Things women should know about breast cancer.

Breast cancer is a reality many women will have to deal with. Statistics show that one woman out of nine will develop breast cancer in her life. Whether it be a dear friend, a close family member or herself, every woman will be touched by breast cancer in one way or the other. Breast cancer accounts for about 30% of all cancers.

Recently my cousin and even a friend got it. My mum also died of it so I thought I'd share some stuff to people that need a plan to help themselves. Here are some tips and knowledge.

Every woman should be aware of the risk factors and change those she can to lower her risk of developing breast cancer in her life.

Women who are not active physically, smoke or consume a lot of alcohol are at higher risk to develop breast cancer.

Women who have their first child at a later age or have never given birth are at higher risk to develop breast cancer.

Women who had their first period at an earlier age (less than 12 years old) are at higher risk for breast cancer.

Woman who have close family members who had develop breast cancer are at higher risk for themselves.

Women who are older. The further a woman advances in life, the higher her probability of developing breast cancer.

Women who experience a late menopause (after 55 years old) have an increase risk of developing breast cancer.

There is hope however and certain measures have proven to help reduce the risk of developing breast cancer for a woman. It is recommended to exercise regularly, lose any excess weight, lower alcohol consumption and stop smoking. It is also proven that women who breastfeed their babies are at lower risks to develop breast cancer.

Certain measures, by finding breast cancer at an earlier stage can lower the complication rate and morbidity associated with this condition. The two most recommended measures are to do a mammogram exam every two years after the age of 50 (or earlier if a woman has risk factors) and doing a breast self-examination. It is also recommended for a woman to visit her doctor regularly. One has to know that about two thirds of breast tumours are found by the woman herself upon doing her self-examination.

Bar advice.Many organizations and industries have joined forces to push back breast cancer and one can only encourage them by donating time or money for this worthy cause. There are many researches on breast cancer conducted worldwide and it is expected that the near future will see the decline of this devastating affliction. This is not to scare you but to empower you with this info.

Penis Problems

Nothing in the world excites you better than sex…it’s an irrepressible desire…you can not run away from sex by any means. Sex is an ultimate enhancer as well as a drastic depressor; sexual dissatisfaction leaves you in vulnerable position.

A good sex is a sensational experience; it rejuvenates your mind and body and increases your self-belief. But there are times when little Johnny does not supports you, you desperately want it but you can’t have it, and this is the time when manhood is at stake.

In medical terms the problem is christened as Erectile Dysfunction, it is defined as the inability to keep up erection essential for sexual gratification, to be a bit more precise, it can be categorized as temporary or short term erectile dysfunction or permanent erectile dysfunction. About 150 million men around the world are under its grasp, its thoroughly different form other sexual problems related to orgasm or reluctance towards sex.Some vital factors contributing to erectile dysfunction are-

Diabetes, high cholesterol, and early stages of heart disease can cause erectile dysfunction.Emotional disorder, problem in relationship.Socioeconomic issues.Smoking and alcoholism.Lack of frequent erection. (It adds to it, hence the saying, 'Use it or loose it")

Many guys go to the bars to pick up women because they have this problem and sometimes they find that it's not working that night but it won't hurt too much because he'll never see her again. Sometimes it works well because she may have triggered a fantasy in his mind and all went well so everything worked out. Whatever the case it seems that all the factors can add to the dysfunction or not. what can a guy do then.

Maybe you want to try out some alternative medicine or treatment. Why not? Then there's Viagra. The magic blue pill that has been around awhile now and helps a lot of people. There's one problem. It does have side effects. We have heard this and the scientist have said so but people still take it. If ever it causes a problem later in life then you can't sue them because they have disclosed that side effects may occur in people. Great idea to let that info out of the bag in case of future lawsuits.What other ways then?

This bottle may help.

One better thing you can do for yourself is to get a healthy lifestyle going. Eat differently and really find out what supplements you need to take to enhance your metabolism.Make sure you can get ingredients that include, Panax Ginseng root,Epimedium Sagittatum(Ying Yang Hua),Tribulus terrestris fruit and more. You got to check it out for yourself.Get help if you have to. Whatever the case may be, it's in your best interest to sort it out now because the loss of use of the penis will some how bring about depression in your life and your partner.

Bar advice. The fact that there are millions of people with this problem out there some how doesn't seem to help. You feel that you're all alone in this matter. No one to talk about it and not sure what to do.Here is the best piece of advise that I can hand out to you. GO SEE A DOCTOR. I don't just mean the specialist for this particular issue but also a psychiatrist to deal with the emotional anxiety as well.
