Women’s Hormonal Profile

Hormonal balance plays a crucial role in the biological health of women. The glands in the brain and ovaries secret the hormones that affect the menstrual cycle and fertility of the women. Imbalance in the production of these hormones can severely affect the reproductive and biological health of a lady. Care and attention are needed when a girl enters the age of puberty and begins with the menstrual cycle. Close monitoring and regular check-ups become essential if a girl complains about the irregular menstrual cycle, excess blood flow, or unbearable pain. The situation also needs importance and concern when a lady approaches middle-age and is on the verge of reproductive organs shutting down, nearing menopause.

Intrauterine insemination(IUI)

Technological innovations are revolutionizing the world around us. INTRAUTERINE INSEMINATION(IUI) is one such example in the medical field. It is a fertility treatment wherein sperm is placed in the uterus to facilitate fertilization. It aims at increasing the number of sperms reaching a fallopian tube, which in return increases the chances of fertilization. However, the increase in the sperms in no case ensures results as reaching the egg and fertilizing it remains to be a part of sperm itself. The process begins with stimulating the ovulation and closely monitoring the maturity of eggs. Catheter helps in placing the sperms in the uterus, thus increasing the count of sperms and enhancing the chances of conception.
