3 Things That Kill Sexual Desire

Can we have great sex with someone and not have a good relationship? The answer is sometimes we can, but mostly we can’t. Good sex does mean that the connection and intimacy we have with our mate does translate into more intimacy. However, it’s not the whole story. Sexual relationships often hinge on whether couples make time for sex, or whether they can still be romantic. John Gottman an emeritus professor of psychology at the University of Washington and the author of <em>The Seven Principles of a Happy Marriage</em> and <em>The Science of Trust: Emotional Attachment of Couples</em> maintains that “What’s been described as low libido in women is the fact that their men stopped courting them.” Let’s look more at other factors that cause “low libido” in Part 2 of examining the recent iVillage national survey with women on what they really think about behind the bedroom’s closed doors. (Read Part 1: <a href="http://www.care2.com/greenliving/just-how-important-is-sex-really.html" style="color: #0c739e; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Just How Important is Sex, Really?</a> here.)</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
<strong>Forty percent say that raising children lessons their desire. </strong>Children take a lot of the spontaneity out of our sex lives. It’s a challenge to be able to find the time to be together with needy babies all around.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
1. Sex and exhaustion are not a good mix. Men don’t always understand what it’s like to be a stay-at-home Mom. Especially within the first three years of a child’s life, the constancy of care is so exhausting. The ability of a spouse to understand the effect of long term child care will affect the return of their sex life. Empathy and compassion are ways of connecting and for women that is the necessary ingredient for sexual desire.<br />2. When there is a loss of desire on the part of one spouse, try talking about it. Listen to complaints, make agreements, and strengthen your friendship and partnership. The term inter-dependency is about working well as a team. Good teams play well together.<br />Ask these two questions of each other…<br />3. What are three things you can do to make your relationship and sex life improve?<br />4. What fantasies can you talk about that would make your sex life sexy?</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
<strong>Thirty-four percent say their libido is limp because of <a href="http://www.care2.com/greenliving/can-a-good-fight-save-your-relationship.html" style="color: #0c739e; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">arguments</a>. </strong>Conflict resolution has as its main goal to increase intimacy through listening, acknowledging and validating the opinions and feelings of our partner. It’s a big turn on. Nothing kills desire more than arguments that are not solved or if they are too frequent. Anger and desire cancel each other out.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
1. Anger management and conflict resolution skills are the most important skill in a successful relationship. Conflict is the killer in relationships and sex lives. Conflict kills desire, trust and friendship if it is not resolved in a good way.<br />2. Basic resolution skills involve: Cooling off first (no one is rational when they are mad). Then make sure you acknowledge and validate the other person before you make your point (acknowledgement does not mean agreement). Then define the problem. Ask what you can do to make it better and then try to do those things that you talk about.<br />3. Compassion, understanding, respect and empathy create a space for sexual intimacy to happen. Kindness is always foreplay.<br />4. Remember when you were first dating and you wanted to have sex? What did you do then? You dressed up, went out to a nice dinner, said sweet things, were funny and you hung on every word. Why do we forget this?</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
<strong>Thirty-one percent say they aren’t interested in sex because of a loss of physical attraction.</strong> The loss of physical attraction is based on not being our best selves at home. The challenge is to be the kind of person that someone would want to have sex with. Relationships require that we become better people to be in them.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
1. When sexual attraction diminishes or goes away entirely it can be the result of health issues, drugs and alcohol, personnel issues or the loss of respect. The loss of respect is the chief cause of the loss of sexual desire.<br />2. If your partner has lost respect for you, what can you do about it? Make sure you have taken responsibility for whatever you may have done to cause it. Do whatever you need to do to make it better and let your partner know what your plan is.<br />3. If your mate is not interested in sex, then don’t push for it. Do all the things that would make your mate feel you are tuned into them. Make sure you acknowledge what they are feeling.<br />4. One of the most difficult aspects of relationship intimacy is the fear of being vulnerable. Men are told early on to not show emotions, don’t cry, don’t show weakness. Emotions are normal and no one is weak for having them. Don’t be a victim, but for sure don’t be the perp. You have nothing to lose by telling the whole truth and nothing creates respect more than someone who is willing to open it all up.</div>

5 Foods Every Woman Should Eat More Of

</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
