6. Avoid risky substances
Alcoholic beverages, tobacco, and drugs consumed during pregnancy is prohibited.
According to Dr. Tjahaya, women who had an abortion can get pregnant again. How do I?
"You do this by doing a number of tests before pregnancy. As a full blood screening and viral plus hormonal," he explained.
The goal is to find the cause of abortion, and to find out if there is infection, it can be cured or treated.
A pregnant woman had to be rushed to the Hospital Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo after drinking stamina enhancer, on Thursday (6/10/2011) morning. As a result of the incident that threatened autumn mother's womb.

While pregnant, usually the people around us gives good suggestions so that the mother is pregnant stay healthy and happy during pregnancy, and could give birth to babies who are also healthy in the end. But unfortunately, not all of the advice is entirely correct.
Well here are some suggestions about pregnancy that you need to see and find the truth:
1. Pregnant = Eating for two people
It's true, you will eat during pregnancy to baby yourself and also in the womb. However, that does not mean you necessarily should eat a lot of servings for two people. There are more important than just serving food, which is nutrient-rich food choices, so that everything will be beneficial to you and your baby.
With the right food choices, automatically your weight during pregnancy will not jump like crazy. Moreover, the experts actually "only" allow an increase of 11-15 kg during pregnancy. Therefore, the weight is up too much will make you more at risk of high blood pressure, so it will be harmful to the newborn baby at birth and also the process later.
2. Should pregnant = lots of rest
While pregnant, there are some physical activity that you may need to subtract. However, that does not mean you necessarily just a nap at home or sitting in an office. The doctors still recommend you to move around (but not through high intensity exercise). The goal is that it can prevent excessive weight gain, help you sleep more soundly, and reduce other problems that often arise during pregnancy, such as low back pain, swelling, and constipation. Because of that, try to discuss your exercise plans with your doctor so the results can be useful at the same time not harm you during pregnancy.
3. Should pregnant = lots of drinking milk
Calcium intake of 1,000 mg per day can help strengthen bones. Everyday, we rarely can sufficient numbers. While so pregnant, our calcium needs also increase. That's why, you begin to add a high intake of calcium by drinking milk. It's not wrong, but actually there are other ways that can help us to achieve it. That is by eating a variety of natural foods which are also rich in calcium. We can get it from vegetables, dark green vegetables, fish, and fruits. So, not only with milk ya!

Many women who have a hobby of maintaining a pet in the house, call it a cat. For normal conditions may be legitimate cats. But what if there are women who are pregnant and at home was also a pet cat?
According to Dr. Nasrudin SpOG, pets, including cats that many associated with Toxo infection in women with infertility and those who are pregnant. But not all cats have toxo.
"If this animal was maintained and clean, rest assured that the cat does not carry toxo germs. But to be sure: good mothers do check ups and examinations Toxo," said a specialist gynecologist who is also Deputy Dean of the Faculty of Medicine III University Muslim Indonesia Makassar.
Toxo infection Nasrudin said, very influential in pregnancy and the fetus, especially if the pregnancy is still in the third trimester.
Can pregnant women have sex? This question is often haunt the couple. In fact, not infrequently the couple did not have sexual intercourse during the wife's pregnancy because of fear is actually unfounded. We need also to know the ban - a ban for pregnant women.
According to andrology and sexology expert, Prof. Dr. dr. Wimpie Pangkahila, sexual intercourse during pregnancy remains permissible. "But, in the first three months of pregnancy, frequency of sexual intercourse should not be done as often as usual," said researcher in the field of human reproduction and sexuality. Because, if forced sexual relations during the first three months of pregnancy, spontaneous miscarriage feared could happen.
In addition to the first three months of pregnancy, couples should also be more careful in sexual intercourse during the three months prior to the time of delivery. Because, according to Wimpie, premature birth is feared happened.
Indeed, further Wimpie further, miscarriages can be caused by many things. For example, because of trauma to the abdomen, illness, or because of minor things like a lack of good nutrition. In addition, miscarriage can also occur due to muscle spasms of the uterus. Well, the uterine muscle spasms can occur due to collisions, for example due to falls. On the other hand, the uterine muscle spasms can also occur due to sexual relations.
