About a million women in the USA have a tubal ligation every year and about 1% of these patients seek reversal at some point. Younger women tend to regret their ligation more often (up to 20% of those who had a ligation in their 20s), as well as those who are in new relationships. Although […]
LH (Lutinizing Hormone) is the pituitary hormone that induces ovulation in the midcycle. This hormone is released from the brain into the circulation causing release of the egg 34-36 hours later. The hormone can also be identified in the urine and ovulation usually follows 12-24 hours later, with most patients ovulating by 48 hours after […]
Your body goes through a great deal of hormonal, physiological, and physical changes during pregnancy.

Thyroid disease can have significant effects on a woman’s reproductive health and screening for women presenting with fertility problems and recurrent early pregnancy loss should be considered, suggests a new review published in The Obstetrician & Gynaecologist (TOG). The review examines the effect of thyroid disorders on reproductive health and reviews the current evidence on […]
