			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Women tend to fritter half their lives trying not to get pregnant and then when they decide they are prepared, they find out it is not always that easy to conceive. In efforts to prevent pregnancy, women nowadays use oral contraceptives, hormonal patches, condoms and numerous other birth control methods. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
When it comes to hormonal contraceptives, the best bet is to complete the current cycle and then attempt to get pregnant. After the cycle, attempts can be made to start getting pregnant even though it may be advisable to wait for the first normal menstrual period after stop taking the pills. But this precaution is not necessary. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Some women conceive in a week or two after stopping birth control pills. It is recommended to complete the cycle so they do not have irregular bleeding. In general, the center of the month is when ovulation and potentially conception are most probable to take place, so the best fertile window is a couple of weeks after stopping contraception. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
An important point to think is that if there has been a previous pregnancy or miscarriage, wait about three months to provide the body a chance to recover. This is where a waiting period makes sense.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Preparation before pregnancy<br />&#13;<br />
Other types of contraception, the intrauterine device must be removed before a woman starts attempting to conceive. Couples can just stop using condoms when they are ready to conceive. If the person is planning to become pregnant, it is ideal to have a full menstrual cycle before trying to conceive. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
One can more accurately calculate the fetus&#8217;s age by counting from the first day of the last menstrual period before became pregnant.  The total time it takes for a woman&#8217;s full fertility to return after stopping birth control varies for all women and depends on the birth control method she is using. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
The ability to get pregnant gradually decreases as per age, starting at age 25. Poor health and irregular periods may also decrease the fertility. After stopping any form of birth control, one may have a more difficult time getting pregnant simply because of older age than when started using birth control. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Plan it wise<br />&#13;<br />
If the person is planning to become pregnant, it is a good idea to start taking a multivitamin that contains folic acid. Taking this vitamin in early pregnancy can reduce the chances of having a baby with certain birth defects. After stopping birth control pills, one might expect to get pregnant as soon as the next cycle or not for another 3-6 months.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Having a baby is one of the most important times in your life. So, it’s important to ensure that you and your partner are in optimum health. Making a few lifestyle and nutritional changes now will not only help boost your chances of conceiving but may also help to give your unborn baby a good start in life. </p>
<p>And remember it’s not only a woman’s responsibility – men need to do their fair share too! So, here to help you on your way is the Sanatogen His &amp; Hers 8-point fertility checklist with fertility expert Dr Chris Steele.  </p>
<p>1.    A good diet</p>
<p>Both mums and dads-to-be should make sure they’re eating a healthy well-balanced diet. A poor diet is known to affect both the quality and quantity of a man’s sperm &#8211; men should ensure they are eating plenty of foods rich in vitamin C, found in oranges, and zinc found in baked beans, lean mince meat, diary produce e.g. milk, cereals, breads etc.  Both men and women’s diets should include plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, protein-rich food such as fish, poultry or pulses, and whole grains. Now is the time for both of you to quit the junk food! Once you’re pregnant, avoid certain fish such as marlin, shark and swordfish, as well as liver and alcohol.</p>
<p>2.    Take a supplement</p>
<p>It’s not always easy to get all the right vitamins and minerals through diet alone whilst trying to conceive, so why not try a ProNatal supplement. Knowing which supplement and multivitamin to take before, during and after pregnancy can be confusing. Try taking an all in one combined supplement tailor made for men and women such as Sanatogen ProNatal His &amp; Hers.  </p>
<p>3.    Timing &amp; Lying</p>
<p>The day you ovulate and those days immediately before and after are the best times to conceive, as your eggs can only survive 12-24 hrs after release, whereas sperm can survive for 3-5 days inside the cervix, womb and fallopian tubes.  Your most fertile day is 14 days before the first day of your next period.  Many women think it is 14 days since their last period and count forward but this is wrong – you need to count back.  If you have a regular cycle this is easy to calculate but if your cycle is irregular it becomes very difficult.  And, ideally you should be having intercourse two days before this day, on the day, and 2 days after.  </p>
<p>After intercourse do not get up and go to the loo. Lie in bed as long as possible as this gives sperm a chance to find the cervix, work their way up through the interior of the womb, and spread into both fallopian tubes. </p>
<p>4.    High anxiety and stress</p>
<p>High anxiety and stress levels are known to affect both fertility and pregnancy.  So if you’re working hard, staying up late or constantly trying to meet high-pressured deadlines, make positive changes to reduce some of the stresses in your life. Why not think about taking a yoga class, use a relaxation CD or go for a long walk.</p>
