Couples are said to be infertile when one full year of frequent unprotected sexual intercourse produces no conception. In the United States alone, about fifteen percent of couples within reproductive age have infertility. Most of the time, these couples are actually normal and would conceive given more time. In others, there are underlying causes which need medical attention to be resolved. The cause may be found in either of the couple. In the female, among other things, abnormal ova may be ovulated and in the male, abnormal sperms may be ejaculated. There could be an obstruction in the genital tract of either of the couples which may hinder the sperm and the ova from meeting and subsequently fertilizing. Some of the available methods employed in circumventing these challenges include: The induction of ovulation using hormones and/or hormone-like substances; in vitro fertilization where a special needle is passed through the vagina to the ovaries and ova harvested which is then mixed with sperm in a laboratory dish to achieve fertilization and the embryo returned to the fallopian tube after initial stages of cell division has taken place in the dish; Intracytoplasmic sperm injection where the sperm is injected directly into the cytoplasm of the ovum using a microscopically tiny pipette; and many other new methods. However, they come with certain levels of risks and dangers. These dangers include the following: MISCARRIAGE Assisted reproductive techniques come with a higher risk of miscarriages compared to normal conceptions. But it is nearly impossible to know the exact rate of these miscarriages because most of them occur very close to the time the woman would be expecting her next menses and so the miscarriage takes place without the woman’s awareness. Thus, out of the estimated thirty percent of miscarriage that occurs of all pregnancies, only half is recognized. Some medications, like clomiphene, used to induce ovulation also tend to increase the rate of miscarriage too. ECTOPIC PREGNANCY Ectopic pregnancy is the implantation of embryo outside the uterine cavity. There are suspicions that conceptions achieved through assisted reproductive techniques are associated with ectopic pregnancies. Ectopic pregnancies can cause bleeding that can be life-threatening. CHROMOSOME ABNORMALITIES Abnormalities in the number of chromosomes are more common in pregnancies achieved through assisted reproductive techniques compared to naturally-conceived pregnancies. However, the number of births with these abnormalities is less possibly because nature has a way of filtering out such pregnancies through spontaneous abortions. MULTIPLE GESTATIONS (BIRTHS) Hormones and other such substances used to induce ovulation in assisted reproductive techniques induce multiple ovulations which result to twins, triplets, quadruplets and more. The normal population has a twinning rate of around one percent but in pregnancies achieved through assisted reproductive techniques, the rate is as high as between eight and twenty five percent. IMPRINTING DEFECTS Assisted reproductive techniques, particularly intracytoplasmic injection, have been associated with interfering with normal methylation of the amino acid cytosine in certain regions of the DNA. This interference can result in imprinting defects like Angelmann syndrome or Beckwith-Wiedeman syndrome with unusual visible deformities and defects. For more updates, visit www.kingsmedics.com

Skin bleaching is the use of products like creams, soaps,pills that contains some skin whitening chemicals such as Hydroquinone, kojic acid,Glycolic acid,Vitamin C, Mecury etc, to reduce the amount of melanin in the body. These chemicals have different mechanism of action. In the society today, people tend to feel inferior or lack confidence due to the color of their skin. Thus, the need to lighten the skin.Due to the stigma surrounding bleaching, companies have become more clever with the language they use and instead, tend to use less problematic words like lightening and brightening but the devastating effects remain the same. Melanin is the pigment that darkens the skin and the iris, it is produced by the cell melanocytes, when its distribution is reduced the skin’s dark coloration is also brightened. This is the reason why most of the mechanism for bleaching targets the production or storage of the melanin. Each of the chemicals used has its own effect, although the combination of one or two of it can reduce the risk like the use of Hydroquinone and kojic acid which mildly ameliorates the effect of Hydroquinone. Consequences of bleaching Some of the consequences of these chemicals are by Disrupting the most superficial layer of the skin (stratum corneum) and are given below; Lesion of the skin Increased susceptibility of the skin to ultraviolet rays and other environmental hazards Decrease in integrity of the skin against mechanical or physical assault Compromised ability to conserve water and heat (homeostasis) Easy passage of pathogens into the body through the skin When the superficial protection of the skin is reduced, it exposes the melanocytes to UV radiation which could increase the risk of skin cancer. Also being exposed to mercury over time can cause symptoms like numbness, tingling, dizziness, forgetfulness, headaches, and depression. More severe symptoms include confusion, muscle weakness, trouble breathing, changes in vision,kidney damage and difficulty walking. Mercury poisoning requires immediate medical attention.

Alcohol intake in the society has been on the high side with its history dated back to the accident times when people just drink fermented beverages. In the society today even children of five to seven years engage in alcohol drinking if not under watch. Alcohol ranges from spirits, beers, gins, vodka etc depending on their concentration and make/brands. Its widely used for occasions, traditional rites, gift/presents etc. While alcohol intake is largely discouraged and condemned in the society by some religious movement, little attention is paid to its benefits. Some of these benefits includes: 1. Reasoning better: alcohol intake helps to excite the nervous system there by making the nervous system active and ready for every brain work which includes reasoning and reaction to situations. Generally people believe they bring out the best in themselves when they are a little high with alcohol, it improves social bonding and time spent together. Musicians always believe they have more inspiration when sipping their whiskey as they write their song lyrics. Friends when hanging out also use alcohol as their companion for better flows. 2.Forgetting your problems: some people use alcohol to shift or ignore their problems. Men that take alcohol tend not to get angry with little things that should have made an ordinary man angry, it also prevents negative emotions. Some married men use this techniques to avoid their wife's nagging and troubling attitudes at home there by making peace to reign a home some times. 3. Making connections: its often said that friends that can help you get what you want are always seen at the bars. Sometimes the help u need in life may just come from the next guy you bought drink for at the bar. Also personalities come to chill and flex at the bar, making it an avenue for the poor and the rich to meet and mingle together, sharing their problems and ambitions. 4.Reduces some disease conditions: moderate alcohol intake can be beneficial though not for everyone. Moderate drinking seems to be good for the heart and circulatory system, and probably protects against type 2 diabetes and gallstones. The argument is seen in peoples definition of moderate which sometimes misleads so many into getting drunk and harming the internal organs with excessive intake of alcohol. 5. Removes anxiety: one of the types of anxiety is social phobia which is simple fear of crowd or being around people. Alcohol can help one overcome this type of anxiety though its temporal or short term. If one continues to use alcohol to overcome this type of anxiety, it may lead to addiction.
