A Healthy Womb is Priceless

Women are caring for their families by putting their healthcare first

As a woman ages, she learns how important the health of her womb is to her family. She knows she is responsible for bringing forward healthy children.  The lack of a woman’s health should not limit her from having healthy children. Women live longer, healthier, and fitter lives by actively caring for their health needs as a priority. Women are caring for their families by putting their healthcare first.

Why do doctors suggest removing the uterus as the first option for treating uterine fibroids? Some physicians are unwilling to evolve in their approach to treatment, and others may not be experienced or knowledgeable about other methods. There are different methods professionals use to treat complications with your uterus. 

A woman may choose to have a hormonal uterine internal device (I.U.D.) inserted as a treatment or have a myomectomy procedure done depending on her individual needs. Additional treatment methods cause infertility. These include uterine ablation and hysterectomy. Being unable to give birth to children can make a woman feel inadequate because she needs to parent, educate, and nurture children naturally. 

The womb is essential to women who want to raise a family

The uterus is the woman’s womb, her cavity, that holds her unborn children before birth. The womb is essential to women who want to raise a family. When women are forced to give up their uterus because of health issues, it can be devastating. Women do not want their uterus removed if they have other options.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (C.D.C.), from 2006-2010, 11.7 percent of women between the ages of 40-44 had a hysterectomy. Approximately 600,000 hysterectomies are performed annually in the United States, and about 20 million American women have had a hysterectomy. Https:// nwhn.org/hysterectomy/

Some women’s uterus is removed because of health problems associated with large or multiple benign tumors. Many women have gynecological problems that left them with deep emotional and physical scars. Many of these women have experienced forced entry into their vaginas and learned poor self-care. The internal health system can hide these scars in the woman’s mind, body, and soul. However, these scars are evident in a female’s moods and behavior.

Immature females need guidance from mature mothers or other women in their families. Young girls need to be shown how to perform self-care and emotion regulation. Girls between the ages of 7 and 9 should be prepared by their female parents or guardians about their menstruation and ovulation cycle. Many children have learned about their period from the bleeding in their panties. 

Parents must educate their children about their emotions, bodies, and hygiene alone

Youth will need information about their body even after going through numerous menstruation cycles. Some young girls still have no idea how to track their process or recognize irregular patterns. Education about sexuality and the prevention of promiscuity need to happen before a child’s menstruation. The emotions caused by menstruation may severely damage a child’s mind and body. Parents must educate their children about their emotions, bodies, and hygiene alone. These discussions with children must be planned and initiated by parents. Parents should provide a a safe confidential space.

Suppose a parent does not initiate planned parent education early, the risk of their teen son or daughter suffering from sexually transmitted life-threatening diseases or unplanned pregnancies, in addition to unsafe abortions, sexual abuse, and human trafficking. The mother must teach her daughter about her uterus and the sacredness of her virginity. She needs to know that she is precious, and her body is priceless. The purpose of a daughter’s uterus is for her family’s future, and it should be protected until the right husband is chosen for her by the father and immediate family.

Why does the family value a woman’s uterus as such a sacred space? The sacred space houses the growth and development of a woman’s bloodline. Without a pure and healthy lineage, the family does not continue. If the womb is damaged prematurely, it runs the risk of losing any opportunity to bring forward the next generation of advanced contributors to the family and community. If a woman treats her uterus like it is sacred, she will get the most value out of it. The problem currently in society is females, in record numbers, have damaged their uteruses before they matured mentally.

At birth, the uterus functions optimally without any interference from abnormal growths or blockages in the uterine tract. At sexual maturity and beyond, women can manage self-care through nutrition, exercise, and rest. Women can carry numerous births into full-term until she reaches menopause stage. Menopause comes early, if you have a hysterectomy prematurely.

The uterine tract is made up of layers and organs that aid in generating children. The vaginal opening leads to the uterine lot, where the womb is the focal point. The fallopian tubes and ovary organs are attached and are necessary for the fertilization process of mature eggs with sperm. The cavity that holds the child has an opening called the cervix is the first layer called the Intramural layer; next is the submucosal layer. The endometrium layer, the outer layers are the myometrium (muscle) and subserosal layers, and each organ is covered with a serosal layer. These layers support the embryo’s development by supplying the iron and other nutrients prepared by the menstrual cycle. 

Estrogen is a group of steroid hormones that promote the development and maintenance of female characteristics of the body. Such hormones are also produced artificially for use in oral contraceptives or to treat menopausal and menstrual disorders. Menopause is the period in a woman’s life (typically between 45 and 50 years of age) when menstruation ceases. There is a monthly cycle of estrogens and progesterone. Progesterone is a steroid hormone released by the corpus luteum that stimulates the uterus to prepare for pregnancy.

Some women carry multiple fetuses at a time. It is ideal to be pregnant with one child at a time, though. During pregnancy, a woman’s body requires enough iron in her blood to satisfy both her fetus and her own nutrition needs. Iron is essential in all stages of a woman’s life.

The deficiency of iron is a common cause of anemia

Often, women become anemic during menstrual cycles and pregnancies. Iron is an essential mineral necessary for transporting oxygen (via hemoglobin in red blood cells) and oxidation by cells (via cytochrome). The deficiency of iron is a common cause of anemia.

Puberty begins in the brain and then the body. It is the time in life when a girl becomes sexually (physical changes) mature. It is a process that usually happens between ages 10 and 14 for girls. Young girls begin to menstruate and can quickly become pregnant from sexual intercourse. Their emotions are unregulated during this time. They are not able to make logical decisions without interference from their feelings. Girls require education and guidance from their mother and direction and protection from their father at this crucial time of their life.

A woman’s medical symptoms and issues they experience do not appear transparent regarding their internal health. It seems the professional gynecologist is not able to recognize initial signs. Symptoms may not be evident because women do not recognize the differences in suffering from internal pain and pressure.

Women experience various levels of pain and pressure in their daily lives and monthly cycles. Women often internalize pain and stress to be productive in the home and care for their families. Women experience emotional and physical intensity from menstrual periods. The cramping, bleeding, and length of menstrual cycles are not specific, so a young lady could experience abnormal periods and not know. Women experience emotional changes during a monthly cycle. These changes are reactions to pain and pressure they feel in their mind and body. Both mental and physical changes may occur during the premenstrual, menstrual, postmenstrual, or ovulation stages.

It is essential to prioritize your health by making a schedule that includes sunshine, health education, nutrition, and regular exercise

Women in large families may experience common symptoms and view them as usual signs instead of a reason for concern. Many families have inherited health diseases that are environmental and have mistaken them as genetic ones. Uterine fibroids are common in women who are obese, experience long periods of stress without relief, and do not exercise regularly. Symptoms include the protruding bulk abdomen, depression, fatigue, incontinence, constipation, heavy bleeding, cramping pain, and shortness of breath. One may have uterine fibroids with or without symptoms. A woman must seek a health professional and have an ultrasound done with a pelvic exam to determine if she has any benign or malignant tumors growing on her uterus or uterine tract. Some other problems that could be associated with the above symptoms are uterine polyps and uterine cancer. It is essential to prioritize your health by making a schedule that includes sunshine, health education, nutrition, and regular exercise.
