Ayurveda is an everyday life science that cures a number of maladies based on the use of herbs, yoga, oil massages and a number of lifestyle tweaks. Ayurveda uses everyday tweaks in order to reach the root cause of the ailment and cure it. Therefore, it makes use of a lot of everyday items that can make changes in the doshas that create an imbalance. Ginger is one such ingredient that has a number of health benefits as per Ayurveda. It is a root spice or flowering plant with an orange brown hue. Read on to know more.

Nothing in the world can be more precious and valuable than holding and cuddling your baby for the first time. For most, pregnancy and parenthood gives a new dimension to their lives. It completes their family. People wait with bated breath for the beautiful phase to unfold. However, of late, infertility has been on the rise. As per a survey, 1 in every 1000, suffers from infertility issues. Infertility in males, as well as females, can be triggered by factors such as stress (personal or professional), unhealthy and sedentary lifestyle, unhealthy food habits, obesity, medical complications.

Medical assistance and treatments are available, but some of the treatments are way too expensive or have harmful and undesirable side effects. In this regard, homeopathy comes as a much-needed blessing. It is natural and has negligible or no side effects. Furthermore, most of the homeopathic medications are affordable, leaving you with only a small pinch in the pocket.

The first step in homeopathic treatment is identifying the root cause of infertility. In males, infertility can be due to

1. Erectile dysfunction.
2. Low semen count.
3. Sexually transmitted infections like gonorrhea and chlamydia.
4. Small testes or testicular injury.
5. Abnormal or premature ejaculation.
6. Obstruction in Vas deferens (Ejaculatory duct).
7. Varicocele, Prostatitis.

Female infertility may be due to

1. Thyroid problems.
2. PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome), Endometriosis.
3. Hormonal imbalance and irregular periods.
4. Uterine fibroid.
5. STD's like gonorrhea and chlamydia.
6. Blocked fallopian tube.
7. Uterine (cervix) abnormality.

Certain lifestyle habits and environmental factors also contribute towards male and female infertility.

Homeopathy to treat male infertility:

Some of the homeopathic medicines work wonders to improve male infertility.

1. Caladium Seguinum: Erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation can be effectively treated with Caladium Seguinum (American Arum). In some men, erectile dysfunction results in pruritus (severe itching) in the genital organs. Caladium is the best bet to deal with pruritus.
2. Agnus Castus (Chaste Tree): Agnus Castus is used to treat both male and female infertility. Men with erectile dysfunction, low libido, and low sperm count benefit immensely from this medicine. This medicine is a blessing for women with menstrual problems (irregular periods, heavy or scanty periods).
3. Lycopodium Clavatum (Wolf's Foot): Men with serious erectile dysfunction (due to stress, anxiety) benefit from this medicine.
4. Calcarea Carbonica: This medicine is helpful for men with a high libido but premature ejaculation.
5. Conium: Conium is used to treat low libido and weak erections in men.

Homeopathy to treat female infertility:

1. Pulsatilla: This homeopathic medicine comes as a relief for females who have infertility due to PCOD and irregular periods.
2. Sepia: Infertility resulting from menstrual problems (scanty and short periods) can be successfully treated with Sepia. It is also helpful in case of women with hypoactive sexual desire.
3. Natrum Carb: This homeopathic medicine is used to treat women who are unable to retain the sperm.
4. Aletris Farinosa: This medicine is used to treat infertility triggered by heavy periods.

Though effective, these medicines should not be used without medical prescription and recommendation. Self-medication will do more harm than good.

Aortic valve stenosis is a heart condition in which the valve to the biggest artery- the one which provides oxygen-rich blood to our body, called aorta, is narrowed. This prevents the valve from opening fully, obstructing the blood flow from your heart into your body.

When the aortic valve doesn’t open, your heart needs to work harder to pump blood to your body making the heart muscle weak. If left undiagnosed aortic stenosis is fatal.

Symptoms

These symptoms should spur you on to seek medical care right away:

1. Chest pain or tightness

2. Feeling faint with exertion

3. Shortness of breath

4. Fatigue after increased activity

5. Heart palpitations — rapid, fluttering heartbeat

6. Heart murmur

The disorder doesn’t produce symptoms right away and is usually diagnosed during routine physical exams when your doctor listens to your heart with a stethoscope. He usually hears a heart murmur resulting from turbulent blood flow through the narrowed aortic valve.

