It was a busy Call duty. Many angels in human forms delivered safely by His grace. Even when bleeding tried to complicate some, God came through for us.

🧼 *Clean hands = safer care!*

🫧 Since 2009, WHO’s *SAVE LIVES: Clean Your Hands* campaign reminds us of one simple truth: *clean hands save lives.*

👉🏽 In 2026, the message is clear: “Action saves lives.”

*Why it matters:*

🏥 Every day, patients get infections during care, many of them preventable.

📊 Up to 1 in 10 patients globally are affected by healthcare-associated infections.

💊 These infections fuel antibiotic resistance, increase costs, and can lead to disability or death.

*The good news?*

👉🏽 Proper hand hygiene at the right moments can stop many of these infections.

*But challenges remain:*

🚱 Lack of clean water and sanitation in some facilities
⚖️ Inequality in access to safe care

*WHO is calling on countries and health workers to:*

✅ Follow best hand hygiene practices
✅ Track and improve compliance
✅ Make clean care a priority everywhere

Because safer care starts with *clean hands — for everyone.*

Someone asked why Uterine fibroids are not removed during Caesarean Section for women that have them co-existing with pregnancy.

My answer👇

It all depends on the size, location of the fibroid, your haemodynamic status(how stable you are) and the experience of the surgeon. If the fibroid is not blocking the operation site especially the line of incision on the uterus (womb), there's no point touching it because you may bleed to death as the uterus is highly vascularized(rich blood supply) during pregnancy especially at term and during labour but if the surgeon is a senior Obstetrician with enough experience, he may decide to remove the fibroid as he will be able to handle any complication that may follow.
Thank you.

Hello Fam. We actually need to talk about this thing called abnormal uterine bleeding and its causes. I almost lost a patient who presented late following months of abnormal bleeding from the va-gina, a young lady o!

Are you above 30 -- 35 years old and trying to conceive? Come with me👇

When trying to improve egg quality for conception, the goal is to support the egg during its approximately 90-day(3 months) maturation period (before ovulation).
No supplement can “create new eggs,” but some can improve the environment and function of the existing ones—especially mitochondrial energy, hormone balance, and oxidative stress.

Here are the most evidence-supported supplements:
🔑 1. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10 / Ubiquinol)
Most important supplement for egg quality.
It supports mitochondrial energy in egg cells (eggs need a lot of energy)
Acts as an antioxidant and protects egg DNA from damage.
Shown to improve egg quality, fertilization, and embryo quality in studies.
👉 Especially useful if:
Age > 30–35
Low ovarian reserve
IVF preparation

🧠 2. Myo-Inositol
Improves ovulation and egg quality, especially in PCOS(Polycystic ovarian syndrome).
Enhances insulin sensitivity and hormonal balance.

🌿 3. Omega-3 Fatty Acids (Fish oil)
Reduces inflammation
Improves hormone production and blood flow to ovaries.
Linked with better egg and embryo quality.

☀️ 4. Vitamin D
Supports ovarian function and implantation.
Low levels are linked to reduced fertility.

🧬 5. Folate(folic acid):
Essential for DNA synthesis and healthy egg development.
Also prevents neural tube defects in pregnancy.

💊 6. DHEA (ONLY with doctor supervision)
May improve egg quality and ovarian reserve in women with diminished reserve.

🛡️ 7. Other Antioxidants (supportive)
Vitamin E etc
👉 Help reduce oxidative stress that damages eggs.

Let's talk about the advantages/benefits of Early Ultrasound Scan in pregnancy because it can actually not be over emphasized especially in ruling out ectopic pregnancy which can be life threatening(bleeding) if it ruptures..

Early ultrasound scan in pregnancy (usually done in the first trimester, before 12–14 weeks) has several important advantages and is recommended from 6th to 13 weeks; and very helpful to us Obstetricias. Some of its advantages include:

1. Accurate dating of pregnancy
Measurement of the crown–rump length (CRL); length of the developing embryo provides the most precise estimation of gestational age.
It helps establish the expected date of delivery (EDD) more accurately than last menstrual period, especially in women with irregular cycles.

2. Confirmation of intrauterine pregnancy
Confirms that the pregnancy is located inside the uterus.
Helps exclude or detect ectopic pregnancy early, which can be life-threatening like I mentioned earlier.

3. Detection of fetal viability
Demonstrates fetal heartbeat and movement.
Helps detect early pregnancy failure or miscarriage.

4. Identification of multiple pregnancy:
Detects twins or higher-order multiples early like Triplets etc.

5. Early detection of abnormalities
Can identify major structural anomalies (e.g., anencephaly-baby without brain)

6. Assessment of maternal pelvic structures
Evaluates uterus and surroundings for abnormalities such as fibroids, ovarian cysts, or masses.

7. Detection of gestational trophoblastic disease
Helps diagnose molar pregnancy early.

8. Baseline for future comparison
Provides a reference point for monitoring fetal growth and development in later scans.

9. Reassurance to the mother
Seeing the fetus and heartbeat reduces anxiety and improves maternal confidence in the pregnancy.

As I walked in to the labour room, there she was, far gone in labour but progress seemed not adequate or slow. I moved closer, noticed she was sweating, looked weak and tired(every woman who has gone through labour knows it can be exhausting towards the end).
The midwife already gathered her delivery things waiting for the baby that wasn't readily forthcoming.
With my quick assessment, I requested her blood sugar be checked and for a drip with glucose be given to her for some energy which was done immediately. Sprite was also given to her to sip.

People monitoring her were already giving up and requesting for her to be prepared for C/S, I felt for her and took over her care. Went on to check her and as God may have it, I was able to sweep around the v.g, lo and behold, the baby's head popped out and everyone was amazed at the maneuver.
Imagine, the feeling on all the faces around as this baby that have kept people waiting popped out. Yes, Dr. Rose hands are blessed and it can only be God. And it ended in praises.

Hello Fam. Does fibroid really shrink and disappear?
Someone with experience should gist me abeg or are people just deceiving people and collecting their hard earned money as most of them still end up on our tables for removal after spending so much on those herbal products.
