Oral Contraceptive Pills : Uses , Fuctions, Toxic Syndrommes..........

Oral cotraceptive pills are tablets that prevents conception. Perhaps its the most accepted contraceptive method in developing countries. Its principle function is to prevent conception and it doesn't give any protection against HIV and other STD's.

Oral Contraceptive Pills (OCP) are mainly two types.

1. Combiled OCP.

2. Progesteron OR Estrogen only Pills.

The mechanism of action of OCP is very simple. We know that female Menstrual cycle is devided into three phases.

1. Proliferative phase : Here estrogen is secreted by Ovary , which causes uterine endrometrial growth. After this phase there is sudden withdrwal af estrogen which causes Ovulation ( It is the fall of mature ovum into Peritoneal Cavity , which ultimately comes into the uterine tube and finally in uterus ).

2. Secretory phase : Here both Progesterone and Estrogen Causes more and more growth if endometrium and increase secretion by the uterine glands.

3. The Menstrual phase : Here sudden Withdrawal of Progesterone cause increase uterine contraction and shedding out of uterine endometrium with mature Ovum , which is visible as bleeding.

Now, OCP maintains a steady concentration of estrogen and progesterone into the body. Though , Ovulation occur due to sudden withdrawal of estrogen and OCP maintains estrogen level , so , there is no ovulation in the body. And , there is menstruation due to sudden withdrawal of progesterone , because , OCP intake should be stopped after 21 days. After this , the women will take 7 Iron tablets , and by this period there is sudden withdrwal of progesterone in the body. So , there is menstruation but without any ovulation.

Now, though there is no ovulation so , so Sperms inters into the vagina and uterus they can not find any mature ovum in female genital tract. So , there is no fertilization in the body. So, that women will not conceve .

By this way OCP maintains Contraception into the body.

Natural killer cell = The wonder creation , may be a mutation of WBC......

Natural killer cell From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Natural Killer cell ) Jump to: navigation , search Natural killer cells (or NK cells ) are a type of cytotoxic lymphocyte critical to the innate immune system . The role NK cells play is analogous to that of cytotoxic T cells in the vertebrate adaptive immune response . NK cells provide rapid responses to virally infected cells and respond to tumor formation, acting at around 3 days after infection . Typically immune cells detect MHC presented on infected cell surfaces, triggering cytokine release causing lysis or apoptosis . NK cells are unique, however, as they have the ability to recognize stressed cells in the absence of antibodies and MHC, allowing for a much faster immune reaction. They were named “natural killers” because of the initial notion that they do not require activation in order...

Exercise and proper sleep can reduce cancer risk

The latest research shows that proper exercise which should be regulated ( Like 30mins daily ) and proper sleep can reduce cancer risks. Because, daily exercise maintains body metabolism in a steady way and this prevents altered metabolism within our body. Also, proper sleep which should be at least 6 hours at night can reduces the altered endocrine and metabolic functions. So, proper sleep is very important. This all can reduce cancer risks upto 55%.

Treatment with stem cells, a new era in medical science.......

A new Era is coming forward in the treatment of human body. That is the STEM CELL THERAPY. If this treatment comes forward then medical science can treat many of those major diseases that are killing a large number of people each year. There are many diseases now that can't be cured by medical treatment, like Paralysis . If a patient has paralysis then doctors give him only some supportive treatment to improve his nerve supply on that affected area. But it can't give a redical cure. Because if a nerve cell damaged it cant be regenerated due to it is mane if stable cells. But, if a stem cell is replaced on that area then it can regenerate a nerve cell because stem cell can grow in the form of any cells or tissues, it has that capacity. Although a stem cell can grow in any form of a tissue or an organ. So, if we can place a stem cell in that affected hand or leg then this stem cell will grow under control and can regenerate into that original tissue. So, the patient will be cu...
