How Can I Stop Climaxing Before Him?

How Can I Stop Climaxing Before Him?

 

Good day Doc,

I have read a lot about your good works from Daily Sun newspaper. I am a woman in my forties, any time I have sex with my partner, I will be the first to release in less than 5 minutes and he always complain about it, that it is not good for a woman to first release before the man, that we suppose to release the same time, I don't know the cause, please can you help me out by finding solution to this?.

counting on your support and early reply.

Dear Mimi

You do not need to stop climaxing so fast; you need to climax more times than one; that is all!!! Your man needs plenty of sex education. You obviously do, too. If the man releases or comes to orgasm before the woman, this is not good; it is not the best because he cannot continue; he is limp; his organ cannot continue the action; he leaves her high and dry. But like your partner said, if they arrive at orgasm together, yes, that is best and we all must agree on that. But if the woman climaxes or releases before the man like in your case, it is a great plus for the man. All he needs to do is give her a second climax; may be a third; maybe a fourth orgasm; because women are capable of being multi-orgasmic where men are, generally, not. That is all. He needs to learn what to do and how to do it. He should not be condemning you when he should be jumping up at his great fortune; okay? You have no problem. Let anyone who is interested in making their woman multi-orgasmic send for the report from us to betterloverz@yahoo.com or docmarrylove@yahoo.com

Cheers

Systemic Fungal Infection

Dear Dr,

I am a male, 27 and over some few months ago have been having some difficulty treating this systematic yeast infection also known as Candida albicans which is a systematic fungal infection. Some of the symptoms I have are oral thrush which is a white coating on my tongue; fungal skin infections like Jock Itch or itching of the genitals, moving thing around my body like ring worm in my intestines and leg; fatigue, Dry mouth, bad breath, Headaches, stomach disorders: diarrhea or constipation, unpleasant genital disorder and under arm disorders.

I have done the medical test for HIV, Diabetes, STD, Organ test which all came out negative and normal for organs so I was given some anti-fungal drugs but nothing is working. Have tried diet and supplements; everything; but nothing seems to work. Please I really need your help and recommendation (asap) - as soon as possible - on curing this systemic fungal infection called Candida albicans because I can’t function and I am very uncomfortable to have a normal life with this condition. Please help me

Victor Christa, Benin

Dear Victor,

Candida albicans is the most common germ cause of itching in the genitals. It is a fungus that grows on the skin and mucous membranes which is the pink inner lining of the body cavities like the pink lining of the mouth and vagina. Wikipedia says, “Candidiasis is a fungal infection due to any type of Candida (a type of yeast). When it affects the mouth, it is commonly called thrush. Signs and symptoms include white patches on the tongue or other areas of the mouth and throat. Other symptoms may include soreness and problems swallowing. When it affects the vagina, it is commonly called a yeast infection. Signs and symptoms include genital itching, burning, and sometimes a white "cottage cheese-like" discharge from the vagina. Less commonly the penis may be affected, resulting in itchiness. Very rarely, the infection may become invasive spreading throughout the body, resulting in fevers along with other symptoms depending on the parts of the body affected.

More than 20 types of Candida can cause infection with Candida albicans being the most common. Infections of the mouth are most common among children less than one month old, the elderly, and those with weak immune systems. Conditions that result in a weak immune system include HIV/AIDS, the medications used after organ transplantation, diabetes, and the use of corticosteroids. Other risks include dentures and following antibiotic therapy. Vaginal infections occur more commonly during pregnancy, in those with weak immune systems, and following antibiotic use. Risk for widespread infection includes being in an intensive care unit, following surgery, low birth weight infants, and those with weak immune systems".

We, on our part, have prepared a free report on “When Itching Refuses to Stop” detailing practical points on genital itching which we will send free to anyone who asks for it by email or text. Treatment is simple but getting totally free can be a problem as a number of factors pose as a challenge to self-medicators. Generally anti-fungal medicines need to be used (as the medications are not over-the counter but prescription medicines, we disclose them only in treatment situations) for a specified period; with certain precautions and steps taken to prevent auto-re-infection; a situation when the patient re-infects himself or herself without knowing. In your case, it would seem there is more than Candidiasis involved and until we can see you face to face for thorough interview, physical examination and tests, we shall not be able to say categorically what the matter really is.

