UTIs As You Age
Many women have experienced urinary tract infections at some time in their lives. UTIs are common and over half of all women will have at least one in their lifetime. Essentially, a UTI is an infection of the urinary tract that can include the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. The most prevalent location is the bladder.
What is Vulvodynia?
Women who suffer from pain or discomfort around the vaginal opening or vulvar region may have a condition called vulvodynia. Symptoms may include pain, burning, or irritation without any visible signs of a rash or lesions. Often times, discomfort during sexual intercourse accompanies the condition. Some women, in the absence of visible signs may try to ignore the condition. However, there are ways to diagnose and treat vulvodynia.
CPR Saves Lives
Last month, the sudden cardiac arrest of Damar Hamlin, a Buffalo Bills defensive player, captured the attention and prayers of a nation. Football fans and non-fans alike were stunned as a young healthy man in the prime of life was beset with a condition that affects over 350,000 Americans: outside-of-hospital cardiac arrest. As Mr. Hamlin’s condition steadily improved over the next week, it became obvious that sideline medical staff’s quick response saved his life.
New Year, New Goals
The month of January for many represents a chance for a fresh new start. After the excesses of the holiday season of December, many of us want to reboot our lives and focus on improving some aspect of our health we feel needs improving. Unfortunately, many of us begin to feel overwhelmed very quickly as our goals feel too ambitious. One big mistake is to set unrealistic goals and then become disillusioned and simply give up.
About Varicose Veins
The natural aging process is evident in many ways. From graying hair to sagging skin, as we move into our 40s, our bodies begin to show signs of age. Varicose veins are a common condition as we age and affect over 33 million Americans. Nearly twice as many women as men are diagnosed with varicose veins. For many, varicose veins are simply a superficial condition, but others can develop more complicated symptoms.
STDs During Covid-19 Crisis
Over the last several years Covid-19 has rightly occupied the lion’s share of public health attention. Meanwhile, other public health diseases and conditions have continued to proliferate. The CDC reported in April 2022 that decreased rates of many sexually transmitted diseases, STDs, found in the early months of the Covid-19 pandemic of 2020, resurged by the end of the same year. 2020 saw a 7 to 10 percent increase in all but one STD over the preceding year.
What is Graves Disease?
Thyroid disease affects an estimated 20 millions Americans. Many will not be aware of their condition. One such thyroid disease is Graves Disease, which is an autoimmune disease that damages the thyroid gland. Graves Disease is most commonly diagnosed in women, as are many thyroid conditions. Women are five to eight times more likely to develop thyroid disorders than men. The thyroid gland is located in the middle of the lower neck and produces the hormones that regulate the body’s metabolism.

Caregiver Stress
As our U.S. population ages, family members providing unpaid care to elderly parents has significantly increased. Primarily these caregivers are women, and a significant number also hold jobs outside of the home. When coupled with the additional responsibilities of children, the “sandwich generation” is coming to a breaking point.

