Genital bleeding can be a deeply troubling and worrying symptom. While many things can cause genital bleeding, you may want to consider the possibility of a sexually transmitted infection (STD). Some STIs can lead to bleeding, whether it’s between periods, during or after intercourse, or from other parts of the body. Understanding sexually transmitted infections can cause this symptom and recognizing the importance of early diagnosis and treatment is vital to maintaining sexual health. This blog aims to shed light on which STDs can cause bleeding, the mechanisms behind this symptom and the importance of seeking medical advice if you…
I’ve seen it often—the glamorous pregnant mom with everyone obsessing over her. Complete strangers open doors for her. The perfect pregnancy photos that garner hundreds of likes on Instagram and Facebook. The comments harp on how glowing she is and everyone exclaims that they can’t wait to meet the baby. I’ve seen all of this happen in every pregnancy I’ve seen — and in my own pregnancy experience. But what I’ve never really seen people acknowledge is the truth that it is pregnancy hard— and that romantic pregnancy can actually be harmful. We live in a society where there is…
After a long day, the last thing you want to do is spend an hour in the kitchen cooking dinner from scratch. That’s where meal prep comes in!

Meal prep is the solution when you want healthy and delicious food but don’t have time to prepare it every day. Now I know what you’re thinking… Meal prepping is too much work and you don’t want to eat the same things every day. But the good news is that you can do it your…
As you may have gathered by now, I love nothing more than escaping to the desert and exploring the great outdoors. And if you’ve read any of my other blog posts, you’ll know how much I absolutely adore the adidas Terrex line women’s walking boots and hiking shoes. I have never come across a pair of walking shoes that fit like a glove (or should I say sock!) from the very first moment you step on them and they have never given me blisters. It is the literal dream. That’s why I wanted my husband to get a good…
Cells are highly controlled spaces that rely on each protein being in the right place. Many diseases, including cancers and neurodegenerative disorders, are associated with misfolded proteins. In some cancers, for example, a protein that normally monitors DNA being copied in the nucleus is sent away from the DNA it’s meant to monitor, allowing cancers to grow. Steven Banik, an assistant professor of chemistry in the School of Humanities and Sciences and an institute scholar at Sarafan ChEM-H at Stanford University, and his lab have developed a new method to help force misguided proteins back into their proper homes within…

Both glycolic and salicylic acids can have a transformative effect on the skin, but they serve different purposes and address different needs. Glycolic acid, an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA), exfoliates the skin’s surface, while salicylic acid, a beta-hydroxy acid (BHA), penetrates deeper to unclog pores and reduce inflammation.. Additionally, salicylic acid is oil-soluble, making it effective for oily and acne-prone skin, while glycolic acid works best for dry or aging skin. By understanding some of the nuances between these two powerful ingredients, you can learn to incorporate them into your skin care routine for maximum results and improvements in the health…
I’ve imagined going to a yoga retreat for decades. Can you imagine that? Wake up at dawn to meditate and journal before a long yoga session on the beach in some exotic location. Luxurious afternoon restorative yoga sessions with aromatherapy. Evenings were spent exploring a new city and dining with new friends on their own journey to find inner peace. And since that’s it my fantasy… There are also spa visits and naps. This will be a reality for me one day. But today is not that day. Money doesn’t exist, and neither does time. But you don’t have to…
A major reason why it has been difficult to develop an effective vaccine for HIV is that the virus mutates very quickly, allowing it to evade the antibody response generated by vaccines. Several years ago, MIT researchers showed that giving a series of escalating doses of an HIV vaccine over two weeks could help overcome some of this challenge by creating larger amounts of neutralizing antibodies. However, a multiple-dose vaccine regimen given over a short period of time is not practical for mass vaccination campaigns. In a new study, researchers have now found that they can achieve a similar immune…