Diagnostic Tests

There are other ways to diagnose aortic valve stenosis and gauge the severity of the problem, like:

1. Echocardiogram – This produces an image of your heart using sound. It is the primary test to diagnose a heart valve problem. Sound waves are directed at your heart here and these bounce off your heart and are processed electronically to provide images of your heart. This test helps your doctor check diagnose aortic valve stenosis and its severity plus chalk out a treatment plan.

2. Electrocardiogram (ECG) –  In this test, patches with electrodes are attached to your chest to measure electrical impulses given out by your heart. These are then recorded as waves on a monitor and printed on paper. Though this can’t diagnose aortic stenosis directly, it can tell you that the left ventricle in your heart is thickened which normally happens due to aortic stenosis.

3. Chest X-ray – This allows the doctor to see the shape and size of your heart directly. If the left ventricle is thickened, it points to aortic stenosis. It also helps doctor check the lungs. Aortic stenosis leads to fluid and blood in the lungs, causing congestion.

4. Exercise Tests – Exercise is used to increase your heart rate and make your heart work harder. This test is done to see how your heart reacts to exertion. Exercise test may be contraindicated in severe AS. MRI and X ray not much helpful to diagnose AS. 

5. Computerised Tomography (CT) Scan –  This means a series of X-rays to create images of your heart and observes the heart valves. CT is helpful in planning for nonsurgical valve replacement. Cardiac Catheterisation is usually needed prior to surgery.

6. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) –  This uses powerful magnets and radio waves to create images of your heart and valves.

Once aortic valve stenosis is confirmed, you may have to go in for monitoring or heart valve surgery according to your doctor’s advice.

You must have heard about the indispensible use of the effective tea tree oil in so many Ayurvedic preparations. The oil is effective for many reasons, and the six common uses are as follows.

1. Treating scars and wounds: Tea tree oil is effective in extremely small concentrations, and can cause miraculous effects. That is why only a small portion is enough to get promising results. When two drops of tea tree oil are combined with 15 drops of Jojoba oil, and this mixture is applied to the wounds, injuries and scars, they heal quickly and scars disappear faster.
2. Treating breathing and respiratory problems: A lot of medical conditions, which may be caused by a bacteria or virus, can result in respiratory problems as a direct effect or side effect. In all such cases like cough and cold, flu, asthma, bronchitis, pharyngitis, tuberculosis etc., tea tree oil is highly effective and hence used in Ayurvedic medicines to loosen the mucous inside and expel it out. A direct massage on the chest by adding it with the other oils, or adding a few drops to warm water for inhaling vapour can help.
3. Mind freshener and nerve treatment: Tea tree oil has found great usage in mind freshening and nervous disease treatments. That’s because of the soothing effect of the oil in boosting the mind and body. In fact, it is also used in fighting fatigue, tiredness, phobias, fear, stress etc. Therefore, a body massage with coconut oil and about five drops of tea tree oil added to it helps very much.
4. Clearing lice and dandruff: These two are the major problems of hair and scalp, and both have a common remedy, which is the tea tree oil. The oil has microbial and fungicidal properties, which prove it to be a useful ingredient in the making of concoction and Ayurvedic medicines for dandruff and lice problems. The oil can directly be blended with hair oil or shampoo for great effects.
5. Skin infections due to bacteria and fungus: Skin problems aggravated by fungus infection, bacteria etc. can be alleviated with application of tea tree oil. The antifungal properties of the oil helps fight worse conditions like athlete’s foot, jock itch etc. Equal proportions of tea tree oil and any other oil like coconut or almond oil can be applied on to the affected parts twice daily to clear off fungus and heal the skin.
6. Immunity and resistance booster: Tea tree oil can be used for massages and rubs by mixing just two drops to any other base oil like coconut oil, for treating and preventing several skin and body conditions. These include bed sores, fungal infections, nappy and diaper rashes, cuts and wounds, insect bites, rashes and a lot more.

Throat pain mainly occurs due to two conditions 'sore throat' or 'strep throat'. Often the terms 'sore throat' and 'strep throat' are used interchangeably, but they don't indicate the same thing. While a sore throat is a condition mostly followed by common cold, runny nose or congestion; strep throat is a bacteria induced infection. The bacterium called Streptococcus is responsible for strep throat.

