Dermatology is a branch which has been prone to medical quackery (jholachap giri)ever since its inception as a branch. Every so-called doctor (jholachhap), used to do dermatological treatment, giving steroids to virtually every disease, isotretinoin in pregnant, calling them dermatologist without any degree, playing with the health of the people and causing a huge huge hazard to everyone.Now, this quackery has reached a new high what I called as 'high-level white-collar quackery' from normal dermatological practice, it has been progressed to the Aesthetic procedure, surgical intervention, lasers. I am sharing here someday to day experience we face as a dermatologist. 

Scenario 1: Hair transplant now a well-known procedure, being a safer less invasive surgery itis at high tide right now. But due to its safety and non-invasive nature now this jholachhap Non-medicos are doing hair transplant routinely and boasting themselves as hair transplant surgeons. People, please understand its a surgery and it cant be done without a proper understanding of the human body and science. Some 'well-known hair transplant centres' are running their business without any doctors very smoothly, compromising sterility, risking lives. It is so easy for them to risk your life as our country never had any policy for healthcare.

Scenario 2: A well-known centre has been doing laser for 'god only know the indication' in a 1st-trimester pregnant lady. We doctors know that laser can harm developing baby in the womb. But who can stop them when they are only busy in money making without thinking twice.Many a time this centres calls a doctor after causing severe side effects like laser burn, flare of the disease due to wrong indications, but again who can stop them from playing human life.

Scenario 3: Anti-aging business is now of billions of dollars worldwide and got easier with many advancements in medical sciences like fillers, botox, machines, lasers. Easier means again more quackery but big money this time, how can they stop themselves indulging in this business again. Many so-called wellness centres doing all these procedures with any medical knowledge, without any degree, without any supervision. Result being risking our health and life.

I want to aware people that please be wise don't fall prey to any kind of advertisement, ask them there medical degree and medical licenses before going for any treatment or procedures. Its only money for them but it's your life which is at the stack. I also request our government and concerned authority who is always ready to blame doctors for all the thing, please make some strict protocols and restrict such kind of practice.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects a woman’s hormone levels. It is believed that high levels of male hormones prevent the ovaries from producing hormones and making eggs normally. Moreover Genes, inflammation and insulin resistance have all been linked to excess androgen production.

The urinary system in both men and women are susceptible to infections and many other internal disorders. Although many of the disorders may be caused due to underlying diseases or hereditary causes, many others may be caused due to bad life style habits as well as personal hygiene issues. Personal hygiene issues will not only lead to infections, but if left unchanged, may cause more serious problems such as tumors overtime. However, with the help of some basic tips and following some daily routine, you can ensure good urological health overtime. Some of these are mentioned below:

1. Drink plenty of water daily: This is applicable to both men and women and it is important, especially in a country like India where hot and humid conditions prevail for most of the time. A common figure quoted most of the time is 2 to 3 liters of water daily although this is quite arbitrary and may change from person to person and climate to climate. What is important is that you should remain hydrated and calculate an ideal amount of water consumption. This is necessary to stop stone formation in the gallbladder, kidney, ureter and other areas of the genitourinary system.
2. Cleaning tips for men: It is important to ensure proper hygiene for good penile health. Uncircumcised males should retract their foreskin while taking a bath and clean out the smegma or white accumulations from around the glans. This will reduce the chances of inflammations and urinary tract infections from occurring. Circumcised males should thoroughly wash the penis as well to keep it clean.
3. Regular ejaculation: Men are advised to ejaculate regularly either through masturbation or through sexual stimulation as it is beneficial in many ways. Ejaculation helps clear the tracts, exercises the prostate and also keeps the pattern of proper blood flow to the penis active. It maintains urological health as well as you sexual health.
4. Don’t hold your urine for too long: Although this is especially applicable for women, it can be bad for men too. Holding the urine within your body for too long may result in an infection and may also make your bladder muscles weaker resulting in urinary incontinence later in life. Women, especially should be careful as they have a shorter urethra leading from the bladder and thus are more prone to getting urinary tract infections in this manner.
5. Avoid harsh soaps and use milder ones to regularly cleanse the groin area: The groin is one of the moistest areas, as it remains covered up most of the time. This makes it an ideal breeding ground for bacteria. It is important that you clean this area every day thoroughly with mild soap. Also, after urination, women should wipe front to back i.e. from the opening of the vagina towards the anus while wiping down after urinating or cleaning. This is to ensure that fecal bacteria don’t get into the vagina as it can cause a host of infections.
6. Tips for sexual intercourse: It is important for both men and women to urinate, wash and clean after sexual intercourse as this can help clean the bacteria that may have come from one partner’s genitals into the other. Women should especially follow this advice as it can help keep many infections at bay.
7. Changes in certain foods: Reduce caffeine intake through tea or coffee as it can irritate your bladder. It can also act as a diuretic which makes you urinate frequently. This will result in your bladder becoming weaker. Also reduce salt intake as it can increase blood pressure and end up damaging the kidney to the point of permanent kidney damage or kidney failure.

What is Osteoporosis?
Osteoporosis is a medical condition wherein the bone becomes fragile and breaks easily even with a minor fall. The bones of spine, wrists and hips get affected the most. These fractured bones lead to severe pain and can force a person to become immobile. A spine fracture can even lead to a loss of height.

What is parathyroid hormone?
Parathyroid is a naturally occurring hormone that regulates the amount of calcium present in the body. They mitigate the risk of bone breakage in the body for a patient suffering with osteoporosis. These hormones are injected into the body on a daily basis to maintain the normal flow of calcium in the body.

How does the treatment work?
Treatments are available in the form of drugs and injections. A doctor can prescribe drugs, if the patient is at an increased rate of bone breakage. The parathyroid hormone helps to protect the bone from breaking, but have no role when the bone actually breaks. The body has a natural process of breaking a bone and rebuilding it by itself. Osteoporosis sets in motion when this process of bone formation is disturbed.

When does a doctor prescribe hormonal treatment?
If a patient has undergone a number of vertebral compression fractures and the condition has not improved, a doctor might suggest to undergo parathyroid hormone treatment. The treatment requires nursing support due to a patient’s delicate bone condition. A maximum dosage of 20 micro grams of parathyroid can be injected for a time duration not exceeding 2 years.

Things to know about the treatment:

1. Be informed: It is good to be well informed about the course of the treatment, treatment duration, plausible problems etc. This will help a patient to be on top of the decision making process. The helpline of the 'National Osteoporosis Society' can be reached to understand the preparation required for a patient to undergo the treatment.
2. Take the right dosage at the right time: Parathyroid injections should be injected on a daily basis for a maximum time period of 2 years. These injections are taken daily at the same time. It should be ensured that none of the injections are skipped without the prior approval of a doctor. The injection, which lasts for 28 days, needs to be stored in a refrigerator. In case a patient is travelling, special bags are available that has space for storing gel packs.
3. Side effects: Most patients do not report any side effects, but they do exist. Possible side effects include dizziness, arthralgia, depression and headache. These symptoms often suggest that your body is reacting to the parathyroid hormone treatment. A doctor may or may not prescribe any further drugs to address these symptoms.
