I Found the Cure for My Hair Loss

Although my father had a receding hairline, I never believed hair loss would happen to me. Shortly before my thirtieth birthday, I noticed that my hairline was receding. I was scared and in denial that I was losing my hair. I was also starting to lose hair on the back of my head.

Baldness has affected me, I felt old. I felt like the best years of my life were behind me. I even ceased seeing other people. My love life was nearly non-existent. There was one girl I had been dating nonchalantly and even though I liked her, I just stopped returning her phone calls. I realised that I hadn’t found the woman of my dreams with a full head of hair so there was no way I was going to find somebody with my growing bald spot. I was too dismayed to even try having a romantic relationship.

Hair loss affected me tremendously, it changed me from a confident person to a dismayed loner. I’ve I have never been one to just sit back and let problems overcome me. I started trying various hair loss treatments that are available over the counter. I have tried every single treatment and solution obtainable from the drug store, nothing worked. After many failures, I decided to stop trying for a while. It was a real low point in my life. I even stopped going out with my friends, I was so demoralized.

As Luck Would Have It, one night a good friend of mine took me out for a few beverages. Throughout the night, he observed was I looked a little down. It took him a little while to figure out why. He told me about the hair loss studio in the city. My friend had gone there for hair loss treatments and had been impressed with the results. I was even more impressed. My friend had a full head of hair and there was no sign of hair loss. He made me promise to give them a shot and I agreed.

I could not have been happier with the hair loss studio recommended to me. After just a few hair loss treatments, I had a full head of hair again. The hair loss studio not only helped me regained my hair but also my self-assurance.

Nonsurgical Options for Prostate Cancer

There are nonsurgical options for prostate cancer.

Hormonal therapy is just as popular as surgery, but maybe dismissed by many urologists as unproven. Many patients whose cancer has spread throughout the body find relief through reducing the amount of male hormone in the bloodstream which is what the cancer “feeds on”. Without testosterone, impotency is almost inevitable.

One such drug is the DES (diethistibestrol), a chemical that is similar to estrogen (a female hormone). Although DES brings with it a longer life and lessens the symptoms, it does have side effects. It kills a man’s sex drive, and many men report the nearly female effects: breast enlargement, thinning beards and even scrotal shrinkage.

LH-RH Agonists (Leuprolide and Goserelin) can be used in later stages of prostate cancer. This is a synthetic pituitary hormone that regulates the release of testosterone into the bloodstream. After triggering an initial rush of testosterone, it causes a drastic decrease in testosterone which then starves the tumor. The side effects are occasional hot flashes, headaches, or impotence. It is usually administered through injections or implant pellets.

Antiandrogens are hormones that inhibits the action of testosterone on cancer cells. It is also marketed to the brand name Flutamide, and it is frequently used in conjunction with other hormone treatments to lessen the pain of advanced prostate cancer

Immunotherapy is a method used to build up the body’s natural defense against diseases, including cancer. Some doctors combine immunotherapy with chemotherapy to help patients through the later stages of prostate cancer. Other sufferers use natural cures and herbs to help their bodies fight the cancer.

Radiation and Hyperthermia

Scientists do know that temperatures of 105F or higher are deadly to cell division and weak cells. Scientists are attempting to put this information to work on prostate cancer by combining it with radiation to kill cancer cells.

When applying heat to the whole body or to the localized area prior to radiation, it seem s to be more effective than either treatment alone

There are Enzyme-inhibiting drugs such as Proscar by blocking production of an enzyme that triggers production of testosterone.

Chemotherapy is usually considered a last resort for many cancer patients. The chemicals directly attack the cancer cells but usually end up killing many healthy cells as well.

These are only a few of the treatments available for prostate cancer patients. Please discuss with your doctor as to what treatment may be the best option for you.

Introduction to Non-Surgical Foreskin Restoration, Tissue Expansion, How it is Accomplished

What is Foreskin Restoration - and How is it Accomplished?

Non-surgical Foreskin Restoration is the process of extending and growing penile shaft skin (and/or remaining foreskin) to aesthetically and functionally resemble a man’s first, natural foreskin. The extension and growth of new skin is absolutely possible. New skin cells are forced to grow by applying some form of tensioning / pulling device to the shaft skin. With constant and consistent application of the chosen restoration method, in other words - with tension constantly being applied to one area of skin, new skin cells grow as a result of it’s expanded (stretched) condition.

The medical profession uses a similar principle. In plastic surgery, for example, a doctor may place a balloon device under an area of skin on a patient, and slowly over a period of time inflate the balloon to expand and grow skin tissue surrounding the inserted device.

