Can You Trust Condoms? – HEALTHLIFESOURCE.COM

Condoms come in a variety of styles and colors. Some have a reservoir tip to catch semen while others – the so-called “ticklers” – have rubber projections which supposedly increase vaginal stimulation.

There are colorless, transpa­rent and brightly colored condoms. But all of them are used the same way. Before intercourse, the condom is rolled onto the erect penis to prevent sperm from entering the vagina.

How effective are condoms in preventing pregnancy? This thin rubber sheath is about 70 to 90 percent effective, depending on how it is used and the kind of condom you have. But accidents do happen. That’s because the condom may either break or slip off. As the editors of Consumer Guide’s “Family Health & Medical Guide” pointed out:

“Several problems may occur with the use of the condom. For example, tiny holes or tears may develop in the sheath, causing leakage of sperm. Also, when the penis is withdrawn from the vagina as intercourse is completed, the condom sometimes breaks or practically unrolls inside the vagina, releasing its contents.”

“How often do condoms tear or slip off during inter­course? Surprisingly, no one is sure. About 12 percent of condoms made in the United States and 21 percent of those made abroad fail the (Food and Drug Administration’s) periodic spot checks for defects. And in the very few studies of actual use, the condom either slipped or broke from four to 15 out of a hundred times during vaginal intercourse,” added Deborah Franklin in Health magazine.

Things were much worse in the past. In the 1930’s, prior to rigid standards set by the FDA, as many as three-fourths of all condoms in the market were found to be defective. When the FDA stepped into the picture by examining all kinds of condoms – both local and imported – these defects were minimized and manufacturers themselves started improving their stocks.

One test used by the FDA to check the condom’s quality and strength is the standard water test. In this test, a condom is filled with water and is examined for leaks or bulges which indicate thin spots that could break later.

“Since April 1987, (FDA) inspectors have shown up unannounced at condom factories to review records and sample condoms at random, checking for cracks, mold, dry or sticky rubber, and the like. Chiefly, but, the agents run a standard water test – filling condoms with about 10 ounces of water – to spot pinholes. If they find leaks in the equivalent of more than four per 1,000 condoms in a production run, that entire lot must be ruined – often tens of thousands of condoms or more. Imports are inspect­ed, too, at their port of entry,” according to the editors of Consumer Reports.

“The standard test involves the introduction of 300 milliliters (ml) of fluid, suspending the condom for one to three minutes, and testing for leaks. The average ejaculate (semen) is only 3 ml so 300 ml goes a long way in assuring that the condoms are strong enough,” added Dr. Michael Lim Tan, executive director of the Health Action Information Network, in Health Alert.

Alzheimers Disease – HEALTHLIFESOURCE.COM

Last Updated on Wednesday, 31 March 2010 11:49 Written by Natural Health Team Wednesday, 31 March 2010 11:49

Alzheimers disease robs you of intellectual and social abilities and interferes with regular life. About 4.5 million Americans have Alzheimers Disease. The disease usually affects seniors over the age of 65. As the population ages this number is expected to quadruple.

There is no cure for Alzheimers disease. There is progress being made by researchers to improve the quality of life for those who have Alzheimers. Drugs are being learned and studied which may lead to treatments of the disease.

If you have been a caretaker of a loved one with Alzheimers disease, or have a loved one suffering with it, you know that it takes patience and like to keep you and them going.

If you reckon a loved one may be showing early signs of Alzheimers Disease, what should you look for? One of the most prominent signs of Alzheimers Disease is forgetfulness. It starts out with occasional forgetting simple directions or recent events. It progressively gets worse until the patient may forget even family names and objects they see every day. They also may repeat things they’ve already told someone, and place objects down and forget where they placed them. On the other hand, they might place something away so they will remember where they place it, and place it in such an illogical place that no one can find it.

Early Alzheimers Disease patients have distress conducting conversation and finding the right words to say. They may have a hard time following conversations or expressing their feelings. Eventually their reading and writing ability will also be affected.

Abstract thinking is something else that these patients with Alzheimers disease have. They may suddenly be able to deal with numbers, especially in balancing the checkbook. Disorientation causes them to lose track of time, and it is simpler for them to get lost. They may feel they are in unfamiliar surroundings even if they are home.

They have distress with everyday problems, such as knowing that food has been on the stove too long. Patients with Alzheimers disease eventually have problems dealing with plotting, judgment, and choice-making. Familiar tasks become a struggle, even the basic activities like dressing or remembering to bathe.

One of the most distressing symptoms of Alzheimers disease is the personality changes that affect them. It is not uncommon for a patient with Alzheimers disease to have extreme mood swings and often accompanied by depression. They may start distrusting those around them, be increasingly stubborn, and withdraw from family and friends. As their Alzheimers disease get progressively worse, they may become defiant, stubborn, aggressive, and take part in inappropriate behavior.

One report tells of a wonderful woman, whom was a excellent mother, grandmother, and fantastic-grandmother that had been afflicted with Alzheimers disease. When her family was forced to place her in a nursing home due to the Alzheimers disease, she became aggressive to other patients and started using language she never would have dreamed of using before she fell victim to Alzheimers disease. The staff had a hard time in restraining her in the nursing home. They found she was sneaking in to other patient’s rooms, uncovering them, and leaving them. This was so unlike the mother and grandmother they knew before the affliction of Alzheimers disease, they had a hard time even visiting. Most of the time, she wouldn’t remember her daughter being there that morning. Finally, her family place an erasable board in her room so her visitors could write their name and the date they visited allowing the family to know who was there and when.

Unfortunately, families don’t often recognize the onset of Alzheimers disease because it starts out so slow. There usually are no sudden changes in the personality to alert family members there is a problem. As the symptoms gradually get worse, or they realize memory is fleeting for their loved one, they may not realize until the patient is far into the advanced stages of Alzheimers disease.

How Alzheimers disease progresses and what the average survival rate will be depends on the individual. The average survival rate is eight years. Some live fewer years, and some could live up to 20 years with the disease. People with Alzheimers disease eventually will no longer be able to take care of themselves. This leaves loved ones with the burden of deciding whether to place the patient in a long-term care facility or try to take care of them at home. It’s a hard choice and everyone must realize that it takes considerable attention, like, and patience to deal with the problems that come with Alzheimers disease.