Kok, can? "By the time women reach orgasm, there was twitching of muscles throughout the body, including muscles of the uterus. Well, muscle spasms of the uterus that is too strong this can result in miscarriage. Not infrequently, the woman who was pregnant bleeding after intercourse," explains Professor at Faculty of Medicine, Udayana University Bali.
Further explained Dr. Judi Januadi Endjun, SpOG of Gatot Subroto Army Hospital, "In the womb vessels are blood vessels that go into the placenta. This Blood vessels that supplies oxygen to the baby. Well, when a woman an orgasm, the blood vessels are pinched. As a result, supply concerns oxygen to the baby will be retarded. " But, he continued, during which there was prolonged contraction, there's nothing to worry about.
For this reason, women who have had miscarriages are also advised to be more careful sexual intercourse during pregnancy. "In fact, if possible be avoided," advises Wimpie.
That need to be considered by the husband-wife sexual relationship is not able to be done only in the interest of either party. Whether it's the husband or the wife alone. That way, it is important for couples to set when during intercourse. In other words, adapted to the condition of the couple.
When his wife is pregnant, of which more thought is the condition of the woman. Men should be aware, women also have sexual urges. Husband also should know, when pregnant, women feel the burden. These loads can result in two things. Maybe it could reduce the burden of sexual drive or actually even increase sexual drive.
Usually, when a young pregnant, some women will lose their sexual drive. Especially for young pregnant women who during pregnancy had side effects, such as excessive vomiting, no appetite or increased blood pressure. Well, normally under such conditions, women's sex drive is inhibited.
But, at some other women, sex drive actually increases during pregnancy young age. This is usually experienced by women who remained healthy and did not experience the effects of pregnancy such as those experienced by some other pregnant women.
As long as they're healthy condition, never experienced vomiting, good appetite, and normal blood pressure, pregnant women sex drive usually will remain or even increase. Increased sex drive is because the blood flow to the vagina more and more, so that women feel the warmth in her vagina.
JAKARTA - poor nutrition during pregnancy and preparation for pregnancy affect fetal growth and development and will have a negative impact on later health.
In Indonesia found some health problems in pregnant women include anemia during pregnancy, postpartum anemia, low body weight and Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED).
"The condition of anemia and chronic energy deficiency in pregnant women having an impact on the health of mother and child in the womb, among others, increasing the risk of infants with asphyxia or respiratory distress, low birth weight, miscarriage, premature birth to maternal and infant mortality. Anemia and KEK main cause occurrence of bleeding, long parturition, abortion and infection, "said dr. Damar Prasmusinto, SpOG (K) of the Division of Fetomaternal RSCM / Faculty of medicine.
Resin, the informant in the media talk show Nutritalk V: Nutrition During Pregnancy and Save the Mother of Nations Successor Generation Sari Husada held in Jakarta, Tuesday (01/17/2012) says Damar, about 55 percent of Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) due to bleeding and pre -eclampsia is also closely associated with malnutrition (poor nutrition during pregnancy).
"Pregnant women at risk of malnutrition, low birth weight babies are at risk of having a low IQ and no optimal growth and development with. It will be risky against the continuation of the quality of the next generation," he said.
Patterns of nutrient imbalance in pregnant women is salahsatunya caused by a lack of adequate nutrition education for pregnant women and also the relatively low levels of the economy that affect the ability to generate or obtain sufficient food and have a good nutritional quality.
Meanwhile, the most important components of nutrition that should be taken to avoid disturbances in pregnant women and infants.
"The process for growing fetus needs complete nutrition in accordance with the stage of growth that is being lived out of necessity nutrient intake will be increased according to gestational age," said Yeni Fatmawati, Corporate Affairs and Legal Director, Sari Husada.

Drugs to increase sperm count is given when known cause of low sperm counts.
In general, the examination will be conducted levels of reproductive hormones such as Testosterone in advance. Also the level of sperm fluid acidity (pH) and if necessary also examined the scrotal tissue as 'sperm factories'. It is recommended that you consult the Fertility Clinic with Specialist Andrology. Because after a complete examination can only be given the right solution.

