excess skin, fat, and muscles from the eyelids to correct drooping eyelids and remove bags and puffiness. Surgery may be done on the upper and lower lids.
• "Nose job" (rhinoplasty) reshapes the nose by removing or rearranging its cartilage and bones. Rhinoplasty is done to change the appearance of your nose, improve breathing and nasal function, or achieve a combination of both.
• Breast enlargement (augmentation) places an implant under the breast tissue or the chest muscle to make the breast larger.
• Breast reduction removes excess breast tissue and skin to reshape and lift the breast. Women may seek breast reduction to change their appearance, reduce back pain, and reduce limitations of activities caused by large breasts.
• Liposuction uses suction, ultrasound, or laser to remove stubborn fat that has not gone away with a healthy weight loss diet and exercise. For women, this can be on the outer or inner thighs, neck, upper arms, belly, knees, and hips. For men, this can be on the waist, belly, neck, breasts, or back.
• "Tummy tuck" (abdominoplasty) removes excess skin and fat from the abdominal area and tightens abdominal muscles. When a large weight loss or several pregnancies leave behind extra folds of skin, some people use this surgery for a flatter, smoother stomach. As with liposuction, the purpose of a tummy tuck is to reshape the area rather than to reduce body weight.
• Varicose vein surgery removes large varicose veins. During varicose vein surgery, an incision is made over the varicose vein, and the vein is tied off and either left in place or removed. But newer therapies for vein stripping include foam sclerotherapy and laser or radiofrequency probes that use heat to destroy varicose veins.
• Hair transplant surgery reduces the appearance of bald spots or hair loss by moving hair from one part of the head to another.

SEXUAL HEALTH – Are we neglecting?

“We all spend lot of time, efforts and money to preserve, protect and restore physical health right from childhood to old age, but we grossly neglect our mental and sexual health”  says Dr Jagdip Shah, a leading Gynaecologist, Endoscopic surgeon and Sexologist from Mumbai. He came out with some startling facts about sexual health and its implications from an extensive survey of 817 middle aged married couple.

In majority the sexual activity has drastically declined ones they become parents. Ambitions, work pressures and timing, addictions and physical ill health are the most important negative forces for reduced sexual urge and performance in men, while gynaecological problems, pregnancy, dual responsibility of home as well as career and children studies are most important forces for reduced sexual urge and performance in women.

Those couples who have taken additional efforts to remain faithful to each other and consider mutual sexual gratification as an essential part of the married life, have better harmony in their life and they take better care of their children. Apart from these they enjoy better physical and mental health compare to those who seek gratification from an outsider. 

But those couples who have neglected are silently or openly suffering from matrimonial disharmony, unpleasant family life, improper child upbringing and physical as well as mental ill health. Alcohol, smoking, late working hours, obesity, TV/Internet, bringing office work to home, financial problems, domestic quarrels and late sleeping habits of children are common but easily correctable difficulties in maintain good sexual health. 

While medical diseases like Diabetes, heart disease, paralysis, cancer, backache and other orthopedics problems, gynaecological problems all need medical treatment along with sexology counseling to maintain  good sexual health. Different medicines, pace makers, valve replacement, orthopedic implants, brain surgery and cancer surgery affecting sexual health should be properly addressed.

A professional help from a sexologist at an earlier stage can make major difference in the life. As a sexologist we always emphasize that like other health check ups every couple must regularly evaluate their sexual health. We have very good questionnaire format for self evaluation. Those who want can send request on poojahospital@gmail.com or jagdip@parakhhospital.com.
