    International Journal of Impotence Research (2005) 17, S44–S51 & 2005 Nature Publishing Group All rights reserved 0955-9930/05 $30.00 www.nature.com/ijir Physiology of female sexual function and dysfunction JR Berman1* 1Director Female Urology and Female Sexual Medicine, Rodeo Drive Women’s Health Center, Beverly Hills, California, USA Female sexual dysfunction is age-related, progressive, and highly prevalent, affecting 30–50% of American women. While there are emotional and relational elements to female sexual function and response, female sexual dysfunction can occur secondary to medical problems and have an organic basis. This paper addresses anatomy and physiology of normal female sexual function as well as the pathophysiology of female sexual dysfunction. Although the female sexual response is inherently difficult to evaluate in the clinical setting, a variety of instruments have been developed for assessing subjective measures of sexual arousal and function. Objective measurements used in conjunction with the subjective assessment help diagnose potential physiologic/organic abnormal- ities. Therapeutic options for the treatment of female sexual dysfunction, including hormonal, and pharmacological, are also addressed.

  • Masturbation
    MASTURBATION Curriculum for Excellence Links to health and wellbeing outcomes for Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenthood I am aware of my growing body and I am learning the correct names for its different parts and how they work. HWB 0-47b HWB 1-47b I understand my own body's uniqueness, my developing sexuality, and that of others. HWB 3-47a HWB 4-47a Introduction Masturbation can seem a daunting subject to teach, but it is very important for young people to learn about appropriate touch. School provides an ideal learning environment for this, alongside an opportunity to work alongside parents to tackle this issue. If young people do not learn about masturbation and appropriate touch when they are teenagers, they are in danger of displaying inappropriate behaviour as an adult, often in public, which can lead to more serious repercussions. Staff may worry that teaching about masturbation can provoke a sudden obsession with genitalia, but this is usually a temporary reaction and one which can be successfully dealt with by one-to-one work through Social Stories. Having a policy on Managing Sexualised Behaviour may also be beneficial, outlining an approach to inappropriate touching in the classroom. TOUCHING OURSELVES You will need 2 body outlines/ Bodyboards (male and female). Recap on names of Parts Of The Body. Ask the students which are PRIVATE BODY parts (those covered by underwear- breasts, penis, vagina, anus, clitoris etc.) Tell the group ‘’these are Private Body Parts, not for everyone to touch and see. But sometimes people like to touch their own private body parts to make themselves feel nice and sexy.

  • F.8 Ethinylestradiol-Etonogestrel.Pdf
    General Items 1. Summary statement of the proposal for inclusion, change or deletion. Here within, please find the evidence to support the inclusion Ethinylestradiol/Etonogestrel Vaginal Ring in the World Health Organization’s Essential Medicines List (EML). Unintended pregnancy is regarded as a serious public health issue both in developed and developing countries and has received growing research and policy attention during last few decades (1). It is a major global concern due to its association with adverse physical, mental, social and economic outcomes. Developing countries account for approximately 99% of the global maternal deaths in 2015, with sub-Saharan Africa alone accounting for roughly 66% (2). Even though the incidence of unintended pregnancy has declined globally in the past decade, the rate of unintended pregnancy remains high, particularly in developing regions. (3) Regarding the use of contraceptive vaginal rings, updated bibliography (4,5,6) states that contraceptive vaginal rings (CVR) offer an effective contraceptive option, expanding the available choices of hormonal contraception. Ethinylestradiol/Etonogestrel Vaginal Ring is a non-biodegradable, flexible, transparent with an outer diameter of 54 mm and a cross-sectional diameter of 4 mm. It contains 11.7 mg etonogestrel and 2.7 mg ethinyl estradiol. When placed in the vagina, each ring releases on average 0.120 mg/day of etonogestrel and 0.015 mg/day of ethinyl estradiol over a three-week period of use. Ethinylestradiol/Etonogestrel Vaginal Ring is intended for women of fertile age. The safety and efficacy have been established in women aged 18 to 40 years. The main advantages of CVRs are their effectiveness (similar or slightly better than the pill), ease of use without the need of remembering a daily routine, user ability to control initiation and discontinuation, nearly constant release rate allowing for lower doses, greater bioavailability and good cycle control with the combined ring, in comparison with oral contraceptives.

