Simeons: The Four Phases Of HCG Treatment

Making big choices in life can be difficult, especially if that big choice is having children. There are many men and women who are infertile that still want to have children. Most decide to adopt other children who do not have families or their families do not want them. But when adoption is not an option, there is now a way where those men and women can have their own children together through fertility treatments. Fertility treatments could be a good thing:being able to freeze egg and sperm, they can help infertile couples, and avoiding transmitted diseases would be easier.

Patients will frequently take Phentermine plateau in their weight loss after a number of months. Their body acquired utilized to the medicine and reacts as powerful as in the past.

Ms. E’s desires a faster weight loss than that recommended and as a hypnotherapist, I must encourage her to lose weight at a healthier manageable and realistic rate.

All patients regardless of healthy BMI or not should have their BMI check by a healthcare worker at least yearly. Patients that are noted to have one co morbidity and a BMI of 25 should be counseled on weight loss. Patients that are noted to be obese have a suggested weight loss goal of anywhere from 3% to 10%. Obesity is a lifestyle disease so it would only be right to have the next point beginning at changing your diet, and physical activity while still counseled by your healthcare worker. When dieting an individual’s diet should be tailored to their co morbidities if any present. Patient that need to be counseled will need to be advised on how to reduce their caloric intake while gradually starting toincreasetheirworkouts and physical activity. A caloric restriction of 1800 kcal for men and 1500 kcal a day for women is usually recommended. Some patients may also benefit from different workout programs like group sessions or one to one sessions with a personal trainer. If those intervention fail and the patient has a BMI of 40 or more or a BMI of 35 or more with one or more comorbidities some form of bariatric surgery may be suggested. There are not many pharmaceutical treatments available for weight loss management. Many of these drugs on the market are known to have severe side effects such as cardiac

If I were a pregnant or lactating woman I would be eating less carbohydrates and more fiber, protein and vegetable as well as making a concentrated effort to drink milk. When my children were small I didn’t have a lot of money so I saved the milk for them and got out of the habit of drinking it. Now I have a small intolerance for lactose, I cannot tolerate large quantities of dairy without some suffering. I would be recommended to take in the first trimester would be 2544 calories/ day, second trimester 2744 calories/ day, third trimester 2934 calories/ day. At the current caloric intake that I have now I am not taking in nearly enough to support a pregnancy. I would need to adjust my eating habits. As a lactating woman my caloric intake would be 2544 calories/ day. Still I would need to keep my modification in place in order to keep a baby nourished appropriately without depleting myself (Calorie calculator-).

Patients who were priorly successful in losing at least ten pounds by some other method of weight lose resulted in a additional twenty-six percent of initial excess weight.

Regarding my continuity case, she came into booking with a BMI of 31; meaning she was clinically obese. It is important to take into account that according to NICE guidelines (2014) weight is defined into groups. BMI 18.5-24.9 (Healthy weight); BMI 25.0-29.9 (Overweight) BMI 30.0-34.9 (Obesity class 1); BMI 35.0-39.9 (Obesity class 2); and BMI 40 and over (Obesity class 3 or morbid obesity.) When using this classification method we can see that this lady falls into class 1; meaning that according to NICE they advise at this stage we give general advice on healthy weight and lifestyle, along with diet and physical activity. It is should be remembered that diet is not usually advised before during or immediately after pregnancy; but these women should be encouraged to attempt to eat a healthy, well balanced diet (Nutrition and Development, 2013).

