Example For Young Parents Sexual

The teenagers who can discuss openly about sexuality issues with their parents, they are more attuned to the risks and consequences of sexually transmitted diseases.
 
The teens were more parents than selecting the media or friends as a role model to have a healthy sexual behavior. This is especially true in adolescents who come from families who openly discuss issues of sexuality.
Similarly, according to a survey conducted in Canada to 1100 teenage mothers who have children and 1,200 adolescents aged 14-17 years. 45 percent of teens make known to their parents as role models and 32 percent would prefer to imitate the behavior of his friend. Teens who make celebrities as role models only 15 percent.
 
"Good communication within the family, including the issue of sexual health is very influential on responsible sexual behavior," said Dr.Jean-Yves Frappier, researchers from the University of Montreal, who conducted this survey.
 
In contrast to the answers of adolescents, it turns out nearly 78 percent of the mothers felt their children make friends as role models in matters of sex. The mothers also answered the fathers are less willing to be involved in educating children on sexual health issues.
 
"Parents underestimate their role much in the lives of their children," said Frappier. In addition to opening the dialog that opens, parents are also advised to give an example of a healthy sexual behavior and responsibility.

Understanding Menstruation

Picture of the normal menstrual cycle is happening once a month, the range normally once every 21-40 days, 1-10 days duration, and amount of blood that came out 1-6 pads a day. "It's normal menstrual criteria. Picture of a normal menstrual blood is no mucus tissues, because the uterine wall entirely, "said dr. Goddess Prabarini, Sp.OG, obstetrics and gynecology specialists from UB Women and Children Hospital.
Menstrual bleeding is different with the appearance of blood. Due to bleeding red blood flowed fresh, as if a knife cut. While menstrual blood will drip, there are clumps of thick mucus, and the color is maroon. To test, use a tissue to wipe and be seen, there are lumps or not. "The amount of blood that comes out should also be considered. Normal size is 1-6 pads or 35-50 cc per cycle. More or less than that means is not normal, "said Dewi.
Age of menarche
Normal menstrual cycles for at least 15 days. If you have 15 days was bleeding again, means not normal. Or conversely, not 2-3 months period, means not normal. Age of menarche or the beginning of a normal menstrual age is the age of puberty, most young people aged 8-10 years and 17-18 years at the latest. Two or three years before normal menstruation, usually already there are signs such as pubic hair and fine hair began to appear, the breasts begin to grow. After that, just a woman's menstrual period.
The first two to three years of menarche, menstruation may be irregular. But, if your period is more than 15 days continuously, must be treated. Because menstrual blood can cause infection. Blood coming out continuously in the vagina will allow germs in this area gets the food supply, so that it can cause infection.
There are several factors that influence age of menarche, including weight and height, junk food that makes kids grow up faster, and has been the achievement of age (usually 8-10 years) or body weight 40 kg. "If this has been achieved and the fat content is sufficient to produce the hormone estrogen, so can your period," explained Dewi.
The second factor is heredity. For example, if the mother had menarche at a relatively young age, then the child could be getting your period at a relatively young age too, as well as menopause. Another factor that affects the child's knowledge about sex earlier. "The children now, right, was able to browse through the internet," he continued.
Menstrual Pain
There are several types of menstrual disorders, among other periods that are too short or too long (cycle), or blood coming out too little or too much (amount). "A little large number depending on the amount of menstrual blood loss from the uterine wall," explained Dewi.
Normally, the amount of blood loss during menstruation is 35-50 cc per one cycle. If the excess, could be due to hormonal imbalance. In women who are married, could be due to the use of an IUD makes the uterus enlarged, allowing blood that came out a lot. It could also be due to excessive wall thickening, or because myom or cysts. Meanwhile, if the amount of menstrual blood that came out less, could be due to anemia (lack of blood).
"But, the most experienced woman actually is a disorder of menstrual pain. In fact, normal menstruation should not hurt. When it hurts, yes, should be treated. When the pain, how pain? If prior to menstruation is usually due to premenstrual syndrome, "said Dewi.
Menstrual disorders also can be a symptom of certain diseases or disorders. The most immediate is the disruption of hormone imbalance (hormone imbalance). For example, too much estrogen. If menstrual blood is removed too much, then it automatically also drain excessive uterus, so sick. "If excessive hormones, uterine contractions were excessive, so long may be a cyst," said Dewi.
Menstruation Really?
Handling depends on the cause menstrual disorders. According to the Goddess, which must be ascertained is whether the blood was coming out of menstrual blood or not. Sometimes, patients said that the blood is menstrual blood out, but it was not. "It could be bloody vaginal discharge, wounds due to polyps, or sores in the vaginal wall. Thus, the cause should be diagnosed first, then treated, "he continued.
If a nuisance hormonal disorders (dysfunctional uterine bleeding / DUB), a doctor may regulate the menstrual cycle (cyclic) order basis. "If there are anatomical abnormalities, yes, repaired. For example there is a tumor, cyst, or myom. How big, need surgery or not, and so forth. "
No less important is the need of extra vaginal hygiene maintained at the time of menstruation. The principle of hygiene is clean and dry vagina. "Dry is very important, because when your period, it continued to wear pads. The vagina is like a long tube of 9 cm. If ditutupin would continue with pads moist, and can cause vaginal discharge due to the fungus, "said Goddard.
Hence, the pads should be routinely changed every 3-4 hours. When you finish your period, do not need to wear thick pads, the pads are thin enough alone. If menstruation is clean, no need to wear a panty liner, simply wearing underwear made from cotton are porous. "Use cleaners that contain antiseptics are also not allowed. We recommend using a cleanser with a pH balance, or simply use clean water flowing, "Dewi said.