<p>5.    Smoking &amp; alcohol</p>
<p>Excessive alcohol intake and smoking are bad news for a healthy sperm production.  So both you and your partner should quit smoking and say goodbye to those party nights.</p>
<p>6.    Exercise</p>
<p>Take regular gentle exercise &#8211; aim for three 30-minute sessions each week. Why not try walking, swimming or cycling.</p>
<p>7.    Drugs and medication</p>
<p>If you or your partner need to take any medication make sure you tell you’re GP that you’re trying for a baby.</p>
<p>8.    Discussing the issues</p>
<p>And last but not least, before you both start actively trying, it might help to discuss some of the potential issues that could arise from having a baby.  These might include; how will a child change your lifestyle, what are your attitudes to raising a child, will either of you give up work and how will you cope financially?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you feel you may have become pregnant or indeed feeling or seeing the early signs of pregnancy, you will want to ascertain definitively whether you are pregnant or not. This will enable you to start your planning and seeking professional pre-natal care at the earliest opportunity. Either a pregnancy blood test or a home pregnancy kit will determine this for you.</p>
<p>Pregnancy test kits can be bought at practically at any retail store, grocery store or in mega stores like the Target or Walmart. Buying bulk pregnancy tests costs less but give same results like the well packaged pregnancy tests.</p>
<p>Companies Manufacturing Test Kits</p>
<p>Because implantation usually happens 6-12 days after ovulation, it is possible that you are testing too early, too soon. Various home pregnancy test manufacturers advertise their product as being foolproof. Clearblue Easy publishes on its website that Clearblue Easy can be used as early at 4 days before you expect your period, about 5 days sooner than waiting until you miss your period to test.</p>
<p>What Is The Best Time To Take A Pregnancy Test?</p>
<p>The HCG hormone secretion follows the fertilization of the eggs and placement of the embryo to the uterus. Medical experts choose this span of pregnancy when fertilization takes place as the best time to take the pregnancy test. The period after one week of missed period is identified as the phase when the embryo gets attached to the uterus and is considered the best possible stage of pregnancy to take the pregnancy test. However, building up of the HCG concentration can vary from one person to another.</p>
<p>Each home pregnancy test has a certain sensitivity to the pregnancy hormone hCG. This hormone is produced by the placenta after the embryo attaches itself to the uterine wall. The detection of this hormone is what makes pregnancy tests positive. There is no way to know of course when the embryo will attach itself, so by performing pregnancy tests too early you stand a good chance of getting a negative result when you really are pregnant.</p>
<p>When to take a pregnancy test is important, because if you test too early in your pregnancy, there may not yet be enough of the pregnancy hormone in the urine to provide a positive test result. Most of the home pregnancy tests will be 90% accurate if you wait and test yourself one day after your missed period is due. If you feel you are pregnant but the home pregnancy test is negative, repeat the test again in a week if you still have not had your period. And if you are still getting negative test results and think you are pregnant, be sure and see your health care provider right away.</p>
<p>Delivery Date</p>
<p>At this stage, pregnancy test routine is performed to know the due date or delivery date. Normally a pregnancy lasts for an average of 266 days from the date of conception. The doctors add 280 days to the date of first day of the last menstrual period to know about the due date or the delivery date. The actual delivery date can, however, be two weeks before or after the due date, calculated by the doctor.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Becoming a mother is one of the most exciting times in a woman&#8217;s life. It can also be one of the most overwhelming times in a woman&#8217;s life as well. Trying to conceive, finding out about unexpected pregnancy, how to an unborn child healthy, preparing for labor and bringing baby home can all be stressful if you don&#8217;t know what to expect or how to go about taking care of them. Learning what you can do before, during, and after pregnancy to give your baby a healthy start at life is the best thing any mother to be can do.</p>
<p>&#13;If you and your partner are having trouble getting pregnant it can be very frustrating and upsetting. There are many things you can do to improve your chances of conception. Fertility supplements, changing your diet, learning to calculate ovulation, and learning to figure out your basal body temperature (BBT) can all help you determine when you most fertile and help you become more fertile.</p>
<p>&#13;Once you are pregnant you are going to want to take a prenatal vitamin. Choose one that is high in folic acid. Taking folic acid during conception and early in pregnancy helps to prevent birth defects of the brain and spinal cord. You will also want to choose a doctor to help with prenatal care. There are many different choices in health care, make sure you put thought into what kind you would like and what will be best for you. Obstetricians, family practitioners, and midwives, are the most popular.</p>
<p>&#13;Every mother to be is going to experience pregnancy symptoms. The discomforts of morning sickness, cramps, swelling, stretch marks, and varicose veins. Do a little research to find the best treatment for your symptoms. Saltine crackers and smelling a green apple is good tricks for alleviating morning sickness. Since you are eating for two now make sure that you are getting the best diet you can to ensure your giving your unborn child the best nutrients you can.</p>
