How does a testicular ultrasound help diagnose urological conditions and detect cancer early?

Testicular ultrasound, also known as a scrotal ultrasound, is a safe and non-invasive diagnostic tool frequently used to assess issues related to the testicles and surrounding tissues.

The effects of PCOS on fertility

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a chronic hormonal disorder that is caused by the ovaries having an imbalance in hormone production. It is not an incredibly rare condition, as it is estimated that 13% of people of reproductive age have it, with a further estimated 70% of them remaining undiagnosed. It cannot be permanently cured, and those who have PCOS may face difficulties with their fertility, but it can be managed and pregnancy is still possible.

Building confidence: overcoming low self-esteem in teens

Being a teenager is tough – and also, unfortunately, completely unavoidable. During the turbulence of adolescence, teens go through a lot of confusing changes in their bodies and their hormones. This can cause changes in mood, habits, likes, and behaviour. However, your teen isn’t going through it alone; their peers and friends will also be going through this process, affecting their relationships and friendships. All of this can be difficult to adjust to, and their self-esteem may suffer as a result. In this article a leading GP with expertise in mental health shares insight on how to get your teen feeling confident and good about themselves.

Minimally invasive techniques and the latest developments to improve ageing skin

Unfortunately, time comes for us all, and it is not often kind. We wear our years and experiences on our skin, but sometimes it may look like more years than we’ve actually lived! As skin ages, it loses fat, elasticity, and solid colouration, and this skin is unable to regenerate as it did in youth. This results in skin that is thin, sagging and loose, wrinkly, and speckled with sunspots and discolouration. There are several procedures on the market to conceal and reverse the effects of ageing, ranging from major plastic surgery to daily skincare regimens.

Bedwetting: understanding and management

Bedwetting, also called enuresis, is quite normal for children to do as they are still learning how to control their bladders. When babies are born, they are unable to control their bladders and bowels – rightfully so! – and parents will put them in diapers so that they can “go potty” whenever. But as they start developing communication skills and independent mobility once they’re a little older, between 18 months to three years, they will indicate their readiness to use the toilet themselves.
