Problem: Article: A myomectomy removes fibroids using laparoscopic surgery. In this procedure, the surgeon removes fibroids from the uterus through the navel or through the vagina and cervix. Both approaches are less invasive and less expensive than a hysterectomy. Hormone therapy may be a short-term option for treating uterine fibroids, but surgery is still required. Your doctor may recommend medications to shrink the size of uterine fibroids in preparation for surgery. The fibroids will grow back if they are not removed. Some hormone medications block the production of estrogen, which can reduce symptoms. Other medications can be included to control pain and other symptoms. Endometrial ablation is a technique that removes the lining of the uterus, but also causes infertility. There are some variations on this method as well, including thermal balloon ablation, cryoablation and radiofrequency ablation.  All forms of ablation cause infertility but are much less invasive and have faster recovery time than a hysterectomy. They each have success rates between 80 and 90 percent.  Be aware that this procedure is not a substitution for sterilization or contraception. Pregnancies absolutely occur after ablation, but they cannot be carried for long. Uterine prolapse may respond to Kegel exercises because they help to strengthen the pelvic floor if they are not severe. All women should start doing Kegel exercises when they reach their 40’s or after having their first child. Kegel exercises improve the strength of the pelvic floor, reduce the possibility of leaking urine while laughing or sneezing, and increase the strength of orgasm contractions. A pessary device may also be useful for a uterine prolapse. A pessary device is a plastic device that is placed in the vagina to help support the uterus and bladder without undergoing any surgery.  Your physician may also recommend a pessary device if you have urinary incontinence from bladder weakness.  You can remove and clean a pessary device. A pessary device may cause you to produce more vaginal secretions. Some pessary devices can be left in place during intercourse, but most cannot. Ask your physician about your options. Ask your doctor if birth control pills might improve your condition. Birth control pills can be used to help reduce large amounts of blood loss during your menstrual period. They may be used to treat endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain as well. If a hysterectomy has been suggested to treat abnormal bleeding, ask your doctor about other treatments that might solve the problem. Other treatments that may be used to treat abnormal bleeding can include a dilation and curettage (D&C), hormonal medications such as progestins and oral contraception, or placement of a progesterone intrauterine device (IUD) to decrease the rate of bleeding and reduce pain. A progesterone IUD can prevent hysterectomies in many patients. Uterine artery embolization (UAE) reduces the size and blood supply to fibroid tissues growing in the uterus. Once the blood supply is blocked, the fibroids will shrink and die. Although this procedure is less invasive and has a quicker recovery time than a hysterectomy, it also causes infertility. There is also a chance that it will trigger premature menopause, and it can be very painful for a day or two following the procedure.
Summary: Find out if you are a candidate for a myomectomy. Discuss the possibility of hormone therapy for your condition. Explore endometrial ablation as an option. Consider Kegel exercises for uterine prolapse. Ask about a pessary device. Discuss birth control with your doctor. Explore other treatments for abnormal bleeding. See if uterine artery embolization would help.

Problem: Article: FRAPS only works with games that use DirectX or OpenGL. Because of this, you cannot capture footage of Flash games or games that run with other rendering technologies. This applies to both older and newer games. Most PC games should work with FRAPS. The free version limits you to 30 seconds of footage at a time, and there will be a FRAPS watermark over the footage. You can download it from fraps.com. A small window will appear which will stay on top of any open windows. This window allows you to adjust the FRAPS settings. Note: FRAPS requires administrator access to run. This will allow you to adjust your recording settings. By default, the movies will be saved to the same folder that you installed FRAPS in. This generally isn't the easiest folder to get to when you want to view or work with the files. Click the "Change" button and set a new folder, such as a "Games" folder in your Videos folder. By default, F9 is the recording hotkey. You can click the field and press your new key or combination of keys. Just make sure it isn't a key that you use in the game you're recording. You can only record as many FPS as your game performs at. The overlay that is enabled by default will help you determine what speed your game runs at. Your FPS is heavily determined by your hardware and graphics settings. 60 FPS will result in the smoothest video, but will also be the largest. YouTube now allows you to upload 60 FPS footage. Recording at 60 FPS will put a big strain on your system. You can choose between "Full-size" and "Half-size". Full-size will record at the game's original resolution, while half-size will record at half the resolution. You can enable your microphone so that you can record your voice while playing. You'll be able to set a key so that the microphone only records when you hold it. Once you've configured FRAPS, you can start playing the game that you want to record. You can record most games, but if the FPS overlay doesn't appear, then the game may not support FRAPS. Press your recording hotkey (F9 by default) to begin recording. The FPS counter in the corner will turn red when FRAPS is recording. You may notice a decrease in performance when you are recording. Press F9 again to end the recording. FRAPS video files are quite large, and you may fill up your hard drive before you realize it.
Summary:
Know the limitations. Download and install FRAPS. Start the FRAPS interface. Select the "Movies" tab. Set where the recorded movie will be saved. Set your video capture hotkey. Select the FPS (frames per second) you want to record at. Set the resolution. Determine if you want to record with your microphone. Start your game. Start recording.