<p>&#13;Make sure you get exercise to health stay healthy during your pregnancy. Going for walks and doing prenatal yoga will be best. If you plan to work during your pregnancy make sure that your job is going to be a safe place for you to be. Make sure you are not breathing toxins, lifting heavy objects, doing strenuous activities, or getting too stressed out at work. This could all cause complications during your pregnancy.</p>
<p>&#13;Other factors that may affect your pregnancy or cause complications are thyroid disease, asthma, lupus, obesity during pregnancy, hypertension, west nile virus, kidney disease, fibromyalgia, and Hughes syndrome. If you are getting periods during your pregnancy there is not to much worry unless it is in the 9th month. Then it could be placenta previa or placental abruption.</p>
<p>&#13;Preterm labor or early labor can cause problems too. Incompetent cervix could be the cause and in that case most doctors may put the woman on bed rest. Early labor can cause a low birth weight which causes problems later on in the future. Too low amniotic fluid or too much amniotic fluid can cause problems as well. Learn the signs and how to treat it to prevent it from happening.</p>
<p>&#13;Pica is a condition where you have cravings for dirt, clay, chalk, or even hair. Pickles and ice cream is normal, dirt and clay are not. It is a compulsive eating disorder that can occur in pregnancy that causes cravings for non food items. It can cause serious complications in pregnancy if any non food items are consumed.</p>
<p>&#13;If you having many concerns about your pregnancy talking to the health care provider that you have chosen could be the best thing you could do. Mothers are also great for advice, friends and other family who have also experienced pregnancy and raising children will also be of great help. Lots of informational websites are online as well to research any and everything imaginable about pregnancy.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I. Definition<br />Infertility is defined as inability of a couple to conceive after 12 months of unprotected sexual intercourse or can not carry the pregnancy to full term. It effects over 5 millions couple alone in the U. S. and many times more in the world, because of unawareness of treatments, only 10% seeks help from professional specialist. In fact, More than 40% of infertility of a couple is caused by male inability to fertilize. Diagnosis is a analytics approach, after initial consultation and medical history and personal information have been taken from a patient or couple. The main objective conventional diagnosis is to find the causes of infertility, but unfortunately, it has less than 1% successful rate. We will try to give you the definitions of type of diagnosis used .</p>
<p>I. Medical history and physical exams<br />Before reading the definition of types of diagnosis, you may want to know briefly what information is recorded on your personal file<br />I. General medical history<br />1. Any miscarriage, previous pregnancies and abortion.<br />2. Any ectopic pregnancy<br />3. Any previous surgery<br />4. Have you now on HRT.<br />5. Use of conceptive method, type of use<br />6. Any reproductive chronic pain including STD. urinary tract infection ad chronic diseases.<br />7. Medication you are taking now<br />8. Any medication of your mother during pregnancy to rule out infertility caused by birth defect<br />9. Your lifestyle.</p>
<p>II. Physical Exam<br />a) Testicle related including injure, childhood testicle illness and abnormal in birth<br />b) Age of puberty<br />c) Number of previous sexual partners<br />d) Question related to ejaculation and impotence<br />e) Do you have child with other women<br />f) Have you ever contacted and treated with sexual transmitted diseases<br />g) Hot bath<br />h) Smoking and drugs abuse<br />i) Expose to radiation<br />j) workplace hazard<br />k) Medication may influence your sexual organs.<br />l) Other general exam depending to your specialist (herbalist or others)</p>
<p>III. Male Infertility Diagnosis<br />1. Acrosome reaction test<br />After the sample is taken your fertility specialist exam the acrosome reaction of your sperms to see how your sperm penetrate the female egg, how the enzymes (acrosome then acrosin released from the sperm head ) in sperm work through tough coating of the eggs and fgertilized it. The purpose of this test is to diagnosis the sperm acrosome then acrosin to see hoe these enzyme help to break tough surface of the egg. If not it may be the cause of infertility and specific treatment is required. It happens only 5% of infertility male population.</p>
<p>2. Antisperm antibody<br />An antisperm antibody test as defined as a test to look for abnormal function of immune system antibodies that fight against a male&#8217;s sperm in blood, vaginal fluids, or semen. With a substance added to the sample sperm, the test will tell whether the sperm is affected by proteins of the immune system or not.</p>
<p>3. Biochemical analysis<br />The study of the chemical substances and vital processes occur in male testicle such as the concentration of white blood cells, the level of fructose in the semen, and the volume, pH, and liquefaction.</p>
<p>4. Computer-Assist semen analysis<br />The sample of sperm is scanned in to the computer pre store program to show how the sperm quality, quantity, shape and movement. Since any small change of the computer may produce a significant change in sperm calculation, therefore any abnormal sperm count should be confirmed by manual count.</p>
<p>5. Hemizona assay<br />Hemizona assay is the analysis to compare sample sperm of the male to the sperm of the fertilized male by splitting the mature and normal egg into 2 half. 1/2 is tested by sample sperm and the other half is tested by fertilized male sperm.</p>
