Egg donation, for women, is no different. Ethicists and some women’s health advocates worry that lucrative
payments are enticing young women with credit card debts and heavy tuition fees to sell eggs without seriously
evaluating the risks.
The document discusses adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and their long-term effects on health and functioning. It summarizes findings from the original ACE study which found strong associations between ACEs like abuse, neglect, and household dysfunction, and later health problems. Childhood trauma can affect stress response and be passed down epigenetically. Assessing ACE scores may help tailor treatment for patients. Understanding these impacts has implications for how providers screen for and address trauma histories.

This document discusses the National Eating Disorder Association's (NEDA) Walk for Her event to raise awareness and funds for eating disorders. It notes that eating disorders affect over 30 million people yearly in the US, yet they remain poorly understood and underfunded. NEDA works to support those affected by eating disorders and increase prevention and treatment efforts. The upcoming NEDA Walk in Tulsa, Oklahoma on October 16th aims to bring more people together in the fight against these mental illnesses. Participants can register online and donations are also being accepted from those unable to attend.
The document summarizes findings from the Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) study and discusses its implications for domestic violence within the Asian American Pacific Islander community. The ACEs study found that traumatic childhood experiences were more common than previously thought, and increased ACE scores correlated with greater health risks. Exposure to ACEs also made domestic violence in adulthood more likely. However, domestic violence is underreported within the AAPI community due to cultural taboos, patriarchal systems, and isolation. The document calls for community efforts to condemn violence, educate the public, and develop culturally appropriate interventions and support systems to address domestic violence facing AAPI populations.
This document discusses a Supreme Court ruling in the UK regarding two Scottish midwives who objected to abortion on religious grounds. The court ruled that while their objection to direct participation in abortions would be respected, they could not opt out of general management duties that may indirectly involve abortion care. The author, a former midwife, agrees with this ruling, arguing that allowing midwives to refuse care or management duties based on personal views could disrupt hospital services and further limit women's access to healthcare. The case highlights tensions between medical staff's personal beliefs and their duty to provide equitable care to all patients.
This document discusses options for unplanned pregnancy, including parenting, adoption, and abortion. It provides statistics on unplanned pregnancies in the US, noting that they are most common among poor, young, unmarried, and minority women. For unintended pregnancies, 40% ended in abortion in 2008, down from 47% in 2001. It then discusses each option in more detail, outlining what parenting, adoption, and abortion mean; the financial and emotional considerations of each; and some local resources for each option.