The most common reason behind a sore throat is a viral infection like flu or cold. So, if you've a sore throat that is caused by virus, there is no reason to worry as it can be treated easily. But if you are suffering from strep throat or streptococcal infection, then antibiotic drugs for additional treatment will be required to avoid complications.

Signs and symptoms of a strep throat (which indicates that your throat pain is serious and needs attention) include:

1. Pain while swallowing food
2. Sore throat which usually persists for more than 48 hours
3. Small red spots at the roof top of your mouth
4. Swollen and red tonsils at times with streaks of pus or white patches
5. Fever
6. Swollen, benign lymph nodes in your neck
7. Headache
8. Rash
9. Body aches
10. Vomiting or feeling of nausea, especially amongst younger children

When these signs and symptoms become noticeable, you need to promptly visit your doctor for test and treatment. And, if the reports indicate strep throat, then your doctor will prescribe you some oral antibiotics to reduce the complications and severity of symptoms so that it doesn't spread to others. You are advised to follow your prescription properly and stay indoors for at least a day after starting your medication.
 

The sciatic nerve is one of the largest nerves in the body. It goes from the lower back all the way down to the base of the leg. When there is a disorder associated with the sciatic nerve, it is known as Sciatica. 

Sciatica, however, does not necessarily need a surgery or a very elaborate procedure to fix the problem. Most commonly, it is treated simply by practicing a number of simple exercises. Here are some of the most common exercises prescribed to treat Sciatica:

1. Reclining Pigeon Pose: There are three main forms of the pigeon pose. These are sitting, reclining and then forwarding. It is recommended that if you have very recently started your treatment for Sciatica, then certainly you should go for the reclining pose. In this pose, you are supposed to hold your left leg in the air at a right angle to your back. Then, hold your ankle against the knee. Finally, repeat this stretch with the right leg as well.
2. Knee to Opposite Shoulder: In this stretch, the starting position is on your back side. You have to have your legs out and feet upwards. From this position, try to bring your right leg towards your left shoulder. Hold this for 30 seconds and then release and relax. Repeat this activity three times and repeat the whole procedure with your other leg. Only take your leg as far as it goes.
3. Sitting Spinal Stretch: At the start of this exercise, sit on the ground with your legs going straight outwards and your feet flexed in the upward direction. Pull your left knee and put it on the outside of your right knee. Finally, place your right elbow on the left knee, so that your body turns to the left. Hold for 30 seconds and then relax. Repeat the procedure with the other knee.
4. Standing Hamstring Stretch: Put your foot on an elevated surface such that it is above the floor, but not above hip level. Flex your toes forward such that your feet and legs are nearly in a straight line. Bend as far towards the foot as possible. However, do not stretch so far that you feel pain. Finally, repeat this procedure on the other side after release.

The fallopian tubes are not mere passages for the egg to travel from the ovaries to the uterus. It is here that conception occurs and hence healthy fallopian tubes are essential for the fertilization of an egg. 

Damaged fallopian tubes are the most common cause of infertility. This damage can fall under three categories:

1. Blocked fallopian tubes
2. One blocked and one open fallopian tube
3. Tubal scarring

The third is usually an effect of pelvic infections or natural healing after a pelvic surgery. Sadly, in most cases, this condition is discovered only after infertility has been diagnosed. Other causes of fallopian tubal scarring include:

• STDs such as chlamydia trachomatis and neisseria gonorrhea
• Adhesions caused by ruptured ovarian cysts
• Appendicitis
• Peritonitis and
• A history of ectopic pregnancies

Fallopian tubal scarring has no recognizable symptoms. Chronic pelvic pain is the only known symptom of this damage and that too can be seen only in severe cases of tubal scarring. On diagnosing infertility, your doctor will perform one of these tests to determine the condition of your fallopian tubes.

1. Hysterosalpingogram: This is a type of X-ray. Your doctor will open the vagina with a speculum and inject a liquid into the uterus with the help of a catheter. If the liquid does not pass through the fallopian tubes, it is said to be blocked. This however does not say much about tubal scarring. 
2. Laparoscopy: A small incision is made below the belly button and a slim, flexible tube with a camera is passed through the incision. This gives your doctor a clear view of the condition of your fallopian tubes. A laparoscopy can also be used to rule out other causes of infertility such as endometriosis or blocked fallopian tubes. 