Calculating and Determining the Fertile Period

To be pregnant, there should be a fertilized egg is ready. The existence of these eggs showed a woman's fertile period. But, how can we know the fertile period in order not to miss, so it can happen conception (fertilization)?

Want to pet a baby soon? Perform intercourse during the fertile period. Here, a variety of ways to calculate the fertile period.


"Fertile period can be known by counting of menstrual periods, changes in mucus, and changes in basal body temperature," explains dr. Lastiko Bramantyo, Sp.OGActually not too difficult to track it down yourself. Only requires precision. What is equally important, they want to wait in order to obtain more accurate results. At a minimum, the tracking is done several times in recent months.
Menstrual cycleTrack your fertile period can be done through a count of the menstrual cycle / menstruation. Fertile period will be very easily traced if we are always irregular menstruation every month. Cycles are normal, bright Lastiko, running between 28-30 days. There are also experts who believe, between 22-35 days. "Thus, the egg came out in mid-cycle, around day 14 to day 16 was calculated from the first day of menstruation," explained Lastiko.So, three days before the 14th day and 3 days after the day-to-16 is a time that allows for the egg to be fertilized. This calculation is based on the possibility that sperm cells can survive up to 72 hours before reaching the egg.


Normal cycle of 28 days, mid-cycle day 14 (28: 2). Means the fertile period, three days before the 14th day, ie day 11 (14-3) and three days after the 14th day, ie day 17 (14 +3). Thus, the fertile period lasts between day 11 to day 17 (7 days) of a woman's normal cycle.For example, we came in on December 1. Well, the fertile period is the date 11 (14-3) to 19 (16 +3) for the month.
At their irregular menstrual (cycle of less than 28 days), then the calculated fertile period of menstrual schedule to come. Generally, the egg will come out on 14 or 16 days before the next menstruation. For example, the estimated periods that will come on August 18. It is estimated that the egg will come out on December 2 and 4 August (18-14 days back = August 4, and 18-16 days back = August 2). Means the fertile period lasts between July 31 (August 2 - 3 days before) to 7 August (August 4 + 3 days after).


