I would be remiss if I didn’t admit that this well-received monthly feature seems to have fallen off Flashfree post list. So, as of today, I am officially reviving it. Rather than list four month’s worth of  highlights, I’ve decided to pick and choose a few favourites so you don’t miss anything. Still, my mind isn’t yours’ so feel free to peruse the monthly archives.

Without further ado…

• Female viagra hits a new low in the bedroom. Hypoactive sexual desire disorder is real to many women, who suffering from reduced libido and interest. But can a pill address the underlying issues, such as emotions, relationships, environment and hormones?
• HRT – Wait a moment! Stopping hormone replacement might be bad for your menopause. In fact, it appears that symptoms might suddenly appear out of nowhere.
• When it comes to calcium, think moderation. Women need calcium and vitamin D as they age. But too much of a good thing may be dangerous.
• That ole glass ceiling still isn’t cracked. Want a raise? Some individuals would have you believe that you should let your femininity drive your bargaining.
• HRT – Ask the hard questions. Are you considering starting hormone replacement? Be sure that you know the facts.
• It’s about time…weight, that is. The time of day may determine how much weight you gain as much as what you are eating.
