Do sterile gloves decrease wound infection rates (compared to clean nonsterile gloves) when minor skin surgery is done? No. Sterile and nonsterile gloves yield a comparable number of skin infections. So, if your doctor wears clean nonsterile gloves while taking off your minor skin lesion, that’s okay.
How long do hot flashes associated with menopause last? They last a median of 7.4 years. (Yes, a really long time.) It was even found that women who begin to have frequent symptoms early in their perimenopause experience, have symptoms for a median of 11.8 years, including 9.4 years AFTER their final menstrual period. Black women experience hot flashes longer with median time of 10.1 years. Good news for those who are Japanese and Chinese as hot flashes occur for a median of 5 years.
