Learn about Ovarian Failure with Specialists at Rupal hospital
Premature ovarian failure, also known as primary ovarian insufficiency refers to a loss of normal function of the ovaries before the age of 40. The main function of the ovaries is to stores and release eggs. If the ovaries fail, they don't produce normal amounts of the hormone estrogen or release eggs regularly. Woman will be left with no or few eggs. Depending on the cause, premature ovarian failure may develop as early as in the teen years, or the problem may have been present from birth. Infertility is the output of this problem.

Premature ovarian failure is sometimes referred to as premature menopause, but two conditions aren't exactly the same. Women with premature ovarian failure may have irregular or occasional periods, infertility problems, and menopause-like symptoms. It is difficult, though not impossible, for women who have premature ovarian failure to become pregnant. Women with premature menopause stop having periods and can't become pregnant. Restoring estrogen levels in women with premature ovarian failure helps prevent some complications, such as osteoporosis, but infertility is harder to treat.

Causes of Premature Ovarian Failure (POF)

Although the exact cause of premature ovarian failure is unknown, a genetic factor or a problem with the body's immune system may play a role in some women. In an immune system disorder, the body may attack its own tissues the ovaries. Premature ovarian failure may develop after a hysterectomy or other pelvic surgery or from radiation or chemotherapy treatment for cancer. In some of these cases, the condition may be temporary, with the ovaries starting to work again some years later. With POF, some women still have occasional periods. They may even get pregnant. In most cases of POF, the cause is unknown.

The symptoms of premature ovarian failure are similar to those of menopause and are typical of estrogen deficiency. They include:

1) Irregular or skipped periods (amenorrhea), which may be present for years or may develop after a pregnancy or after stopping birth control pills
2) Hot flashes
3) Night sweats
4) Vaginal dryness
5) Irritability or difficulty concentrating
6) Decreased sexual desire
7) Trouble sleeping

Making the Diagnosis of Premature Ovarian Failure (POF)

The first step in making the diagnosis is a blood test to check whether or not the ovary is producing estrogen and whether the pituitary gland is producing the hormones FSH and LH that stimulate the ovarian follicles. If the pituitary hormones are elevated and the ovary is not producing estrogen, then the diagnosis of POF is made. A transvaginal ultrasound may also be done to evaluate the ovaries. In POF patients, the ovaries are usually small and there are few follicles seen.

Treatment options available for Premature Ovarian Failure (POF)

Treatment for premature ovarian failure will help to manage the symptoms. There is currently no treatment that will make the ovaries start to work properly again. Doctor may prescribe hormone therapy or other medicines to help with hot flashes. Hormone therapy can also help prevent early bone loss in women who have premature ovarian failure. Some women with premature ovarian failure may choose to try to become pregnant using donor eggs and in vitro fertilization. Estrogen therapy and Calcium and vitamin D supplements help prevent osteoporosis. None of these treatments have been proven to be effective in restoring fertility. However, 8% of women with POF who have conceived were using Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). Even though there is no absolute treatment, HRT has been one aid in helping women achieve pregnancy. Egg donation is, undoubtedly, the most successful treatment option for women with POF. With their own eggs, POF patients have a very low pregnancy chance. POF patient with egg donor program has high chance of achieving pregnancy.

Factors that increase the risk of developing premature ovarian failure include age where the risk of ovarian failure rises sharply between age 35 and age 40. Another is family history. Having a family history of premature ovarian failure increases your risk of developing this disorder.

Complications of premature ovarian failure include:

Infertility. Inability to get pregnant may be the most troubling complication of premature ovarian failure, although in rare cases, pregnancy is possible. There's no treatment proved to restore fertility in women with this condition. Some women and their partners choose to pursue a pregnancy through in vitro fertilization using donor eggs. The procedure involves removing eggs from a donor and fertilizing them with your partner's sperm in a lab. The fertilized egg (embryo) is then placed in your uterus. During this process, you take medication that balances your hormones to support a pregnancy. Once the pregnancy is established, you stop taking the medication and the pregnancy proceeds naturally to the delivery.

