Gender Identity This is how an individual senses their own identity either as masculine, feminine, or as a combination or the absence of both. Nature and biology will always play a part in this determination, but nurture, upbringing and environment also have a significant influence on it. Individuals may choose to openly express or repress their gender identity, therefore, what the outside world sees of them is different from what they feel or sense on the inside. The choice of outward expression depends on personal preferences, social norms and societal expectations. Top Health Assessments for Gender Identity DIET > SLEEP HYGIENE > PHYSICAL HEALTH > Vulnerability Calculator Background The human foetus starts its life with a genetic gender that is determined at the time of egg fertilisation; the XX is expected be a Female and the XY is expected be a male. However, the process of transforming into a particular gender is not an automatic one but instead, nature starts to develop every baby into a female, irrespective of their XX or XY chromosomes. Four main domains of the human will eventually reflect their gender and they must be carefully guided to a final destination from which their gender identity is derived. These are: Sexual Glands (Gonads) : What the internal sexual organs will be, either Testes or Ovaries Hormones : The types and levels of female and male hormones in their body Anatomy : What the outward genitals will look like Psyche : The mind and mentality, the attitude and psychology of their sexuality In the third month of pregnancy as the foetus progresses towards being a female, the Male Chromosome (Y), if present, must start to instruct each of the domains above to redirect towards being a male. How far the changes go before the baby is born is determined by; the absolute timing of the instructions the quality of the information sent out to them the responsiveness of each recipient organ or body part ​ If all of the domains reach the Male-end of the spectrum, the child is male, and if all the domains remain on the female-end, the child is female. In reality, it is unlikely with all the complexity, that all domains will perfectly reach one end of the spectrum at all times, and indeed it is more likely that one or more of the domains will rest comfortably somewhere in-between. Hence there could be in infinite possibility of gender states that are within the 'straight male' - 'straight female' polar spectrums, although many would have to be grouped together for the sake of simplicity. This could explain why a significant number of males have a ‘feminine’ side to them whilst a significant number of females possess a ‘masculine’ side. Different societies accept these to varying degrees and it helps to inflate the number of ‘conventional' male and female genders. However, those outside of these societal definitions are somewhat stigmatised, hence they regularly choose to hide their uniqueness. Those who dare to bare their truth may be pushed even further into an unnecessary minority, and they are often frustrated in their struggle to define their sexuality to a traditionally-unsympathetic rest-of-the-world. Gender identity challenges may also be as a result of other factors: Gender crystallisation continues until puberty. However, the gender direction in which the infant will develop is usually evident at the time of birth for the majority of cases. Environmental factors, stereotyping and societal expectations thus influence the gender sense of individuals during this journey to puberty Physical anatomy is the most visual of the differentiations hence it forms the basis of gender classification at birth. Because the other three important aspects are not readily visible at birth, they are often ignored Medical experience suggest that there are many instances where there is confusion about the external genitalia at birth (about 1 in every 100 births ). Doctors refer to this as 'Ambiguous Genitalia ' and they may offer many types of management of the situation When there had been confusion around the external genitalia, the adults responsible for the child prescribe a gender that they feel more appropriate, and the child is given a classification that may be at complete odds to what will eventually become their chosen identity It is somewhat clear therefore, that the individual is the only one qualified to define their own sexuality, and others must not judge them, just as people should not be judged by the colour of their eyes. ​ In this incredible complexity of nature, it should be easy to explain the various gender identities expressed by humans, and many communities had long realised these basic facts of life. The Samoan Fa'afafine are a worthy example that the rest of the world may learn from. Sadly, the human emotivity overrides objectivity more often than not, and we act based on personal prejudices that we formed from the safety of our comfortable circumstances. It is easy to forget that these safe circumstances were dealt to us by nature, for which we have no conscious part. For others dealt a different set of hands from ours, we routinely castigate. Nevertheless, humans can choose to be kind to others, and can therefore opt to be kind to all, regardless of the gender they identify as. Impact on General Wellbeing For the socially defined male and female, gender . Gender identity challenges are predominantly experienced by those who do not entirely fit the male/female classification. If well managed, it should have only minimal effects on their wellbeing. Poorly managed however, the effects can be significant on the mental, social and physical health of the individual.