Many men come to the FRC chatroom and ask “how do I restore my foreskin?” or “How can I be growing foreskin.” Non-surgical restoration is always the most preferrable method - and provides the most natural, normal looking restored foreskin. There are however, surgical options available, although they come with risk and results are not generally very successful. Consider the time it takes you to restore non-surgically as a healing process.

Confused by all this?
(Specific methodologies can be found at the FRC Site, located at http://foreskinrestorationchat.info - a not-for-profit site)

We see new restorers at FRC all the time. They read through all the information on the net, and get overwhelmed. The primary source of concern always seems to revolve around “what method should I start using to restore?”

Regarding the method you chose to use to restore: it’s not uncommon to try two or three different methods or/and devices (commercial or not) before a foreskin restorer (”FR”) finds the method that works best for them in:

- Comfort
- Practicality of use
- Ease of fitting method/device into lifestyle
- Ability to tolerate prolonged consistent use

Many devices to restore foreskin are simply impossible to wear to bed, for example. So spend some time examining comparison charts (easy to find out there online!) so that you can decide what method you will try first.

NOTE: Most beginners start with the “T-Tape” method as it is the simplest to make at home, for virtually no cost, and is an effective tried and tested method of restoring your foreskin. But you may not like having to use tapes… if that’s the case then you must resort to investigating tapeless non-surgical “tuggers”.

Depending on what method you decide to use to start growing your foreskin, you should check in the FRC Link Directory in the “specific methods of restoration” section to search for the specific instruction sets for the method you have chosen, or if you have purchased a commercial device, be sure to consult the manufacturer’s website.

So being new to foreskin restoration doesn’t have to be complicated! Simply: research the methods comparison chart, decide on which method may suit your lifestyle/speed of growth desired/ease of use/discretionary needs, etc. Then go to a directory and search for the specific method of restoration you have chosen. If you cannot locate your particular method’s instruction guides, then simply do a ’scrub the web search for the method or device you have chosen.

Read and study all the postings, diaries and materials you can online written by restorers who are using the same method as you. You can never learn enough about this delicate process, and the more you know about what you’re doing - exactly - the less likely you are to fail in your pursuit of a restored foreskin!

Has been involved in the restoration community for a decade. http://foreskinrestorationchat.info for detailed info.

Plan an Evening of Relaxation and Pamper Yourself

Plan an Evening of Relaxation to Pamper Yourself Slowly
inhale…Now Exhale…Again…In through your nose…and out
through your mouth…Didn’t that feel great? Sure it did! Now
imagine that feeling lasting more than the 20 seconds it took
for you to complete that breathing exercise. Just think “spa”.
You can create your own spa experience at home or if you cant
get the house to yourself, get a babysitter or have hubby keep
the kids and rent a hotel room. First set a date and mark it on
your calendar. Then create your own spa supply kit for your
special evening. Some suggestions for your spa kit include:

Candles Bubble Bath Body Lotion Body Spray Smooth Jazz Romance
Novel Comfortable Pajamas, or a Sexy Night Gown Bottle of Wine

You can find everything you need for your spa kit by visiting
Smallflower.com, Candles.Com, and Sephora.com. Next, anticipate
an evening of “me” time and relaxation. Just imagine…Candles
everywhere, Gerald Albright playing in the background, you in a
nice and steamy bubblebath, sipping on a glass of wine. Then,
after your cares swirled down the drain, imagine you massaging
your body with your favorite scented body lotion, then you,
slipping on some comfortable pajamas, or a sexy night gown. And
finally, you relaxing on that big comfortable bed, curled up,
living out your fantasies through a steamy romance novel, with
no interruptions. Now if that sounds good to you, then what are
you waiting for? Stop the excuses and start planning your
evening of relaxation and pampering!

FAQs About Internet Dating

If you’re interested in meeting new people to date, the Internet
match services are a great new option. The number of people
joining them is staggering.

If you’re new to the experience, here’s an FAQ for you:

Q: How can I be sure he’s not married? How can I be sure she’s
not a felon? A: The bottom line - there are no guarantees about
this or anything else in life. Unfortunately, deceptive people
are good at deception and you can’t always tell. With time,
experience and common sense you can pick up on the “red flags”
earlier. In your favor is the fact that people tend to reveal
more with the anonymity of the Internet than in real life. From
experience, I can tell you it’s likely you’ll be able to tell by
their language and by their questions. They “spill.” For tips,
email me for my free white paper, “How to Tell if the Man You’re
Dating is Married.”