Treatment for infertility caused by tubal scarring is of two types. 

1. Surgery: This is suggested in cases where tubal scarring is minimal. Depending on the intensity and placement of scar tissue, your doctor may decide to perform one of many types of surgeries. She may choose to remove the scarred section of the fallopian tube, create a new opening (in case of blockages) or rebuild the damaged edges of the fallopian tubes.
2. In Vitro Fertilization(IVF): Women with badly scarred fallopian tubes usually have poor chances of conceiving naturally. Hence, IVF is the preferred treatment route. However, your doctor may still advise you to undergo surgery and remove the damaged tubes prior to IVF to prevent the tubes from filling with fluid.

In large number of cases of tubal scarring tubes would be open on tubal testing. However, it may not be working well or is functional. A lot of women with so called unexplained infertility may actually have tubal scarring or non functional tubes as the cause of Infertility. IVF is the best treatment option in such cases as it would bypass the work of the tubes completely.

Lower back pain is a very common issue and can take place due to numerous reasons. However, one of its main causes is a ligament strain or back muscle strain. Microscopic tear or excessive stretching of ligaments can take place due to lifting very heavy objects, doing enormously strenuous task or due to a sudden twisted movement. These conditions are most likely to be experienced by individuals ranging between the ages of 30 and 60. Other causes of lower back pain include back injury, arthritis of back bone joints, infections in the lower back area, and in very rare cases, tumours.

In case of acute back pain, these are a few important things that should be definitely kept in mind.

1. It is absolutely essential to take rest for a couple of days and avoid any sort of stressful activity. Although back pain is self-limiting, if you take proper care, it can be cured in a few days. However, if proper rest is not taken, the situation may become worse.
2. Using the black belt, also known as lumbo sacral corset, is a good idea. This can actually be of enormous help to individuals who have been suffering from lower back pain for a long period of time.
3. As already mentioned, one of the main causes of these kinds of mishaps are sudden jerky movements, twisted movements, heavy weight lifting etc. So, it is necessary to avoid such circumstances, or else, a more acute back pain situation may arise due to slipping of one of the discs from the spinal cord.
4. As much as you like long drives and bike rides, these are a strict no. Any prolonged sitting or standing activity needs to be avoided. It is important that the tear caused in the muscles due to what-so-ever reason heals properly and prolonged stay in a tensed muscle position would definitely not help the cause.
5. Although these back pains can be handled at home by following the discussed steps, using simple analgesics or muscle relaxants prescribed by the doctor can be a way to speed up the process of recovering the strained ligament.

Apart from these important steps, regular exercise to strengthen the core body muscles is a great way to avoid such ligament strains in the future. However, if you feel that even after following the precautionary measures, you problem doesn’t subside, consult an experienced doctor for his advice.

A breast examination is a way of detecting early changes that may find lumps of other growth in the breast. This is a manual form of examination that may be carried out by the doctor or even by the patient. This kind of examination helps in detecting the onset of breast cancer and helps in successful treatment of the same. It is an essential screening strategy that all women must go through. Let us cast a glance on the various details regarding this examination, and also how frequently it must be conducted.

1. Age: Women who have reached the age of 18 are said to have matured physically and sexually. They should perform this examination once they have reached the said age in order to detect any anomalies in the way the physical changes occur in the breast tissue.
2. Procedure: One should begin by looking at one's reflection in the mirror to find any rashes or dimpling in the breasts. The shape, size and colour of the breasts and nipples must also be studied so as to check for any anomalies. Inverted nipples, redness and soreness must also be reported to the doctor. Once you are done checking the visuals, you can raise your arms and look for any changes. Then, you will need to lie down and feel your breasts by using a circular motion. The finger pads must be used in order to check for any lumps. One must start from the centre and move the breasts sideways. Any wet and slippery feeling must be reported to the doctor immediately.
3. Pressure: During the breast examination, you must use light pressure for the skin and tissue that lie beneath the breasts, while medium to moderate pressure should be used for the middle portion of the breasts. One must use a firm hand to check the tissue that lies at the back of the breasts, near the rib cage.
4. Frequency: One must get into the habit of conducting a breast examination at least once a fortnight or once a month, without fail. You can also go to the gynaecologist for an examination in case you are not confident of conducting it on your own with proper movements and accuracy. You may also journalise your breast examination findings.
5. Menstrual Cycles: When you are going through your menstrual cycle or period, it is important to remember that your breasts can become tender just before or after the start of the cycle. So, do not panic if you think you have found a lump or any other growth at this time. It is best to check again after a week and then visit the doctor about checking the same.

