Painful sex (dyspareunia) after surgical menopause
A surgical menopause is one caused when a woman has her ovaries removed. It can also refer to a menopause triggered following a hysterectomy that has left her ovaries in place.
There are many menopausal symptoms and some, like the hot flush, are often easier to deal with than others. Perhaps the hardest ones to overcome though are those that affect our sexual well-being and these include things like vaginal dryness or loss of libido.

Vitamin E dose recommendations may be too high for Cystic Fibrosis patients, finds new research
ConclusionsOur results suggest that the CF-specific vitamin E recommendations are higher than necessary to prevent deficiencies. Therefore, vitamin E dosages of 50% of the recommendations could be used, at least initially. We found no evidence that higher serum α-tocopherol levels had protective effects on pulmonary function in paediatric patients with CF. Moreover, the finding of higher serum α-tocopherol levels in patients with lower pulmonary function casts doubt on the hypothesis that vitamin E has therapeutic benefits.

Mechanism outlined by which inadequate vitamin E can cause brain damage
Researchers have discovered how vitamin E deficiency may cause neurological damage by interrupting a supply line of specific nutrients and robbing the brain of the 'building blocks' it needs to maintain neuronal health. They found that nutrients needed to build and maintain the brain can be cut by more than half, with possible implications for an elevated risk of Alzheimer's disease. (Source: ScienceDaily Headlines)

High cholesterol, triglycerides can keep vitamin E from reaching body tissues
In the continuing debate over how much vitamin E is enough, a new study has found that high levels of blood lipids such as cholesterol and triglycerides can keep this essential micronutrient tied up in the blood stream, and prevent vitamin E from reaching the tissues that need it. This raises new questions about whether or not most people have an adequate intake of vitamin E. (Source: ScienceDaily Headlines)