HIVPositve; Partner Negative

HIVPositve; Partner Negative
Dr,
Can you please explain to me how we can start having babies?
I am 26yrs old, HIV positive and I have a guy who wants 2 marry me. He is 34yrs and he is a lawyer. He loves me and he wants 2 marry me but he said he does not know how we can start having babies without his contacting HIV. So, I need your help and advice.
I began to take anti-retroviral drugs since April 2005 and I discovered that my breasts bring out milk. Doctor prescribed bromagon for me. I took d whole dose which is in d bottle but d milk is still coming out so, please help.
I have not allowed him 2 touch me yet because I don't want him 2 know about d breast milk that is coming out and he said he wants to settle down as soon as possible with me. Please reply me. Thank u
Laura, Lokoja
 

Dear Laura,
You must understand one thing, both of you. Love is the greatest. Love is the strongest force in the universe -- and that is what you both have between you and in your arsenal. Of course, if this boy does not love you, he cannot think of marrying you, no tot talk of proposing; right? If you love him, tell him all-- milk from breast and all -- and see -- if he will not love you the more. You don't understand? Well God is love -- that's what the Good Book says!!! And many waters cannot quench the fire of love. Love also covers a multitude of sins; so be free and fully naked before your lover-- there is no fear in love; see? Good. Catching the disease? Well, even though there is love, it is always wise to be reasonable. Catching the disease from man to woman is faster than from woman to man; that’s for one -- this is because the surface area of the genitals from where the bug can be caught, you will agree is much wider in the woman than in the man. But again, you have been on ARV's -- so your viral load should be minimal. Now ARV's are cheap and almost free; it will be even easier to procure the precious meds. This is another factor on your side-- both of you. Now, to catch disease from partner to the other is not automatic. The defense capabilities of all humans are not the same -- one person can resist disease better than another; so, it is possible he may never catch anything from you. If you add faith to all that and then one last ingredient -- make the faith active -- come see us or some other doctor/priest who understands these things-- I can guarantee you that you will never get him infected; okay? Nor your babies -- though transmission / infection rates from mother to child is like just 13 --20 %. So on balance I would encourage you to go for love --it conquers all things. To you the lady particularly I would say do not postpone marriage for any excuse or reason; okay? Marry your loving suitor and deal with the challenges in the way I suggested. You will testify. (But if after all I have said anyone of you still has some fears, forget what I said and play safe; okay? Though faith can work wonders, fear does the direct opposite; okay?)

She Seduced Me!!

She Seduced Me!!
Good day Doctor,
Firstly, let me thank you for your effort in solving people`s problem, may your days be long with good health. please doctor am a male, I will be twenty by August.
I 've been living a single life ever since meaning that I have never dated a girl in my whole life, but unfortunately for me , November, 2013, a friend of mine (16 years old girl) came to my house and seduced me to have sex with her, but I was afraid because of disease and the rest but she forced me that I now decided to do it after all she is a very small girl she might not be infected with any disease. So I made love to her with a condom but along the line, she used her finger nail to touch the condom and it got torn right inside her, so when I discovered that the condom has been removed I quickly stood up and got dressed then I begged to leave. Doctor after sometime, I begin to noticed that, whenever am stooling, something like milk or pus do come out from my manhood. and I don't know if it is an std or not and I've been living with it since. So doctor please tell me is it an std, what is the name, and which drug can I take to cure it?  I'm living here in Borno, is it native or Western  medicine? Doctor please what are the effects of this? Please am dying slowly of this I need urgent response from you doctor. Mail it directly to this mail as soon as you receive it. Please I don't want it to be published.
Thanks and God bless you.
Nur'deen from Borno State.

 Dear Nur'deen,
It is really unfortunate when this kind of thing occurs-- but your letter is a very good opportunity to warn youths out there that this kind of thing happens -- all the time. Women-- girls --demonic agents-- can also "rape" men!! God have mercy on us!! What you have is Chronic Prostatitis(CPR). Any male who discharges without sex has CPR--What other symptoms are there? Let's list some ten a)Back ache b) Waist pains c)Sexual Inadequacies of all sorts-- only one round; weak erection; painful penis; premature ejaculation; delayed ejaculation; reduced or no pleasure; dying penis at the sight of vagina-- name it-- d)low sperm count; or zero sperm count; e)problems with urination-- frequency; scattered stream; smelly; etc  f)pain in the pelvis/groin that refuses to go; g)funny feelings and sensations in the pelvis -- like-- h) movements and i) heat and j)itching; then k) discharge during stools or urination. CPR is not usually easy to treat --and yes-- you are right-- most men who have it can pinpoint the exact girl they had sex with before it all started-- and to cap it all -- the funny behavior/ peculiar something that happened during the encounter! CPR can be caused by an STD causing germ; yes. Gonorrhea and Chlamydia refer here. But also ordinary urinary tract infection bugs can also do it. Like E.Coli; Klebsiella; Proteus and so on. Lastly, generally ubiquitous(found everywhere) germs like Staphylococcus; Streptococcus; Candida also can cause it. Treatment? It is complicated and needs expertise. A key is that CPR is the male equivalent of PID -- although PID is much easier to treat. Call my helplines. We'll get you fully well.