The debate about how sex affects sportspersons has been there for a very long time, but it is its reverse which is somehow more applicable. Research has shown that regularly engaging in sports or other physical activities such as exercising can have some really positive effects on your sex life. This has got to do mostly with improved metabolic activity in the cells from the increased motion and exercise. 

Research suggests that engaging in exercise, sports and other physical activities result in an increase in flexibility and agility among people, thus aiding sexual prowess and performance. Also, it boosts levels of self-confidence, thus allowing you to believe that you are sexually desirable, (due to increased levels of fitness and toned musculature) which in turn also positively affects sexual capability- in providing higher levels of satisfaction to your partners. Apart from these, there are several other factors of sexuality that are also improved due to engaging in sports or exercise, like:

• Decreased risks of Erectile Dysfunction (ED): One of the most essential benefits of engaging in sports and exercise is that it lowers the risk of erectile dysfunction in men, due to an increased level of blood flow into your penis as a result of widening of the arteries. In this regard, research also suggests that you don't necessarily need to be overly fit or sporting to reduce chances of ED - even a brisk half hour walk works wonders.
• Improved quality of semen: Research has found that if you exercise or are engaged in some rigorous sporting activity for at least 15 hours per week, you will have higher sperm counts than your inactive counterparts.
• Increased libido: High levels of exercise pumps up testosterone levels in men and estrogen levels in women, which leads to better muscle growth and an increased sex drive in both sex. 
• Increased chances of achieving orgasm in women: If you work out frequently, then the process of arousal works quicker for you and chances of orgasm is faster and with higher intensity, it gets increased exponentially. 
• Heightened sensitivity: In women, the clitoris contains over 8000 nerve endings, which makes it very sensitive to stimulation, and increases arousal exponentially. Increased physical activity heightens the effect of this stimulus and makes sexual stimulation much more pleasurable.

राह चलते कोई महिला अपने गुप्तांगो की तरफ अगर हाथ फिराए तो इस सिचुएशन पर उसे खुद और देखने वालों दोनों को ही ऑकवर्ड फील होने लगता है। और अगर ऐसा ना भी महसूस हो तो भी जरा सोचिए कि आप कहीं किसी काम में लगे हैं मॉर्केट, मीटिंग, ऑफिस, परिवार के साथ, डेट पर कहीं भी और बीच-बीच में आपके गुप्तांगो में भयानक इचिंग हो रही है। आप कहीं भी चैंन से बैठ नही पाते। इचिंग की वजह से जलन और झुंझलाहट दोनों अपनी हद्द पर कर चुके होते हैं। और समय के साथ कोई उपचार न करने पर ये तकलीफ बढ़ती ही जाएगी। इसी तकलीफ को हम वजाइनल इंफेक्शन यानि योनि संक्रमण के नाम से जानते हैं। और यह संक्रमण कभी भी किसी को भी हो सकता है। 

योनि संक्रमण कोई गंभीर बीमारी नहीं है लेकिन यह महिलाओं को काफी परेशान अवश्य करता है। इस्ट औऱ फंगस हमारे वेजिना में स्वाभाविक रूप से मौजूद होता हैं, लेकिन जब इनकी असामान्य रूप से संख्या में वृद्धि होने लगती है तो यह वेजिना में संक्रमण के कारण बनते हैंइस फंगस का नाम कैन्डिडा अल्बाईकंस होता है जो योनि में संक्रमण उत्पन्न कर सकता है। एक स्वस्थ योनि में बैक्टीरिया ज़्यादा होते हैं और खमीर की कोशिकाएं कम और यह बैक्टीरिया जिसे लैक्टोबैसिलस एसिडोफिलस कहते हैं खमीर की मात्रा को कम करता है। कभी कभी एंटीबायोटिक्स लेने से भी इन जीवाणुओं में वृद्धि होती है और संक्रमण की प्रक्रिया शुरू हो जाती है। अन्य कारण जिनसे ये संक्रमण फैलता है वे हैं गर्भावस्था के दौरान एस्ट्रोजन का स्तर, हॉर्मोन बदलने की पद्दति, डायबिटीज या एड्स।

