Gamete Intrafallopian Transfer (GIFT) - A Fertility Treatment
There are many couples out there who are unable to conceive despite earnest and
dedicated attempts. The advancement in the field of medicine has made available
the assisted reproductive technology (ART). But how can one determine as to
which one is the best for them? IVF, ZIFT, and GIFT- all have their pros and
cons. This article will help you know more about GIFT and will guide you on how
it fares in comparison to the other fertility treatments. What is Gamete
Intra-fallopian Transfer and how does it help? Gamete Intra-fallopian Transfer
or GIFT combines modern medicine with the natural process. Many people feel that
the union of the sperm and the egg is the beginning of life and should begin in
the body and not in a petri-dish. GIFT works by collecting the sperms and eggs
of the donors, mixing them and then re-introducing this mixture into the
fallopian tube. This form of ART is beneficial for men who have a low sperm
count. It has also been known to produce successful results for women suffering
from endometriosis. However, it is advised that women who have issues with the
fallopian tube should not apply for this treatment. Who can be treated with
GIFT? The people who can benefit from this procedure include: Couples who are
unable to conceive due to unknown causes. Couples who are not comfortable with
IVF. Those who have tried IVF but have failed to get pregnant. Women who have a
healthy fallopian tube. Men who have issues with a low sperm count Women who
have cervical problems that prevent the sperm from entering the uterus Couples
whose personal belief system does not agree with IVF Procedure of Gamete
Intra-fallopian Transfer Below is the step by step process of what transpires
before, during and after the surgery: An X-ray is done to do a thorough
investigation of the fallopian tube and to check for scarring or the existence
of blockages. You will be provided with certain drugs that will help stimulate
your ovaries to produce eggs. Upon maturation, the eggs will be located using
ultrasound. Two weeks after the hormone treatment, the doctor will extract the
egg from the ovaries. This is done with the help of a small catheter. The entire
process can take about half an hour. As a precaution, not more than two-three
eggs are used. This is mainly to avoid complications like multiple pregnancies.
The sperms (provided by your partner) in the meantime are collected and washed,
ready to get mixed with the egg. A thin tubular instrument will be used to
insert this mixture into your fallopian tube through the cervix via a catheter.
In some instances, an incision (laparoscopy) will be made on your tummy to do
the same. Progesterone hormones will be injected into the bloodstream or
administered in gel form to help prepare the uterus. After fertilization, the
blastocyst will implant itself into the uterus initiating the beginning of the
pregnancy process. A pregnancy test should be taken after half a month from the
date of the surgery to find out if the procedure was a success. How long does
GIFT take? A gamete intra-fallopian transfer can be fully completed in one and a
half months. This includes the entire process beginning from the initiation of
the hormonal therapy and right until implantation. The surgical procedure alone
would take a little more than eight hours, and you can go back home on the same
day as the operation. Success Rate of Gamete Intra-fallopian Transfer The
success rate of this procedure is dependent on age and health conditions. On an
average, twenty-five to thirty percent of the couples succeed in conceiving
using this method. Women who are young and in good health, stand a better chance
of achieving success. Even if the procedure is not successful the first time,
the process can be repeated, and the chances of success would not diminish. It
is to be noted that if an older woman manages to produce a satisfactory amount
of eggs, she stands the same chance as a younger woman. Difference between GIFT
and IVF In IVF, the fertilization of the egg happens in a lab, and this egg is
then placed inside the uterus. On the other hand, GIFT ensures that the
fertilization takes place inside the body. After fertilization, the egg travels
to the uterus where it implants itself. In IVF, the egg is artificially placed
into the uterus. One significant advantage that IVF has over GIFT is that it
does not require a functional fallopian tube. Difference between GIFT and ZIFT
In ZIFT, a fertilized egg is placed into the fallopian tube rather than a
mixture of the egg and sperm. On the other hand, GIFT allows a natural
environment for the fertilization to take place whereas ZIFT does the
fertilization artificially. Advantages of GIFT The procedure takes only about a
day. Fertilisation takes place in its natural environment. Disadvantages of GIFT
There is no validation method to know if fertilization has taken place. There is
a chance of multiple pregnancies if more than one egg is used. This can lead to
a miscarriage or financial/emotional burden of raising more kids than initially
intended. It is invasive due to the use of a laparoscopy which increases the
chance of complications. There is a risk of ectopic pregnancy where the egg gets
implanted outside the uterus. Babies born using this method have a higher
susceptibility to congenital disabilities. There is a chance that the treatment
does not work. The entire process is time-consuming and expensive. The procedure
relies on the same methods used for IVF in ovary simulation. If you have
experienced ovarian hyperstimulation during IVF, there is a chance that you will
experience the same with GIFT. While rare, there is a small chance of infection
that can develop during this surgery. Cost of GIFT GIFT is an expensive method
and costs between Rs 10.5 lakhs to 14 lakhs. This may or may not include the
cost of medications. While this may seem to be an exorbitant amount, a study has
shown that GIFT is more cost-effective than other fertility treatments. GIFT is
one of the latest technologies that help couples conceive a child. There are a
lot of controversies around assisted reproduction due to ethical considerations.
