Thursday, January 7th, 2010

The effects of smoking in pregnancy can cause reproductive problems but can cause problems even before she becomes pregnant, making conception difficult. It’s a good idea to stop smoking before you become pregnant, because cigarettes have toxins, and these can hinder egg maturation as well as ovulation rates. Eggs exposed to nicotine have a greater rate of chromosomal abnormalities.

Micarriages, underweight babies or premature labour are some of the things that can go wrong with women who smoke.

Effects of smoking in pregnancy don’t only apply to women because if men smoke, the nicotine can certainly affect the quality of his sperm.If you want to make conception easier and enjoy a healthy pregnancy, making some lifestyle changes can make all the difference. Stop smoking and start to replace the vitamins and nutrients that smoking removes. Pregassist will help to get your body in tip top condition so that pregnancy can happen easily.

Urinary tract infection – natural therapies good alternative to antibiotics .

Thursday, January 7th, 2010

The urinary tract is the body’s filtering system for removing liquid waste and having a urinary tract infection or bladder infection gives one a strong urge to urinate, and when you do urinate, it is accompanies by a burning pain. Only a small amount of urine is released and the urge to wee again starts immediately. Being pregnant makes you more susceptible to urinary tract infections of all kinds, and even though most are not serious, it can be a  painful nuisance.

Most women will experience a urinary tract infeciton at least once in their lifetime with many women having several during their lifetime. Fortunately UTI can be easily treated with antibiotics, but when you are trying to fall pregnant you want to avoid having to take  antibiotics because they can cause an imbalance in the normal bacteria in the urethra and vagina.

Natural therapies are a good alternative to antibiotics …ask the experts at Pregassist…. their products with the likes of Black Cohosh, Chaste Tree Berry Powder and other ingredients will change the pH of urine and stimulate the immune system.