योनि संक्रमण के लक्षण 

• योनि में खुजली या सूजन
• पेशाब या सेक्स केरने के दौरान दर्द और जलन होना 

एक सर्वे के मुताबिक लगभग 90% महिलाएं योनि संक्रमण की समस्या से जूझती हैं। जिसके लिए हमारी लाइफस्टाइल, खाना-पान, पहनावा और लापरवाही जिम्मेदार हैं। ऐसा नहीं की ये तकलीफ जानलेवा है या पर जिसे हो जाए उसका पूरा समय हर्रास्मेंट वाली फीलिंग से गुजरना पड़ता है। अब समस्या है तो जरूरी है इससे राहत पाने के या इससे बचने के नुस्खे अपनाए जाए तो चलिए आज हम जानते हैं योनि संक्रमण से बचने के कुछ अचूक नुस्खे। 

1. रेगुलर पेड चेंज करें
सैनिटरी नैपकिन या टैम्पोन को ज्यादा देर तक लगाए रखने से आपकी वेजिना में नमी होने लगती हैं। जिसके कारण आपको संक्रमण की समस्या हो सकती हैं। इसलिए पीरियड्स के दौरान हर 4-5 घण्टे के भीतर ही सैनिटरी नैपकिन या टैम्पोन को बदलती रहें।

2. सुगंधित वजाइनल प्रोडक्ट्स यूज़ करने से बचें
सुगंधित सैनिटरी नैपकिन और टैम्पोन का इस्तेमाल करना तुरन्त बंद कर दें। क्योकि इनकी खुशबू से वजाइना में जीवाणुओं का एक असंतुलन बन सकता है और इसी से वेजिना में संक्रमण का खतरा बनने लगता है। और इसी कारण डॉक्टर भी खुशबूदार सैनिटरी नैपकिन या टैम्पोन का यूज करने से रोकते हैं।

3. रोजना खाएं दही
दही एक ऐसा आहार है जो स्वस्थ बैक्टीरिया से भरा हुआ होता है और इस कारण यह आपके वजाइना को संक्रमण से भी सुरक्षित रखता है। अच्छे बैक्टीरिया वेजिना मे होने वाले संक्रमण को रोकने में मदद करते है तो अच्छा होगा की आप प्रतिदिन एक कप दही का जरुर खाएं इससे स्वास्थ भी अच्छा बना रहेगा और योनि में भी किसी भी तरह की समस्या नही होगी।

4. गर्म पानी से ना नहाएं
वजाइना में इन्फेक्शन की समस्या ज्यादा नम और गर्म स्थिति में भी होती हैं। अगर आपकी वेजिना के क्षेत्र में गर्मी बनी रहेगी तो आपको संक्रमण की समस्या हो सकती है। अगर आप चाहती है कि आपको इस तरह की समस्या ना हो तो ठंडे पानी से ही स्नान करें, तथा अगर आप गर्म पानी का इस्तेमाल करती भी है तो उसके बाद हमेशा ढीले कपड़े ही पहने।

5. तनाव मुक्त रहें
किसी भी बीमारी या संक्रमण के बढने की सबसे अहम वजह है तनाव में रहना। इसलिए तनाव से बचने की कोशिश करें।शरीर को पूरा आराम नहीं मिलता है, तो शरीर की प्रतिरक्षा प्रणाली कमजोर हो जाती है, जिसके कारण आपका स्वास्थ खराब हो जाता हैं। इसलिए अपने शरीर को आराम दें रोजाना कम से कम 7-8 घंटे की नींद जरूर लें।