Many believe that humans should not interfere with the creation process.
Treatments, especially IVF, are an affront to God and nature. GIFT offers itself
as a solution to those individuals who have such a belief system. Also

Eczema After Pregnancy – Causes and Tips to Handle It
Congratulations! After encountering nine months of body changes and various up
and downs of hormonal levels, you now have a lively bundle of joy in your life.
But for some of you, this happiness is still a far-fetched dream owing to the
eczema attack post-delivery. Due to hormonal changes and skin changes during
pregnancy, eczema can make a comeback at the time of pregnancy and after
delivery. We will share some tips on how you can manage your eczema condition
after your delivery and beyond it as well. What Causes Eczema After Child Birth?
Pregnancy is the most beautiful time in a woman’s life, but it can also be a
tough time for those who has already faced a bout of eczema earlier in their
lives. The physical stress of having a baby and the hormonal changes associated
with it can contribute to unexpected conditions like eczema to flare up. 1.
Changes in Immune system Pregnancy brings a lot of change in the body and the
immune system. The immune system generally becomes weaker to accommodate the
baby and not to reject it as a foreign object. After the delivery, your immune
system will start recovering and can at times overreact leading to inflammation
of the body and the skin causing the eczema condition. 2. Changes in the hormone
After your delivery, your body will start figuring out the correct balance of
your hormones again. Hormonal eczema after pregnancy can cause your skin to get
dry making them itchy and flaky. 3. Stress Post-pregnancy stress is also one of
the major reasons to get an eczema attack after delivery. Sleep deprivation can
increase your anxiety levels which in turn can lead to eczema condition. 4. New
Allergies During and after pregnancy many of you can experience that you have
developed new allergies. A quick allergy test can help you know the triggers to
it so that you can avoid them and get relief from eczema. How to Deal with Post
Pregnancy Eczema? Some of you experience eczema worst after delivery while
others develop eczema after c-section. The most important thing to avoid or
contain eczema is to know the possible causes of getting it after delivery. 1.
Environmental Factors Most of the time it is the environment that acts as a
trigger to developing eczema. Pet dander, sensitivity to certain food, lotions
or even detergent powders could cause your eczema to worsen. 2. Keep Your Skin
Moisturised It would help if you avoid using any harsh soaps on your body so
that your skin does not dry out. 3. Apply Aloe Vera Gel An application of aloe
vera gel or calendula provides relief to the skin affected with eczema. 4. Black
Currant Oil Include black currant oil in your diet 500 mg twice daily. It is
rich in gamma-linolenic acid that is known to promote healthy growth of hair,
skin and nails. 5. Avoid Dairy Products Try to avoid dairy and dairy products
and products that have hydrogenated oils and trans-fatty acids. 6. Tepid Baths
To alleviate your symptoms you can use warm tepid baths, followed by an
application of emollients and topical steroids. 7. Managing Stress Practicing
yoga also helps in reducing your stress after delivery thereby successfully
combating eczema attacks. Some of the experts advise breastfeeding mothers to
avoid methotrexate and cyclosporin to treat eczema after delivery. Can You
Breastfeed with Eczema? The most uncomfortable area where a woman might get
eczema is the areola or nipples. It can be a usual case of eczema or can be a
result of some food the baby is eating which the mother is intolerant to. Yes,
you can surely continue to breastfeed your baby. With eczema, breastfeeding can
only stop if it hurts the mother. Breastfeeding actually helps to prevent other
issues like plugged milk ducts and mastitis. Here are a few tips for
breastfeeding when you have eczema: Mothers are usually advised to apply an
emollient and topical steroid on the affected areas in between the feeds. Take
utmost care to wash off the medicines thoroughly before nursing the baby. Avoid
wearing tight-fitting bras and wash off any moisture around your breasts with
breast pads. Can Having Eczema Affect The Baby? In most of the cases, eczema is
a condition that is hereditary, especially if you or your any of your family
members have medical conditions like allergies or autoimmune disorders then your
baby will also be more likely be affected with eczema. Eczema sometimes heals on
its own. Keep your skin moisturized and try to figure out your eczema triggers
to be able to manage them successfully. Focus on getting enough rest and sleep
to avoid any stress build-up. Also Read: How to Deal with Postpartum Hives?

