Sarah Bennett+FollowNew Test Cracks the Miscarriage MysteryGame-changer alert: Scientists have finally developed a test that can spot if a woman’s womb lining isn’t prepping right for pregnancy—something that could be behind repeated miscarriages. Instead of blaming 'bad luck,' this test actually checks if the womb is a supportive place for an embryo. One woman who’d lost hope after five miscarriages tried it, got treatment, and now has two healthy kids. This could mean real answers (and hope) for so many women! #WomensHealth #PregnancyLoss #MedicalBreakthrough #Health #BodyHealth5110Share

Charles Christensen+FollowBlood Test Predicts Fast-Track Alzheimer’sA new study says a simple blood test could reveal if someone with mild memory issues is likely to develop severe Alzheimer’s—and fast. Researchers found that people with higher TyG scores (a marker for insulin resistance) declined four times quicker than those with lower scores. This could mean earlier support and access to clinical trials for those at risk. Imagine knowing your risk level with just a routine blood test! #AlzheimersAwareness #HealthNews #MedicalBreakthrough #Health70Share
Jacqueline Howard DDS+FollowAlzheimer’s Risk in a Routine Blood Test?!Wild update: a blood test already used for diabetes risk might predict how fast Alzheimer’s will progress. Researchers found that people with higher insulin resistance (measured by the TyG index) declined four times faster if they had Alzheimer’s. This could mean earlier interventions and more targeted treatments for those most at risk. Imagine catching the warning signs with a test you might already be getting! Science is seriously leveling up the fight against dementia. #Alzheimers #HealthNews #MedicalBreakthrough #Health #BodyHealth40Share
