Q:

If you are a man, what can you do to help to increase the chances of conception?

A:

If you are the male side of the equation that's trying to conceive there's only a few things you need to worry about. Stay away from marijuana, it actually makes the sperm a little bit slower and a little bit more confused. Another thing to remember is to stay away from things that can actually increase the temperature of your testicles.  A couple of things would be hot tubs, or wearing jockey shorts, that actually hold the testicles closer to the body.

Q:

How do programmable insulin pumps work?

A:

Insulin pumps can be very effective for many diabetic people in managing their blood sugar levels. Insulin pumps that are programmable can help determine how much insulin a person needs based on their blood sugar levels and how much carbohydrates are in their meals. This can reduce any errors in calculating insulin needs. If you have diabetes and have questions about insulin pumps, you can ask your family doctor.
