ADVICE

Improve Bladder Emptying With Positioning

  • Sit fully on the toilet (or use a squatty potty) to relax the pelvic floor and aid bladder emptying.
  • Practice reverse Kegels and pelvic floor exercises for 4–6 weeks while ensuring proper hydration and magnesium intake.
INSIGHT

Observational Study Doesn’t Prove Melatonin Harm

  • The cited study was observational and examined insomnia and heart disease, not melatonin causally.
  • Melatonin use likely flagged underlying insomnia and heart disease rather than causing heart attacks directly.
ADVICE

Be Cautious With Coffee Enemas While Nursing

  • Avoid coffee enemas while breastfeeding if possible because caffeine can be absorbed and affect the baby.
  • If you insist, reduce coffee concentration to ~1–1.5 tablespoons per 1,000 mL and do it earlier in the day to minimize exposure.