Internal Heat

Internal Heat
Good day Doc,
I have been following up with some of the problems people present to you in your health column in the Sun news paper, And so many of them have thanked you for your answer and solution to them with regards to their health problem. Please Doc I will like to know what causes internal body heat especially after sex? I have gone through AIDS test and its negative. I have only one sex partner, I do not smoke nor drink, Am just 28 and am being bothered. Please I will be glad if you send a piece of your reply to my mail box.
Thanks and God bless you.
Tooya Tant'Oloun, Abeokuta, Ogun 

Dear Tooya,

Let me first of all congratulate you that you have only one partner and you are HIV Negative. Let me also advise that your best bet is to marry as soon as possible so that you can have the safest sex-- we do not know what your only one partner gets up to behind your back. Now to your main query. The key to answering you satisfactorily is found in the phrase "especially after sex" which means not always after sex but many times after sex. So, we see that, very likely, it has nothing to do with the sex but it's just that it has happened to happen that way in the past. Internal heat must be defined as the feeling of hotness in the body without any evidence of the thermometer recording. Have you taken your temperature to find out what it says at such times or you simply assumed it would read? If you feel hot and the thermometer is reading and recording increases in your temperature, that is not internal heat ; it is fever. If however, you feel hot without thermometer evidence, what you have, truly, is internal heat. Internal heat is simply another of the possible manifestations of Somatisation Syndrome -- a common complaint in cases of anxiety neurosis in these parts. Somatisation occurs this way --when your mind is under stress -- maybe there are conflicts, worries and uncertainties that bother you but you suppress in your mind, the mind uses the avenue of these feelings--such as internal heat; crawling sensation; thumping or pulsating sensation, things moving all over the body, and things jumping from one part of the body to the other to make you sit up and realize there is something wrong that you need to correct. This is the Somatisation Syndrome -- patients whose actual diagnosis is Anxiety Neurosis manifesting and signaling their psychological ill--health as bodily symptoms when there is absolutely nothing wrong with their bodies. These symptoms are real and treatable (in this context this means we can give you medicines that will remove them) but they are not because the body is malfunctioning; it is because the mind is facing some hidden challenges. See a psychologist/psychiatrist who will treat you according to findings as to what is the cause or root -- in your mind , of course -- of the feeling of heat without any temperature rise. If, however, it is only after sex with the lady you feel the heat; that's another kettle of fish. Send to me if it is so, and we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

Almost Commited Suicide

"About to Commit Suicide!!"

Dear Dr,
Could you please convince me you cure Staphylococcus? Any stories about people you cured?
Jana Jebba; Jos

Dear Jana, 
I could tell you many stories but I'll stick with just one which we'll call "About to Commit Suicide!!"

