Lover of life

The lover of life makes the whole world into his family, just as the lover of the fair sex creates his from all the lovely women he has found, from those that could be found, and those who are impossible to find.

Menstrual cycle - Ovulation - Conception

Menstrual cycle - Ovulation - Conception

The menstruation, that is to say, the detachment of the internal coating of the uterus (the endometrium) accompanied of hemorrhage, it takes place in cycles approximately monthly, until the woman is embarrassed. It marks the reproductive years of the life of the woman, which they extend from the beginning of the menstruation (menarquía) and continue during the puberty up to menopause.

For definition, the first day of hemorrhage is the beginning of every menstrual cycle (the 1st), which finishes just before the following menstruation. The menstrual cycles lasts between 21 and 40 days and only 10 or 15 per cent they are exactly 28 days. The intervals between the periods are more prolonged in the years immediately. The menstrual cycle divides in three phases: folicular, ovulatory and leuteínic.

In the menstrual normal cycle an ovum is liberated of one of the ovaries about the 14th before the following menstruation. The liberation of the ovum is named an ovulation. The ovum reaches the end in the shape of funnel of one of the Fallopian tubes, where it is possible to produce the fertilization, and is transported up to the uterus. If it is not fertilized, the ovum degenerates and is eliminated across the uterus in the following menstrual period. If, on the contrary, a sperm manages to penetrate in the ovum and fertilizes it, this one begins to turn into embryo by means of a series of cellular divisions.

"Be great in act, as you have been in thought."
William Shakespeare

What is Rotary?
Rotary International is a global network of service volunteers. It is the world's largest service organisation for business and professional people, with some 1,210,905 members operating in 168 countries world-wide.

Rotarians — men and women alike — volunteer their efforts to improve the quality of life in their own communities and beyond their communities' borders. The world's Rotary clubs meet weekly and are non-political, non-religious, and open to all cultures, races, and creeds. Club membership represents a cross-section of local business and professional leaders.

Rotarians initiate community projects that address many of today's most critical issues, such as violence, drug abuse, youth, AIDS, hunger, the environment, and illiteracy. Rotary clubs are autonomous and determine service projects based on local needs.

Mission
The main objective of Rotary is service — in the community and throughout the world. Rotarians build goodwill and peace, provide humanitarian service, and encourage high ethical standards in all vocations. The Rotary motto is "Service Above Self."

The Object of Rotary
The Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise and, in particular, to encourage and foster:

FIRST. The development of acquaintance as an opportunity for service;

SECOND. High ethical standards in business and professions, the recognition of the
worthiness of all useful occupations, and the dignifying of each Rotarian's occupation as an
opportunity to serve society;

THIRD. The application of the ideal of service in each Rotarian's personal, business and
community life;

FOURTH. The advancement of international understanding, goodwill, and peace through a
world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service.

The Four Way Test
"Of the things we think, say or do:
1. Is it the truth?
2. Is it fair to all concerned?
3. Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
4. Will it be beneficial to all concerned?"

One of the most widely printed and quoted statements of business ethics in the world is the Rotary Four-Way Test. It was created by Rotarian Herbert J. Taylor in 1932 when he was asked to take charge of a company that was facing bankruptcy.

Pregnant women's behaviours

"Nesting instinct" : It is an acute impulse that often begins around the 5th month, most females in the animal kingdom experience similar behaviours just as you see birds making their nests, mothers-to-be do exactly the same thing.

This instinct guides mothers-to-be toward creating a comfortable space that counteracts the chaos of the outside world by an urging desire to prepare a nest in their home for the new baby.
As the due date draws closer, women start to tie up loose ends of old projects, organize their world, seek and destroy dust and mold, cleaning and decorating, organizing closets reorganizing anything within arms reach, cleaning cupboards or washing walls, throwing away good sheets and towels because a strong need to have "brand new, clean" sheets and towels in home.

Creating a clean, orderly, beautiful, peaceful space is not only a biological imperative, but a spiritual imperative as well; it is a humorous aspect of pregnancy, and experience to laugh about in the future. Enjoy it.

Umbilical cord encircled around the fetal neck

Fetal neck is a fairly common place for the umbilical cord to be found, parents often worry that the umbilical cord will result in undesirable outcomes for the baby, but even though, it is a very scary condition with a very small chance of possible undesirable outcomes, in the majority of cases this condition is seldom a problem and most babies do just fine.
The incidence umbilical cords encircled around the fetus, neck ranges from 21% in one loop to 0.2% in three loops
The umbilical cord is long, usually around 55 centimeters abnormal extremes of cord length range from apparently no cord (achordia) to lengths of up to 300 cm.
A long umbilical cord gets wrapped around the baby frequently and often unwraps just as frequently. The likelihood of a problem is no higher than normal. The chance of damaging the baby is very small. Although there is some disagreement; most studies have found no relationship of nuchal cords with serious neonatal problems. Fortunately, nuchal cords are an uncommon cause of fetal death
Many babies are born with the cord wrapped around the neck, though there is always a chance of tight severe compression, usually is so loose that constriction is a seldom and pretty easy to slip the cord over the baby’s head and go on to have a safe delivery. If the cord is tight and disallows any manipulation, it will be double clamp and cut between clamps to free the cord. Very few cases will need a caesarean section in labour due to a tight cord leading to distress in the baby.
There is nothing that can be done to prevent cord encircled around the baby’s neck,, if you can, try not to worry about it, as the likelihood of a problem is no higher than normal.