Osteoporosis . The hormone estrogen helps maintain strong bones. Women with low levels of estrogen have an increased risk of developing weak and brittle bones (osteoporosis), which are more likely to break than healthy bones.

Depression or anxiety. The risk of infertility and other complications arising from low estrogen levels may cause some women to become depressed or anxious.

At this time, there is no way to prevent premature ovarian failure. But you can take steps to protect your overall health. Women with premature ovarian failure have a higher risk of bone thinning and fractures (osteoporosis), diabetes, and heart disease. A balanced and low-fat diet, regular exercise, and not smoking can help protect your bones and heart. Getting enough calcium and vitamin D may help slow bone loss. Talk to your doctor about other steps you can take.

Fertility preservation, whether through ovarian tissue cryopreservation, egg freezing or embryo freezing, is the latest ART technology. It helps women with the option of attaining motherhood at the later stage in the life. It also helps cancer patients to become pregnant after the treatment. Fertility preservation may become a major part of proactive POF treatment in the future.

Learning that you have premature ovarian failure may be emotionally difficult. But with proper treatment and self-care, you can expect to lead a healthy life.

Managing PCOS at Rupal Hospital for Women, Surat, Gujarat
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common hormonal disorder among women of reproductive age. It is characterized by abnormal amounts of the male hormone androgen which results in irregular periods, and cysts in the ovaries. Cysts are small sacs filled with fluid. PCOS is a complex, heterogeneous disorder of uncertain etiology, but there is strong evidence that it can to a large degree be classified as a genetic disease. PCOS produces symptoms in approximately 5% to 10% of women of reproductive age (12–45 years old). It is one of the leading causes of female sub fertility and the most frequent endocrine problem in women of reproductive age. Most women with PCOS grow many small cysts on their ovaries. That is why it is called polycystic ovary syndrome. The cysts are not harmful but lead to hormone imbalances. The cysts are under-developed sacs in which eggs develop. Often in PCOS, these sacs are unable to release an egg, meaning ovulation doesn't take place.

It can cause problems with your periods and make it difficult to get pregnant. PCOS also may cause unwanted changes in the way you look. If it isn't treated, over time it can lead to serious health problems, such as diabetes and heart disease.

What causes PCOS?

The cause of PCOS is unknown. But most experts think that several factors, including genetics, could play a role. Women with PCOS are more likely to have a mother or sister with PCOS. PCOS can be passed down from either your mother's or father's side. A main underlying problem with PCOS is a hormonal imbalance. In women with PCOS, the ovaries make more androgens than normal. Androgens are male hormones that females also make. High levels of these hormones affect the development and release of eggs during ovulation. Insulin may be linked to PCOS. Insulin is a hormone that controls the change of sugar, starches, and other food into energy for the body to use or store. Many women with PCOS have too much insulin in their bodies because they have problems using it. Excess insulin appears to increase production of androgen. High androgen levels can lead to Acne, Excessive hair growth, Weight gain or Problems with ovulation.

Polycystic ovary syndrome signs and symptoms often begin soon after a woman first begins having periods (menarche). In some cases, PCOS develops later on during the reproductive years, for instance, in response to substantial weight gain.
Signs and symptoms vary from person to person, in both type and severity. To be diagnosed with the condition, your doctor looks for at least two of the following:

Infertility because of not ovulating. In fact, PCOS is the most common cause of female infertility.
Infrequent, absent, and/or irregular menstrual periods
Hirsutism — increased hair growth on the face, chest, stomach, back, thumbs, or toes
Cysts on the ovaries
Acne, oily skin, or dandruff
Weight gain or obesity, usually with extra weight around the waist
Male-pattern baldness or thinning hair
Patches of skin on the neck, arms, breasts, or thighs that are thick and dark brown or black
Skin tags — excess flaps of skin in the armpits or neck area
Pelvic pain
Anxiety or depression
Sleep apnea — when breathing stops for short periods of time while asleep

How to diagnose PCOS?

