An average-weight woman without insurance coverage had unprotected sex and wants to avoid pregnancy. Describe the mechanism of action, pros, cons, and reliability of three different emergency contraception methods and make a recommendation for her specific situation.
Envision yourself as a physician whose patients sometimes ask about birth control. Provide a contraceptive method for each of the following patients, and explain why it would be appropriate: couple A, a man and woman who have intercourse regularly but never want to have children; couple B, a man and woman who have intercourse regularly and want to have children someday; and person C, a single woman who occasionally has intercourse with single men and does not wish to become pregnant. Be sure to include the level of protection against STDs that each person is likely to need.
Choose 2 birth control options. Compare and contrast them (how are they similar and how are they different) in detail. Include one paragraph for similarities, one for differences, and one summarizing your findings, including considerations for use for people throughout their lifespan. You may cite your text for some information, but also include and cite information from a reputable website (such as plannedparenthood.org) or other scholarly source. Minimum length= 3 paragraphs.

- Would ISCI be an option? Why or why not? Jan, a 32-year-old woman, and her husband, Darryl, have been married for 7 years. They have attempted to have a baby on several occasions. Five years ago, they had a first-trimester miscarriage, followed by an ectopic pregnancy later the same year. Jan continued to see her OB/GYN physician for infertility problems but was very dissatisfied with the response. After four miscarriages, she went to see a fertility specialist, who diagnosed her with severe endometriosis and polycystic ovarian disease (detected by hormone studies). The infertility physician explained that these two conditions were hampering her ability to become pregnant and thus making her infertile. She referred Jan to a genetic counselor. At the appointment, the counselor explained to Jan that one form of endometriosis (MIM 131200) can be a genetic disorder, and that polycystic ovarian disease can also be a genetic disorder (MIM 184700) and is one of the most common reproductive disorders among women. The counselor recommended that a detailed family history of both Jan and Darryl would help establish whether Jans problems have a genetic component and whether any of her potential daughters would be at risk for one or both of these disorders. In the meantime, Jan is taking hormones, and she and Darryl are considering alternative modes of reproduction. Using the information in Figure 16.4, explain the reproductive options that are open to Jan and Darryl.arrow_forwardIn order for sexual intercourse to produce a pregnancy, both partners must experience _____. a. orgasm b. ejaculation c. affection d. none of the abovearrow_forwardAbout half of pregnancies are unplanned, but women today ( or even their partners) have many safe and reliable choices if they want to prevent pregnancy .

- Each one of the different contraceptive methods has its pros and cons. Give an example of a method listed below and cite the pros and cons behind its use. Method of Contraception Example Pros Cons Natural Hormonal Barrier Permanent The debate on contraception is based on arguments emerging from the traditional and bioethical positions on contraception.

Make a stand regarding the issue on the basis of your personal beliefs and convictions.arrow_forwardPA is a 36yo F who started oral contraception 8 months ago. Over the last few weeks she reports some nausea and a few days of spotting before her period. She also reports her period has been heavier than usual. She reports this has not happened on her previous forms of birth control. Which of the following would be the MOST appropriate adjustment to her contraceptive? Consider an increase in the estrogen content X b. Consider an decrease in the estrogen content Consider an increase in the progestin content d. Consider a decrease in the progestin content a. C.arrow_forwardSome couple practice natural family planning (also known as the rhythm method of birth control), which involves abstaining from sexual intercourse during the time that a woman can become pregnant in her menstrual cycle. The egg only survives in the fallopian tube from 24 hours after ovulation, so conception can only happen during a 24-hour period each month. However, this form of contraceptive is very unreliable and is not recommended for couples who are actively trying to avoid pregnancy. Which of the following is NOT a reason why this form of birth control is unreliable? A. Sperm can survive in the fallopian tubes for 3 to 5 days. B. Ovulation can be affected by stress or illness. C. Women always ovulate on the same day of their menstrual cycle every month. D. It is difficult to predict exactly when in her cycle a woman ovulates.arrow_forward