<p>6. Hormone evaluation<br />Hormonal evaluation is a study to measure the levels of certain hormones produced by your body such as levels of FSH and testosterone which are involved directly in sperm production. The test will only be used if the semen of sperm analysis comes back with low density of sperm or your specialist suspects that hormone imbalance is the cause of infertility.</p>
<p>7. Human zona pellucida binding test<br />The testes help to exam how the sperm bind to outer layer of the egg including hemizona assay.</p>
<p>8. Hypoosmotic swelling test (HOST)<br />hypoosmotic swelling test (HOST) is the test used to identify sperm membrane for structure integrity by examining how the sperm tails react to special sugar and salt. Only healthy sperm can react in that circumstance.</p>
<p>9. Pene trak<br />Pene trak is the test for 90 minutes to check the movement of sperm through a normal and friendly mucus in the test tube.</p>
<p>10. Peroxidase staining<br />It is a test to check for infection by differentiating white blood cell from the immature sperm.</p>
<p>11.Post-coital/cervical mucus test<br />It is a test to see how friendly the mucus of the cervix toward the sperm invasion a few days before and after ovulation. The result can be determined after<br />a) Male partner sperm with female partner cervical mucus<br />b) Male partner sperm with healthy mucus<br />c) Known healthy sperm with female partner mucus<br />d) Known healthy sperm with known healthy muscle</p>
<p>12. Sperm penetration assay (hamster test)<br />Sperm penetration test only is needed if the normal semen test can not determine the sperm penetration ability then hamster eggs with the ouster membrane has been stripped off are used in place of female eggs because of it&#8217;s structural similarity to human eggs. After the sperm and hamster eggs have incubated for three hours, the eggs are checked for sperm penetration. Any percentage over 10 % is considered normal and potential for fertilization. Since it is used eggs other than human being, good sperm penetration rate in hamster test does not guarantee 100% of positive result in human.</p>
<p>13.Sperm-Ubiquitin tag immunoassay (SUTI)<br />Sperm-Ubiquitin tag immunoassay ignores other sperm attributes and focus solely on sperm&#8217;s ubiquitin because ubiquitin is considered as a universal marker of any sperm abnormalities including sperm damage and sperm defective, thereby reducing some unnecessary treatments.</p>
<p>14. Semen analysis<br />A semen analysis is usually the first test for all infertility male , it helps to measure the amount of semen a man produces and determines the quantity and quality of sperm such as size, shape. movement and PH level in the sample.<br />a) Normal form sperm<br />Ovary head, single tail with intact midsection and an uncoiled.<br />b) Abnormal heads<br />Head of sperm if too big or too small and other than ovary head.<br />c) Abnormal tails<br />Coil, broken, bent tail and other than single tail.<br />d) Immature gen cells<br />Since white blood cells and white gen cells have a very similar appearance and structure, it is up to the specialist to make sure that the present is immature gen cells and not white blood cells.<br />e) Vital staining<br />It is the analysis to see the percentage of dead sperm compare to lice one.</p>
<p>15. Scrotal sonography<br />Scotal sonography is used to evaluate the testicle disorder and surrounding organs including prostate gland, epididymis, an absent or undescended testicle and any testicle abnormality.</p>
<p>16. Testicle biopsy<br />A small sample is taken and tested for the ability of sperm producing cellsl in normal cells production. This test is necessary if the infertility male is found to have no sperm in semen, normal sex levels of hormone and abnormal sperm with unknown cause. The risk of the test may cause testicle damage.</p>
<p>17. Vasography<br />Vasography is a Radiographic study of the vas deferens. It helps to determine if the vas deferens is blocked or not and the reason of such blockage. In this study, if there is large amount of sperm containing fluid presented when the vas deferens is open, it indicates there is a block appeared in the vesicle end of the vas deferens.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>MODE of Cosmic Therapy: Theme of Life Disclosed Who, What, Where, How, Why, when</p>
<p>In the midst of your ever non-stopping planning, contriving evolving human mind&#8217;s bent of preferred desired &#8216;hopes and aspirations&#8217; snared momentum, a subtle sacred sexual artistic force of underlying determined intent (directly in opposition to you) operates bafflingly nudging you into</p>
<p>a precarious position &#8216;not yet known&#8217; to you. Why else do you think you have such unsettling energy? Though the opposition is relevant to your presupposed walk, you are not in tune with its turbulent force but are trying to pull against it.</p>
<p>While you are busily engaged, trying to push your way though to a certain set destination or favored outcome, this unrelenting force never wavers or falters in its ubiquitous result. Its proposed outcome is far more than you can begin to imagine or envision since your sight is limited and controlled by memory. IT will do what it wills with your life as a varnished vehicle of transformative experience with you, as either a conscious or unconscious participant; it matters little which way you ride.</p>
<p>However, if you for one moment doubt the magnanimous fortitude in precise execution of this undeniable silent sexual force, look around! The momentous creative impetus behind this inescapable original force [pervading in you] has provided for you and every other individual the lung capacity in which to breathe every breath for every living human you will encounter and in those you will not.</p>