If the menstrual cycle was not regular, the cycle of data required at least 6 months to a year. Then calculated using the formula Ogino Knouss. Sought the shortest cycle and how many days how many days the longest cycle. Fertile period is determined based on the shortest cycle - 18, the longest cycle - 11.Example, the longest cycle of 40 days, the shortest cycle of 28 days. So, 40-11 = 29 and 28-18 = 10. Thus, estimates of the fertile period-10 days to be calculated from first menstruation until day-29. The fertile period is longer, but can not certainty that most closely predicted. This is due to the chaotic period that is difficult to know, exactly when the egg discharge estimates.A woman whose menstrual cycles are messed up you should see a doctor to find the cause and treatment. Thus, we know the fertile period.


SAP MUCUS CervicalFertile period also can be known through the examination of lymph mucus (mucus) mouth of the womb (cervix). This too we can do yourself. How, mucus from the cervix are checked every day.


In the fertile period changes that are spinbarkeit. Mucus pliable, not interrupted if held, and sticky like jelly.
If you want more for sure, this mucus can be examined expert on the object glass under a microscope. Mucus that occurs in the fertile period, would look shaped like a fern leaf.
 
MEASURE THE TEMPERATUREAnother way that can be taken is to measure basal body temperature. At ovulation, the egg is thrown from the mature sac. Next, place of origin of the egg before (corpus luteum) produces the hormone progesterone, which served up a network in the uterus to receive the fertilized egg cell. This resulted in the formation of progesterone rise in body temperature.


Perform measurement of body temperature on the morning after waking and before doing any activity, such as getting out of bed, the bathroom, eat, or drink. Do it every day at the same hour for three months. Use a thermometer that is inserted into the mouth or anus (not clamped in the armpit). Place the thermometer under the tongue for 5-6 minutes. Cover your mouth during the measurement takes place. Record the temperature changes that occur every day. Do not forget to connect the record today with the following days, thus forming a curve.


At the time of ovulation, it would seem, at first the graph down slightly from the calculation of the previous day. Then it will rise to the difference of at least two degrees Celsius. If it rises, the curve will remain on top, will not go down anymore.


Normal body temperature is usually 35.5 to 36 degrees Celsius. At the time of ovulation the temperature will go down first and up can reach 37-38 degrees and will not be back at 35 degrees. At the time of the change that's happened of fertility. Rise in body temperature this condition will continue to occur about 3-4 days.
Then will come down about 2 degrees for the production of progesterone declines, so body temperature declines. And finally back to normal body temperature, as before menstruation occurs.When the graph (note the temperature of the body) does not increase body temperature, could mean there is not fertile period in the absence of the corpus leteum that will produce progesterone. This also means it will not increase body temperature.


Conversely, if the rise in body temperature continues after the fertile period, the start of pregnancy. Because if the egg is successfully fertilized, the corpus leteum means will continue to produce the hormone progesterone. Thus, body temperature was still high.


Terms of determining the fertile period by measuring the body temperature is within 3 months, the body temperature is not in a state of fever, do not sleep near a very hot lamp, or with very cold air conditioning. "If the body temperature is chaotic, difficult to measure and check fails," said Lastiko.THROUGH ultrasound
Today, through a serial ultrasound examinations, can be known a woman's fertile period. You do this by seeing gland eggs, the development of the egg until the egg is cooked through and going out (ovulation). This method can be used by women who experience irregular menstrual cycles.With serial ultrasound examinations 2-3 days can be measured menstrual cycle, menstrual calendar, calendar and ovulation occur. "This development will continue to be monitored. From the start of the egg cell is formed until it disappeared." Well, if it has been obtained during ovulation, immediately do the recording on the fertile days to how it occurs, is calculated from the first day of menstruation. _ (Tabloidnova.com)

Eliminate Stress With the Power of Touch

The touch is the only one of the five senses are not affected by age. As we age, become less sharp sense of smell, sense of taste becomes difficult to distinguish, decreased auditory and visual needs help, but the sense of touch we never changed. In fact, the need to touch and be touched up.