Jakarta, the worms can live in the human body and takes nutrients from the body. This incident is referred to as worms and harm the body, can even result in death. However, a recent study found that the worm could be useful to treat lung disease and heal wounds.
Parasitic worms in the intestine has infected more than one billion people around the world and kill hundreds of millions of people per year. However, worms can also trigger the performance of an essential element in the immune system responsible for repairing damaged tissue and reduces inflammation.
"This live worms can be used someday to treat serious lung injury caused by respiratory infections, like pneumonia," said the researcher, William Gause of the New Jersey Medical School in Newark, New Jersey
Gause and colleagues studied worms in rodents called Nippostrongylus brasiliensis. This worm is similar to the hookworm that infects more than 700 million people, mainly in developing countries. The life cycle of N. brasiliensis worms are similar to mine.
Worm entered the host's body through the skin, usually on foot, or make contact with the worm larvae in the feces contained in the mud or water. Larvae flow in the circulatory system to the lungs, through trachea or throat, swallowed in the esophagus and then go from the stomach into the small intestine, where the larvae grow into worms and deploy millions of eggs.
Severe organ damage induced this worm is the lung. In the process of evolution, the human body has developed a unique way to minimize the damage done by the hookworm and the like.
Tim Gause found in the immune system proteins called cytokines. This protein helps expel intestinal worms in the lungs of mice and also trigger healing.
Cytokinins to mobilize the various elements of the immune system to reduce inflammation, cleanse contagious germs, while stimulating protein and other growth factors in order to quickly fix the lung tissue is damaged.
In a research report published journal Nature Medicine, Gause said that what happened to the bodies of mice caused by N. brasiliensis can also occur in humans exposed to parasitic worms. If so, these worms can be more effective in triggering the immune response to heal the body from the inside as compared with drugs.
"Worms enhance wound healing response, preventing harmful inflammation, and wound repair. This mechanism may be the result of evolution in the host's body to reduce the harmful effects of tissue damage which is quite dangerous due to multicellular parasites that can migrate through vital organs. In this , parasites can be used to treat acute lung injury, "Gause said as quoted by LiveScience, Monday (16/01/2012).
Use of parasitic worms or worms to treat immune disorders and so-called worm therapy is not new. Research on the use of live worms to treat several inflammatory and autoimmune disorders such as Crohn's disease are underway.
This study used a non-human parasites, which most often is a worm Trichuris suis, a kind of whip worms in pigs.
Northumberland, England, One of the treatments currently being developed is stem cells (stem cells). A boy is diagnosed with blood cancer now have a hope of recovery thanks to stem cells from his sister.
Nathan Shorey (3 years) were diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in 2010 and requires a stem cell transplant to prevent the condition in order not to worsen.
"When we were told that Nathan suffered from leukemia, it was the saddest moment for us," said the mother, Melanie (34 years), as quoted from Dailymail, Monday (16/01/2012).
Nathan's parents, Melanie and Michael (36 years) is now very much hope that stem cells obtained from his brother, Samuel Nathan can help treat the condition for the better.
"Stem cells from Samuel has been tested and found suitable for Nathan, so that these stem cells can be used to help treat Nathan. And I am very lucky to have another baby," says Melanie.
Nathan was first taken to Wansbeck General Hospital after his mother noticed a rash on the boy's thigh and arm. He also underwent a series of tests and should be treated overnight before being transferred to North Tyneside General Hospital and was diagnosed with leukemia.
During the first 6 months after diagnosis he spent most of his time in hospital and undergoing chemotherapy treatment. But the birth of Samuel as provide great hope for him to recover.
Nathan is currently in a state condition is fine, and families still try to always be optimistic and positive. Although there are concerns in the minds of his parents that the condition could recur again.
"The possibility of a recurrence of Nathan's condition was considered to be low, but I felt it was doing the right thing that the stem cell treatment can be obtained from the umbilical cord Samuel," he said.
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia is a type of blood cancer that attacks the spinal cord tissue in which blood cells are made. This disease is rapid and affects the blood cells are immature.
This type of leukemia is a cancer that most commonly affects children, although it can also affect adults. One fairly effective treatment for this condition is a bone marrow transplant.