Importance of Positive Environment in Your Child’s Life
The importance of a positive environment in parenting can never be undermined.
Read this article to know how you can create a stimulating, challenging
environment for your little one, so that he is never short of confidence.
Environment plays a crucial role in shaping your child’s perceptions. A
nurturing environment not only broadens his horizons, but also keeps his
curiosity quotient high. In a positive environment, a child is not inhibited to
ask questions or form opinions. He surges ahead in life with cheer and spirit.
But, what exactly is environment? If viewed from your preschooler’s perspective,
it is the combination of many factors or components such as –the visual, the
auditory, the emotional and the social. A positive environment consists of all
these factors in the right proportion. As a parent or caregiver, creating the
right sort of environment is a challenge; you need to learn new things
constantly. Creating a Cheerful Environment for Your Little One 1. Visual
Environment Right since the time he is born, your little one watches the world
with eyes wide open. As a preschooler, he begins assimilating these facts.
Hence, look at your child’s nursery with his eyes. Are the walls too bleak? Or
too cluttered? Is your child overwhelmed with too many brightly-colored shelves?
If yes, then now is the time to re-define and un-clutter. A place where your
child spends most of his time would have to be visually stimulating for his
little developing brain. Don’t overwhelm with too many bright visual props.
Instead, opt for a cleaner approach. Designate a space on the nursery wall to
showcase his little creations; for example, the drawings which he has completed
or his latest origami craft. You could also put washable paint in your child’s
room, so that he can give vent to his creativity. Let your child’s nursery be
the place of his pride - his own little personal nook. 2. Auditory Environment A
stimulating auditory environment can enliven your kid’s environment. It also
helps him to discern patterns and rhythms. Sing as you play with your child.
Designate one day in a week, where all the members in the family could sit in a
circle and sing their favourite songs. Also, encourage your child to form
opinions. Encourage him to participate in group activities like choir, etc. Play
soft music before putting him to sleep. 3. Integrated Environment Do you find
yourself often complaining that your child is messy? There could be two reasons
for this: Either he is too young to realise the importance of staying organised
or he is unable to keep it organised. Ask yourself if the closet racks are too
high? Are his favourite books always out of reach? Does he keep searching for
all his favourite puzzles just because you hid them away for the fear of losing?
Are your child’s favorite toys always invisible? If that is the case, you need
to re-think about many things. Help your child feel that he’s in control of his
life. Simplify the environment around him. Buy clothes which he can easily put
on himself. Buy boxes or stools so that he can reach out for bathroom shelves
and faucets. Teach him the importance of safety. Keep sharp objects out of his
reach. 4. Emotional Environment The positive emotional environment at home is
very important for normal child development. If a child feels safe and secured
at home, then he will feel free to express himself and explore new things.
Parent-child interaction must be emotionally nurturing. Generally, kids who grow
up in such environment are sensitive and responsive to their needs. Encourage
your child to try new things and express his ideas. A caring and responsive
parent can provide a positive climate for kids, and this will help in cognitive
development of kids. Finally, remember the right kind of environment makes the
task of parenting much easier. Create the right environment and bring positivity
into your preschooler’s life. Read more

Want to Look Your Best This Valentine's Day? Here are 21 Things You Should Start
Doing Today!
