The Surprising Health Benefits of Sex

The perks of sex extend well beyond the bedroom...

 The benefits of sex range from slashing stress levels to lowering your risk of cancer and heart attacks. Sex facilitates bonding and feelings of intimacy with your partner. This kind of connectedness does more than make you feel warm and fuzzy, it actually reduces anxiety and boosts your overall health.

How would you like a stronger immune system or better sleep? Action between the sheets can help you get all of this and more.

1. Get Less Colds & Boost Your Immune System

More sex equals fewer sick days. That’s what the results of studies comparing sexually active people to those who are not sexually active say. Sex boosts your body’s ability to make protective antibodies against bacteria, viruses, and other germs that cause common illnesses. Of course, there’s more to cultivating a robust immune system than having a healthy sex life. Eating right, exercising, getting adequate sleep, and keeping up to date with vaccinations all contribute to having strong and healthy defenses against contagious illnesses.

2. Boost Your Libido

Believe it or not, the best antidote for a waning libido is to have sex! Having sex actually boosts desire. And if pain and vaginal dryness make it challenging for some women to have sex, sexual activity can help combat these problems, too. Sex boosts vaginal lubrication, blood flow to the vagina, and elasticity of the tissues, all of which make for better, more pleasurable sex and heightened libido.




3. Improve Women's Bladder Control

Urinary incontinence affects about 30% of women at some point in life. Having regular orgasms works a woman’s pelvic floor muscles, strengthening and toning them. Orgasms activate the same muscles that women use when doing Kegel exercises. Having stronger pelvic muscles means there’s less risk of accidents and urine leaks.

Sexually Transmitted Diseases in Men Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Trichomoniasis, HIV, Genital herpes, Genital warts,Hepatitis, Syphilis, Zika virus

Genital Warts (HPV)

It's not necessary to have sexual intercourse to get a sexually-transmitted disease (STD). The human papillomavirus (HPV) that causes genital warts can be transmitted by close skin-to-skin contact. Some types of HPVs cause cervical or anal cancer, and vaccines are available to protect against the most dangerous types. Other HPV types cause genital warts, which can be raised, flat, or cauliflower-shaped. HPV infection can occur in people who have no symptoms or visible warts.




HPV Symptoms

Genital warts can be big or small, flat or raised. They generally appear as a small bump or group of bumps in the genital region, and may be shaped like a cauliflower.

HPV Vaccine

A vaccine to prevent HPV is given in three shots. The second shot is given a month or two after the first shot. The third shot comes six months after the first shot.
The Centers for Disease Control recommends boys and girls be vaccinated at ages 11 or 12.
If they did not get the HPV vaccine as children, women can get the HPV vaccine through age 26. Men can get it through age 21. The CDC recommends HPV vaccination for men through age 26 for men who have sex with men or men with compromised immune systems, including HIV.

Pubic Lice (Crabs STD)

Pubic lice are colloquially known as "crabs." This name refers to the shape of these parasites, which is different from that of body lice. Pubic lice live in pubic hair and are spread among people during close contact. Pubic lice can be treated with over-the-counter lice-killing medications.


Pubic Lice (Crabs) Symptoms

Severe itching
Visible crawling lice or eggs attached to pubic hair




Scabies

Scabies is another disease caused by lice infestation. It is not necessarily an STD, since it can affect any area of the skin. However, it is often spread during sexual contact.


Scabies Symptoms

Extreme itching that is worse at night.
The skin appears to have a pimple-like rash, as shown in this photo.
Both the itching and rash may be across the body or limited to the wrist, elbow, armpit, webbing between fingers, nipple, penis, waist, belt-line or buttocks.
Tiny blisters (vesicles) and scales may appear.
Tiny burrows left by the tunneling of female scabies mites may be visible on the skin.
They appear as tiny raised and crooked grayish-white or skin-colored lines.
Prescription creams can cure a scabies infestation.

Gonorrhea (The Clap)

Gonorrhea is an easily transmissible STD that affects both men and women. It can cause infertility in men and women when untreated. There may be no early symptoms of the infection.


Gonorrhea Symptoms

Burning during urination
Vaginal or urethral discharge
Pelvic pain in women
Men may experience swelling of the testes and discharge from the penis
In some cases, the symptoms are mild and the condition is mistaken for a urinary tract infection or yeast infection.