Jakarta, the body has a biological clock which controls the body what to do naturally. Set when the body's biological clock had to rest, need food or other activities conducted for 24 hours. Damage to the biological clock can damage the brain.
For the first time, scientists at Oregon State University found that disruption of the biological clock could accelerate brain cell damage, loss of motor function and premature death.
"Currently, many researchers are interested in the study of the biological clock or circadian rhythm, so also we are interested in learning about the various problems that can occur when the biological clock disrupted. In the end, we hope that this research can be taken from the laboratory and applied in the life real, "said the researcher, as reported by Rakshit Kuntol Scienceagogo.com, Monday (01/16/2012).
The study, published in the journal Neurobiology of Disease is done on fruit flies because it has some similarity with human genes. Several genes that regulate circadian rhythms in fruit flies have in common with humans, although it has gone through the process of evolution millions of years.
Biological clock in humans and other animals affect various biological processes, from fertility to the production of hormones, diet, DNA repair, sleep, stress reactions and even the effectiveness of the drug. In humans, researchers have found a strong relationship between the mechanisms of biological clocks are disrupted by aging and neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (severe memory loss).
Fruit flies used in this study has undergone two mutations, one of the mutations disrupt circadian rhythms and other mutations cause the fly to have the disease because of the aging brain.
Double mutant flies have a lifespan of 32-50 percent shorter, loss of motor function and experienced a lot of vacuoles (holes in the brain) is much faster than a fly with a good biological clock. The researchers speculate that disruption of the biological clock that caused the damaging effects.
"The decline and loss of function of the biological clock may be just the beginning of a cycle of destructive processes. When the biological clock starts to break down, rhythms that regulate cell function and health to be impaired and we now know that this triggers nerve cell damage in the brain, which can lead to more much damage to the biological clock function, "explains co-researcher, Jadwiga Giebultowicz.
The researchers believe that a healthy biological clock may help protect against this damage.
"When the biological clock is broken, the damage process is accelerated. The aging process is closely related to this process, but it was unclear how the process is. Find a way to restore the biological clock could be a therapy to prevent damage to the biological clock and help prevent the progression of the disease," said Giebultowicz.
Jakarta, The man known impressionable women. Not only responding quickly things smell erotic, men can also be losing my mind when looking at erotic pictures. That is why on-site casino, the owners display super sexy women to lure men are more daring to risk his property.
Researchers from Stanford University have found that when men view images of erotic, a brain area associated with the hope of stimuli. This causes a man willing to take greater risks than they can afford.
The study, published in the journal NeuroReport uses fMRI brain scans to track brain changes when participants looked at photographs of positive, negative or neutral. Participants were then asked to quickly make the decision to choose one of two risks in gambling.
The researcher, Brian Knutson, suggesting that fMRI can be used to predict whether the person will take the risk or not. When taking a risk, a brain area called the nucleus accumbens showed increased activity. When choosing to avoid the risk, a different area called the insula showed an increase.
Knutson and his colleagues studied heterosexual male students. Photos of men are shown to stimulate an emotional response, erotic photographs are used to stimulate a positive response, pictures of snakes and spiders to ask for a negative response, and photographs of office supplies to trigger a neutral response.
After viewing each photograph, participants were asked to decide whether to choose a high-risk gambling or choose low-risk gambling. Regardless of the choice, they have a chance of winning or losing are equal. Knutson give every person U.S. $ 10 for the gambling capital before entering the fMRI scanner.
"We want them to really consider it. Depending on the capabilities and results of random gamble, they could win or lose. We take the money back if they lose," said Knutson.
"When looking at erotic pictures, activities in the area of the nucleus accumbens increased compared with other stimuli. Increased activity in the area before choosing to do high-risk gambling," Knutson said as quoted altpenis.com, Monday (16/01/2012).
The researchers then apply statistical analysis to determine whether the activation in the nucleus accumbens affect some particular behavior. It turns out that activation of a positive effect on the stimulation. After looking at erotic pictures, participants tend to be more frequent high-risk gambling.
These findings clarify anything that may cause emotional appeal to be effective or not effective in advertising, political campaigns, and gambling.
