or advice anymore!

With a bit of luck they could work for you, too.

Please, do keep checking back for more.
Feminine Hygiene
This section can include anything to do with women's health and feminine hygiene.
These products are the result of years of experimentation to find the one that works the best for me.
Menstruation
-
Mooncup - Reusable menstrual cup
-
I found using tampons uncomfortable, bordering on the painful, especially in the last couple of days of my period. Sanitary towels were messy and irritating and both worked out as expensive in the long run. So, I needed to find something that would s...
Sweating/BO
Sure Maximum Protection is a 'scientifically proven wetness protection'; protection against sweating and BO.
I've struggled to find an anti-perspirant that not only did its job adequately but also didn't leave white marks. Those anti-perspirants that did leave white marks were the most effective but they ruined my clothes.
So, time for a change.
Yes, Sure Maximum Protection is a little more expensive than your average deodorant but it's worth the extra cost for that peace of mind. It smells gorgeous, too!

Cold/Flu
I've titled this section Cold/Flu but it can also include any hayfever or upper respiratory tract remedies that I use on a regular basis or have found recently.
Sinusitis
-
Olbas Oil - The best relief from Sinusitis
-
Olbas Oil is a natural product I use on a regular basis to avoid developing Sinusitis and to help me breathe whilst I sleep due to allergies. Olbas Oil, to me, is a life saver in this respect. It's reasonably priced, smells gorgeous and is very...
It also worked for them!
Wind/Flatulence
This is the cause of the majority of my digestive problems and symptoms. Who would know that just a mundane thing as trapped air could cause such a huge problem?
It may sound funny or may be considered trivial but, believe me, it is not.
You just can't imagine how ill this can make some people feel.

How to relieve wind/flatulence
-
We all get wind but you'd be surprised at the problems it can cause even though it raises a laugh or two. Okay, yes, I find it funny, too :) So, here is my step-by-step guide to relieving your wind when you just can't do the decent thing an...

Depression
A condition I know only too well as I suffered with it at the tender age of 8 years old and from the age of 18.
Why did I have a respite of 10 years? Who knows? Maybe I didn't but just couldn't recognise the symptoms.
After all, it's only recently that I became aware of the fact that I even had it when I was 8.

Effective ways to combat Depression
-
Depression can affect anyone. It has many different forms and, as such, can go undiagnosed for many years. This Squidoo lens will list some effective ways that you can use to help combat your Depression.
Spots/Pimples
Not blackheads
This product I use doesn't deal with blackheads very well and it doesn't solve the problems of spots that need to be zapped by a face mask (for me anyway.)
But, for all other spots, it's brilliant.
It seems that a lot of people also agree although like all things it doesn't work for everyone.
It's T-Zone Spot Zapping Stick.
Dermatitis
Seborrehic Dermatitis, Eczema
Another niggly little problem that drives me nuts!
The Seborrheic Dermatitis causes hair loss, scalp pain, itchiness and dry, brittle hair.
For intimate eczema I've been prescribed Canesten HC.
This could also be used on small patches of eczema on any part of the body under medical supervision only.
This cream is available in the UK as a POM (prescription only medicine.)

Seborrheic Dermatitis
-
Anyone who suffers from Seborrheic Dermatitis will know just how miserable it can be; all that itching and scratching. However, the chances are, you are not alone and there are plenty of things you can do to help control this condition.
