Hello doctor what can make some one sleep in the night and wake up with saliva in her mouth some times in the morning

This is a common symptom of reflux disease ,many people with reflux wake up with morning reflux saliva. You may want to consider some preventive things such as eating smaller meals or not eating just before bed. You should also consider seeing a doctor about this if it's been going on for so long, and also since there are other conditions that may also cause one to wake up with excess saliva in the mouth, some of which have serious implications.

You can contact me also on WhatsApp for further consultation and appropriate treatment.

Doctor, I'm a woman, my friends heckle me often because I refuse to shave my armpit hair. Is it good to shave armpit hair? Thank you.

The main health benefit gained from shaving the armpit hair is to reduce the collection of bacteria in the armpit hair which cause body odor. Other than that,you're better off NOT shaving your armpit hair, because bacteria from the blade and the skin can get into your skin pores and cause boils in the skin and even a worse skin infection called cellulitis, more serious than that gotten when you don't shave.

So by and large, when you DO NOT shave you're less vulnerable to infections.

We also do know that the armpit hair conveys pheromones which are chemical messengers that stimulate sexual arousal, desire, hormone levels, and even fertility when released. They also help make your or***ms better.

Armpit hair also helps to regulate body temperature by trapping heat and sweat.

In terms of hygiene, underarm hair is not necessarily unsanitary. Nevertheless, many people still choose to remove their underarm hair, for cosmetic or hygienic reasons. Some find it quite difficult maintaining a good body odor without shaving their armpit hair and of course not everyone who shaves develops boils or cellulitis. But if you can mange your armpit hair and odor properly, all the better for you.

In any case we must be reminded that even though all genders have body hair, only women are pressured to shave theirs off. A shaved body has been the ideal of feminine beauty for decades, but that doesn’t make it totally healthy, or—mind-blowing thought—the most beautiful way to upkeep our bodies.

I hope this helps.

At your age my dear, you should be more concerned about your studies and not your s***m count.

S***m count should only be your priority when you're married and financially capable of taking care of a child. Having a child is a huge responsibility that shouldn't be taken lightly.

As for your blood count, there are many reasons why your blood count will be low which can only be detected by doing some laboratory investigations. You should go to a hospital for that.

Your 3rd question is about gaining weight. That depends on a lot of factors. Genetics play a huge role here, if it's in your family DNA to be slim statured you're not likely to be on the fat side.

Your diet is also important. Feeding properly on balanced diet will help a great deal.

Finally, ma********on is largely a thing of the mind and one that can be stopped very easily if you truly want to.

Because it's a mind control problem, you have to deal with those things that you focus your mind on.

So work on those things that fill your mind which cause you to ma******te. Remove them. It's as simple as that.Pornography is a very common reason why teenagers ma******te. If you're into po*******hy then you've got to stop it.

Discipline your mind to reject sexually stimulating thoughts. It may take a long time to achieve but you will do it especially if you really want to stop ma********on.

I hope this helps.

If you were a post pubertal female, pregnancy would be first on the list of possibilities, but because you're male, the common causes of regular morning dizziness may include dehydration, ear infections, low blood pressure, low blood sugar, anaemia, obstructive sleep apnea and medication side effects.

Except for dehydration, you most definitely should seek medical attention for these conditions and also if the dizziness is accompanied by chest pain, a rapid heart rate,a severe headache, or loss of consciousness.

I hope this helps.