For busy women of all ages, five foods boast high scores in essential nutrients — iron, calcium, magnesium, vitamin K, folate, vitamin D, and omega-3 fatty acids, in particular. Best of all, these foods are easy to find at practically every grocery store, no matter where you live, and each of them takes less than 15 minutes to prepare.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<strong>1. Broccoli</strong><br />Broccoli is practically unrivaled among all foods when it comes to protecting against <a href="http://www.caring.com/cancer?utm_source=care2&utm_medium=partner" style="color: #0c739e; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">cancer</a>. Its powerful phytonutrients not only help neutralize carcinogens, but they also stimulate detoxifying enzymes that help the body rid itself of cancer-causing and other harmful toxins. Indole-3-carbinol, another compound found in broccoli, is particularly healthy for women; it’s been shown to reduce the risk of breast and cervical cancers and helps suppress the spread of existing cancer. This green vegetable also happens to be one of the richest food sources of the flavonoid kaempferol, which has shown protective benefits against ovarian cancer.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
What’s more, broccoli is a superior source of folate, a B vitamin that’s needed for making and protecting DNA, producing new blood, forming new cells, and synthesizing protein. Folate has also been tied to a decreased risk of some cancers in adults.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
But there are a couple of reasons why this nutrient is crucial for women’s health in particular. First, folate is one of the most essential nutrients for pregnant women. It supports proper development of the fetal nervous system and protects against neural tube (birth) defects. Second, research shows that women are twice as likely as men to experience depression, and numerous studies have linked folate deficiency with depression. The good news: There’s also evidence showing that boosting folate levels can increase serotonin levels and improve symptoms of depression.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
An added bonus: As a natural diuretic, broccoli helps reduce bloating and water retention associated with premenstrual syndrome.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
Broccoli is an excellent source of dietary fiber and of vitamins C, K, and A, and it’s a good source of manganese, tryptophan, potassium, B vitamins, phosphorus, magnesium, and protein. It’s also high in calcium, iron, zinc, and vitamin E. Many of these nutrients work in partnership: Vitamin C helps the body absorb iron; vitamin K anchors calcium to the bone; dietary fiber promotes better absorption of all nutrients.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<strong>Quick and healthy tip:</strong> For optimal taste and nutrition, steam broccoli florets for no more than five minutes, or until they turn bright green. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil, lemon, and sea salt to taste.</div>

Human Anatomy Vagina

<div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">A vagina is the female sex organ. As the organ of sexual response, it accommodates the<a href="http://healthy-lifestyle.most-effective-solution.com/2010/08/17/human-anatomy-penis-2/" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(203, 66, 0); border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #cb4200; text-decoration: none;" target="_self">penis</a> during copulation. The infant goes through it during childbirth. Furthermore, the organ serves as the passageway for menstrual fluids from the uterus.</div><div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">A vagina links to the uterus, a pear-shaped hollow organ situated between the rectum and the <a href="http://healthy-lifestyle.most-effective-solution.com/2010/08/10/human-anatomy-bladder/" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(203, 66, 0); border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #cb4200; text-decoration: none;" target="_self">bladder</a>. The cervix, which serves as the channel between the vagina and uterus, projects into the vagina.</div><div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">External structures, known as the vulva and labia, front the vagina. A superficial layer of tissue, called the hymen, partly constricts the vaginal opening. But it can be torn apart by sexual activities and exercising.</div><div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: center;"><img alt="human-anatomy-vagina" class="size-medium wp-image-2240 aligncenter" height="320" src="http://healthy-lifestyle.most-effective-solution.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/human-anatomy-vagina-400x320.jpg" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(202, 202, 202); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-color: rgb(235, 235, 235); border-left-style: solid; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-color: rgb(202, 202, 202); border-right-style: solid; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-color: rgb(235, 235, 235); border-top-style: solid; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="human-anatomy-vagina" width="400" /></div><h2 style="color: #202830; font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 14px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Vagina diseases and conditions</span></h2><div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">As is the case with males, the vagina is susceptible to many sexually transmitted infections or diseases (STIs or STDs).  One of the most widely recorded is gonorrhea, an STI caused by bacterial infestation in the cervix, and chlamydia, brought about by the bacterium<em>Chlamydia trachomatis</em>. Five out of 10 women show symptoms of these infections, which often include vaginal discharges.</div><div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">Trichomoniasis is another notorious – but easily treatable – sexually transmitted vaginal infection. Still another common STI is the incurable herpes, caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV) and leads to ulcerous growths on the vagina.