There is no single test to diagnose PCOS. Your doctor will take the following steps to find out if you have PCOS or if something else is causing your symptoms. During this process, your doctor takes many factors into account:

Medical history. Your doctor will ask about your menstrual periods, weight changes, and other symptoms.

Physical exam. Your doctor will want to measure your blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), and waist size. He or she also will check the areas of increased hair growth. You should try to allow the natural hair to grow for a few days before the visit.

Pelvic exam. Your doctor might want to check to see if your ovaries are enlarged or swollen by the increased number of small cysts.

Blood tests. Your doctor may check the androgen hormone and glucose (sugar) levels in your blood.

Vaginal ultrasound (sonogram). Your doctor may perform a test that uses sound waves to take pictures of the pelvic area. It might be used to examine your ovaries for cysts and check the endometrium (lining of the womb). This lining may become thicker if your periods are not regular.

Early diagnosis is important as it can allow symptoms to be managed and may prevent the development of long-term health problems such as diabetes.

Treating polycystic ovary syndrome

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can't be cured, but the symptoms can be managed. Treatment options can vary as someone with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) may experience a range of symptoms, or just one. There's no cure for PCOS, but the symptoms can be treated. Depending on the problems, management of PCOS can include lifestyle modifications, weight reduction and treatment with hormones or medications.

If you have PCOS and are overweight, losing weight and eating a healthy diet can help reduce some symptoms. Medications are also available to treat symptoms such as excessive hair growth, irregular periods and fertility problems. If fertility medications are ineffective, a simple surgical procedure called laparoscopic ovarian drilling (LOD) may be recommended. This involves using heat or a laser to destroy the tissue in the ovaries that's producing androgens such as testosterone. With treatment, most women with PCOS are able to get pregnant. Early diagnosis and treatment can help control the symptoms and prevent long-term problems. Your doctor and specialists can advise you about what treatment best suits you.

Regular checkups are important for catching any PCOS complications, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, uterine cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. Getting treatment for PCOS can help with these concerns and help boost your self-esteem. You are not alone and there are resources available for women with PCOS.

Menopause - Symptoms and Types of Menopause
The trend towards later maternity is strongest among women with better educational qualifications, as they increasingly postpone child rearing to pursue their careers.
On the whole, babies are more likely to be planned and wanted by women in their thirties. There is evidence that older women express greater satisfaction and feel they are ready to have a child because they have been fulfilled in their lives before that time. The notion of sacrifice is more often talked about in younger mothers. Older mothers may want to spend more time with their children."

Most of the degenerative changes, pre menopausal problems and metabolic diseases, thyroid dysfunction, cancers of breast and genital organs and deteriorating vision start from mid thirties, let us say around 35 years only. For preventive and optimal healthcare, we have to start early from the mid thirties, while later comes curative and palliative stage. The most common problem faced by the females over age 35 is menopause. Lets learn what to expect and ways to stay strong and healthy in the years around menopause.

Menopause

Menopause is a natural process that occurs as a woman’s ovaries stop producing eggs and the production of female hormones (estrogen and progesterone) declines. Menopause can also occur if a woman’s ovaries are damaged by certain diseases or cancer treatments, or if they are surgically removed. Menopause usually happens gradually between the ages of 45 - 55. The average age that women reach menopause is 51 years although it can occur as early as age 40 to as late as the early 60s. Women now have a life expectancy of more than 80 years. Currently, women can expect to live some 30 or 40 years of their life in the postmenopausal state.

