Endometriosis: What every woman ought to know

By Steven O. Mukoro
As a woman you may sometimes experience cramping during your period and that can be really a troubling time. On the other hand if you have endometriosis, the pain may be so extreme that it upsets your day to day activities. You could even be forced to refrain from partaking in the things you enjoy doing at that moment.
You have endometriosis when the same type of cells that consist the lining of your uterus - the endometrium, grow outside it and attach to other parts of your body. Having this experience should let you know you need to get help.. Click the link to read more.. https://pharmatimes.com.ng/endometriosis-what-every-woman-ought-to-know/

PCOS BECAUSE ... (A FALLOUT BETWEEN SUGAR & FEMALES LOOM) - 1

By Deborah Bamisaye

"I can't share the sugar equally joor! I am older than you and that qualifies me to take more for my Garri." "Says who?" Asked Shade. "Says me, myself and I," replied Segun. "Mummy, come and warn Segun o!" "Brother Segun, not Segun, I'm not your mate." Mum in the lobby and on hearing Shade's call came in, "Why are you always upsetting your sister, Segun? don't you know...?

Debby wades in: "Hey Mummy, stop! Yes, please do not say a word until you have read this piece. Have you seen this month's PharmaTimes on PCOS? If no, then let's help you take informed decision or talk in line with what is right for the girl. Let's dive right in!"

You Can Still Live Very Healthy Later In Life

By William A. Baruwa
In line with data, Americans at present live longer than before; studies also show that still, the average American woman outlives her men counterparts. While the average life expectancy for the American man is currently about 75 years, it’s more than 80 for the womenfolk.
But the reason for this according to researchers is still not very clear. Even from birth, boys run a higher risk of dying than girls, and researchers aren’t sure why this is so. However, research suggests that a leading reason for the “longevity gap” between men and women is that men generally don’t take care of themselves as well as women do.

Breakthrough in Cancer Treatment: Scientists Unlock Sustainable, Low-Cost Production of Drug

By William A. Baruwa
The demand for Taxol—a widely used chemotherapy drug for breast, ovarian, cervical, and lung cancers—is on the rise. However, its production has long been a challenge: expensive, complex, and heavily reliant on environmentally taxing chemical processes. That’s because, until now, scientists had been unable to reproduce Taxol biosynthetically.
After three decades of global research efforts, scientists at the University of Copenhagen have finally cracked the code. Click the link to read more.. https://pharmatimes.com.ng/breakthrough-in-cancer-treatment-scientists-unlock-sustainable-low-cost-production-of-drug/

The Way a Common Antibiotic Drives Bacterial Resistance


By Steven O. Mukoro
A new study from Rutgers Health uncovers an unexpected twist in the fight against antibiotic resistance: instead of simply killing bacteria, antibiotics like ciprofloxacin can push microbes into a survival mode. The drug disrupts energy production in Escherichia coli (E. coli), triggering a surge in metabolic activity that not only helps some bacteria survive the attack but also accelerates their mutation rate—ultimately speeding up the evolution of resistance.
Rather than wiping out bacteria entirely, some antibiotics may inadvertently train them to fight back. This energy crash and metabolic rebound allow E. coli cells to endure treatment and adapt more quickly, undermining the long-term effectiveness of the drug.

Drug Shown to Protect the Brain’s 'Guardian'
More than 55 million people worldwide are affected by dementia caused by Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other neurodegenerative disorders that damage brain and nerve cells. While no effective treatment currently exists to manage or slow these conditions, researchers from Case Western Reserve University, University Hospitals, and the Louis Stokes Cleveland VA Medical Center have identified a promising new drug candidate for treating AD.

Auto Immune Disease (The Menace Of Self-Protest) – 1

By Deborah Bamisaye

How does one explain Auto immune disease ooo?! Ok, let’s draw what it looks like from some Nigerian history.

Ever heard of the fights between Modakeke and Ife within Osun State? History has it that the internal crisis was rooted in cultural, political, economic, and historical factors, especially revolving around land ownership, identity, and political representation within the same state. These have led to repeated cycles of violence for nearly two centuries but though there seems to be peace at the moment, we can only pray for total absence of violence in times to come… Click the link to read more… https://pharmatimes.com.ng/auto-immune-disease-the-menace-of-self-protest-1/

ANTI MICROBIAL RESISTANCE: A SHOWDOWN

By Deborah Bamisaye

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) means that tiny germs like bacteria can change and become strong enough to survive medicines called antibiotics that are supposed to kill them. Imagine the germs getting a shield against the medicine! This happens because when we use antibiotics a lot, some germs learn how to protect themselves and keep growing even when medicine tries to stop them… Click the link to read more…

UNDERSTANDING POLYCYSTIC O***Y SYNDROME (PCOS): A NIGERIAN WOMAN’S GUIDE TO AWARENESS, DIAGNOSIS, AND MANAGEMENT

Polycystic O***y Syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine disorders affecting women of reproductive age globally, including in Nigeria. Despite its prevalence, many Nigerian women remain unaware or misinformed about the condition, often attributing its symptoms to cultural myths, spiritual beliefs, or unrelated health issues. This article seeks to demystify PCOS for Nigerian women by offering culturally relevant information about its causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and lifestyle management strategies..

TESTOSTERONE AND AGEING: WHAT EVERY MAN SHOULD KNOW

By Evans Matthews

As men grow older, many begin to notice changes in their energy levels, s*xual performance, mood, and body composition. While these shifts are often dismissed as "normal ageing" or "just stress," one important yet under-discussed factor may be responsible—a decline in testosterone.

Testosterone is the primary male s*x hormone, essential for developing male s*xual characteristics, muscle mass, energy, bone density, and libido. Starting from the age of 30, testosterone levels begin to drop gradually in men—a process sometimes called male menopause or andropause.

BREAKING THE SILENCE: CONFRONTING MENTAL HEALTH STIGMA IN NIGERIAN MEN

By Evans Matthews

In recent years, mental health has gradually become part of the global conversation about wellness, but in Nigeria, particularly among men, it remains a deeply stigmatized and neglected issue. While men are expected to be strong, stoic, and unyielding in the face of adversity, these very cultural ideals often become a cage, trapping countless Nigerian men in silence, suffering, and shame.