Around July/August 2003, a very successful but unmarried business man of 32 years of age wanted to commit suicide but decided to just come see me first before he would kill himself. The problem, you would have guessed right, was Staphylococcus. Ten years of torment was enough, he had decided. He had been to different hospitals/doctors and had spent a ton of money on the ailment. I was the seventh doctor he was seeing. Herbal practitioners also had been consulted -all to no avail. He had refused to consider thinking about marriage because of this ailment. He had deliberately neglected and let go of a relationship he really cherished but felt he could not, in all good conscience, continue with when he knew he had this ailment that had seemingly defied a cure. He was tired and despairing of life - he had seriously considered suicide. At 32 he had no woman and was, frankly, not interested at all. He had began building his own house in Lagos and it was a beauty to behold, judging by the photos he showed me. I asked him how he thought a house was complete without a woman but he was disinterested in that consideration– all he sought was to get well– and he was afraid he was not going to. Apart from Staphylococcus — or along with it, he also complained that his manhood was too small!!! And that, I believe, was contributory to his refusal to marry or even consider it!!! Like I said, despite the fact that God blessed him greatly, he was ready to give it all up and just kill himself — so terrible and wickedly persisting were his Staph woes — itching, movement/ funny feelings in the organ, weak erection, discharge from the penis during urination, frequency in urination, waist and back pain and ache etc, etc all beset him terribly. The worst was that after treatment in all the places he had been to for help — after sometimes feeling well, he discovered the evil symptoms would come back!!! He was in tears as he narrated his woes, imploring me seriously to help him if I could. I assured him he was going to get well and encouraged him to get out of his depressive state of mind. We finally started treatment after doing extensive tests on him and spending substantial time interviewing him to get to know what was the source of the problem and what clues we could find to help with his treatment and once-for all cure. Once we began treatment I must say I discovered in him a star patient!!. He came for his injections/shots regularly, kept review and follow-up appointments with the doctor very religiously, always calling to confirm his appointments. He also paid up promptly and joyfully because he acknowledged the fact that we were giving him very high value for what he was paying for. Needless to say, by October ending that year, he had become so well that he had returned to his lost love and by December I met her and I was discussing wedding plans with him!! No more return or recrudescence of the symptoms or complaints — everything gone and gone forever. In fact, exactly about 15 months after I saw him last, he came again to see me. What for? He brought his cousin — a lady — for some other complaints. When I inquired from him about all his former woes, he assured me he never saw anything like those challenges again ever since he had seen me last!!! No wonder he was ready to marry that fast!!! To God’s glory, we cured him –like we will also permanently cure you when you come over to see us. 

Pregnant But No Child In Her Womb!!

Pregnant But No Child In Her Womb!!

Dear Doc,

I feel at home with the way you treat peoples' questions, and decided to 
write you a personal one. I am a young man of 32 years and married for two years now but no issue to show for it.  Our problem now is that of confusion.  When my wife and I 
decided to really start a search for a child, we went for various tests  which showed that my wife was alright but with slight fibroid, which the doctors said would not hinder her from conceiving.  I was found to have a  low sperm count problem and was placed on treatment.  This greatly improved to up to 74 million, and I was given a clean bill of health as able to 
impregnate my wife. My wife took in twice and it all went out after the first month.  We 
continued until we decided to try herbs to fight the fibroid.  The herb woman told my wife the very first time, that she was one month pregnant.  We rejoiced and started thinking of our baby.  However lately, she went to  hospital for scan after three months, and was told that there was no child  in her womb.  Meanwhile, her tummy is protruding, breast enlarging, she feels very heavy, experiences sleepiness and drowsiness in the early mornings, and once or twice has almost thrown up in the morning.
The problem is that with all these signs, is it possible that she is not pregnant?  And if not, what could be growing in her tummy, since it is not  fibroid.  Please, advice us before we do something stupid.  Please, do reply through this mail address while sharing same in the papers for those facing the same kind of confusion.
Thanks again for your interest.
Yours truly,
Dylan Thomas; Enugu

Dear Dylan,

There is bad news and then good news for you. The classical diagnosis any Western-trained doctor will give you is what is called Pseudocyesis or False Pregnancy. Ultrasound scan was done for your wife. There is no evidence of a pregnancy or a baby in her womb. The pregnancy is false. Your wife has some funny thing wrong with her. Perhaps she should see a psychologist or a psychiatrist or at least a counselor. Full Stop; no hope; no way. What is the good news? About  seven years ago, a lady with her husband walked into my consultation room to see me. The lady was in tears. She showed me two reports of scan tests she did from the same scan centre about three months apart. The first showed that there was a baby. The second report showed, like your wife that there was no baby. Husband and wife were devastated. What happened? Where was their baby? She  was still looking pregnant?

To cut  a long story short, I told them what to do; they did it and after two weeks, they went back for a scan and the scan reported on the same woman that there was a baby in her womb now. Needless to say, they delivered the baby who is a boy and alive and well; a spitting image of the dad.

There are mysterious cases which we as mere doctors cannot handle without a consideration of not just the physical, but the physical, together with the mental and not forgetting the spiritual. When we see face to face we will successfully handle the challenge and any one with a similar story. Call the help lines

Worms and Movements in my Brain?

Worms and Movements in my Brain?