If there’s one day couples look forward to to celebrate their love, apart from
their anniversaries, it’s Valentine’s Day! Come February, almost everything
looks like it’s been adorned in something red or lacy - be it store windows or
even websites you visit! As a couple with kids, you may not get much ‘we-time’
but V-Day makes for a good excuse to get some quiet time together to rekindle
the romance between you and your partner. And we’re sure you want to look
positively fabulous when the 14th of February rolls around. Well, start doing
these things from today to make sure you’re glowing and ready for Valentine’s
Day! 21 Things You Can Do to Look Drop-dead Gorgeous on Valentine’s Day Flawless
skin, shiny hair, and the body for your dream outfit - these are pretty much the
only three things that you need to get in order. Why? Well, beautiful skin sets
the foundation for your makeup; if your hair is cooperative, you can style it
just the way you like it; and of course you want to show off that lovely outfit
you’ve been dying to wear ever since you set eyes on it! But there’s some work
that needs to happen in the background to get these things in order! Follow
these tips to look your best when you step out for a date night with your
beloved! 1. Skin Health It’s probably just a couple of days in a year where you
might want to take the extra effort to doll up instead of sporting an ashen
face, panda eyes, and cracked lips! Make V-day an occasion to deck up for your
partner by caring for your skin a few days in advance. Start with hydration. If
you don’t drink enough water in a day, your skin quality starts to decrease. It
becomes dry, leads to more breakouts because toxins are not getting flushed out,
and also is a cause for chapped lips. Drinking water isn’t the only thing you
need to do to hydrate your skin - invest in a good moisturiser and use it twice
a day to nourish your skin. The results of proper hydration start showing in
very little time, so start immediately. Before leaving the house during the day,
check off a few things - keys, your phone, your child’s things, and also,
whether or not you’ve applied sunscreen! We know we don’t need to harp on the
benefits of using sunscreen but here’s a note - makeup products with SPF don’t
count as substitutes for the real thing! Also, use a scarf or a shawl to protect
your skin (and hair) from harsh sunlight. Don’t try out any new makeup/skincare
products on the days leading up to V-Day. While it may not be as big a risk as
we’re making it out to be, there’s still a good chance that your skin may react
to unfamiliar ingredients...and NOT very favourably! Cleansing and toning your
skin should be a part of your daily skincare routine. Once in a few days,
exfoliate your skin well with a gentle scrub (don’t over-exfoliate to the point
that your skin feels too raw either!). Indulge in an at-home steam facial too,
using a vapouriser available at any pharmacy; 5 sessions of 2 minutes each, with
breaks in between for your skin to breathe, is perfect. Apply a homemade face
mask afterwards, to seal the deal. Exfoliation clears your skin of dead skin
cells, steam opens up your pores, and a good face mask hydrates the skin and
gives it that rosy glow! Nourish your skin from within by paying attention to
your diet. Certain foods can do wonders for your skin health, while some, not so
much. Cut back (don’t quit instantly though!) on sugar and spicy foods for a
couple of days. Fill your diet with almonds, broccoli, strawberries, citrus
fruits, leafy greens, and even dark chocolate (less than 20 grams a day). 2.
Hair Health Lustrous locks call for daily care as well! Strengthen and nourish
your hair in a short span with these handy tips. As much as you may find the
need to constantly wash your hair, your hair would do better without it. Washing
your hair every alternate day, as opposed to daily will give it a breather from
drying out. And when you do wash your hair, never skip using the conditioner - a
good conditioner helps detangle and smoothen your hair. Shampoo simply cleanses
and removes impurities from your hair, while a conditioner locks in the moisture
you need for healthy, shiny hair! Pull back your hair into a loose bun when you
go to bed, such that it’s not flying about all over the place and getting
entangled and knotted. The subsequent brushing process the next day will be
nothing short of a battle - in which neither you or your hair will win! Also,
before going to bed, massage your scalp gently with your fingertips for a little
while. This promotes healthy blood circulation which will nourish the roots of
your hair, making it healthier from within. Get your hair trimmed or try out a
flattering haircut, so that by the time Valentine’s Day rolls around, your split
ends will no longer will a woe to deal with, frizzy hair won’t bother you, and
you’ll also feel amazing! Keep away from heat stylers till the 14th, whether
it’s your handy hairdryer or straightener or curler. Instead, towel-dry your
hair very gently with a microfibre towel, then leave it to dry naturally. You
can use a leave-in conditioner if your hair is prone to too many flyaways. As
with your skincare routine, depend on natural elements such as eggs, aloe vera,
bananas, strawberries, yoghurt, argan or coconut oil, to pamper your hair. Use
hair masks with these ingredients to give your hair the strength it deserves and
the shine it’s capable of! Don’t just apply food items on your hair, include
them in your diet too. Eggs, spinach, nuts and seeds, sweet potatoes, beans and
so on can promote healthy hair growth. 3. Overall Health! With your skin and
your crowning glory in place, the only other thing left to take care of is your
overall health. It’s not just about becoming slim enough to fit into a dress;
it’s also about promoting your confidence that’s going to add to your glamour!