A 19-year-old single mother, G2P1 at 22 weeks and 6 days gestation, was referred for low hemoglobin levels. Her hemoglobin was 6.8 g/dL. She was diagnosed with iron deficiency anemia and teenage pregnancy, which is associated with adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. She received iron supplementation and blood transfusions to manage her anemia. Prevention of teenage pregnancy focuses on sexual education and easy access to contraception.
Globally the incidence of unwed mothers is rising.Unwed mothers remain a challenge in obstetric practice due to a complex interplay of obstetric,medical,social and psychological complications associated with them.so ,it is important to know who are unwed mothers,causes and nurses role.
This document outlines signs that are consistent with different forms of abuse, including physical abuse, sexual abuse, elder abuse, and signs of an abusive partner. Some key signs mentioned include injuries that do not match the reported mechanism, details of injuries that change between accounts, multiple injuries in various stages of healing, and inappropriate use of restraints. The document stresses the importance of ensuring safety for victims and avoiding confrontation with alleged abusers. Health care providers are obligated to file a report when abuse is witnessed or suspected.
This document discusses abortion and unintended pregnancy statistics in the United States and Minnesota. It provides statistics showing that over half of pregnancies in many states are unintended, and that unintended pregnancy rates are highest among poor and low-income women. The document outlines abortion statistics, including that in 2008 40% of unintended pregnancies ended in abortion while 60% resulted in birth. The document expresses a pro-life perspective on abortion and argues there should be more restrictions, allowing abortion only in cases of rape, incest, or risk to the mother's life. It provides alternatives to abortion like parenting and adoption.
This document discusses the complex ethical, legal and policy issues surrounding substance abuse during pregnancy. It begins by defining key terms like ethics, bioethics and law. It then provides background on the debate around how society should address this issue, noting different state approaches. Potential harms of prenatal substance exposure are described. Five possible policy solutions are outlined. Case studies of three hypothetical pregnant women - Alice, Darlene and Mrs. User - are used to illustrate the ethical and legal considerations for the women and their healthcare providers. Legal parameters restricting intervention are discussed. In summary, lawmakers have limited ability to intervene due to constitutional rights, so healthcare providers are also restricted in their response despite ethical concerns about harm to the unborn.
This document discusses consanguineous marriages, which are defined as unions between individuals related as second cousins or closer. There are various reasons why some communities prefer consanguineous marriages, such as strengthening family ties and making financial negotiations easier. Factors like higher education rates, age at marriage, and economic status can decrease consanguineous marriage rates. While effects are mixed, studies have shown associations between parental consanguinity and increased risks of infant mortality, congenital heart defects, and some genetic disorders. Genetic counseling can help families at risk of inherited disorders understand risks and family planning options.
This document discusses leukemia, a type of cancer that affects thousands of children each year in the United States. It primarily affects children between the ages of 3-15 and can drastically alter their lives. The disease involves an overproduction of abnormal, non-functioning blood cells which collect in the bone marrow and bloodstream. There are two forms, acute and chronic, with acute involving a more rapid overproduction of abnormal cells. Significant efforts have been made to research and cure leukemia through organizations like St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, founded by Danny Thomas in 1962 to support research for diseases that affect children. The hospital receives over $1 million in daily funding to support its facilities and treatment of over 5,000 patients at a time
This document discusses genetic counseling and the prevention of genetic diseases. It describes genetic counseling as a process that helps people understand and adapt to the risks of genetic contributions to disease. The document outlines several methods for preventing genetic diseases, including genetic counseling, carrier detection in mothers, neonatal screening, pre-implantation genetic diagnosis, and family education. It provides details on the roles of genetic counselors and geneticists in helping diagnose genetic conditions and counsel families.
The Hope Clinic for Women provides reproductive health services including birth control, pregnancy testing, emergency contraception, medical and surgical abortions, and counseling. It aims to serve and protect women's physical and emotional health. Unintended pregnancy is a significant issue, affecting nearly half of all pregnancies in the US. Factors that increase risk include being unmarried, low-income, or a person of color. Access to contraception and comprehensive sex education can help reduce unintended pregnancy rates.

(1) Child maltreatment was linked to poorer quality of life outcomes for breast cancer survivors including greater psychological distress, fatigue, and poorer physical, emotional, and functional well-being.
(2) Survivors who experienced child abuse or neglect reported receiving less social support as adults. Less social support partially explained the relationship between child maltreatment and quality of life.
(3) Improving social networks for survivors who experienced childhood trauma may help improve their quality of life outcomes after cancer treatment.
Eating Disorders: Confronting an Epidemic | Veritas CollaborativeVeritas_Collaborative
While attention to eating disorders has increased in recent years, the illness remains one of the most common, dangerous and least understood in the United States. The numbers are truly staggering: An estimated 25 million Americans, many of them adolescents, suffer from eating disorders. Ninety percent of them are women between the ages of 12 and 25, though eating disorders do not discriminate by gender, age or ethnic background. More than one-half of teenage girls and nearly one-third of teenage boys use such unhealthy weight control behaviors as skipping meals, fasting, vomiting, and taking laxatives.

Genetic counseling is a process that involves assessing individual or family risk for a genetic disorder, explaining options, and providing support. A genetic counselor reviews family history, medical records, determines disease risk, explains hereditary concepts, arranges for genetic testing, and provides guidance and referrals. They assist with informed decision making regarding pregnancy, screening, and management options. Areas of practice include cancer, pediatric care, prenatal testing, and screening for inherited metabolic disorders. New technologies allow for expanded multi-gene panel testing to efficiently screen for multiple conditions.