Dr. Bibbi,

I appreciate what you are doing concerning your regular article in the Sun newspaper. There is a little problem I'd like to share with you. Sometimes ago, I was feeling some movement inside my body, I went to a respectable government hospital where I undergo a urine test. The result of the test was negative. The doctor prescribed some a drug amongst which was a worm expeller. The movement disappears for sometimes. But now they've reappeared and it’s as if the worms or so I think have now invaded other parts of the body including probably the brain because I can feel some of the movements there. I even read it somewhere that the larvae of Ascaris can actually travel to the brain. Please what do you think I can do about it? Thank you very much. Please treat this ASAP.

TJO; Yola; Adamawa

Dear TJO,

The plain truth is -- no worms move into the head  of anybody --as in you begin to feel the worms and its movement; okay? Oh some can move across the eye-- the famous Loa loa does this -- and you can feel some in your throat and anus, and a times under the skin -- but in reality when folks talk about worms moving all over their body -- or if not worms -- other things -- some say objects; others say "something", it is well known among doctors all over the world -- as well as psychiatrists and is called "Somatisation Syndrome. Let me explain -- When you hear the word "syndrome" in medicine, it means doctors do not fully understand what is going on. Somatisation comes from the Greek word "soma" meaning body. Yes the patient feels bodily symptoms; no doubt, BUT their origin is not in the body-- there is no physical or organic -- as in organ -- problem; no. Nothing wrong with the physical kidney, lung, eye, brain, bone or any other physical organ--vagina, penis -- call it whatever you like-- It is a problem originating  in -- not the body, but the  mind. How? Does this mean the patient is mad or going mad or imagining things? NOT AT ALL!!!  It only means that there are anxieties, conflicts, worries, uncertainties, guilt, fears, some hidden stress or the other affecting the patient's MIND and causing the symptoms felt... Example? Oh, he could be rewriting JAMB or doing post-JAMB verification. The landlord could be after him. He could have slept with his neighbour's wife; the EFCC could be after him-- these hidden strains are becoming overwhelming and his mind -- since nobody can see the mind to know when and how to take care of it --is now trying to make him resolve the issues by turning the hidden conflicts to bodily symptoms that the mind knows will be easily taken notice of and addressed. In Africans, a whole lot of research has shown that it is such conditions --we call them "neuroses"-- that foster things like the feeling that worms or ants or objects are moving all over the body -- when in reality they are not. The remedy? 1. Explanation as I have done.2. Recognition of the hidden cause of trouble in the mind. 3. Counseling to resolve the issue. 4. Certain anxiolytics or neuroleptics -- medicines that work on the mind-body connection  to relieve these feelings while the patient --if properly tutored has time to sort themselves out.

But then, why did you feel better when you were given worm meds? First-- the doctor should have attempted to document if you had worms in reality -- very simply ordered an analysis of your stool. It really could be you have worms. But if I were to hazard a guess, I would say, no. Worms or worm medicine really had not one thing to do with your feeling better. You see, you just had a psychological relief that is common --- and recognized by well-trained doctors -- that whenever you see a doctor and take some medication whether the medication works or not you and your mind being now put at rest that you are in good hands, begin -- automatically to get better -- even if what you got from the doctor was ordinary starch or just chalk. We call this the placebo effect. It is because of this that Western trained doctors insist on vigorously testing remedies; medicaments and what have you-- just to make sure that they really work -- and the stories of success you hear about whatever the remedy are not just due to the placebo effect. What to do now? See a good doctor (if you want to see us-- send a mail for our address) who understands what he is about. Better a psychiatrist.  He should sort you out easily. If not, send me feedback

Cheers

Emotionally Devastated

Emotionally Devastated

Dear Doc,
I love your column-and need this urgent advice; due to my inability to mingle with the opposite sex-[i got a history of 17 turn-offs-spurned because of
man-got-no-pay-syndrome-]and the so-called sanctimonious attitude of our so-called born again girls-which leaves much to be desired! now-I masturbate for like 7 times a day; I'm 30.never dated again in 9 months-and 4 years running I've been so depressed and emotionally devastated to trust any woman-will masturbation harm me? You are the doctor -please publish this[and send me a response- because, I won't be in town
during this weekend-let others read my example-those who suffer likewise- maybe you can tell me when we will see when I get back-but write!
thanks!
Georges Humbunu, Badagry

 

 