6. जरूरत से ज्यादा न करें वजाइना की सफाई
वैसे तो संक्रमण को रोकने के लिए वजाइना को क्लीन और हेल्दी रखना बहुत जरुरी होता है। पर वजाइना को रफ़ साबुन से न साफ करें। क्योकि वजाइना काफी सेंसिटिव होता है इसलिए अपने वजाइना ले सॉफ्टनेस क्व अनुसार ही सॉफ्ट साबुन या इसके लिए स्पेसिफिक एंटी बैक्टीरिया लिक्विड वाश का इस्तेमाल करें। 

7. एंटीबायोटिक दवाओं से परहेज करें
अक्सर लोग बैक्टीरिया को खत्म करन के लिए एंटीबायोटिक्स का यूज़ करते हैं। पर एंटीबायोटिक्स का ज्यादा इस्तेमाल शरीर में मौजूद अच्छे बैक्टीरिया खत्म को खत्म कर देता हैं। इसलिए जितना हो सके उतना एंटीबायोटिक दवाओं के सेवन से कम इस्तेमाल करें। हमेशा डॉक्टर की सलाह लेकर ही यूज़ करें।

8. कॉटन पैंटी ही पहनें 
सूती पैंटी की यह खासियत होती हैं कि यह वजाइना में होने वाली नमी को ऑब्जर्व कर लेता है इतना ही नहीं इससे वजाइनल एरिया तक पर्याप्त मात्रा में हवा भी पहुंचती हैं। जबकि लाइक्रा या नायलॉन की अंडरवियर को पहनने से पसीना आता है और किण्व का प्रजनन होने लगता है जिससे वजाइना में संक्रमण होने की संभावना ज्यादा होती है। इसलिए हमेशा सूती पैंटी ही पहनें। और हो सके तो अपने सभी कपड़े कॉटन ही रखें इससे आप तो कंफेर्टबले रहेंगे ही साथ ही वजाइनल इंफेक्शन से भी बचे रहेंगे।

9. हेल्दी डाइट लें

• जब हमारे शरीर में जरूरी पोषक तत्वों की कमी होती है तो हमारा शरीर कीटाणुओं और एंटीबॉडी से हमारी रक्षा करने में सक्षम नहीं हो पाता हैं। इसलिए डाइट में पोषक तत्वों को शामिल करें। 
• इंस्टेंट आराम पाने के लिए कपूर और नारियल तेल लगाए आराम मिलेगा।
• पर ध्यान रहे की अगर इन नुस्खों को अपनाने के बाद भी आराम नहीं मिले तो डॉक्टर से सम्पर्क करें।

बहुत कम लोगों को अपने शरीर में होने वाले परिवर्तनों और उनकी वजहों की जानकारी होती है। उम्र के साथ शरीर में आने वाले चेंजेस की अगर हमें सही जानकारी हो, तो हम अपने शरीर की जरूरतों को सही ढंग से पूरा कर सकते हैं। और शरीर से जो एक्सपेक्ट करते हैं उसे पा सकते हैं। उदाहरण के लिए प्रेग्नेंट होने के लिए कब ट्राय करें इसकी जानकारी होना। हालांकि ऐसे मुद्दों की लंबी लिस्ट है पर आज हम जानेंगे ऐसे शरीरिक स्थिति के बारे में जो किसी भी महिला के जीवन में अहम रोल अदा करता है। जिसे हम ओवुलेशन यानी अंडोत्सर्ग के नाम से जाना जाता है। हममें से बहुत से लोगों को लगता है कि गर्भधारण कर लेना एक मामूली प्रक्रिया है जो कभी भी शारीरिक संबन्ध स्थापित करने से हो जाता है पर वास्तविकता इससे काफी अलग है। गर्भ ठहरना शरीर की लंबी क्रिया प्रतिक्रिया का परिणाम है। और इसकी शुरुआत होती शरीरिक संबन्ध के बाद ओवुलेशन की स्थिति तक। तो आइये हम जानते हैं की ओवुलेशन क्या है इसे पहचाने कैसे और इसके फायदे क्या हैं। 

ओवुलेशन 
ओवुलेशन महीने का वो समय होता है (12 से 24 घंटे) जब अंडे वीर्य या स्पर्म के साथ मिलने को तैयार होता है।इसमें अंडे अन्डकोशों से ऋतुचक्र के समय निकलते हैं। इस ऋतुचक्र को समझने से ही आप समझ पाएंगे की ओवुलेशन कब होगा। हर महीने एक महिला के अंडकोष से 15 से 20 अंडे निकलते हैं। ये अंडे फैलोपियन ट्यूब से होते हुए गर्भाशय तक पहुँचते हैं।

