Every month, your uterous has to discard it&#8217;s lining. Ideally, with perfect timing, your hypothalamus shoots out Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). Your pituitary feels the tickle of GnRH and produces Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing hormone (LH). The bigger party coaxes your ovaries to produce estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone completing the secret handshake that authorizes your uterine lining to reboot.</p>
<p>As you can see, a lot of things can go wrong here.</p>
<p>Everything from stress (which releases cortisol, GH and norepinephrine (more hormones)), to carbs, to delicious sugar, to lack of sleep, to polution, to fatigue, to poor nutrition, and anything else you can throw in, directly damages the precision of your menstrual cycle. And we all know what that feels like. We call it PMS but the &#8220;M&#8221; probably should stand for &#8220;menace.&#8221;</p>
<p>The &#8220;Journal of Reproductive Medicine,&#8221; says that women who report symptoms of PMS, consume three times the amount of sugar as women who do not report symptoms.</p>
<p><span class="bigger"></p>
<blockquote class="bigger"><p>And you women can do it</p></blockquote>
<p></span><br />
Your PMS can commonly get bad enough to destroy your work relationships and even your love life. We&#8217;ve all seen this happen to someone we know.</p>
<p>Finally, after decades of compromising between maintaining a precision menstrual hormonal balance vs. living a productive yet stressful life in society laced with Cosmotinis, your monthly cycle pauses. But menopause doesn&#8217;t happen without a fight. And it fights you tooth and nail.</p>
<p>Women who call in to JBNI.us Naturaceuticals report symptoms so severe that they include the desire to commit suicide, severe depression, extreme anger, cold sweats and hot flashes so hot that they&#8217;ve had to change their sheets and take showers in the middle of the night, crushing migraines and worse yet, the inability to go to the bathroom for days.</p>
<p><span class="bigger"></p>
<blockquote class="bigger"><p>cold sweats and hot flashes so hot that they&#8217;ve had to change their sheets and take showers in the middle of the night</p></blockquote>
<p></span><br />
Until recently, one of the most common doctor recommended response to menopausal symptoms was &#8220;hormone replacement therapy or HRT.&#8221; Logical isn&#8217;t it? Your period stops and the agony of menopause starts since your estrogen and progesterone hormone levels drop after about 40 years of PMSing.</p>
<p>But now, doctors are less eager to recommend hormone replacement therapy. After decades of recommendations and observation, it is now clear that HRT presents several side-effects</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<ul><strong>1. Increased risk of endometrial cancer<br />
2. Slightly higher risk of breast cancer<br />
3. Blood clots leading to:<br />
4. Somewhat higher risk of stroke and heart attack<br />
5. Increased risk of gallbladder disease<br />
We could go on but we&#8217;re not in the business of depressing you</strong></ul>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>So what do we recommend you do? We recommend that you listen to <a href="http://herbholist.posterous.com/?sort=&amp;search=menopause">women who have 100% totally eliminated their PMS and Menopause aggravation</a>. They swear by &#8220;Cycalign&#8221; for PMS and &#8220;Fountin&#8221; for menopause.</p>

<span><br />
<blockquote>&#8230;Their findings are not conclusive but may signify a need for additional attention to patients&#8217; cardiovascular risk factors</p></blockquote>
<p></span><br />
&#8220;The Women&#8217;s Health Initiative (WHI) of the National Institutes of Health followed more than 160,000 postmenopausal U.S. women for up to 15 years, examining risk factors for and potential preventive measures against cardiovascular disease, cancer and osteoporosis. For the current study, the research team began with data from more than 136,000 WHI participants who were not taking antidepressant drugs when they entered the study. At their first follow-up visit, either one or three years after study entry, about 5,500 of those women reported currently taking an antidepressant. The research team compared that group&#8217;s subsequent history of cardiovascular disease with that of participants who had not started taking antidepressants.&#8221; </p>
<p>&#8220;Women participating in the Women&#8217;s Health Initiative study who reported taking an antidepressant drug had a small but statistically significant increase in the risk of stroke and of death compared with participants not taking antidepressants. The authors of a report in the December 14 Archives of Internal Medicine note that their findings are not conclusive but may signify a need for additional attention to patients&#8217; cardiovascular risk factors.&#8221; <a href="http://twitter.com/HarvardResearch/statuses/6735630365">Via Harvard Research</a></p>

