Pretty Mommies Explains Why their Pregnancy Skin Care Line is Now Becoming Popular with Oncology Patients

Orlando, FL (PRWEB) May 09, 2013

It is no surprise that pregnancy and nursing skin care products are held to a higher standard of safety. This is due to the fact that many recent studies have shown some serious concerns with a large variety of cosmetic ingredients. Some ingredients have proven to show reproductive and developmental toxicity along with birth defects, as well as being known carcinogens (cancer causing agents). They can also cause estrogenic activity which can be dangerous if expecting.

Skin care needs of pregnant women and oncology patients are very similar. Pregnancy, chemotherapy and radiation bring about some of the same skin issues and conditions such as sensitivity, irritation and dry skin. It is also imperative that expecting moms and cancer patients use clean and safe ingredients.

Our products were developed for a very specific target market, explains Gina Zeiger - President/Founder of Pretty Mommies, an all natural maternity skin care line. When we launched, we set out to be the new standard in pregnancy and nursing skin care and to become the first physician maternity skin care line. What we didnt realize at the time was how appealing our line was going to be to many other consumers outside of our particular demographic, specifically cancer patients.

Oncology patients require a skin care line that essentially mirrors a pregnancy line - clean, all natural, free of estrogenic activity, contains soothing and anti-inflammatory properties, etc Pretty Mommies products fit this profile perfectly, so the crossover from maternity skin care to oncology skin care then becomes apparent, concludes Zeiger.

Being a Medical Aesthetician I am very conscientious of the products we carry in our skin care center. We find that Pretty Mommies is a great fit for not only expecting women but is also a safe and effective skin care system for our oncology clients, states Tricia Schaefer, Oncology Skincare Specialist with truespa Skin Care Center in Palmerton, PA.

Frequency of Ectopic Pregnancy Misdiagnosis an On-going Issue Asons Solicitors Comment.

Bolton, UK (PRWEB UK) 9 May 2013

A recent news report from the BBC "Peterborough Hospital Accused of Diagnosis Faliure" (Dated - 23/04/2013) highlights that ectopic pregnancy misdiagnosis is still considered to be an on-going issue. Occurring in around one in ninety pregnancies (1), suspected ectopic pregnancies are a serious cause for concern, requiring immediate medical attention.

According to NHS Choices, an ectopic pregnancy can simply be described as an Out-of-Place Pregnancy.' Rather than developing normally within the womb a fertilised egg implants elsewhere, commonly within the fallopian tubes. Under these circumstances, the egg will not develop into a baby as normal, with potentially devastating physical and psychological effects to the mother.

As made clear by NHS Choices, in all cases the continuation of an ectopic pregnancy would be catastrophic. If left to develop the fertilised egg would continue to grow, causing the fallopian tube to rupture, splitting open and causing potentially fatal internal bleeding (1).

According to the BBC, doctors failed to diagnose the ectopic pregnancy of Mrs Soper, sending her home, only to have her return the following day for emergency surgery (2).

As reported by the BBC, Mrs Sopers emergency surgery led to her contracting the flesh eating infection necrotising fasciitis, a rare infection of the deeper layers of the skin, that causes the destruction of skin and muscles by releasing toxins. (3) If left untreated, necrotizing fasciitis can be fatal. As reported by the BBC, had her ectopic pregnancy been diagnosed correctly, Mrs Soper could have been treated using less invasive methods, avoiding the undesirable complications she developed (2).

Asons executive Laura Williams, commented of the report

Ectopic Pregnancies are frequently misdiagnosed. A delay to diagnosis can be far reaching. The effects of an ectopic rupture are not just limited to health, but damage to a fallopian tube can be to the detriment of fertility.

Making a mis-diagnosed ectopic pregnancy claim with a legal professional helps to raise awareness, hopefully preventing it from happening to someone else.

The important thing to bear in mind is that if you suspect you may be suffering from an ectopic pregnancy, you should seek urgent medical treatment.

If you have been affected by a delay in diagnosis or treatment for an ectopic pregnancy you should speak to an experienced medical negligence solicitor. They can provide expert advice whilst building a compelling ectopic pregnancy claim case, to achieve the damages you deserve for your sub-standard care.

hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diets and Weight Loss Plans Announce Medically Supervised Diet Plans Designed To Promote A Healthy Pregnancy By Losing Dangerous Excess Fat

Dallas, TX (PRWEB) April 15, 2013

Studies published in volume 83, issue 11 of the journal "Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica", show that obesity can pose an increased risk for countless gynecological problems in women, especially those within childbearing age. Excess body fat can lead to infertility and even miscarriage. In addition to causing menstrual disorders, obesity lends a strong detrimental effect on the health of expectant mothers, as well as the newborn, and is associated with an increased risk of death in both the baby and the mother with the mother at 10 times higher risk of high blood pressure. Expectant mothers who are obese are more likely to develop gestational diabetes, toxemia and undergo forced Cesarean section delivery, as well as overdue births, longer labors and blood loss during delivery. Infants of women who are obese during an otherwise healthy pregnancy are more likely to be of high birth weight carrying a higher rate of forced Cesarean section delivery as well as increasing the risk for birth defects in the newborn, such as spina bifida. These same studies show that women that lose as little as 10% of their body weight are effective in improving menstrual regularity, ovulation and enjoying a healthy pregnancy. Whether for women attempting weight loss for a healthy pregnancy, or those trying to lose post birth baby weight, Diet Doc can develop personalized hCG diet plans tailored around each patients individual needs.

Diet Doc has created the nations leading medically monitored hCG diet plans that are proven effective in producing safe and fast weight loss, garnering improved health for all patients. By combining decades of scientific fast weight loss research, the knowledge and expertise of specially trained professionals, creating patient specific, medically supervised diet plans and providing dieters with pure prescription hCG, women are excitedly boasting results of over one pound per day of unhealthy excess fat loss.

Upon completion of an extensive evaluation conducted wither via telephone or Skype, followed by a consultation with a Diet Doc physician, certified nutritionists will then design personalized, tailor made hCG diet plans specific to each womans individual dietary and nutritional needs. Prescription hCG will be dispensed, which is typically administered once daily, while following the customized hCG diet plans. Injectable prescription hCG is the most preferred method of delivery; however, some patients may prefer sublingual tablets or oral prescription hCG drops. Regardless of the mode of delivery, women can anticipate the rapid loss of excess fat, typically in the most stubborn and difficult to lose areas, such as the underarms, hips, thighs and belly. Patients will notice impressively fast weight loss, usually within the first week of beginning the hCG diet plans, with most patients achieving weight loss goals within one to five cycles, each lasting a month. Each womans diet experience is medically supervised and progress is monitored with constant communication to assure a safe and successful weight loss journey.