Dear Georges,

The truth is -- at 30 you could be married and fulfilling both yourself and someone who is very likely very lonely at this time. But what do we have? Masturbation -- from you and maybe herself too --out of frustration. Masturbation is bad? Well-- for one it is compulsive -- almost addictive; so that a times married masturbators prefer it to real intercourse! That's the problem and because nobody can masturbate without phantasising, unsuspected invasion by spirits of incubi and succubi is too common but hidden. But we can go beyond these real challenges-- how to get a lady to listen to you; how to settle down in marriage; how to stop masturbating. We can and want to take you to the place of fulfillment. All you need is proper counseling and mentoring and you'll get there. Begin by befriending a few male friends who seem to know what to do around the ladies and watch them. This will help you focus on the area of your confidence. Be ready to follow guidelines and instructions. Call the help-lines. Imagine how much STD we can prevent by the proper counseling in matters like these!

Ovulation Or Menstruation?

Ovulation Or Menstruation?

 

Good day Sir,
 Please my wife's ovulation does not flow very well and when we went  for a lab test she was said to have a scanty growth of E-coli isolated. I want to know what drugs will be suitable so as to know if it's the cause of her ovulation not flowing well.  Thanks.

Jerry Jaza, Ijebu-Ode

 

Dear Jerry,

Ovulation does not flow; it is menstruation that flows. All women of reproductory age ( that is before  menopause) bleed regularly every month (between 24 and 35 days --usually 28--) and that flow of blood lasting between 2 and 7 days (usually five) is what is called menstruation. Other names for this monthly flow of blood  are period and  menses. All these words are used interchangeably and they mean the same thing. These ten things are the common causes of menses that does not flow well. 1.too much prolactin; a hormonal disorder that can cause the breasts to be producing milk even when not pregnant or breastfeeding;  2.pregnancy - a times a woman is pregnant but does not know it yet; especially if she is afflicted with 3.low progesterone; another hormonal problem; 4.polycystic ovary syndrome; a complicated cause of scanty or no flow of periods which is also a major cause of infertility; 5.breastfeeding -most breastfeeding women have no menses or low flow; 6.weight challenges-either extreme low weight or obesity;7.stress-- maybe exams or some loss in the family, etc; 8.when thyroid gland function/production is low; 9.endometriosis-- another complicated cause of infertility; 10. the use of (usually hormonal)contraceptives. Where does all this blood/bleeding come from? It's from the womb of the woman which has been getting ready to host a visitor( the baby) and has prepared much stuff to care for the baby. When baby does not come (she never got pregnant) she throws out from the womb all the stuff she had prepared for the baby (that is the menstrual flow). Ovulation is a different thing entirely. The woman's egg is produced and is released once a month from the ovary (equivalent of the man's balls). The release of this egg is what is called ovulation and does not involve the flow of anything; so we don't talk of the flow of ovulation; we only talk of the flow of the woman's menses. Signs of ovulation include 1.It generally happens in the middle of her cycle(period of time from one menses to the other); 2. There is some heaviness of the breast; 3.There is some pain or discomfort in one side or both sides of the lower abdomen or pelvis; 4.There is a greater production of vaginal mucus 5.The vaginal mucus is much more  drawy/okro-like; 6.There may be some bleeding that accompanies ovulation which we call mid-cycle bleeding or mittelschmerz; 7; there will be temperature changes -- she feels hot or others cold  in an unnatural way; 8; she may feel bloated in the body or abdomen like she does during menses; 9; if she puts her long  finger inside herself; she will notice that her cervix or the mouth of her womb feels different in texture and 10 finally, she feels sexy; she wants to have sex. Medicines to use will depend on the particular cause of her problem. E. Coli is infection and the same laboratory that detected it will give a list of antibiotics that the doctor can choose to use to deal with it.

Breast Problems Breast Self- Examination

Breast Problems Breast Self- Examination
Dear Doctor,
I have a problem with my right breast. I started feeling pain in it about three weeks ago so I went to a general hospital close to my school. A doctor tested me and told me I had a lump in my right breast but  that I shouldn't panic that it could be removed anytime. He placed me on some drugs--ampliclox; folic acid and I've forgotten the rest. I just want your advice on what I should do because I'm still in school. I would be very grateful sir if you could reply through my mail