Now, losing weight in a few days can be achieved in a couple of ways –
starvation or crash-dieting shouldn’t be one of them! Eat your fill to ensure
that your body isn’t deprived of any nutrients and makes you feel all tired and
haggard on the big day. The only thing you need to ensure is that you eat right!
Cut back on carbs and sugar-laden foods. A low-carb diet typically includes
sources of protein (meat, fish, etc.) and non-starchy vegetables. Grains, nuts
and seeds, bread, sweets and so on are considered to be high-carb sources, which
is what you’ll need to reduce in your diet in the days leading up to V-Day. Now,
don’t stop eating all these all at once, because that won’t do your body any
good either. Instead, phase them out slowly, and replace them with non-starchy
vegetables and rich sources of protein. The results of cutting back on
carb-heavy foods can be seen pretty quickly on the body. Watch your calorie
intake. A lot of times, you may think you’re eating healthy but calories may be
finding methods to work their way into your body. When you have a healthy green
salad but dunk all those veggies in salad dressing, for example, that’s a way
for your calorie count to increase. Also, watch out for liquid calories such as
milk and sweetened beverages! Drink up! Chug down some water at least half an
hour before every meal. This helps cut down your appetite and prevents you from
reaching out for those second helpings. Stock up on soluble fibre sources such
as oats, apples, figs, pears, carrots, strawberries, and so on. Most of these
make for healthy snacks that will fill you up quickly and aid in digestion. Eat
at home during all the days leading up to Valentine’s Day. Food served in
restaurants, although yummy, will contain plenty of ingredients that you’re
probably trying to avoid. At home, you can cook and eat consciously, as per your
preference. Get active! Exercise is obviously important but one hour of aerobics
or Zumba is not all that you need. Make conscious decisions such as using the
staircase instead of the elevator or walking a couple of rounds around your
building before you run up home. The best part is that these little things, if
carried on for a while, will become an ingrained habit for you, benefitting your
health in the long run as well! Another thing you can indulge in is facial
exercises to get rid of facial fat. Simple things like head-and-neck rotations,
sticking out a pout for at least 10 to 15 seconds, making the ‘smiling fish
face’ expression (suck in your cheeks and lips while maintaining a normal
posture with your head and shoulders, try to smile, and hold that pose for a
couple of seconds), mimicking the act of blowing balloons, chewing gum and so on
are great ways to get your facial muscles to move about. And the best exercise
of them all? A constant smile! Get some shut-eye. Your body needs time to
process everything that’s gone into it during the day, and lack of sleep can
mess up the levels of your ‘hunger’ hormones, causing you to feel excessively
hungry. The above tips, if followed to the T, are sure to bring about a
difference to the way you look and feel in just a couple of days. And come
Valentine’s Day, with your glowing skin, healthy hair, and a spring in your step
from feeling fit, you’re going to look like a delight! Also Read: What to Wear

A. Hello there ma’am please do not worry about it too much. Please take
Shatavari powder with milk twice a day to increase breast milk supply. Also feed
the baby often which also helps in increasing breast milk supply. Masaage your
breasts gently before feeding the baby. You can also use breast pump to take out
milk which also helps in production of breast milk. Thanks and take care

A. Hello there ma’am please do not worry about it too much. It is advisable to
feed the baby in a proper upright position. Please massage baby stomach with
BabyHug coconut oil clockwise and anti-clockwise. You can also apply hing water
on baby stomach. Also do some cycling leg exercises of the baby to relieve from
constipation and gas. Please make the baby burp after every feed. Mother should
chew saunf and ajwain after every meal. Thanks and take care

A. There should not be any foul smell in your discharge and if it is there than
it is likely that you’re having infection and it is better that you consult your
gynecologist to get it treated appropriately.

A. A baby born at 36 weeks is considered "late preterm" and is typically safe to
deliver, though there may be some risks compared to full-term births. At 36
weeks, most babies have developed most of their organs, but they may still face
challenges such as difficulty feeding, regulating body temperature, or
breathing. It’s important to monitor the baby's health closely after birth, and
delivery at this stage is usually only recommended if there are medical reasons
or complications. Consulting with your healthcare provider can help assess the
risks and make an informed decision.

A. If there were no high-risk factors, complicating pregnancy, then we can do
anything and give trial for everything. But high blood pressure, especially for
uncontrolled Bp it is very dangerous so kindly follow whatever your doctor is
suggesting
