Moroccanoil Ingredients

The quantity of Moroccan Oil needed depends on the texture and volume of the hair: Highlighted hair will need more rather than less Moroccanoil. Virgin or untreated hair needs the least amount of Moroccanoil- perhaps a dime shaped amount rubbed into the palms and then through the hair.

When your ovaries stop producing the hormone oestrogen at the end of your reproductive years (usually around the age of 50), you enter the menopause, or ‘the change’. Strictly speaking, the menopause is the date of your last period, but most people use the term to refer to the time around your last period, which may last for a few years.

The drop in hormone levels can cause a host of symptoms, both psychological and physical, and so many women find that the menopause isn’t the easiest time in their lives, which hardly seems fair: after coping with monthly periods and perhaps childbirth, even the end of your reproductive years may not come easy. Saying that, the situation isn’t all doom and gloom – many women ‘sail’ through the menopause without any major problems.

Here’s a list of some common menopausal symptoms:

• A burning sensation and itching in your genital area.
• Changes to your skin.
• Changes to your periods, which eventually stop altogether.
• Dryness and persistent discomfort in your vagina.
• General irritation, anxiety, forgetfulness and symptoms of depression.
• Hot flushes and night sweats.
• Loss of libido.
• Migraines.
• Pain during sexual intercourse because of lack of lubrication.

Many women find talking about some of these menopausal symptoms difficult, and suffer in silence. If you suffer from any such menopausal symptoms, you feel you’re entering the menopause early (called premature menopause) or you have any other concerns, do see your GP because various treatments are available that can improve or get rid of your symptoms. Options include topical hormone preparations and oral hormone replacement therapy (HRT). You may need continued treatment for quite a while for it to be effective.

Breast cancer is a common cancer in women. you need more understand symptoms of breast cancer, which means that you know how your breasts normally feel. Most breast lumps aren’t due to breast cancer, but do get any new and persistent lump checked by your GP. Remember that you can also get breast cancer if you’re a man. Breast cancer in men is very rare (about 100 times rarer than in women), but if you notice a lump, see your GP. Saying that, breast lumps behind the nipple area are common in teenage boys and are due to hormonal reasons. These settle by themselves and are completely harmless.

Breast cancer – where a cancer is confined to the breast or the surrounding areas such as the lymph nodes under the arms – is the most common cancer affecting women. The problem with breast cancer – as indeed with many other cancers – is that it can spread to other areas of your body (known as invasive breast cancer). Various forms of breast cancer exist – some more serious than others – and it can have many causes, including gene abnormalities and raised hormone levels in the blood. You’re at an increased risk of developing breast cancer the older you get, or if close relatives of yours suffer from breast cancer.

Women over the age of 50 in the US are offered regular X-ray checks (called a mammography) to try and detect cancer early on. Women under 50 aren’t currently offered a mammography – cancer in younger women is rarer and more difficult to detect through mammography because of denser breast tissue before they go through the menopause .

How effective is it?

Doctors like to have proof in the form of medical studies that the drugs are effective and work as advertised. But this process takes ten years or more after a drug has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and comes onto the market, and many of the drugs in this chapter have been around for only a few years. Drug manufacturers often claim that a new drug in the same class as a proven old drug should work the same. However, the new drug may produce side effects that only become apparent after years of use on thousands of people. So you always have to be wary.
