  • iUniv Insider’s Diary: February 10, 2012

    Hello from Inside! 
    Many regions including Japan is suffering from cold winter with lots of snow.  Hope you have been well.  It’s so cold that Insider has excuses to stay Inside!  Sorry for not saying hello for weeks.

    In the meantime, we were featuring “Reproduction Medicine” on the iUniv home page.  The theme was inspired from a TV documentary about a Japanese diet member and her son, which had been aired last month.  Those who had actually seen the program would surely have different opinions, but on this feature on iUniv, we did not want to focus on whether reproduction medicine is a Do or a Don’t.  We just wanted to see what kinds of treatments are taking place today. 

    (By the way, there was one featured content whose title sounded like having something to do with reproduction medicine, but actually not.  Insider apologizes for the confusion.  The audio ”Sex, Reproduction and Marriage Part I” is more like an anthropological content, comparing human beings with animals, one ethnic group with another, and so on.)

    Infertility - Advances in Treatment (Part 1)
    http://iuniv.tv/top/episode/eid/29541/pid/2354
    This is the first of the series that focuses on the advancements in fertility treatment.  It was a little surprising to find out that male infertility is quite more common than Insider thought.  This Part 1 describes the reasons of infertility, what would have risks to become infertile, and the methods of infertility test.

    This one is quite similar to the aforementioned audio.
    Insider learnt that some advanced fertility treatments are done not only to revive the patient’s fertility, but also to maintain the cancer patients’ dreams to have a family by freezing the fertilized egg, the egg itself, or the sperms, before they go into chemotherapy.

    Hope for ending the pain, infertility of endometriosis?

    This audio focuses on endometriosis, one of the risky conditions.

    These contents, although they are themed on reproduction medicine, include tips on daily health care from time to time.  They are highly recommendable not only to women but also to men.  

    Enjoy!