"In the casino, mostly women wearing skimpy costumes, were given alcohol for free, plus accessories bells, lights and things that seem unrelated to gambling. All of this can activate brain regions that encourage people to take risks, so as to make people gamble more and again, "said Knutson.
Jakarta, Every human being must have their sexual desires, but on certain conditions sometimes sexual desire can not be channeled properly, especially for singles. What are the effects that arise if this desire unfulfilled?
According to experts, sex, sexual desire no more signals to pass through affecting the psychological (mental) rather than physical. Because physically unfulfilled sexual desire does not lead to a particular disease.
"The physical health conditions are not intrusive and does not hurt," said Dr. Nugroho Setiawan, spand, sexologists from RS Fatmawati, when contacted detikHealth, Monday (01/16/2012).
But psychologically the effect that appears depends on the person's temperament or character. If the person is indeed fierce temper or any desires must be fulfilled, then he can get angry if his sexual desires unfulfilled.
But if the nature or character of the person, including a patient and understanding, then he will accept the conditions and do not cause adverse effects to himself.
"If it really wanted to, could be channeled through exercise, prayer or to masturbate, it has a solution. Just do not do it with a neighbor or a friend's office," he said.
Dr. Nugroho expressing this is to distinguish between humans and animals. Humans have a sense that he could thinker what to do, while the animals have no sense, so if it appears directly acted sexual desire.
"So if a couple had to be harmonized in order to be controlled. If the house is not in harmony it could be a problem, for example he gave his friend a story and empathy could be harmful, except if it would just want to," said Dr. Nugroho.
Unfulfilled sexual desires sometimes cause discomfort, but if someone can control any discomfort that then this condition will not cause trouble or hurt himself.
Jakarta, the Malaria Vaccine until now no one has managed alias always fail. Though the vaccine is needed to prevent the severity of malaria in many countries which sometimes cause death. But the development of new malaria vaccine trial shows promising results.
Every year, worldwide there are approximately 225 million people suffer from malaria with a mortality rate of about 800,000 souls, especially in children in Africa.
Malaria is caused by a parasite called Plasmodium, which is transmitted through the bite of an infected mosquito. In the human body, the parasites multiply in the liver and then infect red blood cells.
Appropriate and effective treatment for malaria is artemisinin-based combination therapy. However, malaria prevention is better when compared with treatment of the disease then it continues to manufacture the vaccine cultivated.
Latest news from malaria vaccine trials have shown promising results in clinical trials in Africa. In that trial, infants who were given vaccine prototypes can reduce about half the risk of contracting malaria compared with infants who are not vaccinated.
The vaccine, known as RTS, S is one of two experimental malaria vaccine being tested around the world. The study was conducted for 1 year and has involved more than 15,000 children under the age of 18 months. The study has been published in The New England Journal of Medicine.
Malaria vaccine trials have been conducted in 7 countries in Africa. In the present study has been divided into 2 groups of infants aged 6-12 weeks and 5-17 months old baby.
One year later, there were about half the number of malaria cases in the group of children given the vaccine, compared with children in the control group who received vaccines for other diseases.
"Data from these studies indicate that it has discovered the world's first malaria vaccine," said Andrew Witty, head of the British pharmaceutical company as reported from BBCNewsHealth, Wednesday (10/19/2011).
The vaccine has been developed together with non-profit PATH Malaria Vaccine Initiative. In the malaria vaccine research has involved an international team consisting of dozens of scientists from Africa, the United States and Europe.
"Early results show that RTS, S/AS01 lower half the risk of malaria in children aged 5-17 months for 12 months after vaccination. In addition, the vaccine has the potential to have an important impact on the eradication of malaria in children in Africa," said the the researcher.
The results of the vaccine in younger infants still be analyzed. World health experts say the vaccine is less effective when compared with other vaccines for common infections such as polio and measles, and the cost of a malaria vaccine is also not clear.
Tsiri Agbenyega, a principal investigator of vaccine trials in Ghana, said the malaria vaccine will contribute to the control of malaria than not using the vaccine at all.
World Health Organization (WHO) declared the progress made in malaria vaccine development, including extraordinary to be able to combat the disease. With the use of vakin malaria can occur nearly 20 percent decline in the number of deaths worldwide over the last 10 years.
