CULTURAL ASPECTS DURING PREGNANCY
Family planning: is defined as "educational, comprehensive medical or social activities and services which enable individuals, including minors, to determine freely the number and spacing of their children and to select the means by which this may be achieved.
Birth control: Birth control is the use of any practices, methods, or devices to prevent pregnancy from occurring in a sexually active woman. Also referred to as family planning, pregnancy prevention, fertility control, or contraception; birth control methods are designed either to prevent fertilization of an egg or implantation of a fertilized egg in the uterus. Birth control methods may be reversible or irreversible.
Contraception: (birth control) prevents pregnancy by interfering with the normal process of ovulation, fertilization, and implantation. There are different kinds of birth control that act at different points in the process.
Benefits of Family planning
Women/family
• Better health
• Less physical/emotional strain
• Improved quality of life
• Increased educational opportunities
• Increased economic opportunities
• More energy for household activities
• More energy for personal development and community activities
For Children:
• Better health
• More food and other resources available
• Greater opportunity for emotional support from parents
• Better opportunity for education
Factors that affect on the decision of using contraception:
• husband involvement
• Effectiveness--statistics show two numbers:
- Failure rate: no. of women per 100 who become pregnant after 1 yr. when using a birth control consistently & correctly
- Typical use failure rate: takes into account improper or inconsistent use
• Cost
• Ease of use
• Side effects
Family planning methods
• Hormone-based contraceptives
6 types
1) Oral contraceptives (pills)
2) Vaginal ring
3) Transdermal patch
4) Injected hormones
5) Hormonal implants

MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

5. How does Levonorgestrel work?
Levonorgestrel is in a class of medications called
progestins. It works by preventing the release of an egg from
the ovary or preventing fertilization of the egg by sperm
(male reproductive cells). It also may work by changing the
lining of the uterus (womb) to prevent development of a
pregnancy.
Joanna Cua
6. Effectiveness Rate
If you take it within 72 hours after you've had
unprotected sex, Plan B One-Step can reduce the risk of
pregnancy by up to 89%. If you take Plan B One-Step within
24 hours, it is about 95% effective.
Joanna Cua
7. Benefits and Risks
BENEFITS
● It's available to all women
who needs it.
● It’s available over the
counter.
● It works right away if used
as directed.

8. Side Effects
Some women may experience some side effects including;
● Period that is heavier, lighter, earlier, late
● Nausea
● Abdominal Pain
● Fatigue
● Headache
● Dizziness
● Breast Tenderness
● Vomiting
Joanna Cua
9. Drug Interactions
May change how your medications work or increase your
risk for serious side effects. Some products that may interact
with this drug include: drugs affecting liver enzymes that
remove levonorgestrel from your body (such as bosentan,
modafinil, nevirapine, HIV protease inhibitors including
ritonavir, griseofulvin, rifamycins including rifabutin, St. John's
wort, certain anti-seizure medicines including carbamazepine,
phenytoin, phenobarbital), sodium tetradecyl sulfate,
troleandomycin.
Joanna Cua
10. ● Teach patient that this is not an alternative to regular birth
control because it's not as effective as a regular birth control.
● Tell patient that if they're sexually active to consider having a
regular birth control method.
● This doesn't protect them from having any sexually
transmitted disease.
● Even though it prevent pregnancy, keep in mind that this
doesn't prevent the spread of HIV.
Patient Education
Joanna Cua
13. How to use?
Take a single dose PO within 5 days after intercourse.
How effective is it?
Up to 95% effective. The odds of pregnancy after
taking ella are about half the odds of pregnancy after
taking Plan B One-Step, Levonorgestrel, or Next Choice
pills.