Endometriosis Awareness Months
March is Endometriosis Awareness Month throughout the world. Various agencies and organizations try to inform and educate people about what endometriosis is and what help is out there for sufferers of this chronic and often times, painful disease. Endometriosis Association is a self-help organization of patients, healthcare providers, researchers, and advocates who offer information, education, support, and information about research for treatments and possible advances in cures.
Women and Acne
We’ve all been there. A dreaded pimple shows up on the morning of the job interview or the day of the special dance. What many consider to be solely a bane of teenage years may follow many into adulthood. An occasional pimple, while unpleasant at an inopportune time, is generally not considered a serious health issue. However, many will experience acne which can have an adverse effect on their physical and mental well being well into adulthood.
About Shingles
By: Timothy J. Hardy, M.D. November-03-2017 Shingles, or varicella zoster virus, is a painful viral infection that manifests as a band or strip of rash that eventually turns into a cluster of blisters. Shingles is actually a re-awakening of the chickenpox virus that many of us had as children. Many years after the varicella-zoster virus causes chickenpox, the dormant or inactive virus that lives in the nerve cells can be reactivated into shingles.
Pregnancy and COVID-19
It would be reasonable to say that no part of our lives has escaped the impact of COVID-19. The day-to-day, sometimes hour-to-hour updates of dreadful statistics, the impact of social distancing, and the economic toll has been swift and unrelenting.
Depression During Pregnancy
Depression in pregnancy or antepartum depression is an often under diagnosed condition. The perception is that pregnancy is always a time of joy and exuberant anticipation. While that is true for many, about 10 percent of pregnant women experience profound sadness, anxiety, fatigue, and hopelessness often associated with clinical depression.
Morning Sickness
Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, has in recent years bought the subject of “morning sickness” to headlines around the world. With all three of her spotlight pregnancies, Ms. Middleton’s more severe condition of hyperemesis gravidarum has heightened awareness about the topic of a fairly common symptom for many pregnant women.
Treating Hot Flashes
As the days grow longer and the temperatures start to soar, I always see an uptick in the number of women who come with complaints of hot flashes. Unfortunately for most, it’s not the rising temperature of spring and summer that is causing their discomfort. Hot flashes are a common symptom of menopause. Understanding the causes, symptoms, and treatments for hot flashes can help many women deal with this common symptom of menopause.
Guarding Against Sun Damage
As the days grow longer and warmer, many of us look forward to spending more time outdoors. Whether it’s relaxing at the beach or doing outdoor chores, guarding against the damage caused by the sun is important. When I was growing up, sunscreen was hardly ever used and was often promoted as a way to get an even darker tan. Fast forward a few decades and most of us recognize that “tan” is a euphemism for sun damage.
Do You Have Hypertension?
As women age and move into menopause, hypertension or high blood pressure can be a significant danger to their health. Unfortunately many women are unaware that they even have hypertension as often times, there are no symptoms. This common yet unrecognized condition can lead to strokes, heart attacks, and premature death if left untreated.
Medications in Pregnancy
Most women know that pregnancy brings many changes to their lives. It’s common knowledge that abstaining from alcohol, cigarettes, and illicit drugs is crucial during pregnancy. Fetal development, particularly in the 1st trimester, is very susceptible to the adverse affects of these chemicals. However, fewer women are aware of the vulnerability of the fetus to common medications including over-the-counter medicines to treat everything from minor pain and common illnesses like colds and flus.
Diagnosing and Treating BV
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a condition that occurs when there is too much of a certain bacteria in the vagina. This overgrowth changes the normal balance of bacteria naturally found in the vagina. Women in their reproductive years are most likely to get bacterial vaginosis, but it can affect women of any age. Researchers do not know the cause of BV or how some women get it. We do know that the infection typically occurs in sexually active women.
Diagnosing and Treating Lupus
A few months ago, I wrote about the prevalence of autoimmune diseases in women. Lupus is one such disease that disproportionally affects women. In fact, 9 in 10 lupus patients are women, primarily affecting women in the reproductive years between 15 and 44. Lupus is a chronic disease and like other autoimmune diseases involves the body attacking various tissues and organs. As with many diseases, severity and symptoms vary from patient to patient.
Plasma DNA methylation: a potential biomarker for stratification of liver fibrosis in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
The main aim of the present study was to ask if differential DNA methylation at the PPARγ promoter can be detected within the pool of cell-free DNA of human plasma and if so then do levels of methylation at this loci correlate with fibrosis stage in NASH. While there is unquestionably a role for gene polymorphisms in the progression of NASH to fibrosis there is also strong evidence for the involvement of lifestyle factors (age, diet, exercise, other comorbidities and so on).
Global burden of NAFLD and NASH: trends, predictions, risk factors and prevention
Key Points As a consequence of the pandemic spread of obesity, NAFLD is one of the most important causes of liver disease worldwide in adults and children, although some patients are lean Global prevalence of NAFLD is estimated at 24%; the highest rates are reported from South America and the Middle East, followed by Asia, the USA and Europe The large volume of patients sets NAFLD apart from other liver disease, meaning the major focus of clinical care is discerning those at highest risk of...
Plasma DNA methylation: a potential biomarker for stratification of liver fibrosis in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

Plasma DNA methylation: a potential biomarker for stratification of liver fibrosis in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
Objective Liver biopsy is currently the most reliable way of evaluating liver fibrosis in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Its inherent risks limit its widespread use. Differential liver DNA methylation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR?) gene promoter has recently been shown to stratify patients in terms of fibrosis severity but requires access to liver tissue.