Real human beings are born with the need for touch. If infants and children less touch, then they will grow into children who are less sensitive and difficult to empathize with others.

Not only humans, other mammals also liked the touch. There are many scientific studies on orangutans, chimpanzees, cats, or dogs that show a very different effect between the baby animals when they are touched and the many poor touch.

Diane Ackerman, author of A Natural History of the Senses, mentions of touch are the senses with its unique function and quality. The touch will affect the entire organism.

"Touch of five times more powerful than words and emotional contact. No other senses are easily generated than by touch," he said.

If a touch is felt not fun, there will be no species. "A mother would not touch their babies if they do not feel it was fun. If we do not like being touched and touching, maybe there will be no sex," said Saul Schanbergh.

A study also showed a touch of a loved spouse has doubled in strength against stress. Touch and created a sense of comfort also improves immunity and accelerates healing.

The more we age, making the need for a sense of being loved was increased. We need to learn to give a touch through hugs, kisses, or holding hands on the people we love because of the need for feeling loved and not alone is one way humans survive.

Makanan Dapat Mengurangi Penuaan

J ari jemari perempuan berusia 30 tahun itu mengusap lembut sudut matanya. Ia tampak cemas dengan kerutan yang mulai terlihat. Tak berapa lama, temannya menghampiri dan memberikan krim anti ageing yang (katanya) bisa menghilangkan kerutan di sekitar mata dalam hitungan bulan. Sontak, kecemasan memudar dari wajah perempuan tadi. Senyum pun mengembang di bibir kedua perempuan cantik tadi.  

Krim anti-ageing bertebaran di mana-mana, dari yang murah sampai yang mahal. Namun tahukah Anda, ageing tak semata-mata penampilan fisik belaka?

Ilustrasi di atas banyak ditemui pada iklan-iklan yang ditayangkan di televisi. Tak heran jika sedikit saja kerutan muncul, bisa diterjemahkan sebagai salah satu ciri penuaan. Efek yang lebih fatal dari terpaan iklan tadi adalah salah mengartikan ageing  dan anti-ageing . Misalnya dengan mengartikan bahwa ageing  semata-mata terjadi ketika penampilan luar mulai tak prima. Sehingga anti-ageing  hanya diperlukan untuk mempertahankan kecantikan luar.

Padahal menurut dr. Widya Murni, MARS. , dari Jakarta Anti- Ageing Center , definisi  anti-ageing  adalah berbagai upaya dan cara untuk mempertahankan optimalnya kesehatan. “Tetapi, orang lebih suka mengambil arti anti-ageing  sebagai penampilan fisik yang prima, di sini termasuk kecantikan,” ungkapnya seraya menambahkan bahwa penuaan mulai terjadi secara signifikan di usia 30 tahun.

Dipengaruhi Hormon
Bagaimana caranya, sih, agar kita bisa menjaga segala unsur kesehatan tetap optimal dan berkualitas? Widya menjelaskan ada banyak hal yang memengaruhi lamanya kualitas hidup seseorang. Misalnya faktor genetik, gaya hidup, kebiasaan berolahraga, pola makan, kebiasaan tidur, nutrisi berkualitas, dan penjagaan keseimbangan hormon.

“Ternyata jika semua faktor ini bisa dijaga dengan baik, akan memengaruhi atau memperpanjang kualitas hidup seseorang” ucapnya.
Namun, penuaan juga tak bisa lepas dari keseimbangan hormon. “Ketidakseimbangan hormon akan memengaruhi mulai dari penampilan fisik hingga mengurangi optimalisasi fungsi organ-organ dalam tubuh kita,” ujar praktisi pengobatan anti penuaan ini.