</div><div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">Another notable virus is the human papillomavirus (HPV), which targets the vulva and the vagina. It manifests itself with vaginal warts.</div><div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">Meanwhile, bacterial vaginosis happens when the acidity of the vagina strays beyond normal levels, destabilizing the growth of healthy flora or “good bacteria” in the vagina. As a result, the vagina emits a certain stink and releases discharges. Causes of vaginosis include douching and sexual intercourse.</div><div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">If a vagina comes under a yeast infection, it can get inflamed, a condition known as vaginitis. Inflammation of the vagina results in discharges, itching and reeking.</div><div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">Childbirth and several other factors can weaken the pelvic muscles, causing the uterus to press on the vagina. This condition is called a vaginal prolapse. In its worst cases, prolapse causes the vagina to jut out the body.</div><div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">As a point of comparison, vaginal prolapse is more common than cancer of the vagina. Telltale symptoms of this cancer are bleeding and discharges from the vagina. Surgery may be necessary.</div><div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">During sexual intercourse, the vaginal muscles may involuntarily undergo spasms. This condition, termed vaginismus, is said to be caused by emotional apprehensions about sex and other factors.</div><h2 style="color: #202830; font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 14px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Treating vagina conditions</span></h2><div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">Surgery may be required to treat a vaginal prolapse. Otherwise, the doctor may place a vaginal pessary inside the vagina to realign prolapsing organs.</div><div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">With a <a href="http://healthy-lifestyle.most-effective-solution.com/" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(203, 66, 0); border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #cb4200; text-decoration: none;">healthy lifestyle</a>, you can prevent vaginal prolapse by doing Kegel exercises. Whenever you urinate, stop your flow every ten seconds or so. Doing so exercises the pelvic muscles, thereby preventing vaginal prolapse.</div><div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">As for STIs, antibiotics are prescribed by doctors against infections of bacterial nature, while antiviral drugs are used against herpes and other sexually transmitted viruses. Yeast infections can be treated by antifungal or antimicrobial medications.</div><div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">There is a wide array of available treatments for removing vaginal warts. They include laser, freezing, electricity and chemicals.</div><div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">Estrogen supplements may be necessary for menopausal women. In general, the vagina and all other female organs reciprocate well to estrogen.</div><div style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">As an alternative approach, here are some recommended natural remedies:</div><ul style="color: #39444d; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;"><li><a href="http://www.nativeremedies.com/mellowpause_for_menopause.shtml?img=20&kbid=12393" style="color: #cb4200; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">MellowPause</a> – helps maintain balanced moods and healthy sleep patterns during menopause</li>

Why is my cycle irregular?</span></h2><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Or do you really have an irregular cycle? It is imperative that you learn how to distinguish between an irregular and a regular cycle.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A regular cycle posits that the time span between the onset of bleeding and the next period runs anywhere from 25 to 35 days. Gynecologists would assure you are not irregular just because you don’t have your period on the same day each month.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then again, some women do have irregular periods. Chalk it up to irregular ovulation, for the most part. You could also factor in stress, illness, weight loss, weight gain, eating disorders, excessive or high-intensity exercise, and hormonal changes. Or you may have missed your period for the plain and simple reason that you’re pregnant.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you’re one of those women who tend to forget their last period, record it on a menstruation calendar or any organizer. Track when your period begins and ends every month.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><a href="http://healthy-lifestyle.most-effective-solution.com/2009/03/24/10-gynecology-health-facts-women-should-know/" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(203, 66, 0); border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #cb4200; text-decoration: none;" target="_self">Ask your doctor</a> if your period doesn’t get back in your next cycle.</span></div><h2 style="color: #202830; font-weight: normal; line-height: 14px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">2. What causes PMS?</span></h2><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">PMS, or premenstrual syndrome, happens because the week before menstruation comes with rapid hormonal changes. Around 10 days leading to the first day of bleeding, the levels of estrogen and progesterone in your body are thrown for a loop.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Subsequently, you would get telltale PMS symptoms such as moodiness, headaches, breast tenderness, fatigue and bloating. As much as 90 percent of females have such symptoms prior to the period. Twenty percent, meanwhile, have severe PMS symptoms, in that these hamper their daily activities.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Gynecologists would likely treat PMS per symptom. For example, they would likely prescribe calcium supplements for mood swings or alternatively, antidepressants (in low dosage). As for patients with severe premenstrual symptoms, gynecologists may prescribe birth control pills, if only to relieve the discomfort.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Natural approach lover may opt to a safer and natural options:</span></div><ul style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.nativeremedies.com/femalite_for_pms.shtml?img=21&kbid=12393" style="color: #cb4200; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Fermalite</a> – 100% herbal remedy that promotes mood balance during menstrual period</span></li>