Dear Ladi,

Apart from malignancies or cancer, the breasts may be afflicted with bacterial infection called mastitis. Antibiotics, like the doctor gave you will treat that condition. Apart from mastitis common among breast feeding women, other non-cancer, non life-threatening or benign breast conditions are many and  they can cause symptoms, and some are linked with a higher risk of later developing breast cancer. The more notable among them include: Adenosis, Simple Breast cysts and fibrosis, Ductal and lobular hyperplasia, Fibroadenomas and Fat necrosis and oil cysts. It is the doctor's job, when you go to see her to check you out and do the necessary to determine what really your affliction is and how to treat it. Your own duty is to check your breasts regularly; not wait for when you feel pain or have trouble, but actively  and REGULARLY examine and re-examine them BY YOURSELF. This is called Breast Self -Examination and for how exactly to do this, I have resorted to  www.Breastcancer.org - Breast Cancer Information and Awareness for much of what follows in bold italics -- 

The Five Steps of a Breast Self-ExamStep 1: Begin by looking at your breasts in the mirror (as you face the mirror) with your shoulders straight and your arms on your hips. Here's what you should look for: i)Breasts that are their usual size, shape, and color. ii) Breasts that are evenly shaped without visible distortion or swelling. If you see  or feel any of the following changes, bring them to your doctor's attention: Dimpling, itching, puckering, or bulging of the skin/A nipple that has changed position or an inverted nipple (pushed inward instead of sticking out)/Redness, soreness, rash, or swelling. Step 2: Now, raise your arms and look for the same changes. Again, stand sideways to the mirror and look for any changes as you look at your breasts sideways. Step 3: While you're at the mirror, look for any signs of fluid coming out of one or both nipples (this could be a watery, milky, or yellow fluid or blood).

Step 4: Next, feel your breasts while lying down, using your right hand to feel your left breast and then your left hand to feel your right breast. Use a firm, smooth touch with the first few finger pads of your hand, keeping the fingers flat and together. Use a circular motion, about the size of a quarter. Cover the entire breast from top to bottom, side to side — from your collarbone to the top of your abdomen, and from your armpit to your cleavage. Follow a pattern to be sure that you cover the whole breast. You can begin at the nipple, moving in larger and larger circles until you reach the outer edge of the breast. You can also move your fingers up and down vertically, in rows, as  if  you were mowing a lawn. This up-and-down approach seems to work best for most women. Be sure to feel all the tissue from the front to the back of your breasts: for the skin and tissue just beneath, use light pressure; use medium pressure for tissue in the middle of your breasts while you are standing or sitting. Many women find that the easiest way to feel their breasts; use firm pressure for the deep tissue in the back. When you've reached the deep tissue, you should be able to feel down to your ribcage. Step 5: Finally, feel your breasts is when their skin is wet and slippery, so they like to do this step in the shower. Cover your entire breast, using the same hand movements described in step. 

It is  important to note that women's breasts can feel lumpy, swollen, painful and discomforting a few days before your menses begins  to flow .Such feelings may usually go away after the period has ended. Again, if you are an adolescent, you a retaking oral contraceptives , or are on other hormonal therapy or you are pregnant, your breasts may feel generally funny, lumpy or painful. However, when lumps or pain persist throughout  your menstrual cycle and not just during your periods, pain in your arm-pits , then you should be more sensitive about seeing a doctor. To help  decide if you are normal or not, try to keep a  diary or journal for 2 or 3 months noticing and recording how your breasts feel so that you can spot changes either related to the menstrual cycle or not. Also, just before your periods, you can wear a larger brassiere or a support, soft or sports bra so that  you feel more comfortable. Finally, just after your periods, once a month, is the best time to examine your breasts and if you have stopped having periods, take a day you can easily remember--maybe first of the month.

My Anus is Aching!!

 

My Anus is Aching!!
Dear Doctor,
Good day sir. I have a kind of ache in my anus. It was not there before. I just saw it and if I go to excrete I sometimes feel pain. I don't know what to do. I would be glad to hear from you soon.