Syphilis

Syphilis can be cured with antibiotics, but many people don't notice the early symptoms. It can lead to nerve damage, blindness, paralysis, and even death overtime if not treated.


Syphilis Symptoms

A round, firm, painless sore on the genitals or anal area (often the first sign)
A rash can develop later on the soles of the feet, palms, or other parts of the body
Enlarged lymph nodes
Fever
Fatigue
Hair loss
Late-stage syphilis can cause damage to many different organ systems

Symptoms and causes of Blood in urine -hematuria

Symptoms

Gross hematuria produces pink, red or cola-colored urine due to the presence of red blood cells. It takes little blood to produce red urine, and the bleeding usually isn't painful. Passing blood clots in your urine, however, can be painful.

Bloody urine often occurs without other signs or symptoms.

When to see a doctor

Make an appointment to see your doctor anytime you notice blood in your urine.

Some medications, such as the laxative Ex-lax, and certain foods, including beets, rhubarb and berries, can cause your urine to turn red. A change in urine color caused by drugs, food or exercise might go away within a few days.

Bloody urine looks different, but you might not be able to tell the difference. It's best to see your doctor anytime you see red-colored urine.

In hematuria, your kidneys — or other parts of your urinary tract — allow blood cells to leak into urine. Various problems can cause this leakage, including:

Causes

• Urinary tract infections. These occur when bacteria enter your body through the
  
  
  urethra and multiply in your bladder. Symptoms can include a persistent urge to urinate, pain and burning with urination, and extremely strong-smelling urine.
  
  For some people, especially older adults, the only sign of illness might be microscopic blood in the urine.
• Kidney infections (pyelonephritis). These can occur when bacteria enter your kidneys from your bloodstream or move from your ureters to your kidney(s). Signs and symptoms are often similar to bladder infections, though kidney infections are more likely to cause a fever and flank pain.
• A bladder or kidney stone. The minerals in concentrated urine sometimes form crystals on the walls of your kidneys or bladder. Over time, the crystals can become small, hard stones.
  The stones are generally painless, so you probably won't know you have them unless they cause a blockage or are being passed. Then there's usually no mistaking the symptoms — kidney stones, especially, can cause excruciating pain. Bladder or kidney stones can also cause both gross and microscopic bleeding.
• Enlarged prostate. The prostate gland — which is just below the bladder and surrounding the top part of the urethra — often enlarges as men approach middle age. It then compresses the urethra, partially blocking urine flow. Signs and symptoms of an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH) include difficulty urinating, an urgent or persistent need to urinate, and either visible or microscopic blood in the urine. Infection of the prostate (prostatitis) can cause the same signs and symptoms.
• Kidney disease. Microscopic urinary bleeding is a common symptom of glomerulonephritis, an inflammation of the kidneys' filtering system. Glomerulonephritis may be part of a systemic disease, such as diabetes, or it can occur on its own. Viral or strep infections, blood vessel diseases (vasculitis), and immune problems such as IgA nephropathy, which affects the small capillaries that filter blood in the kidneys (glomeruli), can trigger glomerulonephritis.
• Cancer. Visible urinary bleeding may be a sign of advanced kidney, bladder or prostate cancer. Unfortunately, you might not have signs or symptoms in the early stages, when these cancers are more treatable.
• Inherited disorders. Sickle cell anemia — a hereditary defect of hemoglobin in red blood cells — causes blood in urine, both visible and microscopic hematuria. So can Alport syndrome, which affects the filtering membranes in the glomeruli of the kidneys.
• Kidney injury. A blow or other injury to your kidneys from an accident or contact sports can cause visible blood in your urine.
• Medications. The anti-cancer drug cyclophosphamide and penicillin can cause urinary bleeding. Visible urinary blood sometimes occurs if you take an anticoagulant, such as aspirin and the blood thinner heparin, and you also have a condition that causes your bladder to bleed.
• Strenuous exercise. It's rare for strenuous exercise to lead to gross hematuria, and the cause is unknown. It may be linked to trauma to the bladder, dehydration or the breakdown of red blood cells that occurs with sustained aerobic exercise.
  Runners are most often affected, although anyone can develop visible urinary bleeding after an intense workout. If you see blood in your urine after exercise, don't assume it's from exercising. See your doctor.