The document discusses alcohol and drug prevention efforts related to pregnant women. It notes that the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists states there is no safe amount of alcohol during pregnancy. Each day in the US, 20-100 babies are born with conditions related to prenatal alcohol or drug exposure. Prevention strategies discussed include education at the individual, family, community levels as well as screening and treatment. Barriers to addressing prenatal substance use and potential areas for improvement are also outlined.
The document discusses the debates around eugenics and designing babies through genetic engineering. It explores using embryo selection techniques to avoid diseases, determine sex, and alter visible traits, as well as the potential social and personal consequences. While designing babies could help prevent genetic diseases, it may also have unforeseen health risks for future generations and negatively impact society by promoting certain traits over others. The document concludes the risks of designing babies are greater than the possible benefits, and altering a child's genes could physically or emotionally harm them.
1. Cervical cancer disproportionately affects uninsured women in the US, with over 12,000 new cases and 4,000 deaths annually. Uninsured women often cannot afford regular screenings to detect pre-cancerous cells.
2. This document proposes several recommendations to improve cervical cancer outcomes for uninsured women, including increasing education programs in schools, expanding access to low-cost clinics with interpreters, and promoting nutrition and lifestyle seminars.
3. While these changes could help boost screening rates and catch cancers earlier, their implementation may face challenges like inadequate funding, cultural barriers to women's health discussions, and political opposition. Overall, the goals are to enhance prevention, diagnosis and treatment options for at-risk populations

Abortion can have serious physical and psychological complications. It is linked to increased risks of cancer, uterine damage, cervical lacerations, ectopic pregnancy, and complications in future pregnancies like preterm birth. Multiple abortions further increase these risks. Abortion is also associated with negative health behaviors and poorer overall health and well-being afterwards. It is a traumatic experience for many women that can be perceived as a violation, especially if the pregnancy was wanted or the abortion was forced.

What is Egg Donation: Procedure, and Donor CriteriaIVF Treatment
A woman can help another woman in having a baby by donating her eggs (or oocytes). It is a part of assisted reproduction and is a fantastic family-building option for couples in which the female suffers from severe gamete production problems. Couples who are carriers of hereditary diseases but do not want to pass their disease on to their offspring can also donate their eggs. The Indian Council of Medical Research says that egg donation should be a private process and that the donor should undergo a thorough examination before her eggs are used.
Ms. Chin Won, age 26, presented for her initial prenatal care visit and was found to have elevated blood pressure, excessive swelling, and a small fetus on sonogram. Early prenatal care could have helped decrease risks of maternal and perinatal mortality by identifying and correcting any problems before they affected the fetus. The nurse should ensure Chin Won's care is family-centered by coaching her and family for care rounds. Cultural assessment would be beneficial in planning care throughout pregnancy and postpartum by considering Chin Won's cultural traditions. The plan of care would vary depending on if Chin Won was single, working, or a teen to address social and personal adjustments needed to cope with her situation.
This document discusses a study on how ethics and morality play a role in decisions about using assisted reproductive technology (ART) when dealing with infertility. A survey of 100 people with varying religions, genders, and education levels asked about their knowledge of ART types and risks, and whether moral values would affect their choices. Most had some ART knowledge but 39% did not know risks. While 81% felt ART is ethical in some infertility cases, responses showed religion, gender, and education did not significantly impact ART decisions. The document then analyzes the results and discusses religious views on different ART methods and their health risks to better inform views on the ethical issues around using these technologies.
Egg Donation IVF or Donor Egg IVF program is the need of the day for those women who are wanting to get pregnant but unable to, due to premature menopause or advanced age or with multiple IVF failures.

