New cure for heavy periods Panipat, December 3 Dr Davinder Batra and Dr Neeru Batra of DN Hospital told NCR Tribune there was no need for women to go in for major surgeries like hysterectomy (uterus removal) as the new technique was a simple 30-minute procedure which required no stay in the hospital. Heavy periods is a cause of concern for women as it leads to significant blood loss and anaemia. Excessive bleeding is on account of fibroids in the uterus or dysfunction uterine bleeding (DUB). Drugs, which provide only temporary relief, are not much effective for such patients. About 20 per cent women suffer from this disease. In the case of UBT, the inner lining of the uterus, which is the cause of excessive bleeding, is ablated. Thus excessive periods are controlled. Patients returns to normal menses after the UBT, Dr Neeru Batra said, adding that this way major surgery like the removal of uterus was avoided. The other advantages of the technique are that there is no pain and scars, Dr Davinder Batra said. On the success rate of the therapy, the doctors claimed the procedure was successful in over 95 per cent patients. So far, more than three lakh patients had been treated the world over through UBT. The treatment was specially useful for the patients suffering from hypertension, diabetes and a heart problem since performing major surgery on them became difficult. However, thermachoice procedure should not be used if one wants to become pregnant in the future. Pregnancy after the thermachoice may be risky for the mother and the baby because the endometrial lining of the uterus has been removed, Dr Neeru Batra added. |

Orissa school on a scoring spree New Delhi, December 3 Soma Ram scored the consolation goal for Chattisgarh in the 24th minute. In a Group VI match, Delhi’s Mamta Modern School, Vikaspuri, defeated Goda Varma Raja Sports School, Thiruvanathapuram (Kerala) by a lone goal, but the victory margin was too slender to help them progress further in the tournament. They needed to score a victory by at least five goals to qualify for the quarter-final. But the Kerala boys put up a spirited performance to restrict Mamta to just a lone-goal victory. In fact, G V Raja should have shared points, but Justin Stephen’s shot rebounded off the cross bar.

quarter-final. Thursday’s fixtures: Vivekanand Vidyapeeth, Bustar vs Govt High School, Kokrajhar (Assam) (9 a m); Town High School vs Govt.