Menopause does not occur suddenly. A period called perimenopause usually begins a few years before the last menstrual cycle. There are two stages in the transition:

1) Early Stage. Pre menopause can begin in some women in their 30s, but most often it starts in women ages 40 - 44. It is marked by changes in menstrual flow and in the length of the cycle. There may be sudden surges in estrogen.

2) Late Stage. The late stages of pre menopause usually occur when a woman is in her late 40s or early 50s. In the late stages of the menopausal transition, women begin missing the periods until they finally stop. About 6 months before menopause, estrogen levels drop significantly. The fall in estrogen triggers the typical symptoms of vaginal dryness and hot flashes (which can last from half a year to more than 5 years after onset of menopause).

Menopause is considered to have occurred after a woman has gone a full 12 months without a period. Menopause marks the end of menstruation and a women’s fertility.
Menopause is not a disease. However, many conditions are associated with estrogen depletion, including heart disease, osteoporosis, and other complications. Fortunately, effective treatments are available for these conditions.

Many women experience some physical and emotional symptoms during menopause, caused by hormonal imbalance. Typically, a woman will begin to experience menopause symptoms around her mid-40's as her body's reproductive capability comes to the end. This prolonged stage of gradually falling and fluctuating hormone levels is called per menopause, which can last upwards of two years before a woman's final period. For most women, symptoms end at menopause; however, some women will experience symptoms into postmenopausal life. The first symptom is usually a change in the pattern of your monthly periods. The start of the menopause is known as the pre menopausal stage. During this time, you may have light or heavy periods.The frequency of your periods may also be affected. You may have a period every two-three weeks, or you may not have one for months at a time. Other prominent symptoms of the transition to menopause include:

1) Hot flashes and night sweats . Women often feel hot flashes as an intense build-up in body heat, followed by sweating and chills. Some women report accompanying anxiety as the sensation builds. In most cases, hot flashes last for 3 - 5 years, although they may linger in some women for years after menopause. Women who have surgical removal of both ovaries, and who do not receive hormone replacement therapy, may have more severe hot flashes than women who enter menopause naturally.

2) Heart pounding or racing can occur, with or without hot flashes.

3) Difficulty sleeping . Insomnia is common during perimenopause. It may be caused by the hot flashes, or it may be an independent symptom of hormonal changes.

4) Mood changes . Mood changes are most likely to be a combination of sleeplessness, hormonal swings, and psychological factors as a woman undergoes this intense passage in her life. Once a woman has reached a menopausal state, however, depression is no more common than before, and women with a history of premenstrual depression often have significant mood improvement.

5) Sexuality . Sexual responsiveness tends to decline in most women after menopause, although other aspects of sexual function, including interest, frequency, and vaginal dryness vary. It is useful to remember that most symptoms of menopause eventually go away.

6) Forgetfulness . This appears to be one of the few symptoms that are common across most cultural and ethnic groups.

7) Urinary symptoms. During the menopause, you are more likely to experience recurrent lower urinary tract infections, such as cystitis. You may also feel an urgent and frequent need to pass urine.

8) vaginal dryness and pain, itching or discomfort during sex.

9) Joint stiffness .

10) Skin, Hair and Other Tissue Changes. With the increase in the age, you will experience changes in your skin and hair. Loss of fatty tissue and collagen will make your skin drier and thinner and will affect the elasticity and lubrication of the skin near your vagina and urinary tract. Reduced estrogen production may contribute to hair loss or cause your hair to feel brittle and dry.

Women from different countries and states have different menopausal symptoms. Menopause is not a disease. However, many conditions are associated with estrogen depletion, including heart disease, osteoporosis, and other complications. Fortunately, effective treatments are available for these conditions. After the menopause it is common for the following complications to appear.

Cardiovascular disease - a drop in estrogen levels often goes hand-in-hand with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Women who experience early menopause are almost twice as likely as the general population to have a heart attack, stroke, or other cardiovascular disease later in life. In order to reduce the risk of developing cardiovascular disease a woman should quit smoking, try to keep her cholesterol, blood sugar, and blood pressure within normal, healthy levels, do plenty of regular exercise, sleep at least 7 hours each night, and eat a well-balanced healthy diet.