<p>IT is undoubtedly sublimely sexual in nature. IT reigns supreme. IT does not ask nor respect your wishes or commands in any sense of the word. IT knows you are fickle, double-minded, unsure, changeable and wishy-washy at best and totally inconsistent and contrarily rebellious, at worst.</p>
<p>IT complacently side steps your every whim and whimper without as much as a casual glance. Why? Because you are irreconcilably inconsistent with each word you speak. Vainglorious and high and mighty, you prey on the delicacies of others to suit and soothe your wounded pride and/or exaggerated appetite for flattery.</p>
<p>You are so identified with your newest gadget, romance, interest, pleasure and/or moment&#8217;s interest; you are incapable of sustaining one five minutes of true unadulterated focused objective. How can this be so when you believe with all of your heart and mind that you WANT something so bad</p>
<p>and you KNOW what that specific want is? HA!!! IF this be so: define it! Lay it out on the table in exact and precise measure. Line, color, dimension, proportion, smell, taste, texture, sense, sound in complete sexual fury. State unequivocally without hesitation or cause for reflection exactly and precisely just how you desire the thing of supposed craving. Let it rip! Give it to me. Convince me with words of spoken ecstasy. Can&#8217;t you do it? I didn&#8217;t think so.</p>
<p>IF what you want really matters to you, you will not be able to bring it about. Did you hear what I just said? If what you yearn for genuinely matters to you, you can not have it. Do You understand the disassociated magical premise in this esoteric concept? When you are so identified with an object, person, project, dream, place, or thing you are obstructing its manifestation. You are causing the inertness of the object to become electrified by biased emotional desire which inhibits its materialization.</p>
<p>Why? Because the thing you so immediately desire is no longer the object itself but has taken on the ambiguities of you. Wow! Now let&#8217;s talk about the cumbersomeness of that reality.</p>
<p>And, since you can&#8217;t release the idea of your wonderful self for even one instant, the &#8216;desire&#8217; loses its motionless potentiality to take on the irascible contrariness of you in fullness. You don&#8217;t know the first thing about commitment or actualization non-reservedly. You are helpless when it comes to &#8216;letting something go&#8217;. You cling to an idea as if your life was riding on the essence of its arrival. Not so.</p>
<p>You will try to decipher the direction; course and appearance of the object (person, place or thing) instead of letting it form its own route and avenue of delivery. Every time you place a thought behind it, (thwarted intent) because of your emotional up and down roller coaster life, you cause disturbance in its form. Understand? You can not care about it. It ceases to be what it was going to be the moment you contrive an action behind it. Speak it as if you are totally disinterested and then leave it alone. Allow the magic to unfold as it will!</p>
<p>Words are the single most powerful use in force to objectify the manifestation of any self-willed desire. But, these profound sacred words can in no wise be attached to you. How do you accomplish this? By remembering how to be ruthless and recklessly uninformed! Forget that you ever even</p>
<p>uttered the sounds of the words themselves. No other way will the materialization take place. I can not emphasize these sentences to you enough. If you believe you can make something happen of your own accord, you are a fool&#8217;s fool and an indigent fool&#8217;s fool. You are incapable of sustaining your own breath much less the visualization of an incomparable creative sexual force.</p>
<p>What you are dealing with is impersonal and totally irrefutably destructive. IT will destroy all that which interferes in its inherent aim. IT will never intervene on your behalf. IT is not interested in you in the least. IT acts strictly from a motivation of which you are incapable of perceiving much less influencing. IT possesses an inherent divine blueprint of origin in its celestial force and it will definitely not bend the rules of which governs its selective ineffable journey. In other words, IT will not get with you; you must get with it. You were born with this intrinsic sacred sexual creative force and it shall maneuver your life in any way it chooses. It knows what you have need of before you ask so all praying for this thing or that thing is foolish and condescending. Your feet decide the path; be content thereof!</p>
<p>Though it created the unimaginable force of which it manipulates, it will never interfere nor break the laws of which were originally instituted. IT is bound by a higher law of manifestation and will not succumb to the wiles and wherefores of human dialectic charm. In other words, it is bound to the laws of the game it invented. You are, however, given subtle hints, clues, omens, signs, and symbols along the course of your life to follow, deny or dismiss.</p>
<p>What you choose to with these elements of celestial design is totally up to your discretion as long as you don&#8217;t take it personal or think you are in any way persuading the outcome. Sort of like the chemical reaction of the blending of salt and water; dissolution takes place regardless of how much definitive arguing or verbose commentary could be offered to the contrary.</p>
<p>Do scientists study charts? Do mathematicians rely on formulas? Do doctors calculate diseases based on bodily utility in as much as they are aware of its functioning? Do various philosophers assign arbitrary laws to nature in due course? Do human beings impregnate other human beings with a force subjective to ovulation cycles? So too must you find that which works for you and work it to the hilt unaffected by the outcome.</p>
