Contraception in the Third Millennium by Elisabeth Aubeny,H. Meden-Vrtovec,Carme Coll Capdevila Pdf

Now more than ever, we have control over our fertility. Many forms of contraception are widely available to most of the population. An authoritative clinical reference, Contraception in the Third Millennium: A (R) evolution in Reproductive and Sexual Health examines the issues involved from all sides. The book covers the theoretical and practical aspects of present and future contraception and sexuality and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Topics include: reproductive health, progestins and antiprogestins, emergency contraception, family planning, contraception in perimenopause, optimizing contraceptive services, availability of abortion, strategies and prevention of STDs, and sexual health in adolescence and preventative behavior. It also touches on the relationship between sexuality, STDs, and contraception. The "Meet the Experts and Workshops" section provides answers to practical questions and the reality of contraception in many countries. We are now in the third generation of the contraceptive revolution. Although many methods have been available since the early part of this century, it is only the last three generations that have had a readily available source of contraception. The third generation has more choices, but they also face more issues, sooner, than previous generations. Despite the spread of contraception throughout the Western world, advances are still needed. Contraception in the Third Millennium: A (R) Evolution in Reproductive and Sexual Health provides a guide to new and recurring issues in achieving successful contraception and reproductive health care.

Too Hot to Handle by Jonathan Zimmerman Pdf

The first comprehensive history of sex education around the world Too Hot to Handle is the first truly international history of sex education. As Jonathan Zimmerman shows, the controversial subject began in the West and spread steadily around the world over the past century. As people crossed borders, however, they joined hands to block sex education from most of their classrooms. Examining key players who supported and opposed the sex education movement, Zimmerman takes a close look at one of the most debated and divisive hallmarks of modern schooling. In the early 1900s, the United States pioneered sex education to protect citizens from venereal disease. But the American approach came under fire after World War II from European countries, which valued individual rights and pleasures over social goals and outcomes. In the so-called Third World, sex education developed in response to the deadly crisis of HIV/AIDS. By the early 2000s, nearly every country in the world addressed sex in its official school curriculum. Still, Zimmerman demonstrates that sex education never won a sustained foothold: parents and religious leaders rejected the subject as an intrusion on their authority, while teachers and principals worried that it would undermine their own tenuous powers. Despite the overall liberalization of sexual attitudes, opposition to sex education increased as the century unfolded. Into the present, it remains a subject without a home. Too Hot to Handle presents the stormy development and dilemmas of school-based sex education in the modern world.

Contraceptive Research and Development by Institute of Medicine,Committee on Contraceptive Research and Development Pdf

The "contraceptive revolution" of the 1960s and 1970s introduced totally new contraceptive options and launched an era of research and product development. Yet by the late 1980s, conditions had changed and improvements in contraceptive products, while very important in relation to improved oral contraceptives, IUDs, implants, and injectables, had become primarily incremental. Is it time for a second contraceptive revolution and how might it happen? Contraceptive Research and Development explores the frontiers of science where the contraceptives of the future are likely to be found and lays out criteria for deciding where to make the next R&D investments. The book comprehensively examines today's contraceptive needs, identifies "niches" in those needs that seem most readily translatable into market terms, and scrutinizes issues that shape the market: method side effects and contraceptive failure, the challenge of HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases, and the implications of the "women's agenda." Contraceptive Research and Development analyzes the response of the pharmaceutical industry to current dynamics in regulation, liability, public opinion, and the economics of the health sector and offers an integrated set of recommendations for public- and private-sector action to meet a whole new generation of demand.

Science and Babies by Institute of Medicine,Suzanne Wymelenberg Pdf

By all indicators, the reproductive health of Americans has been deteriorating since 1980. Our nation is troubled by rates of teen pregnancies and newborn deaths that are worse than almost all others in the Western world. Science and Babies is a straightforward presentation of the major reproductive issues we face that suggests answers for the public. The book discusses how the clash of opinions on sex and family planning prevents us from making a national commitment to reproductive health; why people in the United States have fewer contraceptive choices than those in many other countries; what we need to do to improve social and medical services for teens and people living in poverty; how couples should "shop" for a fertility service and make consumer-wise decisions; and what we can expect in the futureâ€"featuring interesting accounts of potential scientific advances.
