Hypothyroidism (low thyroid)is a hormone imbalance caused when the thyroid does not produce enough thyroid hormone.

Expert Author: Pieternel Van Giersbergen | Category: Dentistry Bad breath(Halitosis)is widespread and quite common.

Years ago when worked in a small clinic the MD's stated; January, February March.....the busiest time of the year. After the holidays with too much candy, people seem to get sick. It is every year the same.
Many years later: Yes I verified the fact that more people are sick, a lot of flu and complications. Doctor's offices, emergency department and hospitals these months are the busiest months of the year.
As a registered nurse I attend many classes, and recently had a small revelation about the relationship between age and the incidence of migraines headaches. Our teacher said that migraines headaches hardly ever appear after the age of 55, and that migraines headaches are related to hormones and hormone change. I found this remarkable, since in my many years in the ER I had in fact seen lots of younger men and women with migraines headaches, but never older men or women.
Expert Author: Pieternel Van Giersbergen | Category: Men Issues When I was asked to write about testosterone and manhood, I started to think of the different ages and the influence of testosterone. Testosterone is the hormone responsible for the development of manhood after the child reaches puberty. This influx of hormones has a great psychological influence, essentially turning boys in men. Muscle mass and strength increases, the sex drive develops, the voice deepens, and the man is endowed with the capacity to reproduce.
Children can have bad breath just as easily as their parents. When the Webmaster of badbreathgone.com asked me to write an article on halitosis (bad breath) and children, my first thought was, "Great, a no brainer!" As an RN and mother who also works in close contact with children in a daycare, I've got plenty of good insight into halitosis in our little ones.
When the Webmaster of www.breathbadgone.com asked me to write an article on halitosis (bad breath) I was thrilled. Strange, you say, that I should be enthused about the subject of halitosis (bad breath)? As an RN for over 25 years I have smelled many, many kinds of breath/ halitosis, and found that breath is a wonderful diagnostic tool. It can tell me how sick the patient is, and sometimes even what they have.
Expert Author: Pieternel Van Giersbergen | Category: Depression Working as a nurse in the emmergency room you meet a beautiful variety of people. Among those for whom I feel a special sympathy are those with bipolar. They can of course be quite the characters: some hear voices, some live on the streets, some have an extraordinary sense of humor, some love to sing and entertain... and much more. One thing bipolar patients have in common is that they take heavy medications, particularly antidepressants that have many side effects.
Because arthritis is so widespread now, it gets a lot of attention from all of us - from the average person to the health professional. Some experts believe that arthritis was first introduced by a strain of virus some two centuries ago. But then, other experts have found conclusive evidence of arthritis in ancient Egyptian mummies. But whether it's two centuries or four millennia, arthritis does seem to be age-related. We are clearly more prone to have it the older we get.