<p>Omnificent Sexual creative energy is available for use but not for misuse. Although it appears as if it is, IT clearly is not. Nothing can be wrought about without the divine intent behind it. Accept these facts, first and foremost. Nothing is out of order. Ever. No time. Never! Whatever</p>
<p>is designed in, of and for your life is determinedly fixed and will not be taken from or denied you. If you choose to make up stories of delicate fabrication to save face, pretend to engage in self-maintained excellence, or act like you possess some excellent power of magical influence, knock yourself out. But, the truth remains; you in no way alter the pre-determined divine course set for you by any of your ego ridden majestic actions and entertaining elaborations.</p>
<p>Unless you can impersonally objectively non-discriminately sustain a remark without a single thought attached to it, you are retardedly incapable of manifesting a valid punch line in a good joke. Ok. So what&#8217;s the bottom line? Investigate the esoteric arts and sciences for further insight. They could possibly offer you some compelling discerning information. Starting with astrology: have your natal chart erected. Discover possible intriguing sexual elements in your life that might just be relevant to you. Who knows? Stranger things than this have occurred in this old world.</p>
<p>I, Paula Andrea Pyle, MA Founder/Director Executive Cosmic Therapist of M.O.D.E. International School of Esoteric Arts and Sciences www.modeofcosmictherapyschoolofesotericartsandsciences.com will add a few adjacent astrological tidbits of relevant MODE information should you be so inclined to scrutinize their significance in your life. (You must have at least an inkling of understanding and be somewhat familiar with a natal chart before any of these attributes will mean anything to you) Sort of like knowing universal symbols in dreams in order for them to resonate.</p>
<p>Furthermore, IF you are really interested and so inclined, you will search out the answers for yourself for your particular life&#8217;s course and unfolding destination. You are an incredibly passionate artistic energetically sexually erotic human being who will not be satisfied to be placated with toys of inferior meaning. Find out what truly does &#8216;turn you on&#8217;. IT&#8217;s the only thing going!!!!1. Within the 12 houses of an astrological natal chart, there will be one segment which is emphasized more than any of the others. (Whether that be with a stellium [more than three] planets occupying that house or a direct link to that house because of the sun moon ascendant spliced</p>
<p>activity associated) Note this one sphere of activity. You will no doubt live most of your life with the added emphasis of the traits and elements connected with this accented domain. No holds barred. This is a non disputable fact of life on earth. Don&#8217;t try to envy or imitate another person&#8217;s life when your allocated house does not show the prominence there.</p>
<p>2. A particular sacred unified sexual force operates in your life without question, comment or remark. You are sexually driven beyond your human control to achieve a specified experience. You will be subjected to those areas of artistic impetus, creation and stirring erotic impulses of manifestation under the polarity of the planet ruling the ascendant in conjunction with the north node&#8217;s influence. Meaning: the theme will be discovered by and through the combination of this indelible relationship.</p>
<p>3. Your life is plotted by and through a vehement frame of reference displayed openly through the way the planets are positioned in your chart. You will not operate outside the boundaries of this domain no matter how much you&#8217;d like to believe otherwise. Trying to change the course of direction in your path is like trying to change the color of your eyes. It just aint gonna happen, captain!</p>
<p>4. Wherever the sun shines in your chart, there will be tremendous secrets disclosed and hidden. You will embark upon a nebulous scavenger hunt to unravel these clues for proper understanding accompanied by the wisdom attached to the numerous unexplained painful events placed therein. You will also find the needed insight available for pertinent relationships that seem inexplicable in rational terms located by the placement of your part of fortune in sign and degree connected to the sun. Hook it up like the caboose on a train. Got it?</p>
<p>5. The moon&#8217; space offers for you an uncanny indefinable journey of psychological foreboding. A place where you stumble, fall, get snatched up and tossed down, laced with arsenic ego for utter emotional destruction, troubled, snared, deceived distracted and transformed. It is your preverbal hell on earth. So shall you rise from the dead in this sphere of incalculable activity. {Just try to skirt around this comet swamp}The moon receives its divine orders from the sun! Deception lulls you to sleep if not notably careful in your pissy ass approach.</p>
<p>6. To fully integrate the information from the natal chart you will also need to know that Saturn tells you When something is going to happen. While Uranus says What is going to take place. Jupiter will disclose Why and Pluto shows you How. Neptune always indicates Where and Venus says</p>
<p>Who. Mercury covers the distinctive purpose but only when combined with Mars.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve have covered quite a bit of esoteric material today. My sole intent is for you to get in touch with the dazzling undeniable stirring sexual creative force in you that demands your undivided attention. Stop acting like you are not interested in those things you can&#8217;t explain. You are sitting in the front row of that sanctified occult class, remember?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Pregnancy is a difficult phase but it is the most beautiful too.