Risk factors

Almost anyone — including children and teens — can have red blood cells in the urine. Factors that make this more likely include:

• Age. Many men older than 50 have occasional hematuria due to an enlarged prostate gland.
• A recent infection. Kidney inflammation after a viral or bacterial infection (post-infectious glomerulonephritis) is one of the leading causes of visible urinary blood in children.
• Family history. You might be more prone to urinary bleeding if you have a family history of kidney disease or kidney stones.
• Certain medications. Aspirin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory pain relievers and antibiotics such as penicillin are known to increase the risk of urinary bleeding.
• Strenuous exercise. Long-distance runners are especially prone to exercise-induced urinary bleeding. In fact, the condition is sometimes called jogger's hematuria. But anyone who works out strenuously can develop symptoms.

Nothing Is Certain But Death And Faxes Clinical Patient Access

Believe it or not, healthcare still communicates with paper.  Less than 10 percent of hospitals say they’ve been able to trade records entirely through their digital systems.  Shocking right?

Patient access has always been a problem, only 54 percent of all faxed patient referrals result in scheduled appointments due to the complexities of communication between health systems, or the lack thereof.
Ability to get a patient into an appointment is critical.  Not only for a patient’s health, but for the viability of a health system from a revenue standpoint, its reputation, the insurance company, and even medical device and pharma companies.  It is a tight knit ecosystem where if one chain in the communication link breaks down then all heck breaks lose and everyone suffers.

Great thing is there are finally platforms on the market that helps providers and staff route patients to the most appropriate high quality clinician in a community using SmartMATCH Technology from referralMD.  Best of all it can integrate into the any EMR systems on the market like Epic, Cerner, eClinicalWorks, and Allscripts while reducing referral leakage saving health systems 100’s of millions.

Diet and Urinary- 11 Foods to Avoid if You Have OAB

Diet and Urinary Incontinence Symptoms

Food or Drink	Effect on Incontinence	What to Do
Too much water or other fluid	Overfills the bladder.	Drink no more than 2 liters (about 2 quarts) of fluid a day. Drink most fluids during the daytime and limit fluids in the evening.
Too little fluid	Irritates the bladder. Promotes infection.	Drink at least 1 liter (about 1 quart) of fluid every day.
Alcoholic beverages	Causes dehydration by increasing the amount of urine. Interferes with brain’s signals to the bladder about when to release urine.	Cut down on or eliminate alcohol.
Caffeine-containing drinks and foods (such as coffee, tea, colas, or chocolate)	Stimulates the bladder. Act as diuretics, producing more urine.	Reduce or eliminate caffeine from your diet.
Acidic foods and drinks (such as citrus fruits, coffee, tea, and tomatoes)	Irritates the bladder.	Cut down or avoid these items.
Carbonated drinks	Irritates sensitive bladders.	Use sparingly or not at all.
Spicy foods	Irritates the bladder.	Avoid these foods.
Sugar, honey, and artificial sweeteners	Irritate the bladder.	Limit your use of these foods, if possible.

Medicine and Urinary Incontinence Symptoms

Medicine	Effect on Incontinence	What to Do
High blood pressure medicine (diuretic ''water pills," calcium channel blockers, and others)	Some increase urine output. Some relax the bladder, allowing urine to escape.	Let your doctor know that medication may be making incontinence worse. Ask your doctor if you can adjust the dose or switch to another medication to lower blood pressure. If you cannot switch or adjust medications, ask your doctor about ways to limit the incontinence symptoms.
Antidepressants, sedatives, and tranquilizers	Some hinder ability of the bladder to contract. Some decrease awareness of the need to urinate. (Note that some may improve incontinence symptoms.)	Ask your doctor about switching to another medication or to another type of therapy to treat depression.
Muscle relaxants	Relaxes bladder muscles.	Use only if necessary. Ask your doctor about steps to limit incontinence side effects.
Sleeping pills	Reduces awareness that the bladder is full.	Explore alternatives to sleeping pills, such as exercising regularly or starting a bedtime ritual.

