Infertility treatments and Cancer

giuliana-rancicDid IVF cause Giuliana’s breast cancer?

My thoughts and best wishes go out to Giuliana Rancic, the host of “E! News” and her husband Bill. Giuliana announced on Monday morning in a Today show interview that she has breast cancer. Giuliana and Bill’s reality show has chronicled their two recent IVF attempts. Sadly one failed completely and the other resulted in a miscarriage at 8 weeks. While she was preparing for her third IVF attempt, Giuliana’s doctor insisted she have a mammogram and she recalls him saying:

“I will not get you pregnant, if possibly there’s a small risk that

Homeopathy – an intelligent choice

One of the world’s most intelligent women, Marilyn vos Savant has openly applauded the Swedish Supreme Court’s recent decision to allow doctors to recommend Homeopathy.

Marilyn’s high IQ scores, both as a child and adult, meant she was listed in the Guinness Book of World Records from 1986-89. She is now in the Guinness Hall of Fame. Named as one of fifty “Women of the New Millennium” by the White House, Marilyn shared her personal experience…… Read the rest...

Homeopathy and Contagion – Part 2

Homeopathy is briefly name-checked in the movie “Contagion.” Today I take a look at how homeopathy works in epidemics and pandemics.

“Contagion” out sold all other movies this weekend. It put bottoms on theater seats for two reasons: the cast is “A” list and flu is super scary. We are talking about an illness that could be our modern-day equivalent of the Black Plague. The SARS outbreak and the more recent Swine Flu panic gave us just a tiny foretaste of the havoc a cleverly adapted virus could wreak in these days of the itty-bitty, global village. Flu (and the … Read the rest...