</ul><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">During your PMS, whether it is severe or not, try to keep a <a href="http://healthy-lifestyle.most-effective-solution.com/" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(203, 66, 0); border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #cb4200; text-decoration: none;">healthy lifestyle</a>. If you can, get up and exercise daily. Drink plenty of water while you’re at it. Also, have something to munch on every now and then, but avoid caffeinated drinks and alcohol.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">According to a study published in the <em>Archives of Internal Medicine </em>in<em> </em>2005, taking <a href="http://healthy-lifestyle.most-effective-solution.com/2009/07/06/vitamin-d-sunshine-vitamin-continues-to-shine/" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(203, 66, 0); border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #cb4200; text-decoration: none;" target="_self">vitamin D</a> and calcium in high doses seem to prevent PMS from arising. Researchers discovered that the risk for PMS is markedly high in respondents who do not follow their recommended daily servings of fortified orange juice and low-fat milk.</span></div><h2 style="color: #202830; font-weight: normal; line-height: 14px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">3. Is it possible to be knocked up during menstruation?</span></h2><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Rest assured this is not always the case. But first, you must be certain if your bleeding represents a period.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sometimes, women consider bleeding as a period when in truth, it actually is spotting. During spotting, women are ovulating; you can get pregnant during this time.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In another uncommon instance, you could also get pregnant if you have sex at the tail-end of your period. This happens when your period has already stopped, yet you ovulate days later with the sperms still in you.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In general, a flow does not mean you are not carrying someone in you. If you have doubts about your period, better get a pregnancy test or visit your doctor. What you think may be a period could really be bleeding during pregnancy’s early stages.</span></div><h2 style="color: #202830; font-weight: normal; line-height: 14px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">4. What happens if I leave tampons for so long?</span></h2><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">People would say you’re at risk for toxic shock syndrome or TSS if that happens, but this condition is a rarity. In America, only one out of 100,000 women suffers from TSS every year, says the Centers for Disease Control. Scores of gynecologists also claim they have only read about TSS in medical books.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But TSS was widely read about once. In 1980, a TSS epidemic took hold of buyers of a certain brand of extremely absorbent tampons. The product has since been yanked off stores.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">TSS occurs when bacteria releases toxins into the body. It is tipped off by fever, diarrhea, convulsions, vomiting, nausea, body pains and rashes. At its worst, TSS is fatal.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now bacteria may thrive in absorbent tampons left too long. But it would not always raise your risk of getting toxic shock. To be safe, just follow the instructions on the tampon packaging. Usually manufacturers tell consumers to change tampons every 4-8 hours.</span></div><br />

With less lubrication, having sexual intercourse would be painful and uncomfortable to women. This is one of the reasons for sexual dysfunction in women. Libido levels of women decreases because of avoidance to have sexual intercourse with the partner. Relationship problems will also occur due to lack of sex and decreased sexual desire to the partner.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Signs and symptoms of vaginal dryness include itching, burning sensation, urgency to urinate, pain and minimal bleeding during sex.</span></div><h2 style="color: #202830; font-size: 18px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 14px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What Causes Vaginal Dryness?</span></h2><div style="color: #39444d; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Many factors such as the use of condoms, tampons, diaphragm, medications, soaps that can dry skin and underlying medical conditions can lead to vaginal dryness.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Decreased estrogen levels is the most common <strong>cause for vaginal dryness</strong>. Low levels of estrogen can cause the wall to thin and dry out. Menstruation, pregnancy, childbirth, radiation therapy, hormonal contraceptives, stress, and smoking should be given considerations for decreased estrogen levels.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Vaginal dryness can be a symptom of a medical condition such as Sjogren’s disease.

