The study showed that women who had HPV but not AAV had the highest risk of cervical cancer. Additionally, women appeared less likely to have AAV if their sexual partners had more than 10 previous sexual partners. Women choosing reconstructive surgery after mastectomy have significantly more mood disturbances and poorer sense of well being than women having only a mastectomy. The study at the Park Nicollete Institute in Minneapolis monitored women's quality of life for 2 years after surgery. The authors say the results may be from the longer surgery and hospitalization, and post-surgical pain associated with reconstructive surgery.
Swedish research shows women working with chemicals in research labs have lower fertility rates.
Women working with known toxins, various cells or viruses need considerably more cycles to become pregnant. Women 65 and older with high amounts of thyroid hormone, either as a result of an overactive thyroid or thyroid hormone replacement therapy, have 3 times the risk of hip fracture and 4 times the chance of a spine fracture as women with normal thyroid levels. Women with an overactive thyroid had twice the risk of hip fracture only. Those receiving proper levels had no increased fracture risk. A periodontist from the University of Mississippi Medical Center believes early osteoporosis detection maybe as simple as testing women's saliva.
