As shown below in the "Up-Coming Post Topics" section, tomorrow will be this blog's first post! The topic will be about Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, a condition that is near the top of the list for causes of infertility in young adult women.

On Friday the 3rd, Laine's post on Breast Ironing in Cameroon is scheduled to post, followed by some discussion topics that I've put together. I look forward to hearing from you all and seeing the different ways that you will react to this interesting and provocative topic.

The "Up-Coming Post Topics" section at the bottom will show the topics that I am working on highlighting and will have post dates as soon as I have scheduled them.

WELCOME!!!!

Hello everyone and welcome to Dr. D's Women's Health Corner!!!! I hope that this site will be interesting, informative, and a way for women to communicate and collaborate about issues affecting women's health and women's rights. I encourage you to get involved in upcoming discussion topics. Also please feel free to suggest issues or health conditions that you feel are relevant and would like clarification on. I do not know everything but I have at my disposal a lot of resources.

New information will not be put on this blog every day since I will be in my residency training and will be quite busy. My goal is to at least update it once every 2 weeks with enough to keep you thinking and talking until the next post.

I will try to be as concise as possible but please understand that some of these posts may not be the shortest, since certain health conditions are quite complicated. I will try to condense the information into a form that is easy to follow, gets you thinking, and at least arms you with the information that you need so that you can go out and be the number one advocate of your own health.

Thanks again to Laine Strutton who is my contributor extraordinaire. Her knowledge about the struggles of women all over the world will prove very insightful.
