Women's Health

Good evening, Madam Instructor, fellow students and guests.

Tonight I will be discussing my passion.

Women's health.

Beauty is being the best possible version of yourself on

the inside and out.

As women, it has become the norm to be critiqued

and criticized by our spouse, significant other close relatives and

friends and even strangers in the streets.

We are categorized into groups by our outside facial and

bodily features.

However, that doesn't even begin to unveil what many of

us deal with personally that we never even speak of.

Many young girls and teenagers deal with hormonal changes and

are not aware of what's actually going on, which leads

to an uneducated young woman, because she has no one

to speak to about her issues leading up to adulthood,

finding out you are dealing with illnesses and diseases that

you could have prevented and or caught early if you

just had the knowledge about it all at the end

of this speech, I hope to inform you more on

what you may or may not already be aware of.

This may stimulate those many questions you have never decided

to act your O B g y n this current

photo here.

It just shows you a timeline from the beginning up

into age 70 and on the lateral side of it,

it shows you the level of female hormone hormone.

Excuse me secretion.

So you can see around the age of 10.

You're menarche the beginning of your menstrual leading up until

between 10 and 20 Is your adolescence puberty age?

And that comes with school.

You may deal with even disorders.

Anxiety, um, sexual harassment, sexual violence, administration related depression moving

on all the way down to 70 when you get

into that post climatic elderly age where you may started

experiencing dementia, um, decreased bone mass, osteoporosis, things of that

sort that I will discuss in this video as well.

Childbearing age women, your men, arc, is the occurrence of

the first menstrual period in the Female Adolescents administration is

the monthly shedding of the uterine lining that occurs when

fertilization doesn't occur after the females ovulation period ends.

The average age of menarche is 12 but varies depending

on ethnic and racial background.

Mina Raja is the medical term for menstrual periods with

abnormally heavy or prolonged bleeding.

Many different causes, such as uterine fibroids, pile ups and

ovarian cysts are also causes of Mina Raja hormonal problems

or bleeding disorders.

Also one of those hormonal problems or bleeding disorders.

That of young Woman may deal with his PCOS, which

stands for polycystic ovarian syndrome and is called by an

imbalance of reproductive hormones, which creates issues in the ovaries

with PCOS.

A female's egg may not develop as it should, or

it may not be released during ovulation, as it should.

PCOs causes missed an irregular periods.

Many females with PCOS report having between 3 to 5

periods per year, which leads to infertility in the development

of cysts.

As you can see here, this is considered a healthy

ovary, and this is a polycystic ovary.

If you have PCOS, you may or may not have

this as well.

All of these cyst on your ovaries, it's it.

It is a possibility.

Endometriosis deals with also dismissed area, which is the medical

term for pain associated with minstrel Excuse me, administration.

There are two different types.

Primary and secondary.

Primary is just a cause of pain, which is natural

with your period.

Secondary is a cause of this issue here.

Endometriosis, which is the presence of endometrial tissue outside the

uterine cavity and commonly associated with chronic pelvic pain and

infertility. As you can see here, these lesions here, here,

here and here and all over.

As you can see, our endometriosis, which is the lining

of the uterus, is usually supposed to be in this

area grows on the outside of the uterus.

This here shows you like a quote unquote female fertility

timeline shows you between the ages of 18 and 45.

Plus after the age of 35 right here you are

considered a m A, which is advanced maternal age.

You can still get pregnant around this time, but people

do say that it's a little harder and also your

chances of having a baby with a chromosome.

Nhial difference will definitely in high.

Excuse me, increase in heighten around this age here, mhm

peri menopausal women means around menopause and refers to the

time period in which your body makes the natural transition

to menopause.

There is no medial age for menopause because it all

differs depending on ethical and genetic backgrounds.

Symptoms include irregular periods either lengthen or shorten lighter or

heavier, and you may even skip your menses a couple

of months.

Hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes starting to feel a

little more irritable and noticeably more depressed.

These are all symptoms of becoming perimenopausal menopausal yellow bead.

Oh starts to decrease as well, due to estrogen levels

diminishing. You start noticing your vaginal area, losing more lubrication

that it's making start dealing with urinary issues, including stress,

incontinence and retention.

After the age of 21 one of the most important

testing that we do get is called a Pap smear.

It is important because this is the Onley way we

can ever be diagnosed with cervical cancer.

There is no other tests besides a Pap smear.

It is important to get your annual exam with your

O B G y n like it says annually.

So that would be every year at the age of

40 you start the torture of mammograms, which is an

X ray picture of both breasts.

They're considered screening exams if they're being performed, all women

with no signs or symptoms of breast cancer at the

age of 60 between 60 and 65 or when you

hit menopause.

Bone density scans are necessary to measure the calcium and

other minerals of your balls.

It helps show the strength and thickness of your bulbs

in orderto walk in menopause in the best shape ever.

I encourage all my females to include calcium in their

diets for their bones and eating a healthier diet and

drinking plenty ease.

Excuse me.

Plenty of fluids, such as water to keep the muscles

hydrated. A woman is considered to be postmenopausal when she

has not had her mentees for an entire year.

Also, if you have went about 9 to 11 months

with no period and had light spotting one month, I

will contact your O B G y n and have

them check your hormonal levels.

Even though you are considered postmenopausal now, you should still

regularly see your O b G y n because there

has been many cases of cervical cancer in women 65

older than before.

Osteopenia is a condition that begins as you lose bone

mass and bones get weaker.

Osteoporosis is a condition in which the bones become brittle

and fragile from loss of tissue, typically as a result

of hormonal changes and deficiency of calcium or vitamin D.

Where there is a woman, there's magic.

Hopefully, after this presentation you have a little more insight

about the different stages that we go through as women.

It is important to always love ourselves on the outside

as well as the inside and never making it seem

as though if you do have thes hormonal differences.

Mincy differences that you are not completely different than the

person right sitting right next to you.

Because I as females, we all deal with some kind

of abnormality in ourselves that we may not be aware

of at the moment.

But it is there.

However, beauty is being is accepting.

Excuse me yourself, inside and out.