<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Eat a balanced diet by moderate intake of cholesterol. Cholesterol helps in the increase of estrogen levels in the body.</span></li>

These may mean the existence of fibroids in your uterus which may also signal a gynecological condition called<a href="http://healthy-lifestyle.most-effective-solution.com/2007/12/11/40s-women-common-conditions-endometriosis/" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(203, 66, 0); border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #cb4200; text-decoration: none;" target="_self">endometriosis</a>. This condition occurs when the lining of the uterus, which is shed during your menstrual cycle, is located outside the uterus. If endometriosis is not diagnosed early enough, it can cause complications which may lead to an impaired ability to have children, or worse, infertility.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The menstrual cycle is very good indicator of a woman’s overall health status. Most menstrual problems are normal and temporary, including heavy bleeding, severe pain, and irregular cycles. But in some cases, these problems may also signal problems in the body. It is important to know which problems are normal and which are cause for concern.</span></div><h2 style="color: #202830; font-weight: normal; line-height: 14px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">What is Normal and Healthy Period</span></h2><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What is regular and normal varies from one woman to the next. One of the most important factors is a woman’s age. Irregular cycles for the first two years are normal for adolescents who just started having their periods, and the same goes for women just before menopause. The irregularity is caused by fluctuating levels of hormones, stabilizing for adolescents, and declining for menopausal women. Between this age-range, regular monthly cycles can be expected, although some minor variations may also be considered normal. Irregularities only occur if a woman is pregnant, ill, under medication, or is under stressed.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The number of days between menstrual periods falls between 22 and 40 days, with each cycle lasting between two to eight days, with a variation of plus or minus five days. If a woman who normally has a 40-day cycle suddenly shifts to a 22-day cycle, it could signal a problem, or if your period lasts shorter or longer than your regular pattern for several months. Significant changes like these should not be ignored. A three-month period of observation is best to gauge whether or not there is a cause for concern. Always consult a doctor for a more definitive and expert evaluation.</span></div><h2 style="color: #202830; font-weight: normal; line-height: 14px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Tips to Keep Track of your Menstrual Cycle</span></h2><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Only a doctor can conclusively diagnose any problems you may have, but you can also find out if something is wrong with yourself by keeping track of your menstrual cycle. The more detailed information you have, the better you can figure out if something is abnormal. The following are the important details you should take note of.</span></div><ul style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The number of days between the first day of one cycle and the first day of the next cycle.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The number of days between the first and last days of your cycle.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">How heavy your bleeding is and the heaviest days in your cycle.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you have spotting between cycles and when.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you have pain and where and when it occurs.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Other symptoms like headaches, backaches, stomach problems, fatigue, dizziness, or unusual vaginal discharge.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Medications.</span></li>
</ul><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Having a record of your periods is very helpful for both you and your doctor in determining what is normal and abnormal and what may be causing the irregularities. They may point to pregnancy, tell you to be more careful about birth control, when you’re ovulating, or if you are having perimenopausal symptoms. At the end of the day, you know your own body better than anybody else.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When you consult your doctor regarding menstrual-related concerns, you may have to undergo several examinations, including a pelvic exam, a pregnancy test, a check of your vital signs, urinalysis, blood tests, and even a vaginal ultrasound for a closer look at the uterus and ovaries. The type of exam will depend on your symptoms, age, and medical history. That is why it is very important that you tell your doctor and your family’s history of disease. It is also important that your doctor knows any relevant details about your lifestyle, like your diet, exercise, or any emotional distress.</span></div><h2 style="color: #202830; font-weight: normal; line-height: 14px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Common Menstrual Problems</span></h2><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A young woman should have her period by the age of 16. If menstruation has not occurred by this age, a doctor evaluation is necessary. Many factors may contribute to this abnormality, including hormonal problems, excess stress or exercise, under-nutrition, or eating disorders. More serious factors include genetic disorders, problems in the nervous system or pituitary gland, ovarian tumors, ovary failure, or under-formed reproductive organs.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For those women who have always had regular cycles and suddenly missed a month, the first rule-out is always pregnancy. A doctor should be consulted immediately.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If pregnancy is not the reason for the irregularity, other reasons that may be considered by your doctor are breastfeeding, use of medication especially contraceptive pills, menopause, stress, poor nutrition, eating disorders, extreme weight loss, sudden weight gain, obesity, an ongoing illness, depression, or hormonal problems.