11 Foods to Avoid if You Have OAB

Tomato products

According to the Cleveland Clinic, tomatoes are an acidic food that can potentially irritate your bladder and worsen OAB symptoms. People who are particularly sensitive should also cut out tomato products, such as:

    pasta
    pizza sauce
    ketchup
    salsa


Coffee and tea

The culprit in coffee and tea is caffeine. It can increase bladder activity and result in exacerbated symptoms, including higher urgency and frequency of urination, as well as increased incontinence. Reducing or eliminating caffeine intake or switching to decaffeinated varieties can decrease symptoms.

If you are particularly sensitive to caffeine, keep in mind that even decaf coffee and tea contains some caffeine.


Chocolate

Like coffee and tea, a serving of chocolate also contains some caffeine — about 1/4 the amount in a cup of coffee. Try white chocolate, which usually doesn’t have caffeine, or dark chocolate, which contains more cocoa and might satisfy your craving with a smaller amount.



Oranges, limes, and lemons

Like tomatoes, citrus fruits contain high amounts of citric acid, which can worsen bladder control. Citrus fruits to watch out for are:

    oranges
    limes
    lemons
    grapefruits


You should still include fruit as part of your healthy diet, so try less acidic kinds such as apples or bananas. Because everyone reacts differently to foods, experiment to see which fruits cause you more trouble.


Alcoholic beverages

Along with chocolate and coffee, add adult beverages to the list of vices you may want to limit if you have an overactive bladder. This includes:

    beer
    wine
    liquor


Alcohol can irritate the bladder and disrupt the signals to your brain that make you aware of bladder overflow



Carbonated beverages

The fizz in carbonated beverages can potentially aggravate OAB symptoms. Be wary of drinks such as:

    soft drinks
    soda water
    energy drinks


Drinks with both carbonation and caffeine can be extra trouble, and so can champagne, which has carbonation and bladder-stimulating alcohol.


Spicy foods

The same foods that make your eyes water and burn your lips can also irritate your bladder, the Urology Care Foundation advises. Be wary of spicy peppers and sauces. Be extra cautious of spicy salsas, which contain another food on this list: tomatoes.

Again, everyone reacts differently. Before you cut out spicy foods altogether, experiment to see which ones affect you and which ones don’t



Sweeteners

According to the Cleveland Clinic, there’s some evidence that both artificial and natural sweeteners can increase OAB symptoms. As with other foods, you might not have to cut out sugar altogether, but it might be wise to experiment and see if your symptoms lessen when you limit these in your diet.



Processed foods

Processed foods contain a lot of artificial ingredients, such as flavoring and preservatives, which can irritate your bladder and worsen OAB symptoms. A healthy, balanced diet should include natural and fresh foods, such as vegetables and whole grains. This is especially true for people who have OAB.



Onions

Like spicy and acidic foods, onions can cause bladder problems and increase the urge to urinate. Raw onions are the main culprits, so try cooking them before you eat them to reduce the adverse effect they may have on your bladder.



Cranberries

Many people claim that cranberry juice relieves symptoms of urinary tract infections, but cranberries are acidic. Much like tomatoes and citrus fruits, cranberries can potentially irritate your bladder and cause urge incontinence. You might be tempted to try cranberry juice for relief, but it may worsen your symptoms. If you are going to take in fluids, water is your best bet (see next slide).



Balanced water intake

Conventional wisdom might suggest that to avoid the constant urge to urinate, one might drink as little fluid as possible. But that isn’t the case. When it comes to water intake and OAB, the word to remember is “balance.”

Too much water will certainly cause you trouble, but too little fluid will make your urine more concentrated and acidic and can cause an increased need to use the bathroom. Limiting fluid intake can also potentially make you constipated.

Your doctor can tell you the right balance, but most experts suggest drinking the equivalent of six 8-ounce glasses per day and limiting intake in the evenings.



Keep a food diary

Because the effects of food on the body can be different from person to person, it’s impossible to say for certain that you should or shouldn’t avoid each of these foods. A food diary can help you identify which foods cause your symptoms to worsen.

In the diary, note what foods you ate, when you ate them, and any symptoms you experience after. This will allow you to see any patterns or connections between the foods you eat and your OAB symptoms.
