Menstruation

    Menstruation is a monthly sloughing off of the lining of the underutilized womb. Menstruation has different meanings in different societies while it has different significance for different women. But most society share the view that mensuration is a sign of sexual maturity although it does not necessarily indicate reproductive maturity.
    Some girls readily accept the first menstrual period. They are joyful and excited while others are ashamed. This indicates how well girls are prepared for menarche, in terms of both information and attitudes. In recent times, menarche has been occurring earlier than attitude. Girls first menarche is in between 12 years.
    Many researches have been carried out in recent years to determine the psychological effects of the marked fluctuations of hormonal levels that are connected to the menstrual cycle. One of the research says that most women experience depression, irritability, anxiety, and low self esteem during the days immediately preceding menstruation. Other researchers have also correlated women's well being with hormonal levels. Women are more alert at the beginning of the menstrual cycle, more relaxed at ovulation, angrier, more excitable and more tired during the premenstrual period. It was noted that the arrival of the menses usually brings some relaxation of tension, and as oestrogen production increases, the woman continues to feel better. But these observation did not apply for all women but majority of them could be said to experience these.

Natural soil

 Natural soils are influenced by rainfall and temperature,heavy rain causes the soil to become leached. High temperatures increase the rate of decomposition of organic matter in the soil, thereby lowering its humus content. Thus, climatic conditions tend to produce poor soils in the tropics and rich soils in the temperate regions. Besides climate and vegetation, the parent rock material also contributes to the quality of the soil. For example volcanic rocks tend to produce fertile soils.    Laterite, a red soil which is a product of leaching, is commonly found in the tropics. It is composed mainly of iron and aluminium compounds,and poor in humus and essential plant nutrients, such as phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium. The black and brown soil of the temperate grasslands are the world's richest soils, with a high mineral and humus content. The light coloured desert soils tend to be very rich in minerals but have a low humus content.    Mainly the soils ar...

READING AND UNDERSTANDING

All reading is geared to understanding. There would be no point in reading if we did not understand what we are reading. However there are many different obstacles in the way of easy understanding of a passage. It is your task as a reader to actively seek to break down the barriers to understanding.    One block to understanding is caused by references in the passage to things that are outside it. Pronoun are the first examples of words that refer to people and objects. Sometimes, it is easy to follow the reference at other times, it is more difficult. Look at the opening sentence of the passage you've just read that begins this way  "She was waiting for us:small, dowdy, dirty..."  Who was waiting? Who was the person waiting for? (Perhaps you would also like to know why she was waiting.)Answers to these questions will surely help you to understand and thus follow the reference. The first thing to do is to ask questions like the ones we have just asked and to read t...

What do women really want?

What men want is thought to be understood quite well. In general, their sexual desire is orderly, consistent, and narrowly directed. A heterosexual man is heterosexual. If you show him heterosexual sex, his sexual physiology and subjective, reported desire rise in tandem. Homosexual sex will leave him cold both physically and emotionally. For men, there is an excellent match between physiological arousal (as measured by penile tumescence) and level of reported desire. Viagra’s success demonstrates the simplicity of the male mechanism. Viagra does not target desire, but works by increasing genital blood flow, allowing erection. This, apparently, is all that is needed in many cases. As the penis rises, desire is already waiting.       For women, the story is different. The female body, studies show , likes everything, or at least responds to everything (or does not know what it likes, some cynics will say). Female physiological arousal (as measured by vaginal lu...