The Women's Outpatient Center at Wheaton Franciscan-St. Joseph hospital in Milwaukee provides prenatal care to high-risk pregnant women to improve birth outcomes. Milwaukee has a high infant mortality rate, especially among African Americans. The center addresses barriers to care like lack of insurance, transportation, and education through programs like smoking cessation support and car seat safety classes. These efforts have helped reduce preterm birth rates and improved health for mothers and babies.
The document argues that abortion should be illegal for several reasons. It provides statistics on abortion in the US and notes that adoption is a viable alternative. The document claims that abortion can cause psychological and physical harm to women. It also argues that the fetus has legal rights and that abortion is against a doctor's oath to do no harm. The document concludes that abortion amounts to murder and should be banned.
1. The document discusses an approach to evaluating and treating female infertility. It defines infertility, discusses its prevalence and causes, and outlines evaluations including medical history, physical exam, and diagnostic testing.
2. Evaluation of both partners is recommended to identify potential causes of infertility such as ovulatory disorders, diminished ovarian reserve, tubal factors, and uterine abnormalities.
3. Prepregnancy counseling and optimizing chronic conditions are also discussed to maximize outcomes for patients seeking pregnancy. A comprehensive female evaluation incorporates history, exam, and testing to determine diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
In Vitro Fertilization is referred to as one of the precious gifts of science and technology to human civilization. To different couples who have suffered from different complications regarding pregnancy or failed to conceive after several attempts, this treatment is the blessing in their life.
This document discusses the socio-economic problems of infertility. It defines infertility as the inability of a sexually active, non-contracepting couple to achieve pregnancy in one year. Reasons for infertility include hormonal imbalances, reproductive organ issues, and medication side effects. Infertile couples experience social withdrawal over time as failed pregnancy attempts cause increased sadness and unwillingness to share problems. Treatment costs are also a major economic problem, ranging from tens of thousands to over $100,000 per cycle depending on the procedures. Developing countries tend to view infertility more negatively from a social perspective compared to Western nations.

The importance of women's healthcare and access to healthcareaalbaine1
The document discusses women's healthcare and the importance of access to such care. It begins by introducing the speaker, Aimee Albaine, and their passion for justice, equality, and kindness. It then discusses the women in our lives that rely on healthcare access, including mothers, sisters, and friends. The main topic is the lack of access to healthcare and reproductive resources for women, and how this impacts autonomy and health outcomes. Barriers to care like cost and limited availability of services are also covered. The document argues that action is needed because barriers lead to issues like higher rates of pregnancy complications and untreated conditions. It highlights the Chicago Women's Health Care Center as working to provide affordable care. It closes by suggesting ways to
This document discusses the connections between women's access to reproductive healthcare, including abortion, and their economic security and opportunity. It summarizes findings from the Turnaway Study that show women denied abortions were more likely to be in poverty two years later compared to those receiving abortions. The document argues that policies aimed at reducing poverty cannot ignore access to reproductive healthcare like abortion and contraception. Ensuring this healthcare access and providing economic supports for families are needed to truly advance women's economic opportunities and security.

This document discusses ethical, legal, and religious issues surrounding elective oocyte (egg) freezing in Asia. It provides an overview of the reasons for and arguments surrounding egg freezing, both medical and non-medical. Key points include that while egg freezing is now supported for medical reasons, there is still debate around non-medical egg freezing. Success rates decline significantly after age 35, but the average age women freeze eggs is 38. Legal and religious restrictions exist in some Asian countries. The conservative nature of Asian societies brings additional ethical questions around egg freezing.
Teenage pregnancy is defined as a girl aged 13-19 becoming pregnant. In Malaysia, most first sexual encounters occur between ages 15-19, putting girls at risk of unwanted pregnancy, STDs, and long-term health issues. While the teenage birth and pregnancy rates in Malaysia have decreased in recent years, they remain a public health issue, especially among unmarried, low-income, and rural adolescents. Unwanted pregnancies often lead to abandoned babies and unsafe or illegal abortions, which can result in medical complications. Experts recommend increasing access to sexual education and family planning services to prevent unintended pregnancies and support services for teenage mothers and their children.

This particular slides consist of- what is hypotension,what are it's causes and it's effect on body, risk factors, symptoms,complications, diagnosis and role of physiotherapy in it.
This slide is very helpful for physiotherapy students and also for other medical and healthcare students.
Here is the summary of hypotension:
Hypotension, or low blood pressure, is when the pressure of blood circulating in the body is lower than normal or expected. It's only a problem if it negatively impacts the body and causes symptoms. Normal blood pressure is usually between 90/60 mmHg and 120/80 mmHg, but pressures below 90/60 are generally considered hypotensive.