 Dear Dennis,
If you feel this pain principally when you go to stool and you do not bleed, then we can safely assume that perhaps your stools are hard--in other words you get constipation and that it is this constipated, hard stools that are the cause of the aching anus. You must understand that hard stools are the leading cause of a dozen or so conditions that can ache your anus; especially if associated with stooling. Other conditions are a)Cuts in the skin or tissues(we call these fissure-in-ano) of the anus --again; dry hard stools cause this, leading to b)infection and maybe c)a boil or d)an abscess. This may end up as  d)a "fistula-in-ano" when the pus from the abscess causes a track in the tissues as it tries to find its way out. e)Injury to the bum as well as e)Anal sex f)Pile or hemorrhoids especially when they are clotted and g)infected; h)STD's and proctalgia fugax,a self limiting condition common among teenagers as well as i)prolapse of the rectum; common among women who have delivered many babies -- ALL can also cause aching anus. It is only after you have seen a good doctor and he has listened to your full description of the problem, cross examined and physically looked you up can anyone say which of these causes you have. Before you see the doctor, these half a dozen measures will help you tremendously a)Sit on warm water at least twice a day --sitz bath it's called b) Drink lots of water--up to 10 glasses a day--2 each on waking and retiring and at each meal; c)Eat a good portion of one of these fruits/vegetables daily so as to get plenty of fibre into your gut which will automatically soften your stool--pawpaw, pineapple, garden eggs, water melon, cucumber, apples and golden melon-- d)Go to stool once nature calls--do not delay until it is unbearable; e)Get lots of exercise; f)-- and I call this "Dr Oluranti's Technical Knock Out"-- use some Vaseline or other lubricant on your finger to lubricate your anal canal before you stool and no matter how hard the stools, they will be easily and "greasily" slipped out of your system with great relief. Try these and give me feedback. See our website www.mediamedix.blogspot.com

I Removed My Baby

I Removed My Baby

Dear Doctor,

Sir, I will be very happy if you will be able to answer and publish my questions this next week. Please I need the answer urgently also that my mates out there can learn. I am a regular reader of your column every Thursday in Daily Sun till I had a problem which I will want you to help me with.I am a girl of 20 years old who just removed a baby; it is two weeks now and since then I have been bleeding but now it is not as heavy as the very first week and now it´s not even reddish like blood, it´s just brownish colour.In fact, I stopped putting pad and just wear my pant; when I am wet then I will go and change because, I see it as wasting of pad since the thing is not much. Two days after the removal of the baby, my breasts became swollen and sometimes it will be paining me and by that time water will be dropping from my breasts. This continued till Sunday last week when it stopped and my breast now became too soft and had come back to the normal size. My question now is,are there some foods and drugs that I need to take? If yes, please prescribe them for me. Secondly, since that time I noticed that from my navel down to my waist /abdomen; even my waist is paining me. I forgot to tell you at the beginning that I  gave birth to the 3 months and 14 days old baby, in fact, I was placed on drip. I took about seven  (7) bottles of drip. It was the eight (8) one which was on the 4th day that the baby came out with the placenta. Please doctor, if there is some precautions I have to take now before it is too late; please tell me and advice me on other things to do.

Dear Amanda,
Haba!!!You do not want to be removing babies at 20 years of age; do you? Babies only come when we have sex. Sex is best inside marriage. So, the age old advice remains, abstain if you do not want a baby;okay? But if you cannot abstain then,to be sure you do not get into unwanted pregnancy trouble again, you need to learn Fertility Awareness and Control. You will learn more about this at my blog www.mediamedix.blogspot.com.  If you cannot go to the blog and you want the gist here it is -- as a lady the length of your menstrual cycle (number of days) if divided by 3 (eg 28 days divided by 3) = 9.3 days. To get pregnant, have sex in the middle one-third days; to avoid pregnancy, never have sex in the 9 days in the middle one third. That's a rough rule but I will send my free report titled, "Fertility Awareness and Control" to anyone who asks for it by e mail. Now for your other concerns-- Every new mother bleeds for some time after birth and it is normal that the stuff coming out will first be blood red and later be less copious and change colour to brown. We call the stuff lochia. In the same manner, it is normal for your breasts to drip fluid and pain you -- after all if you had not removed the baby you are supposed to be breastfeeding the baby. It is the breast milk which your breast produced in response to the baby's presence that caused your breast discomfort. The pain in your pelvis (from navel down to waist) is best evaluated by a competent doctor/gynecologist. It is possible you contacted Pelvic Inflammatory Disease ( PID) in a mild form. It would need expert treatment so that it does not  block your tubes and make you unable to get pregnant in future. 8 "drips" show that the baby you removed was unripe to come out and you really had to force it to come out. As to the age of the baby, it is usually preferred that a baby be removed at an earlier age (than the 15 weeks in your baby's case) when the process of removal is much easier.
In summary, please learn Fertility and Awareness Control (you can send me an e mail requesting for it or just go to the blog and read it) and practice it. It will save you from unwanted pregnancy
