KARACHI --- It was personal experience that turned Gul Bano and her cleric husband, Ahmed Khan, into ambassadors against early marriage and its worst corollary – obstetric fistula, which allows excretory matter to flow out through the birth canal. As is the custom in the remote mountain village of Kohadast in the Khuzdar district of Balochistan province, Bano was married off as soon as she reached adolescence, at 15, and was pregnant the following year.

Discuss or comment on this article.
Insomnia is a well known effect of the menopause and it often related to those symptoms that can keep you uncomfortable at night. These include things like night-sweats, hot flushes, excessive tiredness (probably because you aren’t sleeping …!) and anxiety.

Dutch researchers have reported on a four year project to follow a group of women who had received either an abdominal hysterectomy or a laparoscopic hysterectomy for benign conditions to find out if there was any difference in their quality of life post operatively.
They found that those women who had received a laparoscopic hysterectomy reported a better quality of life post operatively than those women who had received an abdominal hysterectomy. The recommendation is that for women where a vaginal hysterectomy is not feasible, that they are considered for laparascopic surgery instead.
There are three different types of ...