However, please be sure to consult your doctor about any unusual symptoms that you witness unusual because some symptoms may indicate serious complications in pregnancy. </p>
<p><strong>1 to 4 weeks </strong></p>
<p> You still are not pregnant in week 1. Pregnancy is calculated from the first day of your period. Your fertile period will begin at the end of the second week when you ovulate. You should be pregnant by the third week. You however, do not feel anything until you miss your period. Some women have implantation bleeding during this time. </p>
<p><strong>Weeks 5 to 8 </strong></p>
<p> You&#8217;ve lost your period. You start to feel really pregnant. A urine test confirmed her pregnancy. You are experiencing pregnancy symptoms like mood swings, nausea, tender breasts, lower abdomen and cramps etc. Your bundle of joy is now really only a few tiny cells. In its 7th week, your pregnancy is confirmed beyond any doubt. Start looking for the various medical tests may be required after consultation with the doctor. You baby is growing very fast now! Your uterus is expanding-you can feel the stretch. </p>
<p><strong>Weeks 9 to 14 </strong></p>
<p> You should start gaining weight now. You will notice that you are visiting the toilet very often! The fetus has begun the development of most organs, especially notable in the limbs that appear buds! Many of the side effects of pregnancy such as morning sickness, will have disappeared. Your baby is growing rather than developing new parts. All major organs have formed your baby. You can hear the heartbeat of all that time. </p>
<p><strong>Weeks 15 to 23 </strong></p>
<p> This is the best part of their gestation period. You are in the second quarter. Life will be much simpler and all pregnancy symptoms have disappeared &#8230; You may feel your baby moving &#8211; more like a tickle! You are getting stronger now. Be careful about your sleeping posture and shoes. Your baby probably has hair, teeth, all its organs have formed &#8230; will start growing with each passing day. </p>
<p><strong>Weeks 24 to 33 </strong></p>
<p> What was that? Yes, you can get a few contractions during this time. Not to worry, your body is preparing for a normal delivery. Start planning your maternity application. You will need to finalize its work very soon. Take special care of the back and knees. You tend to lose balance easily. You have entered the third trimester of pregnancy. Your baby has perfectly formed fingernails. It can react to sounds and touch too! Your baby is too large to move freely now. Movements are limited other than a few pokes! </p>
<p><strong>34 to 39 weeks </strong></p>
<p> You are almost there. Life seems slow and cumbersome, and now you can not wait to see your baby &#8230; maintain for a few more days! Your baby is fully developed and have high chances of survival even if it decides to enter the world ahead of schedule! The time has come, it could happen any day now. Take rest. You need the energy after your little darling is born! Your baby is ready, it must be very clever, and never know when it decides to push! Organize the elements of nursing, such as dresses, nursing bras, baby cloths etc. for the next future needs. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I. Definition<br />Infertility is defined as inability of a couple to conceive after 12 months of unprotected sexual intercourse or can not carry the pregnancy to full term. It effects over 5 millions couple alone in the U. S. and many times more in the world, because of unawareness of treatments, only 10% seeks help from professional specialist. In fact, More than 40% of infertility of a couple is caused by male inability to fertilize. Diagnosis is a analytics approach, after initial consultation and medical history and personal information have been taken from a patient or couple. The main objective conventional diagnosis is to find the causes of infertility, but unfortunately, it has less than 1% successful rate. We will try to give you the definitions of type of diagnosis in alphabet order.</p>
<p>I. Medical history and physical exams<br />Before reading the definition of types of diagnosis, you may want to know briefly what information is recorded on your personal file<br />I. General medical history<br />1. Any miscarriage, previous pregnancies and abortion.<br />2. Any ectopic pregnancy<br />3. Any previous surgery<br />4. Have you now on HRT.<br />5. Use of conceptive method, type of use<br />6. Any reproductive chronic pain including STD. urinary tract infection ad chronic diseases.<br />7. Medication you are taking now<br />8. Any medication of your mother during pregnancy to rule out infertility caused by birth defect<br />9. Your lifestyle.</p>
<p>II. Physical Exam<br />a) Testicle related including injure, childhood testicle illness and abnormal in birth<br />b) Age of puberty<br />c) Number of previous sexual partners<br />d) Question related to ejaculation and impotence<br />e) Do you have child with other women<br />f) Have you ever contacted and treated with sexual transmitted diseases<br />g) Hot bath<br />h) Smoking and drugs abuse<br />i) Expose to radiation<br />j) workplace hazard<br />k) Medication may influence your sexual organs.<br />l) Other general exam depending to your specialist (herbalist or others)</p>