Pasalnya hormon adalah zat alami yang dihasilkan tubuh kita melalui beberapa kelenjar yang terletak pada otak. Di mana keseimbangannya akan menciptakan kualitas hidup yang optimal. Jadi, adanya suatu gangguan pada ketidakseimbangan hormon ini dipercaya akan menjadi suatu awal mula timbulnya penyakit penuaan yang akhirnya membawa kita pada kematian. More >

Menopause & Andropause

Menurut Widya, dengan perkembangan ilmu saat ini, ternyata penuaan bisa saja terjadi saat kita baru dilahirkan. Catatannya, bila memang terdapat gangguan-gangguan terhadap keseimbangan hormon. Malah, ketidakseimbangan hormon bisa terjadi saat kita masih berupa janin sehingga mau tak mau akan memengaruhi kelangsungan hidup janin setelah ia lahir.

Misalnya kekurangan hormon tiroid yang diderita seorang ibu saat kehamilannya, ternyata mempengaruhi kecerdasan seseorang, pertumbuhan tinggi badannya, bahkan memengaruhi pembawaan seseorang. Orang dengan hipotiroid menjadi lebih lambat, kurang lincah, kurang aktif, lama berpikir, dan lambat dalam melakukan segala aktivitas.

Jadi, jika dulu orang hanya mengenal menopause  sebagai titik awal menuju penuaan, ubahlah pikiran itu. Sebab pada masa perimenopause  (sekitar 10 tahun menjelang menopause), gangguan hormonal seseorang wanita mulai terjadi. Jadi sebaiknya seorang wanita mulai melakukan pemeriksaan laboratorium hormonalnya secara rutin. “Sebaiknya dimulai dari usia 35 tahun,” saran Widya.

Pada masa-mana ini, biasanya mulai banyak gangguan kesehatan yang berhubungan dengan hormonal itu terjadi, mulai dari tumbuhnya tumor/kista baik di payudara maupun ovarium, gangguan siklus haid, hingga berbagai keadaan lain yang ringan misalnya mudah sakit kepala, mudah depresi, mudah marah, hingga keadaan lainnya yang menjurus pada penyakit.
Lantas, bagaimana dengan andropause  yang dialami pria? Jika biasanya terjadi pada kisaran usia 35 tahun, bukan tak mungkin andropause  bisa terjadi lebih awal. Penyebabnya adalah jika individu mengalami obesitas, diabetes juvenile , atau depresi.

Sama halnya dengan menopause , andropause  sendiri mengacu pada kelainan hormon di mana hormon testosteron mulai menurun kadarnya. Bukan hanya seks yang terpengaruh, general wellness , kesehatan jantung dan pembuluh darah, bahkan optimalisasi otak, pun bisa terkena. Jadi seseorang dengan penurunan testosteron, selain menurun kebugarannya, juga kemampuan berpikir dan mengatasi stres mulai berkurang, karenanya mulai cenderung depresi. More >

Ciri-ciri Penuaan


Cara termudah untuk mengetahui apakah ageing  sudah mulai terjadi adalah jika Anda mulai menemukan tanda-tanda penuaan yang terlihat dari luar. Sebut saja pada wajah dan tubuh. 



Pada penampilan, penuaan ditandai dengan kulit wajah kendur, timbul keriput di daerah lipat senyum dan sekitar mata, tampak lingkaran hitam di bawah kelopak mata, timbulnya kantung mata, mengendurnya payudara, perut dan kulit di bagian lain tubuh, rambut mulai rontok baik pada laki-laki maupun wanita.



Dari segi penurunan fungsi, penuaan bisa dideteksi ketika penglihatan mulai berkurang (menggunakan kaca mata baca), vitalitas dan kebugaran berkurang, kemampuan jantung berkurang, semua organ mulai mengisut termasuk otak, hati, ginjal, pendengaran dan penciuman mulai berkurang, dan pembuluh darah mulai tersumbat sehingga orang mudah terkena penyakit jantung atau stroke.