Like any medical problem, proper diagnosis is half the battle. So assuming you&#8217;ve already tried drinking more water and turning off the loud music, this series will help you identify and treat your headaches, while teaching you everything you&#8217;ve ever needed to know about the pain in your head that becomes a pain in the ass.</p>
<p><strong>Hollywood Superstar: The Migraine</strong><br />
One question we get all the time is, “How can I tell if my headache is a migraine?” In short, know that while a headache is just pain, a migraine is a surround sound, full Technicolor experience. Like any good story, a migraine has a beginning, middle and end. It changes and evolves, and is usually followed by an awful sequel.</p>
<p>The clearest indicator of a migraine is aura, a term given for the way a migraine messes with your senses. Bright flashing dots, wavy or jagged lines, blind spots, trouble tasting or smelling, and other strange and scary neurological effects are attributed to the constricting and dilating blood vessels that define a migraine. Many people report the aura happening up to thirty minutes before the onset of actual pain.</p>
<p>Next comes the head pain, usually starting as a dull, throbbing feeling that sometimes moves onto being sharp and piercing.<br />
<span><br />
<blockquote>More than 70% of migraine sufferers are women</p></blockquote>
<p></span><br />
What really brings it home is the nausea and vomiting, fatigue, and sensitivity to light, sound, and smells.</p>
<p>Finally, while people can go through life only experiencing the occasional tension or sinus headache, a migraine is almost guaranteed to return as seldom as twice a year or as often as four times a week.</p>
<p>More than 70% of migraine sufferers are women, and there is little conclusive evidence on how best to treat them. Many report than they simply had to trust in each new and different treatment option, until they found the right one for them.</p>

A few more things you didn&#8217;t know you didn&#8217;t know about your monthly euphemism:</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">1) By the time you enter puberty, you have between 300,000 and 500,000 eggs. Only between 400 and 500 will ripen into mature eggs during your life.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">2) The Jewish custom of a mother slapping her daughter at the onset of her first period is a sort of ancient abstinence only education. The idea is to slap some sense into the girl, reminding her not to disgrace the family by getting pregnant out of wedlock.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">3) In the Biblical creation story, the name Adam is derived from &#8220;adamah,&#8221; which can be translated as &#8220;bloody loam.&#8221;</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">4) LOX Theatrical Tampons were a brand sold in the United States during the 1930&#8217;s. They were designed specifically for actresses as a form of menstrual protection that wouldn&#8217;t fall out during stage performances (because it “LOX” in place). Women in the theater profession were among the first in both the US and Europe to use tampons and pads rather than just bleeding into their underclothes.</p>
<p><span class="big"><br />
<blockquote class="big">In the Biblical creation story, the name Adam is derived from &#8220;adamah,&#8221; which can be translated as &#8220;bloody loam.&#8221; o_O</p></blockquote>
<p></span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">5) Strippers who are <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcaLRN8RBgY&#038;feature=youtube_gdata">ovulating</a> average $70 in tips per hour; those who are menstruating make $35; those who are not ovulating or <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcaLRN8RBgY&#038;feature=youtube_gdata">menstruating</a> make $50. There is little to no change for strippers who are on the pill, since it affectively stops ovulation all together.</p>
<p><span><br />
<blockquote>Strippers who are ovulating average $70 in tips per hour; those who are menstruating make $35</p></blockquote>
<p></span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">You could take them off the pill of course, but they we&#8217;d need a study on what kind of tips pregnant strippers make. Reference: <a href="http://www.mum.org/">http://www.mum.org/</a></p>