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">However, it may also be normal to miss one or two periods in a year, especially if the next cycle is heavier than usual. The heavy bleeding is caused by the buildup of unshed uterine lining from the missed month. But missing two periods in two consecutive months is not healthy and puts you at risk for uterine cancer as a result of excessive estrogen. If you miss your period due to a lack of estrogen, on the other hand, your risk of developing osteoporosis is increased.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For women who are trying to get pregnant, irregular periods is a great cause for concern because these women usually have problems ovulating properly.</span></div><h2 style="color: #202830; font-weight: normal; line-height: 14px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Spotting</span></h2><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are many reasons for bleeding in between periods, some may signal a serious problem, while others can be easily addressed. If spotting occurs for a prolonged duration, for example, or in girls who are younger than 10 years old, during pregnancy, or after menopause, you should see a doctor right away.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Women who use birth control pills are susceptible to light bleeding between periods when they do not take their pills regularly. If the dosage of the birth control pills is not correct, bleeding before the week of the regular cycle may also occur. In both cases, the progesterone levels in the body are not high enough. Again, doctor consultation and evaluation are necessary. If you are on the contraceptive Depo-Provera, minor bleeding can be expected.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Other possible causes of spotting include breastfeeding, over exercising, hormone irregularities, pregnancy problems, ovulation, perimenopause, or the use of an IUD.</span></div><h2 style="color: #202830; font-weight: normal; line-height: 14px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Heavy Bleeding, Prolonged Bleeding, and Clots</span></h2><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Women who bleed heavily during their cycles are susceptible to anemia. However, the heaviness or lightness of periods varies from one woman to another. A heavy or prolonged bleeding may not be normal for one woman but is normal for another.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As long as you get regular pelvic exams and blood tests, you may not have to worry about periods that become heavier and thicker over time. Your doctor can advise you about preventing anemia or controlling your bleeding.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Some women may be concerned about the thickness, heaviness, or length of their bleeding. But a woman’s assessment of her own blood loss is highly subjective. They may be worried about blood loss that they perceive to be too much but is actually within the normal range. However, consulting a doctor is always helpful. He would need to know how much tampons or pads you use every hour or every day. If you are changing a full tampon or pad every hour, this may signal a problem.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Blood clots that come out during menstruation are also normal as long as they don’t happen for a prolonged period, during pregnancy, or in between periods. The clots normally form during sleep, when the blood collects and comes out thicker in the morning.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you have concerns regarding your bleeding, always see a doctor. Other causes of heavy, thick, or prolonged bleeding include uterine fibroids, uterine cancer, obesity, reproductive problems (i.e. endometriosis), hormonal irregularities, blood disorders (i.e. von Willebrand’s disease), aspirin overdose, and contraceptive use.</span></div><h3 style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Painful Menstruation</span></h3><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Menstrual cramps, whether we like them or not, are a part of many women’s cycles. The cramps are characterized by a dull or throbbing pain in the lower abdomen. They are caused by the contractions of the muscles as they push out the uterine lining. Painful menstruation is one of the most common reasons for missed work among women.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">However, intense, prolonged, or unusual pain beyond the normal menstrual cramps may signal other problems, like endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease, problems with your IUD, or uterine fibroids and polyps.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Severe menstrual pain may be a cause for concern if it disrupts a woman’s normal daily activities, or if it happens a week or more before her cycle starts, continues after her period starts, or happens in the middle of her cycle.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If the woman is on painkillers to manage menstrual pain, usage may also point to a problem. Normally, a woman would need to take the medication three days before her period starts and the first couple of days of her flow. But if she needs to take her painkillers for a whole week, the week before or the week after, this could be something to be worried about. The type, severity, and radiation of the pain are very helpful details a woman should give her doctor.</span></div><h2 style="color: #202830; font-weight: normal; line-height: 14px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Natural Help For Menstrual Problems</span></h2><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Natural and holistic treatments such as herbal and homeopathic remedies may also provide symptomatic relief for menstrual disorders. Herbal and homeopathic remedies are safe and gentle to use for the body, and also promote overall health and well being. Herbs such as Dong Quai (Angelica Sinesis) encourage hormonal harmony throughout the menstrual cycle while Pulsatilla vulgaris (Pasque Flower) helps to support the female reproductive system.

