5. CONSECUENCIAS CLINICAS DE LA ANOVULACION

   Extractions: EVALUACION CLINICA La paciente generalmente se presenta con algún trastorno del ciclo. Si hay amenorrea se inicia el estudio indicado de acuerdo a las pautas expuestas en el capítulo correspondiente. Si se sospecha que el problema anovulatorio es de un tiempo largo de evolución, siempre se recomienda practicar una biopsia de endometrio con el fin de descartar la hiperplasia. Si no hay signos de androgenización como hirsutismo o virilismo, no es necesario medir los niveles séricos de andrógenos. Aunque solo un pequeño porcentaje de las pacientes con síndrome de anovulación crónica tienen hiperprolactinemia o hipotiroidismo, se considera que estas son entidades que merecen un tratamiento específico, por lo cual siempre se recomienda como parte de la evaluación inicial solicitar niveles séricos de Prolactina y TSH. El manejo depende de lo que se detecte en cada paciente. En aquellas mujeres que han consultado por infertilidad se utilizan los esquemas corrientes de inducción de ovulación. Se ha postulado que en ellas hay un riesgo incrementado de aborto espontáneo, posiblemente por aumento en los niveles de LH, que alterarían el microambiente ovárico óptimo. Por lo tanto, en estas pacientes está indicado, cuando es posible, hacer antes de la inducción de ovulación una supresión total del eje hipotálamo - hipofisiario con análogos de GnRH. Si después de tres ciclos no se ha logrado una adecuada respuesta folicular con el clomifeno, puede tener alguna utilidad el bloqueo de la producción suprarrenal de andrógenos; esto se logra con dosis bajas de corticoides, como 0.5 mg diarios de dexametasona o 5 mg de prednsisona.

    Extractions: Low Carbohydrate Fad Diets and Syndrome X Jeannette Chaitow Introduction: Low carbohydrate diets, also known as ketogenic diets, have become very popular. The most well known low carbohydrate diet is the Atkins’ Diet. Other low carbohydrate diet books include Sugar Busters, Protein Power, The Zone, and The Carbohydrate Addicts (14). The basic premise of the low carbohydrate diet is to restrict carbohydrate to the point where ketosis occurs (12). Ketosis is defined as “the abnormal accumulation of ketones in the body as a result of a deficiency or inadequate utilization of carbohydrates. Fatty acids are metabolized instead, and the end products, ketones, begin to accumulate. Untreated, ketosis may progress to ketoacidosis, coma, and death. (1). These books blame insulin resistance or Syndrome X for weight gain and obesity. However, it must be noted that the author of Syndrome X, Dr, Gerald Reaven, feels authors of popular diet books have misinterpreted his work (17). This paper will discuss Syndrome X, associated risks of low carbohydrate or ketogenic diets, and several low carbohydrate fad diets. There is very little scientific evidence or studies on any of these diets.

    Extractions: Hi Jean- Sorry to hear that your doctor didn't do the insulin test either. I think that we are both going through the same thing. I've been doing a lot of research too and I've concluded (although I may not be correct) that I have too much insulin and it is keeping my blood sugar from going as high as it should. My body then senses that I need more "fuel", so more insulin is secreated and I feel spacey until I eat something again. I read the Heller's CAD book and what they describe makes so much sense!!! I've been loosly following the Heller's plan. I eat only protein in the morning (eggs, canadian bacon, cheese, etc. - I'm trying to stay away from bacon and sausage because of all the fat), a salad and the "middle" of a sandwich or stir fry or something along those lines for lunch, and whatever I want for supper - but a lot more veggies than I used to. I'm also having healthy snacks if I start to feel lightheaded between meals (veggies, apple w/ peanut butter, cheese, etc.).

    Extractions: Finally, someone has come up with an explanation for why so many people are having heart attacks despite normal cholesterol and other standard risk factors. Several years ago I had a heart attack, even though my cholesterol was only 170 and I was following my doctors diet to the letter. My doctor didnt know that the diet he was telling me to eat the same diet recommended by all the heart experts is actually dangerous for people with Syndrome X. I did some research, found out about Dr. Reaven and his work on Syndrome X, showed the materials to my doctor and we changed my diet around. Soon after, my blood test results started changing. The same risk factors that refused to budge when I was on the so-called "healthy heart" diet now fell into place. Dr. Reavens discovery of Syndrome X saved my life. Now that hes written a book on Syndrome X, hell probably save millions more.

17. Director's Corner
    The Director's Corner January 2002 NOVEMBER 27TH GENERAL HMF MEETING REVIEW BEING AT PEACE IN A NON-PEACEFUL WORLD  
    http://www.healthmedicine.org/documents/dircor.html
    
    Extractions: The Director's Corner - January 2002 NOVEMBER 27 TH GENERAL HMF MEETING REVIEW “BEING AT PEACE IN A NON-PEACEFUL WORLD” Janet Childs , co-founder of The Centre for Living With Dying, began the discussion stating that America has been thrown into a major grief process by “911.” It’s tapping into our “backpack of grief” of all losses and traumas we have experienced throughout our lives—into our eternal memory, or that timelessness that brings all of our grief to present time. Consequently, we have paid a dear price for this—the natural grief process distracts us from living our daily lives. We have not only been unable to function as well, but are also experiencing a great deal of self-judgment. The healing process begins internally, within each of us, and is supported by adopting a gentle and peaceful attitude with ourselves. We cannot deal with our grief until we honor it, and acknowledge how we’ve been impacted by it. Unless we express our grief it becomes heavier and more painful. Through expression—spoken words, writing, drawing, movement exercise, or touching—we can move it from the inside to the outside, allowing it to flow through us rather than stagnate within. The next step is to take positive action—where we transform the pain of what we’ve gone through into something healing.
