During orgasm, a powerful array of chemicals is released in your body. These include the cuddle-chemical (oxytocin), endorphins, melatonin, nitric oxide, adrenaline & others.

The result is a calming, almost numbing effect that makes you wanna sleep so deeply.
Some of the chemicals mentioned above are not released UNTIL YOU REACH ORGASM! So if your sex doesn't reach orgasm, you may not experience all these.

How sleepy you feel after sex depends on whether you reached orgasm or not.
Generally, ladies are more sensitive to the stimulant effect of adrenaline.

This is why sometimes after a powerful orgasm, some women feel energized - they may squirt, scream like hell, squeeze you, or even shake like they've just had an electric shock!
On the other hand, guys are often more sensitive to the numbing (or narcotic) effect of endorphins.

This is why sometimes after a powerful orgasm, some men feel sooooooo sleepy almost like they're in a state of coma!

Don't wear babies tight-fitting shoes.
Don't wear babies tight-fitting shoes.

They don't walk for the first few months, so such shoes are useless. Using yarn boots or loose socks is enough.

Wearing babies tight shoes or tight socks can cause ingrown toenails.

Pass on!
Children, adolescents & teens are particularly prone to having ingrown toenails from tight-fitting footwear.
That's because they tend to outgrow their footwear quickly.

Crowding their feet into tight socks & short shoes can cause painful ingrown toenails which may get infected.
Even adults who constantly wear tight-fitting shoes are at risk of having ingrown toenails.

So it's advised that people wear loose socks & better-fitting shoes.
E.g. you shouldn't struggle with socks or shoes before you put them on. If you do, they are probably too tight.

ECTOPIC PREGNANCY

A woman just lost her life due to ectopic pregnancy!

It's a pregnancy in which the embryo attaches outside the womb. It can be life-threatening.

But we can save lives by helping educate women on our Timelines with this.

THREAD 🧵
In the human body, a fertilized egg hardly survives outside the womb. If allowed to grow, it may damage nearby organs & cause severe blood loss.

The bulk of ectopic pregnancies occur in/along the Fallopian tubes.

Some in the ovaries, cervix or a random location in the abdomen.
The usual symptoms of ectopic pregnancy a woman may experience esp. in early pregnancy are;

* Abdominal pain
* Vaginal bleeding, &
* Amenorrhea (missing your period)

Other pregnancy symptoms like breast fullness & occasional nausea may be there too.

But we have to fight down viral hepatitis. It's getting too common in the society.

Help us share this to people on your timeline.
Note that Hepatitis B vaccination is only for people who have not been infected.

If you're infected, you need to take Hepatitis B antiviral drugs, not the vaccine.

AS+SS=❌
AS+SC=❌

SS+SC=❌
SS+SS=❌
SS+CC=❌
SC+SC=❌
SC+CC=❌
CC+CC=❌

In short, BOTH partners shouldn't have a 'C' and/or 'S'!

RT for awareness
A person with AS or AC has sickle cell trait, while one with SS or CC has the disease.

Some SC patients develop 'Hemoglobin SC disease' a type of sickle cell anaemia.

But they often have fewer crisis & live longer (average lifespan of 65 yrs) compared to SS patients (48 yrs).
Some of you might have found love during this festive season and are contemplating tying the knots in marriage.

Knowing your genotype compatibility as partners is extremely crucial.