Recreational Drugs These are drugs and chemicals that are taken for pleasure and enjoyment purposes, rather than for medical uses. The main groups of illicit recreational drugs used in international statistics are: Opioids Cocaine Amphetamines and Cannabis Others include plant products and synthetic hallucinogens. Top Health Assessments for Recreational Drugs DIET > SOCIAL SUPPORT > DRINKING WELLBEING > PHYSICAL HEALTH > Addiction Calculator Background Humans have used chemicals to enhance their pleasure since the beginning. Their choice of stimulation varies through generations, cultures and geographical locations. Alcohol, tobacco and caffeine can be classed as recreational drugs but they are not usually included in the discussions since they are not against the law in many communities. In fact, they are often regarded as a necessary accompaniment for many social gatherings. ​ Many people start to take these drugs to provide pleasure, or to improve their life in some way. However, constant use will lead to addiction, health problems and social dysfunction. Most of these drugs are illegal in many countries so their use will eventually lead to crime. Large organisations get involved with the recreational drug trade and a lot of profit is their reward. These organisations ensure a free and constant flow of the drugs to the consumer and as their back accounts grow, the health of the consumer diminishes. Impact on General Wellbeing The regular use of these drugs is likely to lead to addictions. The effect on your health may not be immediately visible, but there is enough proof that it is not good for the well-being.

Sexual Wellbeing This is the ability of individuals to have a happy and healthy sex life. It includes all aspects of human sexual contact from sexual thoughts, masturbation, penetrative and non-penetrative sex, and through to orgasms. Sexual health addresses the physical, social and mental wellbeing of individuals in relation to their sexuality. Respectful interaction and consent from all participants will likely lead to a pleasurable experience that is without abuse, discrimination or violence. Top Health Assessments for Sexual Wellbeing DIET > SOCIAL SUPPORT > SEXUAL WELLBEING > PHYSICAL HEALTH > RELATIONSHIPS > Background Sex happens and it always will. So had it been since the beginning of time and its methods remain fairly consistent. It could happen as a result of one individual conducting sexual acts on themselves, or it could be two or more people coming together to derive pleasure by exploring each other's bodies, especially through the sexual organs of their anatomies. The common objectives for sex include: To start the process of reproduction As an expression of affection and intimacy for a chosen partner Casual derivation of pleasure ​ Sexual Wellbeing describes a number of issues including the physical hygiene that is desirable for good sexual relationships, the sexual orientation variants that are possible and that must be recognised, the sexual organ varieties that exist, the methods used during sex and most importantly, the tolerance and acceptability of the methods of engagement by all participants. A significant percentage of people worry that they have problems with sex, and they want to have 'normal sex' like everybody else. Alas, there is no such thing as a universally normal method of sexual engagement. Methods vary with age, tribe, location, religion and every other classification methods that humans use. 'Whatever you enjoy sexually, somebody somewhere will think is disgusting, and whatever completely turns you off, somebody somewhere will find the most exciting thing imaginable'. (Gayle Rubin) One should endeavour to have sex, either with others or not. We are here because some individuals had sex, and it would be insincere of us to criticise such wondrous acts of procreation and pleasure. The ever-evolving modern world attempts to lessen the established joys of sex, and the younger generation happily cuts through the very branch of tree that they sit upon; this is not anything to be concerned about and people who appreciate sex should continue in their acts. This anti-climactic dis-libido can only be transient. For great sexual wellbeing, remember the pearls: Make time and space Communicate, and discuss each partners's needs Prioritise hygiene Limit the number of your sexual partners Have fun There are myths of sex that you should not believe. Below is a list as highlighted by the College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists. These are not correct and you should not make decisions based on them: The only true kind of sex involves someone putting their penis in someone else. Having sex on your own isn’t really sex and it is bad to have sex on your own too much Sex should always involve an orgasm Sex should always start with lots of foreplay Foreplay is for kids Men need an erection in order to have sex Men should always initiate sex and should be in control of what happens Men are always ready for sex and always want it Women rarely want sex and need to be talked into it Men should be able to last all night Women should have sex with their partner otherwise they will lose them All kissing and touching should lead to sex You should never have sex on your own if you have a partner If you fantasise about someone else you’re not happy with your partner If you have had sex with someone once you have to do it again If you