Good and bad factors of cosmetic surgery





Good and bad factors of cosmetic surgery  (November 2014)
I believe that cosmetic surgery is a personal option but in some cases it becomes a bad addiction. In the case of the personal option, i don't think that plastic surgery is necessarily a bad thing.
All human beings have some sense of insecurity and for some people that insecurity is their appearance. I think that plastic surgery is a self esteem booster, which a little boost is not a problem. For example, my mother's friend Valerie was self conscious about the size of her breast for twenty four years of her life. She would not go out in public with a bathing suit on, she would be very selective on the type of blouses she would wear, and she felt that men would not date her because of her breast size. She finally decided to pursue a breast augmentation.
Cosmetic Surgery
Afterwards, she says that she felt like a different woman. No longer was her self esteem low, but she actually felt good about herself. As Valerie describes, "This minor cosmetic surgery drastically changed my life." These circumstances where plastic surgery is minor but creates a positive change in a person's life are not bad. Also cosmetic surgery, in many cases, helps save people's lives. For example, a burn victim needs new skin on their face so that they will not bleed to death or a woman is diagnosed with breast cancer and has to remove her breasts in order to survive.

What is Hysteroscopy?



Hysteroscopy is a procedure that allows your doctor to look inside your uterus in order to diagnose and treat causes of abnormal bleeding. Hysteroscopy is done using a hysteroscope, a thin, lighted tube that is inserted into the vagina to examine the cervix and inside of the uterus. Hysteroscopy can be either diagnostic or operative.

What is diagnostic hysteroscopy?

Diagnostic hysteroscopy is used to diagnose problems of the uterus. Diagnostic hysteroscopy is also used to confirm results of other tests, such as hysterosalpingography (HSG). HSG is an X-ray dye test used to check the uterus and fallopian tubes. Diagnostic hysteroscopy can many times be done in an office setting.

Additionally, hysteroscopy can be used with other procedures, such as laparoscopy, or before procedures such as dilation and curettage (D&C). In laparoscopy, your doctor will insert an endoscope (a slender tube fitted with a fiber optic camera) into your abdomen to view the outside of your uterus, ovaries and fallopian tubes. The endoscope is inserted through an incision made through or below your navel.

What is operative hysteroscopy?

Operative hysteroscopy is used to correct an abnormal condition that has been detected during a diagnostic hysteroscopy. If an abnormal condition was detected during the diagnostic hysteroscopy, an operative hysteroscopy can often be performed at the same time, avoiding the need for a second surgery. During operative hysteroscopy, small instruments used to correct the condition are inserted through the hysteroscope.
When is operative hysteroscopy used?

Your doctor may perform hysteroscopy to correct the following uterine conditions:
  • Polyps and fibroids — Hysteroscopy is used to remove these non-cancerous growths     found in the uterus.           
  • Adhesions — Also known as Asherman’s Syndrome, uterine adhesions are bands of scar tissue that can form in the uterus and may lead to changes in menstrual flow     as well as infertility. Hysteroscopy can help your doctor locate and remove the adhesions.           
  • Septums — Hysteroscopy can help determine whether you have a uterine septum, a malformation of the uterus that is present from birth.               
  • Abnormal bleeding — Hysteroscopy can help identify the cause of heavy or lengthy     menstrual flow, as well as bleeding between periods or after menopause.

Does Baldness Come From the Mother's Father?



Baldness is a general term that describes unwanted hair loss. When the condition stems from genetic inheritance, it is called androgenetic alopecia. At one time, scientists believed that inherited baldness came from one particular side of your family tree. They now believe that you can inherit baldness from either side of your family.

Inherited Hair Loss Basics

Unwanted Hair Loss BaldnessAndrogenetic alopecia is also known as male or female pattern baldness. In men, the condition causes a loss of the front hairline and the eventual development of a horseshoe-shaped pattern in the remaining hair on the scalp. If you have female pattern baldness, you typically will not lose your front hairline. Rather, you will experience a thinning of hair that begins at the crown of your head and eventually progresses throughout your scalp. Unlike men, women with inherited baldness do not usually go completely bald.

The AR Gene

Inherited baldness is substantially determined by the actions of a gene called the AR gene, according to U.S. National Library of Medicine's Genetics Home Reference. This gene helps determine how your hair follicles respond to the presence of a hormone called dihydrotestosterone, or DHT. Your body creates DHT in your scalp when the male hormone testosterone -- which is found in both men and women -- interacts with an enzyme called Type 2 5-alpha reductase, the American Hair Loss Association reports. Once formed, DHT alters the size of your hair follicles and decreases the viability of your hair strands. Individuals with certain changes in their AR genes have an increased susceptibility to DHT's damaging effects.

Top Ten Worst Genetic Diseases


Inherited genetic diseases affect millions worldwide. Family health history is the biggest predictor of genetic disease. Research is ongoing to detect and treat genetic disease. The decision to be tested for genetic disease is often difficult and includes many moral and ethical issues. Genetic makeup passed on from parents and grandparents affects a person's life and the life of their own children. The worst genetic diseases are incurable.

Alcoholism
Considered a disease, addiction to alcohol is most likely passed down through genetic makeup. If one or both parents are addicted to alcohol, then the children of those parents appear to have a higher chance of being addicted to alcohol. As of 2010, no specific genes have been identified as the cause of alcoholism.

Breast and Colon Cancer
One in nine women has a chance to develop breast cancer. The BRCA1 and BRCA2 inherited genes predispose a woman to a greater chance of breast or ovarian cancer, but not all breast cancers are due to genetic reasons. A family history of colon cancer means there is a reason to believe it may be genetic. As with other cancers, genetic reasons may not be the only reasons for developing cancer.

Sickle Cell Disease
Having the single expression of the gene for sickle cell does not cause the disease. The gene evolved to protect people from malaria. However, getting the gene from both parents, a double dose causes the red blood cells to “sickle” spontaneously during a stress crisis. The sickled cells get stuck in small capillaries and destroy joints and organs. Eventually, the victim will die of organ failure.

Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) Treatment


For millions of women suffering from polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), trying to conceive can be a heart-breaking experience. But a new procedure is making it easier for patients to get pregnant without hormone injections, meaning a decreased risk for certain complications.

“PCOS is an endocrine disorder where women don’t ovulate on a regular basis,” “It's usually characterized by having multiple little follicles in the ovaries that appear on ultrasound, or having irregular periods, coupled with elevated male hormone levels, or elevated androgen levels.”

“Usually women with … PCOS are the primary candidates for this procedure because they have lots of little immature follicles which lead to lots of little immature eggs. We then go ahead and harvest all these immature eggs, remove them, and then mature them in the petri dish,”

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 !