Mengenal Makanan Antioksidan


Produk kecantikan seperti krim anti-ageing  ternyata hanya bisa menunda penuaan di luar. Padahal untuk menunda penuaan, Anda harus melakukannya inside out . Dan, ternyata pilihan makanan menjadi poin penting. “Pertama, sayuran dan buah. Kedua, sumber protein seperti ikan, sapi, dan ayam. Jika ayam kampung, maka ia adalah sumber kedua terbaik dari sisi protein,” jelas Widya.

Nah, bicara tentang buah, Widya menjelaskan bahwa berries  adalah sumber antioksidan terbaik, contohnya goji berries . “Antioksidan melawan radikal bebas yang menjadi penyebab utama penuaan.“ Omega-3 pada ikan juga menjadi salah satu pilihan. “Omega-3 pada ikan sangat istimewa karena mengandung zat antiinflamasi,” ucap Widya. Inflamasi sendiri adalah proses peradangan tanpa infeksi namun berakibat degeneratif yang berujung pada kematian.

Widya juga mengingatkan bahwa sumber-sumber makanan ini baiknya tidak terlalu diolah. “Semakin lama diolah, semakin kurang kualitas nutrisinya. Jadi, yang terbaik adalah makanan yang justru kurang diolah.“
Sementara makanan yang harus dihindari adalah karbohidrat seperti nasi, roti, dan gula. “Ganti dengan beras merah atau beras hitam, dan roti gandum,“ jelasnya. Begitupula dengan lemak. “Jika lemak buruk lebih banyak daripada lemak baik, bisa menyebabkan sakit jantung, kanker, dan penyakit lainnya.“ Sehingga Anda harus pintar-pintar menyeimbangkan lemak baik dan lemak buruk di dalam tubuh.


Apakah diet sehat ini tampak menakutkan? Tenang saja, pasalnya Widya memberikan tip berguna. “Lakukan pola makan sehat ini selama lima hari dalam seminggu. Sisa dua hari, Anda boleh memberi hiburan dengan memakan makanan yang Anda suka. Tapi, jangan berlebihan, ya!“


Nah, untuk melengkapi makanan-makanan sehat tadi, Anda juga sebaiknya mengonsumsi suplemen sebagai sumber nutrisi yang lain. “Karena makanan yang dikonsumsi bisa saja sudah terkena pupuk dan polusi.“ jelas Widya. Selain makanan, Widya juga menyarankan agar Anda rutin berolahraga, “Dua hingga tiga kali seminggu, maksimal 1 jam berolahraga. Tapi, jangan terlalu lama, karena akan memancing hormon kortisol yang membuat Anda stres dan lapar sehingga ingin makan lebih banyak lagi.“ More >

Sehat Sempurna, Luar Dalam

Hal lain yang juga harus diluruskan menurut Widya adalah bahwa sebenarnya cantiknya penampilan fisik merupakan cerminan dari optimalisasi sehatnya organ-organ di dalam tubuh. “Seseorang yang benar-benar sehat harus merupakan gabungan dari sehat fisik, mental, spiritual, sosial, maupun seksual,” tegasnya.

Meski demikian, ageing  ibaratnya adalah proses alami yang dialami siapapun tanpa kecuali. Pembeda proses yang diakhiri dengan kematian ini adalah bagaimana individu tersebut menjaga kesehatannya. “Kematian memang menjadi takdir akhir manusia, tetapi banyak manusia bisa melewati masa tuanya dengan sehat dan optimal. Tapi, banyak pula manusia lain mengalami penuaan dini sehingga kematian menjemputnya lebih awal.” urai Widya.

Widya mengingatkan agar wanita tidak hanya mementingkan penampilan luar dengan membeli perawatan ini itu. “Untuk good looking  di masa tua, harus punya good lifestyle.  Meski tua, tapi jika sehat, penampilan luar dan dalam akan lebih baik. “ Bagi Widya, menunda ageing  sebaiknya dilakoni dengan prinsip, “Seni mengatur nutrisi untuk membawa kepada keseimbangan hormon.“