अपने ग्रीवा यानी सर्विक्स को समझें
अपने ओवुलेशन के बारे में जानने का ये भी एक बेहतरीन तरिका है। चक्र के शुरू में ग्रीवा यानी (योनी और गर्भाशय के बीच का रास्ता) थोड़ी सख्त, नीची और बंद होती है। लेकिन ओवुलेशन की शुरुवात होते ही यह खुल जाती है और मुलायम हो जाती है ताकि वो स्पर्म को अपने अन्दर समेत सके। अगर आप अपने ग्रीवा की जांच रोज करें तो आप व् की शुरुवात को समझ सकती हैं। अपने पीरियड के खत्म होने के बाद वो जगह फॉर से सख्त हो जाती है।
लेकिन जिन महिलाओं में रेगुलर पीरियड नही होता है उनमें ओवुलेशन का समय अलग होता है। कभी-कभी एक के बाद एक ओवरी में अण्डे मेच्योर होते हैं और हार्मोन में वृद्धि के साथ परिपक्व होकर अण्डे बाहर आते हैं। परिवक्व अण्डे फैलोपियन ट्यूब से होते हुए यूटरस की तरफ आते हैं और ट्यूब में रुककर निषेचित होने के लिए शुक्राणु की प्रतीक्षा करते हैं।
ओवुलेशन का सही पता चल जाये तो इसके कई फायदे हैं आपको गर्भ धारण करने में आसानी होती है। अगर ओवुलेशन प्रक्रिया के दौरान सेक्स न किया जायें तो बड़ी आसानी से बर्थ कंट्रोल किया जा सकता है। आइए हम आपको बताते हैं कि कैसे आप आवुलेशन का पता आसानी से लगा सकती हैं। 

ओवुलेशन के लक्षण 

• जिन महिलाओं का पीरियड रेगुलर होता है वो बड़ी आसानी से ओवुलेशन की प्रक्रिया को समझ सकती हैं। क्योंकि उनमें ओवुलेशन का दिन निश्चित होता है। 
• अगर आपका मासिक चक्र पूरे 28 दिन में होता है तो 12वें और 16वें दिन के लक्षणों को पहचाने। इसी दिन ओवुलेशन प्रक्रिया होने की संभावना ज्यादा होती है। 
• जिन महिलाओं में रेगुलर पीरियड नही होता है उनमें यह क्रिया अनिश्चित होती है। मासिक चक्र डिस्टर्ब होने के साथ ही ओवुलेशन का समय बदल जाता है। 
• ओवुलेशन का पता लगाने के लिए 12वें और 16वें दिनों के बीच के संकेतों को समझें। आपका शरीर कुछ संकेत दे तो इसका मतलब आप फर्टाइल फेज में हैं। 

सर्विकल म्यूकस 
ओवुलेशन प्रक्रिया के दौरान सर्विकल म्यूकस में परिवर्तन हाने लगता है। योनि स्राव की मात्रा में गाढ़ापन और स्पस्ट तौर पर अंतर दिखता है। योनि स्राव अन्य दिनों में चिपचिपा होता है लेकिन ओवुलेशन के समय यह ज्यादा चिकनाईयुक्त और छूने पर तनाव प्रतीत होता है। 

तापमान
बाकि दिनों के मुकाबले शरीर का तापमान बढ़ जाता है। सुबह उठकर अपने शरीर का तापमान जांचिए अगर यह ज्यादा है तो ओवुलेशन की प्रक्रिया शुरू होने के संकेत हैं। इसके लिए सामान्य दिनों में भी थर्मामीटर के जरिए शरीर का तापमान लीजिए। ऐसे में अगर आपके शरीर का तापमान सामान्य दिनों की तुलना में ज्यादा हो तो ओवुलेशन का पता लगा सकते हैं। 

कामुक इच्छा
ओवुलेशन प्रक्रिया के दौरान सेक्स की इच्छा बढ़ जाती है। इस दौरान फर्टाइल फेज होता है जिसके कारण यौन संबंध बनाने की प्रबल इच्छा होती है।
