It is indeed my privilege to be able to reach out to all AOGD members each month through the AOGD bulletin. Last month marked the celebration of the International Yoga Day on 21st June 2018. The AOGD members actively participated in the International Yoga Day organised at Rajpath. Public awareness forum was conducted for antenatal women on 20th June to emphasize the importance of yoga for the pregnant mother and her developing fetus. Trained Ayush instructors demonstrated asanas suitable for pregnant women in the antenatal OPD of Smt Sucheta Kriplani Hospital. Another important occasion was “Doctors Day” on 1st of July. The event was marked by planting of trees at Panchsheel Park by more than 100 enthusiastic members of FOGSI and AOGD. The slogan given by President FOGSI for the year was “Plant a tree.” The Clinical meeting was also organised by R&R Hospital on 29th June. We are committed to the theme of AOGD, “To empower providers to enhance women’s health”. Empowerment of Health care professionals requires sustained efforts from all of us. I hope you have found the contents of the journal informative. CME are also organized in this regard from time to time. World Population Day falls on 11th July so, this month’s issue of the AOGD Bulletin deals with “Contraception”. Another important day this month is the World Hepatitis Day on 28th July so this issue will also cover “Viral Hepatitis in Pregnancy”. I urge the members to organize contraception awareness programs for public and doctors. The Annual Conference is slated for 24th & 25th November with preconference workshops and we assure you a great scientifi c bonanza with wide coverage of all key areas in Obstetrics and Gynecology. Please block the dates for this most important event of the year. We hope the AOGD members will attend and participate in the Annual Conference in large numbers and also encourage their fellow colleagues and friends to become AOGD members to strengthen this organization.

On rare occasions, the vasectomy can fail and the vas deferens tubes can rejoin. Your semen specimen can be brought by yourself to the Urology Clinic only if: It can be in the laboratory within one hour of collection, and It is kept at room temperature during that time. It is suggested, however, that you create your semen specimen while you are at the Urology Clinic.

  • Sterilization As a Family Planning Method
    December 2018 | Fact Sheet Sterilization as a Family Planning Method Sterilization is a permanent method of contraception, and is the most commonly used form of family planning among couples both in the United States and worldwide. For men and women who no longer want to have children, sterilization offers a permanent, safe, cost-effective and efficacious way to prevent unintended pregnancy. Male sterilization is less common than female sterilization, but both are nearly 100% effective at preventing pregnancy. The Affordable Care Act’s no-cost coverage of sterilization has increased the affordability of the procedure for women, but it is still unclear the overall effect this will have on future utilization rates. Recent changes to insurance coverage policy, broader availability of long- acting contraceptives, as well as changes in the health care delivery system may reshape the choices that men and women make regarding the use of sterilization as a contraceptive method. This fact sheet explains the types of sterilization procedures available to women and men, reviews private insurance and Medicaid coverage policy, and discusses issues that affect availability in the U.S. Female Sterilization Female sterilization is an Figure 1 outpatient surgical Prevalence of Sterilization Among Women 15 to 44 Who procedure.
