Hell Everyone,

My name is Necie Lee Edwards and I am a passionate wellness activist with an interest in Women's Health. Recently, I got involved with adolescent teen moms and dads. I am looking for materials on dealing with this population on how best to educate them about nutrition.

Hi ladies,

We're in need of your expertise and experience.

Finally_a_Mom posted a really good question in the Infertility Group - and I thought you ladies might be able to help.

This question is: Has anyone used birth control pills to shrink cysts on the ovaries? The question is specifically interested in cysts caused by fertility drugs, but any information pertaining to birth control and cysts would be helpful. Especially whether they shrunk or went away completely.

To assist with this discussion click here.

Many thanks - and appreciation!
Vanessa

Hi everyone

It is my experience that most women put PMS down to bad genes, and feel that there is nothing they can do about it; that this is just simply "how they are". But if you think like this you will continue to suffer.



Of course hormones and genes do have something to do with it, but so does your mind. Research has shown that women can learn to effectively reduce and alleviate their symptoms by using the power of their minds - by using relaxation techniques and hypnotic suggestion. And this makes sense; your mind and body are intrinsically linked, and so as you learn to approach your symptoms in a holistic manner you will take control, relieve your symptoms and feel a whole lot better than before.



When you relax deeply, endorphins are released throughout your body. These are natural opiates, natural pain killers, which produce a fantastci feel good factor, a feeling of comfort.



There is a link between low endorphin levels and PMS symptoms. It follows (and research has shown this) that to learn to relax deeply and produce endorphins at a greater rate will naturally relieve the symptoms of PMS.


You can get a free hypnosis relaxation download from http://www.RoseannaLeaton.com to see what hypnosis does for you. Theres also an endorphin generator download in the health section of the website.

Hope this helps to banish that pain and discomfort!