<p>III. Male Infertility Diagnosis<br />1. Acrosome reaction test<br />After the sample is taken your fertility specialist exam the acrosome reaction of your sperms to see how your sperm penetrate the female egg, how the enzymes (acrosome then acrosin released from the sperm head ) in sperm work through tough coating of the eggs and fertilized it. The purpose of this test is to diagnosis the sperm acrosome then acrosin to see hoe these enzyme help to break tough surface of the egg. If not it may be the cause of infertility and specific treatment is required. It happens only 5% of infertility male population.</p>
<p>2. Antisperm antibody<br />An antisperm antibody test as defined as a test to look for abnormal function of immune system antibodies that fight against a male&#8217;s sperm in blood, vaginal fluids, or semen. With a substance added to the sample sperm, the test will tell whether the sperm is affected by proteins of the immune system or not.</p>
<p>3. Biochemical analysis<br />The study of the chemical substances and vital processes occur in male testicle such as the concentration of white blood cells, the level of fructose in the semen, and the volume, pH, and liquefaction time of the ejaculate.</p>
<p>4. Computer-Assist semen analysis<br />The sample of sperm is scanned in to the computer pre store program to show how the sperm quality, quantity, shape and movement. Since any small change of the computer may produce a significant change in sperm calculation, therefore any abnormal sperm count should be confirmed by manual count.</p>
<p>5. Hemizona assay<br />Hemizona assay is the analysis to compare sample sperm of the male to the sperm of the fertilized male by splitting the mature and normal egg into 2 half. 1/2 is tested by sample sperm and the other half is tested by fertilized male sperm.</p>
<p>6. Hormone evaluation<br />Hormonal evaluation is a study to measure the levels of certain hormones produced by your body such as levels of FSH and testosterone which are involved directly in sperm production. The test will only be used if the semen of sperm analysis comes back with low density of sperm or your specialist suspects that hormone imbalance is the cause of infertility.</p>
<p>7. Human zona pellucida binding test<br />The testes help to exam how the sperm bind to outer layer of the egg including hemizona assay.</p>
<p>8. Hypoosmotic swelling test (HOST)<br />hypoosmotic swelling test (HOST) is the test used to identify sperm membrane for structure integrity by examining how the sperm tails react to special sugar and salt. Only healthy sperm can react in that circumstance.</p>
<p>9. Pene trak<br />Pene trak is the test for 90 minutes to check the movement of sperm through a normal and friendly mucus in the test tube.</p>
<p>10. Peroxidase staining<br />It is a test to check for infection by differentiating white blood cell from the immature sperm.</p>

The result can be determined after<br />a) Male partner sperm with female partner cervical mucus<br />b) Male partner sperm with healthy mucus<br />c) Known healthy sperm with female partner mucus<br />d) Known healthy sperm with known healthy muscle</p>
<p>12. Sperm penetration assay (hamster test)<br />Sperm penetration test only is needed if the normal semen test can not determine the sperm penetration ability then hamster eggs with the ouster membrane has been stripped off are used in place of female eggs because of it&#8217;s structural similarity to human eggs. After the sperm and hamster eggs have incubated for three hours, the eggs are checked for sperm penetration. Any percentage over 10 % is considered normal and potential for fertilization.

<p>15. Scrotal sonography<br />Scotal sonography is used to evaluate the testicle disorder and surrounding organs including prostate gland, epididymis, an absent or undescended testicle and any testicle abnormality.</p>
<p>16. Testicle biopsy<br />A small sample is taken and tested for the ability of sperm producing cellsl in normal cells production. This test is necessary if the infertility male is found to have no sperm in semen, normal sex levels of hormone and abnormal sperm with unknown cause. The risk of the test may cause testicle damage.</p>
<p>17. Vasography<br />Vasography is a Radiographic study of the vas deferens. It helps to determine if the vas deferens is blocked or not and the reason of such blockage. In this study, if there is large amount of sperm containing fluid presented when the vas deferens is open, it indicates there is a block appeared in the vesicle end of the vas deferens.

Couples who need help getting pregnant should eat foods high in antioxidants like fruits and vegetables.</p>
<p>Couples trying to conceive must make sure their bodies are working as efficiently as possible by watching their weight and getting proper exercise. Men and women should know the ideal weight for their bodies and maintain that weight.
