The usual range for resting heart rate is anywhere between 60 and 90 beats per minute. Generally, a lower heart rate at rest implies more efficient heart function and better cardiovascular fitness. For example, a well-trained athlete might have a normal resting heart rate closer to 40 beats a minute. Above 90 is considered high. Over 100 beats per minute is called tachycardia. This can cause dizziness, lightheadedness, or a fluttering in the chest.
Increased heart rate or pulse is higher number of times a person's heart beats per minute. A normal heart rate depends on the individual, age, body size, heart conditions, whether the person is sitting or moving, medication use and even air temperature.

The need to urinate more than one usually does. Dysuria is any discomfort associated with urination. Abnormally frequent urination (e.g., once every hour or two) is termed urinary frequency - an abrupt, strong, often overwhelming, need to urinate. Medical term for excessive passing of urine (increase in total volume) is Polyuria. An excessive volume of urination for an adult is more than 2.5 liters of urine per day. Normally, adults pass between 3 cups (700 milliliters) and 3 quarts (3 liters). of However, this can vary depending on the liquid intake. Yawning is involuntary opening of the mouth with respiration, breathing first inward, then outward. It is often caused by the power of suggestion. Arousal, attention, personality and intelligence could all be influencing factors in susceptibility to contagious yawning. A number of studies found that yawns on video played to a classroom for five minutes would induce a responsive yawn in 55% of the audience, but neither videos nor words will work in children below the age of six years. The greater sensitivity to ‘psychological’ yawn stimuli might reflect enhanced self- and social awareness, related to reading ability. It could be mediated by specific brain cells called “mirror neurons” that allow to learn and empathize if yawning is accompanied by other common anxiety symptoms, it may be due to an anxiety disorder. It is also associated with tiredness, sleepiness, stress and hunger. According to one theory, bored or tired individuals don't breathe as deeply as usual, taking in less oxygen and yawning helps to compensate for it. Excessive yawning is yawning that occurs frequently (1 to 4 yawns per minute over an extended period of time), sometimes without any apparent reason. Increased yawning often precedes seizures and migraine headaches, in people with epilepsy and migraines. Yawning excessively may also occur in the presence of a heart defect or disease. Disorder of digestive function, a condition of impaired digestion characterized by vague discomfort in the upper abdomen (nausea) or chest (heartburn), usually soon after meals. Indigestion, also known as dyspepsia or upset stomach, is the condition, while heartburn, fullness, nausea, bloating, excess gas, pain, burning and gnawing are symptoms. monthly discharge of blood from the uterus of non-pregnant women. Menstrual period usually lasts for 2-7 days. Moderate flow means that about 7 soaked regular-sized sanitary products were used during these days. Heavy flow means 9 to 12 soaked regular-sized sanitary products, while around 16 means that the flow is very heavy. Very heavy and prolonged periods, sometimes with passing big clots (menorrhagia) could be also very painful (dysmenorrhea). It happens when estrogen levels are higher and progesterone levels are lower than normal. relatively long lasting state of mind or feeling. Moods differ from simple emotions in that they are less specific, less intense, and less likely to be triggered by a particular stimulus or event. Mood can last for one or two days, while emotions can come and go relatively quickly. Moods have two main dimensions— positive affect and negative affect consisting of positive emotions such as excitement, self-assurance, and cheerfulness at the high end, and boredom, sluggishness, and tiredness at the low end; and negative nervousness, stress, and anxiety at the high end, and relaxation, tranquility, and poise at the low end. fluid produced by mucous membranes (mucosa), lining various cavities in the body, moistening and protecting the lining of the digestive, reproductive (like cervical mucus), respiratory, and urinary tracts, and other body systems. Mucus can be thin or thick, clear, green, yellow or white. Mucus found on stool is usually white. In small amounts it is usually normal. Increased amounts of mucus in the stool can occur in Irritable Bowel Syndrome, allergies/celiac disease, with constipation or diarrhea, or more serious conditions such as bowel obstruction, cancers of the colon or rectum. Green or yellow mucus in stool could be caused by a parasitic infection or yeast overgrowth. Mucus expelled by coughing (sputum) is called phlegm. It is a water-based gel consisting of glycoproteins, immunoglobulins, lipids and other substances. Its color can vary from transparent to pale or dark yellow and green, from light to dark brown, and even to dark grey depending on the constituents. stale, moldy, earthy or dump smell, often associated with "unclean" or "spoiled". Chemicals causing musty smells are mostly produced by Actinomycetes, Streptomyces, Cyanobacteria and other bacteria, fungi and algae. Examples of compounds responsible for musty odor are Geosmin (muddy, resembling damp soil, produced by Streptomyces), trichloroanisole (TCA, smelling like damp cellar, usually produced from chlorinated phenolic compounds by Aspergillus, Penicillium, Actinomycetes, Botrytis cinerea, Rhizobium, or Streptomyces), tribromoanisole (TBA, produced from brominated phenolic compounds by the same bacteria), dimethylmethoxypyrazine (obnoxious musty odor that might be caused by Pseudomonas and Actinobacteria), 2-methylisobomeol (earthy, peat-like), 3-methylbut-2-ene-1-thiol, cis-3-octenal, nonanal, decanal. Indoor mildew odor in old houses has been shown to be associated with allergic symptoms, asthma, chronic bronchitis, vision and sleep issues. A type of spontaneous orgasm during sleep Ejaculation during sleep for a male, or lubrication of the vagina for a female. In 1953, Alfred Kinsey found that nearly 40% of the 5,628 women he interviewed experienced at least one nocturnal orgasm or "wet dream," by the time they were forty-five years old. A smaller study published in the Journal of Sex Research in 1986 found that 85% of the women who had experienced nocturnal orgasms had done so by the age of twenty-one or earlier. Women who have orgasms during sleep usually have them several times a year. Dr. Kinsey and his colleagues defined female nocturnal orgasm as sexual arousal during sleep that awakens one to perceive the experience of orgasm. Similar studies find that a much higher percentage of boys and men experience wet dreams. Relatively small studies conducted in the 50s found that nocturnal orgasm was reported by about 40% of women with the diagnosis of a neurosis or psychosis, and as opposed to only 6-8% of control women. Studies conducted in the 80s found that the incidence of nocturnal orgasms in healthy women is much higher and is associated with positive attitude to sex, knowledge about nocturnal orgasms and sexual liberalism. Later studies concluded that it was more about “erotic responsiveness" than other factors. Natural process by which a mature follicle in the ovary opens to release the egg (secondary oocyte, female germ cell enclosed in a sticky blob of mucus-like material, the cumulus mass). Ovulation can be affected by stress, illness or disruption of normal routines. Some women experience pain, series of cramps or aching near ovaries during ovulation called Mittelschmerz (middle pain, see also nocturnal orgasms) and a heightened sense of smell. An egg lives 12-24 hours after leaving the ovary. The few days surrounding ovulation (from approximately days 10 to 18 of a 28 day cycle), constitute the most fertile phase is when a mature egg is released from the ovary, pushed down the fallopian tube, and is available to be fertilized. Approximately every month an egg will mature within one of your ovaries. |