Weight loss or bariatric surgery, as defined by the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery, is a surgery that “works by changing the anatomy of your gastrointestinal tract” or by “causing different physiologic changes in your body that change your energy balance and fat metabolism.” Weight loss surgery ultimately changes a person’s desire

It finally came! Ok, well, it was actually in the mailbox since yesterday and I hadn 't checked it until today... Nevertheless, it came! Yes folks, I have bought into this recently resurging fad, as I have with many trendy diets, and, as I 'm sure many of you reading this have, as well. We are always in search of that magic pill that flips a switch in us and makes us shed our flabby shells. This diet plan, strict as it may be, is selling itself as such; I plan to try and find out why. It seems HCG (Human chorionic gonadotropin) is everywhere you turn lately; health food stores, magazine racks, your neighbors ' blog. If you enter it into the search engine the brand sponsored "top ten lists", the many hundreds of venders and the company funded "safety review" sites come flooding at you by the hundreds of thousands; making an already difficult decision spiral into chaos. For those of you who are of baby boomer and older age, you may recall this being popular when you were younger. Now, to answer a nagging, yet presumably distasteful, question: yes, this is that same diet you heard of when you were younger wherein pregnant women sold their urine to doctors so they could harvest the hormone. This derivative of prego-pee was then injected into hopeful masses of women looking to drop a sizeable amount of weight without having to stick their fingers down their throat or take "diet pills", which were then simply over-glorified, medically manufactured, fancy meth by prescription.

Its intake, however, is limited to only 16 days. The doctors undoubtedly recognize that when HCG is taken for too long or at too high a dosage, it can desensitize the LH receptor. This would only further exacerbate the post-cycle problem, not help it. Anti-estrogens are used during and after HCG, with a dosage of 10mg of Nolvadex and 100mg of Clomid per day rounding out this compliment of drugs. Clomid is used for a shorter period of time than Nolvadex, likely because of the desensitizing effect it too can have (on the pituitary gland) with continued use. Among other things, these two anti-estrogens will continue to foster LH release as testosterone levels start to go back up, as well as combat any potential estrogenic side effects that may be caused by HCG’s up-regulation of testicular aromatase activity. Although in the first couple of weeks the anti-estrogens probably do very little, they should be more helpful toward the middle and end of the program. During this clinical investigation, normal hormonal function has restored in all subjects within 45 days of drug cessation. This is a definite success, far more favorable than the protracted recovery window noted in studies without post-cycle therapy, such as the 250mg/week testosterone enanthate investigation. For me, I believe such a detailed recovery program should follow any serious steroid cycle. It is the best way to maintain your gains at their maximum, and that is after all, what we are

In this week’s assignment, the claimant was 5'9" and weighed 370 pounds, giving her a body mass index (BMI) of 46 (a BMI of 20-25 is the ideal range for an adult, and a BMI, of greater than 40 indicates a serious weight problem and carries the greatest risk for medical complications. The patient was referred to an endocrinologist for further intervention, placed on appropriate oral medication, and given an appropriate carbohydrate-restricted diet. With ongoing telephonic support from the case manager during the initial trial of medication, the patient showed improvement. The patient regularly attended both Weight Watchers and the bariatric support group meetings, and kept a written log of her meals When the case manager suggested that she identify her

BPD is achieving the highest sustained weight loss of all procedures (approximately 75 %). Additionally, it is especially appropriate for diseases with uncontrollable food intake like binge eating disorders or in patients with Prader–Willi syndrome. Furthermore, BPD has also the highest potential for comorbidity (diabetes, hypertension, and obstructive sleep apnea) resolution (Scopinaro et al., 2005), (Prager

It was merely a decade ago that the obesity epidemic was thought to only be a minor problem and had only alarmed a small number of endocrinologists interested by the size of the situation (James, 2008). However today, the problem of obesity is vast with more awareness of its presence by doctors and individuals alike. In fact, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention states, “More than one-third (34.9% or 78.6 million) of U.S. adults are obese (CDC, 2014)”. These numbers are outrageous and eye opening, leaving millions looking for a solution to this troubling epidemic. Obesity is not simply a cosmetic flaw as some might think, but is actually a very dangerous state of being for any individual to sustain long-term. Mentioned further in

Morbid obesity, which is also called extreme obesity or class III, is defined as an individual having a BMI of 40 kg/m2 or greater. This classification is made based on increased risk for comorbidities, including hypertension, cardiovascular disease, sleep apnea, gallbladder disease, metabolic syndrome, type II diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, osteoarthritis, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, hormonal cancers, and depression, among others.1