New Attraction – Cervical Cancer Screen – HPV Test

<div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Cervical cancer has been one of womankind’s most lethal banes, and fortunately for decades now, the Pap test has stepped in its way. Now here comes the latest in cervical cancer screens: the HPV test. With results far more reliable than the average Pap, the HPV test has elicited not a few second looks from doctors. A look at the new kid in oncology town.</span></div><h2 style="color: #202830; font-weight: normal; line-height: 14px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">HPV test vs. the Pap</span></h2><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">HPV or the human papillomavirus is the main culprit of cervical cancer. Women can get any of 100 HPV strains, 40 of which are contracted through sexual intercourse. The worst of these strains trigger malignant tumors in the cervix.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Since the 1940s, gynecologists and obstetricians have been identifying HPV viruses through the Pap. This practice certainly had a long foresight, for it hacked US cervical cancer cases to just 11,270 in 2009.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">However, the Pap is not without lapses. One Pap test may not detect all malignant cervical growths in a patient; on occasion, it takes two tests to know for sure. Likewise, the Pap can mistake otherwise normal cervical tissue changes for cancerous growths.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is markedly different with the HPV test. Once you test positive in the HPV test, you most certainly have an active HPV somewhere. Better yet, the HPV tests zero in on two strains largely responsible for triggering cervical cancer.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In a study of Indian women aged 30 to 59, published in the <em>New England Journal of Medicine</em>, the National Cancer Institute found that an HPV test done 15 – 20 years after the first sexual intercourse could accurately detect cervical cancer.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Even so, there is no such thing as an error-free cervical cancer test. Yet the HPV test, when used in combination with the Pap, can produce 99.84 percent accurate results, according to several studies from the US and Europe.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This combo has been endorsed by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the American Cancer Society and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists for 30-year old women and above. The FDA specifically recommends this to women who went through Pap tests, only to be told that their results are vague. Known in oncology parlance as ASCUS, such test results are given to three million American women every year.</span></div><h2 style="color: #202830; font-weight: normal; line-height: 14px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Frequency<strong></strong></span></h2><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Much as you want a <a href="http://healthy-lifestyle.most-effective-solution.com/" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(203, 66, 0); border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #cb4200; text-decoration: none;">healthy lifestyle</a>, you need not subject yourself to a yearly Pap test. Medical organizations encourage women to get a Pap test only every three years, more frequently for high-risk people. During this interval, the body can clear an abnormal growth even when left untreated. If you are not at high risk for cervical cancer, better wait up. You would not want the doctor to subject you to unnecessary, expensive procedures.</span></div><h2 style="color: #202830; font-weight: normal; line-height: 14px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Pap test = negative, HPV test = positive</span></h2><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Notwithstanding its perceived reliability, a positive HPV test does not always mean you have cervical cancer. To be sure, you need to take the more implacable HPV 16/18 test, which can rule out HPV’s cancer-causing strains. If you still test positive, then you would have to undergo colposcopy, wherein the doctor inserts a tubular microscope in you to get a view of the cervix and get tissue samples.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If it’s the other way around – you checked negative in the HPV test, positive in the Pap – then this is the time you should get multiple Pap tests in one year.</span></div><h2 style="color: #202830; font-weight: normal; line-height: 14px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">One-two punch</span></h2><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you checked negative from both HPV and Pap tests, then you are clear for the next three years at least. Even if you catch the HPV virus the day after the tests, chances are you would not raise your risk of getting cervical cancer until your late 50s. Therefore, a one-two punch of the HPV/Pap test may just be what you need to put your worries to rest.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In spite of it all, the resistance to change is great among doctors. Only an estimated 15 percent of them are warming to the new HPV test. It appears that they need more proof about the test’s effectiveness in detecting cervical cancer.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Some doctors find it difficult to conduct the HPV test because they still use old Pap smear technology, which is still effective. The HPV test is almost always paired with the newer liquid Pap technology. As it goes, an HPV test only needs the fluid remaining from a liquid Pap test. With older Pap tests, the doctor would need another smear to conduct an HPV test.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Consumers may not be prepared to shoulder the cost of an HPV test. At $100, the HPV test would seem like an unnecessary luxury. To date, only seven states (West Virginia, Texas, Oregon, North Carolina, New Mexico, Maryland and California) cover HPV tests.</span></div><div style="color: #39444d; line-height: 14px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Some doctors are just downright unaware. If you find your doctor still in the dark about HPV testing, speak up. Sometimes it takes a patient to enlighten a doctor about new technologies. Probe him if he or she is oblivious to HPV testing or just plain indifferent. The fight against cervical cancer is on a roll, and you cannot afford to lose out on the benefits of HPV tests.</span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