Osteoporosis - Bone density may be lost at a fast rate for the first few years after menopause because estrogen plays a role in building new bone. The risk of fractures to the hip, wrist, and spine are especially pronounced in postmenopausal women.

Urinary incontinence - the menopause causes the tissues of the vagina and urethra to lose their elasticity, which can result in frequent, sudden, strong urges to urinate, followed by urge incontinence (involuntary loss of urine). Stress incontinence may also become a problem - urinating involuntarily after coughing, sneezing, laughing, lifting something, or suddenly jerking the body.

Urinary Tract Infections - Because of vaginal drying, women are at increased risk for recurrent urinary tract infections after menopause.

Low libido - this is probably linked to disturbed sleep, depression symptoms, and night sweats.

Overweight/obesity - during the menopausal transition women are much more susceptible to weight gain because metabolism slows. Experts say women may need to consume about 200 to 400 fewer calories each day just to prevent weight gain - or burn of that number of calories each day with extra exercise. The chances of becoming obese rises significantly after the menopause.

Breast cancer - women are at a higher risk of breast cancer after the menopause. Regular exercise and check ups after menopause significantly reduces breast cancer risk.

Skin and Hair Changes - Estrogen loss can contribute to slackness and dryness in the skin and wrinkles. Many women experience thinning of their hair and some have temporary hair loss.

Lifestyle Changes Changing and improving lifestyle is the basic factor in preventing 50% of ageing and metabolic diseases. Making lifestyle changes may help ease the discomfort of menopause symptoms. Simple changes in lifestyle and diet can help control menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes. Avoid hot flash triggers like spicy foods, hot beverages, caffeine, and alcohol. Dress in layers so that clothes can be removed when a hot flash occurs. For vaginal dryness, moisturizers, and non-estrogen lubricants are available. Quit smoking, get enough sleep, and make a conscious effort to eat healthily and exercise more to keep symptoms of menopause under wrap and keep yourself fit and healthy. One of the keys to enjoying menopause is to try to keep up a happy and healthy lifestyle. The right diet, open communication with your partner, and stress relief are examples of ways to make life the most easy in menopause.

How long will the phases of menopause lasts in women is completely individual. Most women experience the majority of their symptoms over a 2-year period of time’, but that will just annoy those women who find themselves still up to the eyeballs in hot flushes after 5 years. The average age when menopause is on is around 52 years old, but many women start in their 40s and some not until their late 50s, so really you just have to see what happens for you.

The ultimate aim is to give healthy lives in later age, to compressor illness in to short period of time, to reduce morbidity and disability of ageing women passing more than one third of their life in the menopausal age.

High-risk pregnancy Clinic Surat
Pregnancy is a time for joy. But when you’re facing the risk of complications, anxiety, fear and uncertainty can take over. The term high-risk pregnancy does not in any way mean that you’re destined to have problems with your pregnancy. In fact, the majority of women who have so-called high-risk pregnancies go on to have problem-free pregnancies and give birth to healthy babies. A high-risk pregnancy results when some condition puts the mother or the developing fetus, or both, at an increased risk for complications during or after pregnancy and birth. A high-risk pregnancy can be stressful. A high-risk pregnancy might pose challenges before, during or after delivery. If you have a high-risk pregnancy, you and your baby might need special monitoring or care throughout your pregnancy.

Many things can put you at high risk. Being called "high-risk" may sound scary. But it's just a way for doctors to make sure that you get special attention during your pregnancy. Your doctor will watch you closely during your pregnancy to find any problems early. The conditions listed below put you and your baby at a higher risk for problems, such as slowed growth for the baby, preterm labor, preeclampsia, and problems with the placenta. But it's important to remember that being at high risk doesn't mean that you or your baby will have problems. As many as 10 percent of pregnancies are considered high risk, but with expert care, 95 percent of these special cases result in the birth of healthy babies.