An examination and discussion of other potential vaccines have recently shown promising results. Testing and discussion is designed to test security.
But researchers found that 45 children given the vaccine MSP3 has a high level of protection against the disease. Test results and discussion in Burkina Faso have also been published in The New England Journal of Medicine.
Research malaria vaccine RTS, S was funded by GSK and the PATH Malaria Vaccine Initiative, and assisted by a donation from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundati
Jakarta, not much is left to cure malaria, most of whom were no longer effective because the bacteria more resistant. Alternative new drugs actually found by an expert on plants, ie, by utilizing drugs weed exterminator.
Herbicides or weed killers drug typically used by farmers to compete with (kill) weeds in the fields. In the future, not only the herbicide to eradicate weeds but it is very likely used as a malaria drug.
Prof Geoff McFadden, a botanist from the University of Melbourne has developed an alternative new drugs for malaria of herbicides commonly used by farmers. In the last 10 years, he managed to modify the herbicide so new drugs for malaria.
This innovation is based on the 1996 study had revealed that the Plasmodium falciparum (Malaria-causing germs) have a common ancestor with plants. Meaning is not some kind of animal germs as expected during this time, but more closely related to plants.
"There are 500 genetic similarity between Plasmodium with algal ancestors. For this we make a new target for treating malaria with herbicides, the price is very cheap," explained Prof. McFadden in a public lecture at the Australian Embassy, Brass, Wednesday (09/11/2011) .
Currently, new drugs for malaria has entered the final stages of research. Various laboratory tests have proven the effectiveness and safety, but Prof. McFadden estimate masoih took a while to be used in humans.
Medicines for Malaria last start was efficacious
President of the Academy of Sciences of Indonesia, Prof. Sangkot Marzuki, MD, PhD, DSc recognized the need for new drugs for malaria is very urgent. Quinine pill has become the past, began many germs that are immune to it and can almost be said to not work anymore.
The only cure for Malaria is left Artemisinin, which is often given in combination ACTs (Artemisinin-Combination Therapies). Although there is still a potent drug, if the new drug artemisinin is not immediately found it in the long run this will not work anymore.
"If it is said malaria drugs run out, not depleted because there Artemisinin. But it is a serious concern because at the border of Cambodia and Thailand have reported Malaria germs that are resistant (immune) to this drug," says Prof. Sangkot.
Related to new drugs being developed Prof. McFadden of herbicide materials, Prof. Sangkot provide good reception and ready to work with. According to thiolactomycin type herbicides are very inexpensive and allows for mass-produced, of course, if there is support from the pharma industry
Jakarta, There are many ways to combat mosquito-borne diseases, including malaria and dengue fever. Creating a modified mosquitoes resistant disease is one of them, but the most practical way fixed by installing netting.
Some scientists in the world has a lot to create modifications or genetically modified mosquitoes mosquito. This type of modification may range from a sterile male mosquitoes to mosquito cannibals who could prey on fellow mosquito population so depleted over time.
A botanist from the University of Melbourne are often researching Malaria, Prof Geoff McFadden confirmed that there are many things you can do with the modification of mosquitoes. One is, creating a resistant parasite that mosquitoes do not transmit the disease.
Nevertheless, Prof. McFadden assess such research takes a long time that it took another way which provides a solution more quickly. There are many ways you can give the same result, namely controlling the mosquito population.
"A lot more simple ways such as by preventing mosquito breeding. Or the most simple way to prevent disease, do not get bitten by using mosquito nets for example," said Prof. McFadden after giving a public lecture at the Australian Embassy, Brass, Jakarta, Wednesday (9 / 11/2011).
Although including a very old disease, malaria is still a threat, especially in the tropics. It is estimated that each year there are about 1 million deaths from malaria, while the recorded cases of transmission around 500 million people each year.
Another threat is the latest discovery of new drugs to treat this disease. The most popular drug Quinine pills that almost was not working anymore, while the only remaining drug that is Artemisinin (ACT / Artemisinin-Combination Therapies) reportedly began to be immune in some cases on the border of Cambodia and Thailand.