Q: How can I avoid alcoholics and addicts? A: Again only time
will tell, but here’s one tip. When the person checks “don’t
drink”, this is a yellow flag, not a green light. Find out WHY
they “don’t drink”.

Q: Do websites screen applicants? A: The good news is that some
say they do. The bad news is they do it by requiring all
registrants give their social security number. This will limit
selection as many good single folks aren’t willing to put their
social security numbers on the Internet.

Q: There are so many websites. What sites should I register on?
A: Use your EQ to make the selection. Intuitively, when you go
the site it will appeal to you or not. On one site, people sign
in as “SeXy Fox” and “ReadyWillingAndAble”. On another, they use
their first names, “Sam” or “Martha.” Which is the one for you?
Are you after a man who leads with “Italian Stallion” or simply
uses his name? Is someone who calls himself “C” hiding something
or too “closed” for your tastes? The way the sites phrase their
questions can alert you to style as well.

Q: What type of person uses these sites? Q: Everyone’s using the
sites, but it’s especially well-suited for introverts. The
normal progression is website, to normal email, to telephone
calls to meeting in person. Introverts like a slow
get-to-know-you. If you like introverts, you’ll find more of
them on Internet dating sites than in local bars and social
groups. Extraverts tend to jump steps in the process. Extraverts
you can meet out and about.

Q: I’m sick of men (women) who just want a brief affair. I want
marriage. How can I find someone else who wants what I want? A:
That’s good - know what you want. Some sites let you choose an
array of desires from penpals, to friendship, to marriage, so
there’s one clue. Otherwise, the only way you’ll know is to ask
and find out.

Q: What kind of questions should I ask? A: Eharmony.com
(http://tinyurl.com/2lyea ) has a long list of pre-selected
questions you send back and forth that are good. Each time you
have contact with someone and it works out or doesn’t, figure
out the early clues and save yourself some time. You’ll quickly
learn that when someone asks you a certain question right-off,
they’re not the one for you. Their initial choices reveal a lot
if you’re paying attention.

Q: For example? A: Three leading questions that send off good
clear signals are “How do you feel about pre-marital sex?” and
“How do you feel about traditional gender roles?” and “Are you
willing to relocate?” These give a lot of information about what
the person is interested in. Ask yourself these questions, and
there’s no right or wrong answer, it’s simply what you’re after:
You’ll quickly learn when they ask XX question, press the delete
button.

Q: How can I maximize safety? A: Exercise normal caution. Some
of the sites give you safety rules. Read them. Common sense
would tell you to get to know someone before you invite them
into your private email or home. When you do agree to meet with
someone, make it a public place in the daytime, go in your own
car, and let someone else know where you’re going. Use the same
precautions you would anywhere else.

A: What should I avoid doing? A: That you’ll learn through
experience, aside from the safety precautions already listed.
When something goes poorly, write it down and don’t do it again!

Q: Should I try someone who lives far away? A: One of you has to
have some money, that’s for sure. Most sites let you roam the
world for a mate, if you’re so-inclined. If you’re after
long-term commitment, are you willing to relocate? Is he? How
are your (plural) finances? LD romances require a lot of money
and flexibility. You can easily run up a $700 phone bill in a
month before you even get to the plane tickets.

Q: What else should I check for? A: His pace should match yours.
Do you like a man who asks permission to call you after 2 months
or corresponding, or someone who looks your number up on the
Internet and calls you the next day? Do you want someone who
tells you right away they’re an alcoholic in recovery or have
been divorced 3 times or have a $300,000 home in the Bahamas?
Their pace of revealing both their strengths and faults should
match your tastes. Are they lying? Is she desperate and needy?
Only time will tell. Take your time.

Q: What if it doesn’t work out when we meet in person? A:
Sometimes it won’t. If you’re mostly motivated by appearance and
“chemistry,” it can be a shock. Everyone’s going to put their
best photo on the Internet and some people are more photogenic
than others. If you’re more after internal qualities, those you
will have experienced and they should still be there. Plan your
meeting so there’s an easy escape-route. If they’re in your town
and you meet for lunch, how long can an hour be? If you meet in
San Francisco for a weekend, even if you don’t hit it off for
romance, you can still have a good time and part amicably.

Q: Is it just for weirdos? A: Not at all. I know personally
people who met and married through an Internet dating service.
It’s confusing at first but you’ll hit the learning curve.
Internet dating is a viable option in today’s world. There are
plenty of good people using the sites. They may live in rural
locations, have little time to get out, prefer to get to know
someone in writing, or any number of legitimate reasons. If
you’re serious about dating, why not try all options? Use your
head and good luck!