Specific factors that might contribute to a high-risk pregnancy include:

1) Advanced maternal age. Pregnancy risks are higher for mothers age 35 and older and younger than 17.

2) Lifestyle choices. Smoking cigarettes, drinking alcohol and using illegal drugs can put a pregnancy at risk.

3) Medical history. A prior C-section, low birth weight baby or preterm birth — birth before 37 weeks of pregnancy — might increase the risks for subsequent pregnancies. Other risk factors include a fetal genetic condition, a family history of genetic conditions, a history of pregnancy loss or the death of a baby shortly after birth.

4) Underlying conditions. Chronic conditions — such as diabetes, high blood pressure, cancer, Kidney disease and epilepsy — increase pregnancy risks. A blood condition, such as anemia, an infection or an underlying mental health condition also can increase pregnancy risks.

5) Pregnancy complications. Various complications that develop during pregnancy pose risks, such as problems with the uterus, cervix or placenta, or severe morning sickness that continues past the first trimester. Other concerns might include too much amniotic fluid (polyhydramnios) or too little amniotic fluid (oligohydramnios), restricted fetal growth or Rh (rhesus) sensitization — a potentially serious condition that can occur when your blood group is Rh negative and your baby's blood group is Rh positive.

6) Multiple pregnancy. Pregnancy risks are higher for women carrying twins or higher order multiples.

7) Overdue pregnancy. You might face additional risks if your pregnancy continues too long beyond the due date.

8) Your baby has been found to have a genetic condition, such as Down syndrome, or a heart, lung, or kidney problem.

9) You have had three or more miscarriages.

10) You had a problem in a past pregnancy, such as preterm labor, preeclampsia or seizures and having a baby with a genetic problem, such as Down syndrome.

11) You have an infection, such as HIV or hepatitis C. Other infections that can cause a problem include cytomegalovirus (CMV), chickenpox, rubella, toxoplasmosis, and syphilis.

Other health problems can make your pregnancy a high-risk. These include heart valve problems, sickle cell disease, asthma, lupus, and rheumatoid arthritis. Talk to your doctor before if you have any health problems before conceiving.

What types of doctors are recommended for a high-risk pregnancy?

Some women will see a doctor who has extra training in high-risk pregnancies. These doctors are called maternal-fetal specialists, or perinatologists. You may see this doctor and your regular doctor. The specialist may be your doctor throughout your pregnancy.

To have a healthy pregnancy and healthy baby you must consider the following points.
Go to all your doctor visits so that you don't miss tests to catch any new problems.
Eat a healthy diet that includes protein, milk and milk products, fruits, and vegetables.
Take any medicines, iron, or vitamins that your doctor prescribes.
Take folic acid daily. Folic acid is a B vitamin.
Follow your doctor's instructions for physical activity and exercise.
Do not smoke. Avoid other people's tobacco smoke.
Do not drink alcohol.
Stay away from people who have colds and other infections.

What else do I need to know about high-risk pregnancy?
Consult your health care provider about how to manage any medical conditions you might have during your pregnancy and how your health might affect labor and delivery. Ask your health care provider to discuss specific signs or symptoms to look out for, such as Vaginal bleeding, persistent headaches, pain or cramping in the lower abdomen, watery vaginal discharge, regular or frequent contractions, decreased fetal activity, pain or burning with urination and changes in vision, including blurred vision.

Talk to your clinic and specialist about the conditions in which you should contact them and when to seek emergency care. A high-risk pregnancy might have ups and downs. It is always best to stay positive and take steps to promote a healthy pregnancy. Your pregnancy requires extra-special care, so follow your doctor’s orders and try to relax. Thanks to advances in medical technologies and good prenatal care, you are more likely than ever to have a healthy pregnancy, delivery, and baby.