Golden Eggs
1. Golden Eggs
Young girls lining up in front of fertility clinics for some easy money should be advised
against it and should be made fully aware of the consequences.
few days back, Ms abc, a young
girl, looking as if fresh out of school,
came to my clinic and told me very
brazenly that she wants to donate her
eggs to an infertile couple. She also
conceded that she wants to do it for
money, which she needs to pay off as
her coaching class fee. She came to
know about egg donation from some
online ads and her friends. At the same
time she was very sure that so many
of them are already earning these
“quick bucks” from fertility clinics across
the city. It took me almost one hour to
counsel her that she is not the right
person for this job and they there are so
many other ways to earn money. I was
taken aback by her confidence and
sheer ignorance and it prompted me to
bring up this sensitive topic in front of
our young readers.
As infertility climbs, so does assisted
reproduction. Most of us know families
whose children were created with help
from fertility specialists or who owe their
existence to egg donors. The emotional
payoff of helping an infertile couple
have a child is also immense.
WHO NEEDS EGG DONATION
As per Indian Council of Medical
Research guidelines (ICMR), the type
of patients who need egg or oocyte
donation are
• Gonadal dysgenesis.
• Premature ovarian failure.
• Ovarian failure due to ovarian
surgery, radiation, or chemical
castration.
• Women who have resistant ovary
syndrome, or who are poor responders
to ovulation induction.
• Women who are carriers of
recessive autosomal disorders.
• Women who have attained
menopause.
WHO CAN DONATE EGGS
Donors should be healthy (as
determined by medical and
psychological examination, screening
for STDs, and absence of HIV
antibodies) women in the age group of
21-35 years.
Advances in medical technology
frequently come with ethical problems,
as well as scientific concerns and
issues. Egg donation, for women, is no
different. Ethicists and some women’s
health advocates worry that lucrative
payments are enticing young women
with credit card debts and heavy tuition
fees to sell eggs without seriously
evaluating the risks.
Side effects that Egg Donors may
or may not experience from the
medications include: headaches, mood
swings, bloating, nausea, and/or
temporary stinging where the injection
was administered. Egg Donors can
expect to feel particularly bloated during
the immediate period before
and after the retrieval, since
the hormone medications they
take will cause their ovaries to
swell and produce many eggs.
If the Egg Donor over-stimulates
she may run the risk
of Ovarian Hyperstimulation
Syndrome, which is rare
condition that typically occurs
in less than 3% of Egg Donors.
Severe cases of this syndrome
may result in damage to the
Egg Donor's ovaries. In less
severe cases, egg donors may
experience severe bloating
and strong cramping.
SYMPTOMS OF OHSS
• Abdominal discomfort and swelling
• Breathlessness
• Thirst, nausea and vomiting
• Constipation
EGGSPLOITATION
A documentary “Eggsploitation,”
made by Jennifer Lahl, a leading
advocate from USA for women in
terms of highlighting the problems
they face with egg donations, is
making its way across college
campuses, reaching the women who
feel economic pressure to sell their
eggs but may not realise the medical
dangers to them inherent in the
procedure.
A new study published in the
Fertility and Sterility found that almost
one in five women who donated their
eggs reported lasting psychological
effects as a result of egg donation --
some positive and some negative.
Some women felt a sense of pride in
helping an infertile couple, while others
developed concerns about the people
who were raising their genetic offspring.
Still, two-thirds of women who
donated eggs reported satisfaction with
the process, the study found. Women
also need to know that little data is
available to assess whether donating
eggs when young has any effect on
fertility later in life.
And nothing I mention here intends
to minimise the pain of infertility. There
are very few things in this
world which are as noble as
helping somebody conceive
and egg donors definitely play
a major part in this process.
But the fact remains that
young women —girls of my
own daughter’s peer group —
are being exploited as egg
donors. Egg Donor ideally
should be a healthy woman in
age group of 25- 35 years,
who has her own healthy
children, and she should be
made fully aware about the
whole procedure. Financial
compensations should not be
overglorified and a maximum of six
donations by any individual should be
allowed.
DONOR COERCION
Egg providers are enticed through
ads in online classifieds, social
media, and college newspapers,
offering anywhere from `20,000 to
50.000 per extraction. Ads invoke
kind of language which is appealing
to the altruism of potential providers,
calling for their pity on infertile
couples desperate to have a child
and suggesting that it is their duty to
help such people have children.
These ads are markedly coercive
and manipulative for young college-aged
women as they directly appeal
to their financial need and so-called
“maternal instincts.” Ads generally do
not make any mention of the
potential health risks involved or
reveal the lack of studies conducted.
