QQ: Why Is My Period So Light?

by sabpro October 5, 2021
written by sabpro

Most people who menstruate will experience some sort of irregularity in their flow at one time or another, but more often than not, it’s not a cause for concern. Remember, everyone’s cycle is unique to them—some are like clockwork, and others fluctuate month to month.

One concern, in particular, that is often seen at the gynecologist’s office is an unusually light period. We asked gynecologists Dr. Alyssa Dweck and Dr. Sara Twogood to explain some of the reasons a period might be or become extremely light.

What Can Cause a Light Period?

The term ‘light period’ can refer to both the length of the period—fewer bleeding days than normal—and/or lighter bleeding and spotting. Many of the causes are very common and totally normal, whereas a few rarer ones may require further investigation.

All of the Ways Resveratrol Can Benefit Your Skin

by sabpro September 4, 2021
written by sabpro

If you’ve ever indulged in a glass of red wine after a long day and thought to yourself, “it’s okay, because red wine is good for you,” that’s thanks to one specific antioxidant: resveratrol. This super potent antioxidant is also found in red grapes, peanuts and berries like blueberries and mulberries.

“Like any antioxidant, resveratrol neutralizes free radicals produced by environmental damage such as radiation, cigarette smoke and air pollution,” says Geeta Yadav, M.D., M.H.S., F.R.C.P.C., a board certified dermatologist based in Toronto. “This kind of cellular damage accelerates the process of aging by increasing the oxidative stress on skin.”

Can Your Vaginal pH Actually Get Thrown Off?

by sabpro July 16, 2021
written by sabpro

Feeling some itching or burning in your vaginal area? Or have you recently noticed a strong, fishy smell down there? You may be experiencing an unbalanced vaginal pH. Long story short, vaginal pH is the measure of how acidic or basic the environment of your vagina is. On a range of 0–14, a pH that’s closer to 0 is more acidic, and one that’s closer to 14 is more basic. A pH close to 7 is seen as neutral.

A healthy or “normal” vaginal pH typically doesn’t fall in the neutral range, but instead is fairly acidic, falling somewhere between 3.5 and 4.5.

Can You Get Rid of BV Without Antibiotics?

by sabpro July 6, 2021
written by sabpro

Bacterial vaginosis, commonly known as BV, is the most common vaginal infection in the US—which means it’s more prevalent than yeast infections. Affecting more than 21 million women between the ages of 14 and 49, according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), more likely than not, you’ve probably had BV at some point in your life. Caused by an overgrowth of vaginal bacteria, BV can be majorly uncomfortable, with symptoms including a burning sensation of the genitals, itching, odor, and discharge. Alternatively, sometimes BV doesn’t manifest symptoms, so people with the infection might not know they have it. Either way, treating BV is essential, especially if you’re pregnant. The CDC notes that left untreated, BV might lead to premature birth or low-birth-weight babies. Additionally, if left untreated in non-pregnant women, BV can increase the risk of other infections and cause a host of vaginal issues.

by sabpro July 5, 2021
written by sabpro

Do you ever go through the week feeling like you need a reset? Me too, which was why I’m always looking for alternate ways to get through that inevitable midweek funk. After trying a barrage of ideas—think everything from meditation to a technology detox—a friend recommended trying an aromatherapy massage. According to her, it completely changed her mindset and is now something she tries to do every few months—in the interim, she practices aromatherapy at home. Needless to say, I knew I needed to try it.

by sabpro July 2, 2021
written by sabpro

For some, skincare is a 20-step process, morning and night. Which occasionally makes us wonder: Are we going overboard with the products? Cue skin fasting, a rising trend over the past few years, and your skin’s very own version of a detox cleanse.

We tapped one dermatologist, Dr. Lindsey Zubritsky, MD, and two estheticians, Natalie Aguilar and Karen Fernandez, to get the lowdown on all things skin fasting. Read on for what they had to say.

Do Tight Workout Leggings Really Cause Yeast Infections?

by sabpro June 17, 2021
written by sabpro

A yeast infection, or vaginal candidiasis, is an incredibly common—not to mention majorly uncomfortable—vaginal health issue impacting up to three out of every four women at some point in their life. In fact, most women experience at least two, according to The Mayo Clinic.

While it is relatively common knowledge (and scientifically proven!) that wearing cotton underwear can reduce your chances of developing the itchy, irritating, and sometimes burning infection in the vaginal area, you may have also heard that some types of compressive workout pants can also cause the condition to develop. Is there any truth to this? We asked two of the top OB/GYNs in the country—Kathryn McKenney, MD and Mary Jane Minkin, MD—to weigh in.
