CAPD (Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis) is a type of kidney dialysis where the abdomen lining acts as a filter. A cleansing solution is put into the abdomen, and waste products pass from the blood into this solution. The solution is then drained, removing waste from the body. CAPD (Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis) can be done at home. Patients perform regular exchanges of dialysis fluid themselves, allowing for flexibility and independence in managing their treatment. Watch this video as Dr. R. Balasubramaniyam, Chief Nephrologist, explains the difference between hemodialysis and CAPD as well as its benefits in detail.

Typically, a female menstruates every 28 days. On average, ovulation takes place on the 14th day. The first 14 days are called the follicular phase, and the second 14 days are called the luteal phase. It's important for women to have regular menstruation to ensure proper ovulation. There are several tests and methods to find out regular ovulation in women. If there is no ovulation, it may be caused by issues at the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, or ovarian level. Therefore, it's necessary to conduct all tests to identify the defect and provide necessary treatments. There are several treatment methods, including drugs, injections, tablets, etc. Before such treatments, thyroid and prolactin levels must be ensured to be normal. Initially, an ovulation induction is conducted, and then it is decided whether natural contact or Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) can be performed. If this fails, escalation to in vitro fertilization (IVF) is considered. Watch this video by Dr. P. M. Gopinath, Lead Consultant & Head - OBG & IVF, to understand the various types of tests and treatment procedures for Ovulation and Female Fertility.

Watch this video of Dr. N.S. Thirumaran, Senior Consultant - ENT to learn about the various types of hearing loss. Understand each type of hearing loss including conductive, sensorineural and mixed. Conductive hearing loss occurs when sound waves can't reach the inner ear due to problems in the outer or middle ear, like earwax build-up, ear infections, or issues with the eardrum or ossicles. Sensorineural hearing loss happens when the inner ear's nerve cells or the auditory nerve itself is damaged. It can be caused by aging, loud noise exposure, genetics or certain medical conditions. Mixed hearing loss is a combination of conductive and sensorineural hearing loss. It involves problems in both the outer, middle and the inner ear or auditory nerve, leading to hearing difficulties.
