Mental health is not just about overt behaviours---exposed socially, but there are more volatile intimate emotions that could devastate any human relations forever-though not overtly observed as abnormal--!
We will discuss about such emotions which are banned in social discussions and stigmatized.
"Sexual disorders and dysfunctions" could be present in any socioeconomic classes--not age, education, gender, culture specific.
Understanding these critical emotions on time and accepting it would save human relationships--avoiding suffering, inferiority complex, gender harassment and abuse.
Educate yourself and save relationships!!!
Mental health subject is originally stigmatized, moreover talking to someone about sexual disorders is as critical as finding a pearl into a deep ocean.........
The term personality refers to enduring qualities of an individual that are shown in his ways of behaving in a wide variety of circumstances. It is the sum total of a person’s intellectual, emotional and volitional traits; and it is revealed by his appearance, behavior, habits and relationships with other people, which differentiate him as unique individual.
mood disorders presentation is focused on mania, its definition, ICD -10 classification, stages of mania, its clinical features, etiology, medical management and nursing management.
Depression is the leading cause of disability world wide and is a major contributor to the overall global burden of diseases .At its worst depression can cause suicide .

Schizoaffective disorder is a chronic mental health condition characterized by a combination of symptoms of schizophrenia, such as hallucinations or delusions, and mood disorder symptoms, such as mania or depression. It's considered to be a relatively rare condition compared to schizophrenia or mood disorders alone. The exact cause of schizoaffective disorder is not fully understood, but it's believed to involve a combination of genetic, biological, and environmental factors.
Here are some key points about schizoaffective disorder:
Symptoms: The symptoms of schizoaffective disorder can vary widely from person to person but typically include a combination of psychotic symptoms (hallucinations, delusions, disorganized thinking) and mood symptoms (depression, mania, or a mix of both). These symptoms can occur at the same time or separately, and their severity can fluctuate over time.
Types: Schizoaffective disorder is divided into two main types based on the predominant mood symptoms:
Bipolar Type: When manic episodes are a part of the condition.
Depressive Type: When depressive episodes are predominant.
Diagnosis: Diagnosing schizoaffective disorder can be challenging because it shares symptoms with other mental health conditions such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or major depressive disorder. Diagnosis typically involves a thorough evaluation by a mental health professional, including a review of symptoms, medical history, and sometimes psychological testing.
Treatment: Treatment for schizoaffective disorder usually involves a combination of medication, psychotherapy, and support services. Antipsychotic medications are often prescribed to help manage psychotic symptoms, while mood stabilizers or antidepressants may be used to address mood symptoms. Psychotherapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy or supportive therapy, can help individuals manage their symptoms and improve functioning. Additionally, support from family, friends, and support groups can be beneficial.
Prognosis: The prognosis for schizoaffective disorder varies depending on factors such as the severity of symptoms, how early treatment is initiated, and the individual's response to treatment. With appropriate treatment and support, many people with schizoaffective disorder can lead fulfilling lives and manage their symptoms effectively.
It's important for individuals with schizoaffective disorder to work closely with mental health professionals to develop an individualized treatment plan and to engage in ongoing care to effectively manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life.

Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent
