Cause: Why symptoms and problems happen — and what you can do
Not every symptom has a single cause. Sometimes it's a medicine, sometimes a hormone shift, and sometimes lifestyle. This tag collects clear, actionable articles that explain why things happen to your body and what sensible steps you can take next.
What you'll find here
Short guides that point to real causes — not vague claims. Expect pieces on how drugs can cause side effects, how hormones or menopause change symptoms, and when infections or resistance explain recurring problems. You’ll also find safe alternatives to common meds and practical buying tips for prescription drugs online. Each article focuses on real-world advice you can use right away.

Look for sections on safety, when to seek medical help, and real-world tips like what to ask your pharmacist. If an article discusses alternatives, it will usually note evidence level and common side effects so you can weigh options with your clinician.
If you’re researching a symptom or a drug cause, use these articles as a starting point — not a final diagnosis. They’ll give you clear, practical info so your next conversation with a healthcare pro is focused and useful.