have had one kind of sex it isn’t okay to say you don’t want to do that any more Pornography accurately represents what great sex – and sexy bodies – really look like Irrespective of ones' sexual orientation, race, gender or creed, all should have the opportunity to have safe sex and to experience a wonderfully satisfying wellbeing with respect to their sexuality. Good sex should neither be tame nor should it be extremely violent. Sex must always be consensual: it is a criminal act if it is enforced or performed on an unaware person. Let sex be sex; consented and perhaps a little adventurous. Impact on General Wellbeing Good sexual practices is beneficial for the individual's wellbeing Physical Draining Stressful Healthy Boosting Mental Draining Stressful Healthy Boosting Draining Stressful Lifestyle Healthy Boosting Caution Things can go wrong in the process of trying to maintain sex, sexuality and sexual wellbeing ​ STI - Sexually Transmitted Infections Infections can transmit from one partner to another during sexual encounters. Take precautions, use barriers and discuss symptoms with your medical care giver. Single-person sex is much less prone to STIs UTI - Urinary Tract Infections The genital passages can easily be infected because of their proximity to the sexual orifices. This is commoner in women because their urethra is much shorter than men's. Wash, Pee and Drink after sexual encounters Violence The forceful passion of sexual pleasure is sometimes blurred with senseless aggression. This is avoidable and it should not be tolerated Unwanted pregnancy Plan your encounters and use the appropriate contraceptive methods of your choice Messy Sex is a messy affair. Physically : Body fluids reach unto others and unto your surroundings. Fingers may be smelly, genitals become wet. Bed linen stains are regular. Anal sex may be accompanied by faeces Emotionally : There may be an anti-climax after sexual encounters. One may feel guilt, shame, embarrassment and vulnerability Partner not always available It is often that you will long for sexual accompaniment during periods when the regular partner may be unavailable. Good coping mechanisms should be in place. Other partners, if considered, will constitute infidelity in many cultures. This also increases the risk of STIs Not in open spaces Sexual urges occur rather randomly. Control your urges and adopt a good degree of privacy. Sex in public places is not acceptable in most communities, and may lead to criminal charges Pain The pleasures of sex may be disrupted by painful penetrative intercourse. Ensure the adequate use of lubricants. Invest time in foreplay to allow your body prepare better Serious Medical Events Some serious medical problems can occur during the rigorous intensity of sex. It is better not to be overzealous, and indeed to take breaks or ask for a time out if you feel physical or mental pressure. Brain bleed : Aneurysms in the brain can rupture during intense sexual exertion. This sometimes lead to death Heart Attack: The heart may be overworked and suffer during intense or prolonged sexual encounters. Take good breaks and consider Aerobic exercises to increase your heart resilience Fractured penis: Vigorous thrusting of the female pelvis unto an erect penis pointing upwards (riding position, receptive partner on top) can snap the base of the penis to create a serious medical emergency. The penis bearing male should have their hands on the female pelvis to guide the movement in the most acceptable manner to them, and to register any discomfort before real damage is done. Penis fracture may lead to permanent damage and inability to have further erections. Tell tale signs Sexual relationships, sex and sexuality all leave tell tale signs behind. Inasmuch as we should all be proud of our sexuality, we should endeavour to manage the story we wish to tell others about ourselves, and the extent to which we desire to show our closely guarded secrets to the outside world. Benefits A good sexual wellbeing adds value to life Individuals often feel: Satisfied with self, partner, and life Appreciated, Joyful Post coital euphoria They often have: Better sleep Reduced risk of prostate cancer Good feeling of self-worth Applicable Remedies > Further Reading ​

Although many remedies do not actually seem to help particular situations, they are still regularly sold to paying clients. Unnecessary health care is profitable to the provider, and costly to the receiver without any benefits to their health. It may however be harmful. This applies to conventional, alternative and complimentary medicine. ​ The reasons for offering unnecessary care include: Healthcare providers trying to increase their profit Defensive practice: caregivers trying to cover 'all aspects of care' even if it is unnecessary: this may be seen as reducing their chances of being sued by the client Self-referral by the client: Patients demand to have a test, treatment or surgery that is not needed Poor practice and misleading advertisement by the care provider. Examples include: Yearly cervical Cancer screening for women with normal pap smear HPV test results Screening cancer patients in an advanced state for other cancers Using Antibiotics for Virus Infections Performing unnecessary blood and radiological tests Uninformed Government policy Impact on General Wellbeing The use of unnecessary care is generally not positive for the general health of the individual.