18. Combination Birth Control Pills:
Methods of Action
● Also known as “The Pill”
● Contains a combination of estrogen and progestin
● Suppress ovulation by keeping ovaries from releasing eggs.
● Inhibit female fertility
Maria Cassandra May Dizon
19. How to use the method
properly
Two types of combination birth control pill
1.Conventional pack - which are packed in 28 day cycle or 21 day cycle.
● For the 21-pill packet, a pill is consumed daily for three weeks, followed by
a week of no pills. For the 28-pill packet, 21 pills are taken, followed by a
week of placebo or sugar pills.
2.Continuous dosing or extended cycle has 84 active pills and 7 inactive pills
and taken every day at the same time.
Maria May Dizon
20. How to use the method properly
Formulations may be:
1. Monophasic. In this type of combination birth control pill, each
active pill contains the same amount of estrogen and progestin.
2. Biphasic. In this type of combination birth control pill, active pills
contain two different combinations of estrogen and progestin.
3. Triphasic. In this formulation, active pills contain three different
combinations of estrogen and progestin. In some types, the
progestin content steadily increases — while in others the progestin
dose remains steady and the estrogen content increases.
Maria May Dizon
22. Effectiveness rate:
9 out of 10 women taking combination birth control
pill will get pregnant in the first year of use. With a
perfect use as prescribed, pregnancy rate may be as low
as 1 in 100 women every year
Maria May Dizon
23. Benefits and Risks
BENEFITS:
● Prevents pregnancy
● Eases menstrual cramps
● Shorten and regulates period
● Decrease incidents of ovarian
cyst
● Decreases acne
● Reduces the risk of ovarian and
endometrial cancer.
● Better control of monthly cycle
and a reduction in hot flashes
for women in perimenopause
RISKS:
● Blood clots in the legs
● Worsening of gallbladder disease
● Heart attacks and stroke (smoking
greatly increases the risk of these
complications)
● Depression
● Venous thromboembolism
Maria May Dizon
24. Side Effects/ Drug Interactions
● Nausea
● Headache
● Breast tenderness
● Breakthrough bleeding
● Moodiness
● Weight changes
● Spotting
● Antibiotics
(cephalosporins)
● Anticonvulsants (Tegretol)
● HIV drugs (Viracept)
Maria May Dizon
25. Complications/Contraindications
● Women with pre-existing cardiovascular disease
● Women who have tendency to form blood clots
● Women with severe obesity
● Women who are smoking
Patient Education
● Consult a healthcare provider about the start date
● Pick a time to regularly take the pill
● Follow health care provider’s instruction
● Be cautious with missed pills (read the instructions carefully)
● Do not take a break between each pack
Maria May Dizon
27. Method of Action:
POP can be generally classified into three types of doses:
● Very low dose POP contraceptives
● Intermediate dose progestin-only pills
● High dose progestin-only pills
How to use the method properly
There are two different types of progestogen-only pill:
● The three-hour progestogen-only pill must be taken within three hours of
the same time each day.
● The 12-hour progestogen-only pill must be taken within 12 hours of the
same time each day.
Genevieve Angayen
28. Effectiveness rate:
POPs are very much effective in preventing unwanted pregnancy up
to 99% if taken as directed.
Genevieve Angayen
29. Benefits:
● It does not interrupt sex
● You can use it when breastfeeding
● It is useful if you cannot take the hormone estrogen, which is in the
combined pill, contraceptive patch and vaginal ring
● You can use it at any age – even if you smoke and are over 35
● It can reduce the symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and painful
periods
● Pregnancy does not affect the baby
Risks:
● The progestogen-only pill is very safe to take. However, as with the
combined contraceptive pill, there are certain risks. These risks are
small. For most women, benefits of the progestogen-only pill outweigh
the risks.
● Ovarian cysts
● Breast cancer

● the epilepsy drugs carbamazepine, oxcarbazepine, phenytoin,
phenobarbital, primidone and topiramate
● St John’s wort (a herbal remedy)
● some antiretroviral medicines used to treat HIV (research suggests
interactions between these medicines and the progestogen-only pill can
affect the safety and effectiveness of both)
Genevieve Angayen
32. Patient Education:
● Choose a convenient time in the day to take your first pill.
● Continue to take a pill at the same time each day until the pack is
finished.
● Start your next pack of pills the following day. There is no break
between packs of pills.
● Get medical advice if you have a sudden or unusual pain in your
abdomen (tummy), or if your period is much shorter or lighter than
usual. It is possible that these are warning signs of an ectopic
pregnancy, although this is rare.
