Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Keep in mind that there is no cure. Be aware that the symptoms may contradict one another. Take steps to regulate your hormone levels. Recognize the difference between PMS and something more serious.

Answer: Researchers have concluded that PMS results of changing hormone levels due to menstruation; however, they do not fully understand why some women are more sensitive than others and manifest a different set of symptoms that other premenstrual women. You may have symptoms similar to a female relative. Try talking to your mother, older sister, or an aunt about how her periods are/were. She may also be able to offer suggestions about what worked best to manage her symptoms. Different bodies react to hormones and their varying amounts in different ways.  For some women, PMS is a source of constipation; for others, diarrhea.  Some women experience aggression, others report episodes of crying and helplessness.  Tune into your symptoms.  Especially if you have a strong reaction to PMS, begin a symptom journal and keep track of your menstruation. Note when you have a new or different symptom. Part of coping with the discomfort of PMS is predicting when it will occur and taking health or mood precautions to cope. Try keeping a journal to track your symptoms. Tracking your symptoms may help your doctor to recommend the best treatment methods for you. Hormonal birth control, such as the pill, the patch, a cervical ring, or an injection can help regulate fluctuating hormones and decrease the frequency and severity of PMS symptoms.  See your doctor or a gynecologist to talk about what options are right for you. Other serious illnesses, like Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder, Pelvic Inflammatory Disease, and Endometriosis share key symptoms with PMS.  If you are experiencing nausea and diarrhea in combination with any of the following symptoms, see a doctor immediately.  Chronic, severe abdominal pain. Fever Excessive bleeding. Pain during urination or bowel movements. Intense fatigue. Abnormal vaginal discharge.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Limit your fructose consumption. Say no to simple carbs. Lower your triglycerides Don't yo-yo diet.

Answer: Fructose inhibits your leptin receptors and makes you less sensitive to the leptin in your system. You may have plenty of leptin in your body, but if it can't be picked up and identified, it won't do you any good. So cut out the fructose—namely, high fructose corn syrup—to let your body do its job.  Many processed foods contain fructose. The simplest way to reduce your intake is to avoid anything prepackaged. If you’re worried about fructose, don’t rush to drop fruit from your diet. While fructose occurs naturally in fruit, the amount that you get from eating fresh fruit is not enough to affect your leptin sensitivity. Simple carbs (refined, sugary, and generally white) spike your insulin levels, which in turn leads to insulin resistance and messes with your leptin sensitivity. So white bread, white rice, and all those delicious baked goods that are calling your name are now on the no-no list.  Darker, unprocessed grains, such as whole oats, quinoa, and some whole wheat pastas tend to have more nutrients. However, be aware that these complex carbs are still carbs, and they can still lead to leptin and insulin resistance if eaten in excess.  Talk to your doctor or a registered dietitian to determine how many complex carbohydrates you should be eating every day. . Eating a diet designed to lower your triglycerides (a type of fatty molecule that circulates in your bloodstream) will also increase your leptin sensitivity. This means cutting back on sugary foods, alcohol, carbs, and saturated and trans fats.You can also reduce your triglyceride levels by eating healthy fats (such as the fats found in fish like salmon and tuna), lean proteins, green vegetables, and high-fiber foods like beans, whole grains, and fruit. Seriously. Don't do it. It just messes with your metabolism and messes with your hormones, leaving a permanent mark. And you will probably wind up gaining the weight back and then some! So pick a diet that is sustainable and healthy. Your body can't handle bouts of starvation between bouts of junk. Crash dieting is another mistake that hurts you in the long run. Crash diets won’t boost your leptin sensitivity, and are unlikely to help you lose weight. If you do lose the weight, you are likely to gain it back again quickly.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Make sure that you have the next month's NuvaRing. Keep your ring in for four weeks, then immediately replace it. Leave the ring out to have a period again.

Answer: For regular use, you would leave the NuvaRing in for three weeks, then remove it for one week before inserting the new ring. If you are using your ring to skip a period, you can leave it in for up to four weeks before starting a new ring. At the end of the four weeks, remove the NuvaRing and replace it with a fresh ring. This will re-dose your body with hormones, effectively skipping your period. The regular ring cycle ends after three weeks. You may leave it in for the fourth week, or you can remove it and replace it immediately with a fresh ring. If you've been using a NuvaRing for three or more weeks, simply remove it for four days to get your period again. After four days, put in a new ring to resume your cycle.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Check the seals around the door. Take the microwave to a professional repair shop. Report a leaking microwave. Understand the danger.

Answer:
Microwave leaks are often the result of worn or broken elements on the microwave oven's door. If you have detected a leak, look for these common causes:  Cracks on the hinges Worn areas or cracks on the seal Dents or breaks in the door itself Broken door hinges or door that fails to close firmly Damage to the metal mesh of the door (especially holes wider than 4.7 in / 12 cm) Broken door latch that does not immediately turn off the oven when you open the door. An electronics repair shop has access to much more accurate microwave testing equipment. Its staff can confirm whether your microwave is safe, and identify the problem in need of repair. You may be able to convince a repair shop to rent you the testing equipment for a smaller fee. However, these devices do require calibration and training to use, so hiring a professional may give more accurate results. If your microwave is leaking, especially if it is new and undamaged, consider contacting the manufacturer. In the United States, all manufacturers are required to pass on your report to the FDA. You can also report it to the FDA directly at this form. Outside of the US, report the issue to consumer safety organizations or government health departments. Microwave radiation is the same kind of "radiation" as visible light and radio waves, not the ionizing radiation that can cause cancer or radioactivity. The only known risk of a leaking microwave is the high levels of heat it produces. This is most dangerous to the eye (where it can lead to cataracts) and the testes (where it can cause temporary sterility). Extreme levels of microwave radiation can cause skin burns. If you do not notice any symptoms and you stop using the leaking microwave, lasting damage is very unlikely.