Ultrasound diagnosis of encircled umbilical cord

wrapped around the fetal neck
The baby's neck is shown in the longitudinal and transversal section, a portion of the umbilical cord was seen as a double circular band surrounding the fetal nuchal surface, formed by a series of collared lines with spiral course creating a ultrasonic pattern of “barber's pole”.

Trichomoniasis

One of the most common health problems among women and frequent reason to visit the doctor is a vaginal infection; these infections frequently produce a inflammatory disorder characterized by vaginal flow, irritation and / or itch whit small red sores inside the vagina or on the cervix. The most common causes are bacterial infection, trichomoniasis and candidiasis.
TRICHOMONIASIS:
Trichomoniasis is caused by a unicellular parasite, a protozoo so called Trichomonas Vaginalis.
It is principally an infection of the urogenital tract that can be passed from one person to another. It is a sexually transmitted disease (STD); it is usually diagnosed by the microscopic examination of the vaginal flow and in some cases detected by the cytology test also called Papanicolaou test.
SYMPTOMS:
Many women do not have any symptoms, but if they do have, these usually appear 5 to 28 days after exposure.
The principal symptoms in woman are:
Vaginal discharge: A dense vaginal often foamy flow of green - yellow or grey colour
Strong odor : Badly vaginal smell
Itching : Irritation and itch happens in the genital zone
Also: Discomfort during sexual act, ardor on having urinated and in some rare occasions pain in the low abdomen

In men, appears a thin secretion of whitish colour of the penis and pain or difficulty on having urinated; though it is good to stand out, that the majority of infected men, do not experience any symptom
TREATMENT:
Trichomoniasis can usually be cured with taking a drug named metronidazole or with a related drug, tinidazole. it is also treated with topical medicines that are less effective but help to ease the symptoms.
If you have any symptoms of vaginal infection stop having sex.
While being treated for trichomoniasis, sexual relationship should be avoided until the patient and the sex partner complete treatment and have no symptoms. Talk with your sex partner about having treatment at the same time
PREVENTION:
Abstinence or not having vaginal, oral, or anal sex is the best way to prevent trichomoniasis or any STD
Every time you have vaginal, anal, or oral sex, protect yourself with a condom.
Don’t share towels or underwear; the trichomoniasis can be contracted through contact with damp or moist objects that have the parasite on them.

If at this moment you have vaginal discharge, irritation, itching, bad or strong vaginal smells, contact your doctor right away. It’s up to you.

PAP TEST

Invention of Dr. Georgios Papanikolaou (1883-1962), an American of Greek birth, the father of cytopathology.

The Papanikolaou test or Papanicolaou test (also called Pap smear, Pap test, cervical smear, or smear test) is a medical screening method for detecting premalignant and malignant processes at the lower part of the uterus the cervix to determine the presence of cervical cancer. The Pap test can show abnormal cervical cells.

As part of your routine health care, a Pap tests is the best thing you can do to prevent cervical cancer. - It can save your life - The Pap smear is done by gently touching a cotton swab on the cervix and then wiping the swab on a slide which is treated and examined under a microscope.

Negative Pap smear means that your results are normal.
Positive Pap smear means that your results aren't normal. It usually does not mean you have cancer.
Abnormal Pap test results usually do not mean you have cancer. Most often there is a small problem with the cervix as inflammation caused by an infection; If that happens, your doctor may want to do another Pap smear or may want you to have a colposcopy to have a better look at your cervix to take a sample of tissue - a biopsy-.

The chance of curing cervical cancer is very high if it caught early. It is generally recommended that sexually active females seek Pap smear testing annually,
I am sure that your family doctor will be glad to give you more information on this subject, talk to him.

Miscarriage : Term used for pregnancy that ends “by itself”, within the first 20 weeks of gestation. Most miscarriages occur during the first 13 weeks of pregnancy, and many go unnoticed, due to the fact that some women do not realize they are pregnant. It is the most common type of pregnancy loss, according to the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology, approximately 15% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage.
The reason for miscarriage is varied and most often, the cause can not be identified. During the first trimester, the most common cause of miscarriage is chromosomal abnormality-meaning that something is not correct with the baby’s chromosomes. Other causes for miscarriage include
· Hormonal problems, infections or health problems in the mother
· Implantation of the egg into the uterine lining does not occur properly
· Smoking,druguse,malnutrition,excessive caffeine and exposure to radiation or toxic substances

Warning signs of Miscarriage:

· Mild to severe back pain
· True contractions- very painful happening every 5-20 minutes
· Brown or bright red bleeding or spotting with or without cramps
· Tissue with clot like material passing from the vagina
· Decrease in signs of pregnancy or loss of breast tenderness

If you experience any or all of these symptoms, it is very important to contact your doctor or get to a medical facility as soon as possible

How to confirm pregnancy

Urine Pregnancy Tests: A pregnancy test that uses urine
to find the hormone called Human Chorionic Gondaotrophin,
or HCG. Urine Pregnancy tests are taken two weeks after
conception, or anytime after a woman misses a period.
Most women can find these test an their local drug store.

