About Estrogen and Progesterone

Estrogen and Progesterone are
female sex hormones. They are
produced in the ovaries by
developing follicles, the corpus
luteum and the placenta. Both of
them are vital for the general health of the female and the
fetus after fertilization. They are
also important in the menstrual
cycle of females. They even have
medical uses. There is a lot of
health information in the World- Wide Web which describes these
two sex hormones, but this is a
short and detailed article of
their main roles and uses. Their Role in the Menstrual Cycle There two other sex hormones
(FSH and LH) affect the
development of the follicles in
the beginning of the menstrual
cycle. Estrogen and
progesterone are then produced in the follicles. Once estrogen is
produced and secreted by the
follicles (approximately day 5 or
6 of the cycle), it stimulates the
production of more FSH
receptors on the follicle, thereby increasing the amount of
estrogen secreted. With the help
of positive feedback, the
estrogen levels rise dramatically
(day 8-12). This stimulates the
repair of the uterus lining (endometrium). On day 12, the
estrogen levels peak and then
decline, leading to ovulation due
to sharp incline of LH. The follicle
which released the egg cell is
then converted into the corpus luteum. The corpus luteum
secretes progesterone which
repairs the endometrium further.
Estrogen is also secreted by the
corpus luteum, however in a
much smaller amount that progesterone. Both estrogen
and progesterone levels peak
and then decline if no
fertilization occurs (day 22-24).
This results in menstruation. Other Roles and Uses Progesterone and estrogen are
needed throughout pregnancy.
They develop the endometrium
throughout the entire
pregnancy. At first, they are
secreted by the corpus luteum. By the middle of pregnancy, the
corpus luteum degenerates but
estrogen and progesterone are
still secreted by cells in the
placenta. The levels of estrogen
and progesterone increase constantly throughout
pregnancy until childbirth occurs.
The two sex hormones also
develop female sexual
characteristics. It is also known
that estrogen affects the growth and development of the
brain, breasts, bones, liver and
heart. It even regulates our
metabolism. Progesterone is
known to encourage the
production of milk in the breasts during pregnancy. Both of them
are present in some forms of
contraceptive pills, better known
as the pill. This has some effects
on health and the menstrual
cycle. The main effect of the pill is to prevent ovulation from
happening and thereby
preventing pregnancy. The pill
ensures that females have high
levels of both of these sex
hormones in their bodies. This inhibits the secretion of FSH and
thereby the development of the
follicle in order to release its egg
cell. Summary Estrogen and Progesterone are
sex hormones responsible for
the repair and development of
the endometrium. They have
vital roles in pregnancy, where
they develop the endometrium even more. Estrogen and
Progesterone have other roles
and uses such as; developing
organs, producing milk during
pregnancy and their use in the
contraceptive pill.

Do not be obsessed with porn!

Do not be obsessed with porn!
Many people believe that watching porn for
married couples is a way to
search for variations of sexual
intercourse. Many are couples

promising in several countries,
including in our country despite
all the nations underground. The
purpose of making a porn movie
is actually more to provide input to the needs of male and female
fantasy about having sex. In normal circumstances in
domestic life is rarely what is
done in a porn movie can be
done. For example, having sex
three or having sex with the
change of partners. Stories like this movie is just to fulfill a
fantasy most men (in this case
was mostly so) to do things

often make a lot of people try.
That's actually good to make the

intercourse but remember do not get too obsessed with that

dangerous and require better
physical specimen made with

books and movies that adapt
Kamasutra also must be careful

When There's No Sex Again?

Do you ever feel bored with sex that seemed just
that's it? Or feel the couple no
longer attractive? This fair
occurred during the marriage,
let alone who had entered a long
period, over 10 years.

To overcome this, one of them
by doing variations of
lovemaking. However, if you've
had no sex drive, but a new life
for the rest of your wedding
corn? There is absolutely no sexual desire or sexual fantasies
even if your wife or your
husband so menggairahka? Do-
do you suffer from Hypoactive
Sexual Desire Disorder (HSDS).

Weakening of sexual arousal
disorders can be about men and
women of all ages. This condition
can occur in general or
specifically with a particular
partner. For that specific thing, I've discussed in previous articles
Psychogenic Sexual Dysfunction.
This time we will discuss about
why HSDS can happen and how
to handle it.

One thing that is most important
in the diagnosis of sexual arousal
disorder is this happens when
the doctor (in this case a
psychiatrist) has calculated the
age and circumstances of everyday life of the patient that
could affect sexual arousal.

This means that when all these
conditions in normal
circumstances, patients still
complained of impaired sexual
desire, then this is a sign that
should be considered.

Mental disorders such as
depression should also be
removed. We know that in
patients with depression often
decreases sexual desire. This is
not included in the conditions of decreased sexual arousal
disorders such as severe HSDS.

If you find that depressive
disorders found in patients, the
physician should focus on the
treatment of depressive
disorders are usually also will
bring changes to improve sexual arousal.

Patients who experience sexual
arousal disorder need to be
asked complete a physical
abnormality that can cause this
to happen such as terminal
illness (cancer) or absence of symptoms decreased adrenal
gland function in men. The drugs
must also be considered drunk.

Are there medications that can
reduce sexual desire, such as
antipsychotic drugs? Do not
forget to ask how the sexual
function of both partners,
whether the man can erect and the woman could lubrication?
Remember on sexual dysfunction,
although there is passion,
erectile function in this case
erection penis can not be
obtained.

One more thing not to miss is to
assess whether there are
problems in the household. Often
this is a condition which
triggered the drop in sexual
interest. Issues unresolved antarpasangan family can be a
trigger that can make sexual
arousal decreases. Management Examination of testosterone is
one that needs to be done if it
does not prove the existence of
depressive disorders or general
medical disorders that affect the
sexual disorders. Testosterone is a hormone found in men and
women which is the hormone
responsible for sexual arousal. Also, sometimes I ask the patient
to be examined prolaktinnya
levels as well. In men's raised
prolactin levels can also cause
sexual arousal does not exist Do not ever forget the
improvement of communication
and mutual relationship of
openness antarpasangan is the
best way to help this problem.
Household-related problems should be corrected with
counseling and possibly
psychotherapy. Talk to both of
these things with your doctor
together due to issues of sexual
desire is the problem of couples, not individuals only.