  • The Mythical G-Spot: Past, Present and Future by Dr
    Global Journal of Medical research: E Gynecology and Obstetrics Volume 14 Issue 2 Version 1.0 Year 2014 Type: Double Blind Peer Reviewed International Research Journal Publisher: Global Journals Inc. (USA) Online ISSN: 2249-4618 & Print ISSN: 0975-5888 The Mythical G-Spot: Past, Present and Future By Dr. Franklin J. Espitia De La Hoz & Dra. Lilian Orozco Santiago Universidad Militar Nueva Granada, Colombia Summary- The so-called point Gräfenberg popularly known as "G-spot" corresponds to a vaginal area 1-2 cm wide, behind the pubis in intimate relationship with the anterior vaginal wall and around the urethra (complex clitoral) that when the woman is aroused becomes more sensitive than the rest of the vagina. Some women report that it is an erogenous area which, once stimulated, can lead to strong sexual arousal, intense orgasms and female ejaculation. Although the G-spot has been studied since the 40s, disagreement persists regarding the translation, localization and its existence as a distinct structure. Objective: Understand the operation and establish the anatomical points where the point G from embryology to adulthood. Methodology: A literature search in the electronic databases PubMed, Ovid, Elsevier, Interscience, EBSCO, Scopus, SciELO was performed. Results: descriptive articles and observational studies were reviewed which showed a significant number of patients. Conclusion: Sexual pleasure is a right we all have, and women must find a way to feel or experience orgasm as a possible experience of their sexuality, which necessitates effective stimulation.

Abstract: While contraceptive drugs have enabled many people to decide when they want to have a baby, more than 100 million unintended pregnancies each year in the world may indicate the contraceptive requirement of many people has not been well addressed yet. The vagina is a well- established and practical route for the delivery of various pharmacological molecules, including contraceptives. This review aims to present an overview of different contraceptive methods focusing on the vaginal route of delivery for contraceptives, including current developments, discussing the potentials and limitations of the modern methods, designs, and how well each method performs for delivering the contraceptives and preventing pregnancy.

  • Hormonal Iuds Are Small ‘T- Shaped’ Plastic Devices That Are Inserted Into the Uterus (Womb)
    HORMONAL INTRAUTERINE DEVICES (IUDs) – (Mirena and Kyleena) What are the hormonal intrauterine devices (IUDs)? The hormonal IUDs are small ‘T- shaped’ plastic devices that are inserted into the uterus (womb). The hormonal IUDs contains progestogen. This is a synthetic version of the hormone progesterone made naturally by the ovaries. The hormonal IUDs have a coating (membrane) that controls the slow release of progestogen into the uterus. There are two different hormonal IUDs available in Australia. They are sold as Mirena and Kyleena. How effective are the hormonal IUDs? The hormonal IUDs are more than 99% effective at preventing pregnancy and can last for up to 5 years. They can be used for contraception until 55 years of age if inserted when you are 45 years of age or older. How does the hormonal IUD work? IUDs affect the way sperm move and survive in the uterus (womb), stopping sperm from meeting and fertilising an egg. IUDs can also change the lining of the uterus, making it difficult for a fertilised egg to stick to the lining to start a pregnancy. The hormonal IUDs also work by thickening the fluid around the cervix (opening to the uterus/womb). This helps to prevent sperm from entering. Sometimes the hormonal IUDs can also stop the ovaries from releasing an egg. What are differences between Mirena and Kyleena hormonal IUDs? Both Mirena and Kyleena are very effective methods of contraception that last for up to 5 years. Mirena is 99.9% effective and Kyleena is 99.7% effective. Mirena may be used until 55 years of age if inserted when you are 45 years of age or older, whereas Kyleena needs to be replaced every 5 years for all ages.

What emotional changes occur during puberty? During your teen years, hormones can cause you to have strong feelings, including sexual feelings.

  • ASCCP Clinical Practice Statement Evaluation of the Cervix in Patients with Abnormal Vaginal Bleeding Published: February 7, 2017
    ASCCP Clinical Practice Statement Evaluation of the Cervix in Patients with Abnormal Vaginal Bleeding Published: February 7, 2017 All women presenting with abnormal vaginal bleeding should receive evaluation of the cervix and vagina, which should include at minimum visual inspection (speculum exam) and palpation (bimanual exam). If cervical or vaginal lesions are noted, appropriate tissue sampling is recommended, which can include Pap testing in addition to biopsy with or without colposcopy. These recommendations concur with those of ACOG Practice Bulletin #128 and Committee Opinion #557.1,2 The purpose of this article is to remind clinicians that Pap testing, as a form of tissue sampling, can be an important part of the workup of abnormal bleeding, and can be performed even if the patient is not due for her next screening test if there is clinical concern for cancer. Due to confusion amongst clinicians that has come to our attention, we wish to highlight the distinction between recommendations for diagnosis of cervical abnormalities including cancer amongst women with abnormal bleeding and recommendations for screening for cervical cancer amongst asymptomatic women. Screening guidelines recommend Pap testing at 3 year intervals for women ages 21-29, and Pap and HPV co-testing at 5 year intervals between the ages of 30-65 (with continued Pap testing at 3 year intervals as an option). These evidence- based guidelines are designed to maximize the detection of pre-cancer and minimize colposcopies. In addition, clinical practice guidelines no longer support routine pelvic examinations for cancer screening in asymptomatic women as this has not been shown to prevent cancer deaths.3,4,5 Consequently, physicians now perform fewer pelvic exams.