Blood Pregnancy Tests: Blood tests can be taken
slightly earlier than urine tests. Like urine tests,
blood tests detect HCG to confirm a pregnancy.

Ultrasound: Sometimes referred to as a sonogram.
Uses sound waves to detect a gestacional sac and watch the
unborn baby. Usually an ultrasound gives an accurate
answer to the gestational age and due day.

Terms to know

Ovulation: Occurs two weeks, or an average of 14 days,
after the beginning of a woman’s last period. A woman has
a rise in her luteinizing hormone (LH) when the egg is
available for fertilization. This is the most probable time
frame to get pregnant.

Conception: When the egg is available for fertilization and
350 million sperm is released inside or near the woman’s
vaginal area, about 200 sperm will reach the egg. Of those
200 sperm, only one will actually penetrate the egg, thus
causing conception.

Gestation: How far along the fetus is, determined by the
beginning of the mother’s last period. Babies are usually
born at 40 weeks, but considered full-term from 37 weeks,
and extends to 42 weeks.

Prenatal care

What is prenatal care?
Prenatal care is the health care you get while you are pregnant.
Prenatal care can help keep you and your baby healthy. Babies of mothers who do not get prenatal care are three times more likely to have a low birth weight and five times more likely to die than those born to mothers who do get care.

Doctors can spot health problems early when they see mothers regularly. This allows doctors to treat them early. Early treatment can cure many problems and prevent others. Regular health care is best for you and your baby.

Your doctor will give you a schedule of all the doctor's visits you should have while pregnant. As your pregnancy progresses, you'll see the doctor more often. Most experts suggest you see your doctor:

*about once each month for the first six months of pregnancy
*every two weeks for the seventh and eight month of pregnancy
*every week until the baby is born

At the first visit, you should ask questions and discuss any issues related to your pregnancy. Find out all you can about how to stay healthy.

Later prenatal visits will probably be shorter. Your doctor will check on your health and make sure the baby is growing as expected. Most prenatal visits will include:

*checking the baby's heart rate
*checking your blood pressure
*checking your urine for signs of diabetes
*measuring your weight gain

While you're pregnant your doctor or midwife may suggest a number of laboratory tests, ultrasound exams, and other screening tests.

Mother to be ? :Ultrasound Evaluation " A must have"

Ultrasound Evaluation during the First Trimester is an important diagnostic tool for any pregnant woman and her baby. It takes less than 30 minutes and is performed at different times during the pregnancy. It is performed via transdominal or may also be performed as a transvaginal study, it is not painful.

Helps ensure baby is healthy, it is considered safe for mother-to-be and her baby and aiding in diagnosis and treatment of a variety of medical conditions and common pregnancy complications, pregnancy ultrasound has become a “must-have diagnostic procedure”.

In early pregnancy helps to establish the site and status of the Gestational Sac which is the first element measurable and used for estimating gestational age. Useful between 5 and 8 menstrual weeks with accuracy of +/- 0.5 week . After that , the length of the embryo (crown-rump length.) is among the best documented parameters to date the pregnancy , with accuracy of +/- 3-5 days.

Some clinical Indications for First Trimester Obstetric Sonography are:

1.) Confirm ongoing pregnancy in the setting of vaginal bleeding and pain (Threaten Abortion)
2.) Establish gestation age and EDC (due date) when menstrual history inadequate.
3.) Exclusion of Ectopic pregnancy: Primarily by identification of intrauterine implantation.

It is expected that a fetal ultrasound will be performed in the first trimester of pregnancy, in the second trimester and the third, but it can be performed at different times during pregnancy, many healthcare providers perform ultrasounds at eight to 12 weeks of pregnancy to determine the actual due date by viewing the fetus and its size; at 10-13 weeks to check the development of the brain and spinal cord; at 16-20 weeks to check baby’s size, growth and likelihood of birth defects; Further scans may sometimes be done at around 32 weeks or later to evaluate fetal size (to estimate the fetal weight) and assess fetal growth. or to follow up on possible abnormalities seen at an earlier scan. Placental position is further verified, to check the amount of amniotic fluid and the baby’s overall well-being and development. The most common reason for having more scans in the later part of pregnancy is fetal growth retardation. Doppler scans may also be necessary in that situation. The total number of scans will vary depending on whether a previous scan has detected certain abnormalities that require follow-up assessment.

Cryptomenorrhoea

It means : Hidden menstruation.

In this case the woman does mesntruate but the products cannot

escape to the exterior.

Usual reason ? : Imperforate hymen.

There is cyclical pain and swelling of the abdomen.

At the vulva a tense blue membrane will be seen when the labia

are parted and the abdominal swelling is due to a gross distension

of the vagina with the menstrual fluid (hematocolpos).

The condition can take months or years to develop to such a degree and

occasionally the patients present with acute retention of urine.

Treatment ? : Incision of the hymen
