Dear ladies, I heard some of you drink salt and water immediately after sex to "flush a man's sperm out of her system"! This can not prevent pregnancy.

There are better things to do, pls stop harming your body! 🤕

RT for awareness Image
Also, taking

• Cod liver oil tablets after sex
• Ginseng tea after sex
• Hot water baths after sex
• 4 to 5 paracetamol tablets after sex
• Andrews liver salt after sex
• Dry gin after sex

This is all rubbish. None can prevent pregnancy!
Most of these substances you take can go straight into your digestive system and hurt your body badly. Pls stop harming your body.

If you want to prevent a pregnancy after sex, use emergency contraceptives.

ABNORMAL NIPPLE DISCHARGE

Some people don't breastfeed, but discharge milk from their nipples esp. when touched. This is called #galactorrhea!

On it's own, it's not a disease. But it could be a sign of an underlying disease that needs treatment.

Thread 🧵

RT for awareness Image
Have you seen someone who is not breastfeeding discharging milk from their nipples before?
Yeah, so #galactorrhea occurs mostly in women who have been pregnant before and are between 20 and 35 years.

But it can also happen in women of all ages, children and even men (yes, men can discharge breast milk from their tiny nipples too!😊)

Stop abusing steroids to build muscles.
Stop abusing steroids to enhance performance.

When your body is exposed to excess #steroids for a long time it can lead to Cushing's syndrome, a horrible condition.

A thread 🧵

RT for awareness Image
Normally, Cushing's syndrome occurs when your body is exposed to high levels of the hormone #cortisol for a long time.

But most steroid medications have the same effect on your body as cortisol.

So, when you take excess steroids over time, it can lead to Cushing's syndrome.
Cushing's syndrome can also occur when your body makes too much cortisol on its own (like in certain tumors of your pituitary gland or adrenal problems).

But taking or injecting steroid medications (exogenous steroids) is the single most common cause of this horrible condition. Image

Guys, pls stop wearing tight #pants!

Tight underwears can keep your testicles closer to the body, causing warmer temperatures that may kill your sperm, lower sperm count & cause infertility.

Wear boxers instead, & go to bed naked if you want to become a father
