This study evaluated salivary pH levels and the presence of red complex bacteria in healthy individuals, those with gingivitis, and those with chronic periodontitis. 60 subjects were divided into the three groups based on a clinical examination. Salivary pH was measured using a digital pH meter and red complex bacteria were assessed using the BANA test on subgingival plaque samples. Results found significantly lower salivary pH levels in subjects that tested positive for red complex bacteria by the BANA test. The study concluded that there is a positive correlation between BANA test results and pH, with more periodontal destruction associated with lower pH and positive BANA results.

While the experience of a miscarriage can be emotionally and physically demanding, there are many misconceptions surrounding the topic.

A woman facing an unexpected pregnancy has several options to consider, including continuing the pregnancy and parenting, adoption, or abortion. Support from loved ones can help in making such an important decision.

Chapter 19 teachback
Here are a few key points to consider in response to the discussion question and quote:
- There is no single "best" option, as each situation is unique and complex with many factors to weigh for both the woman and potential child. The best choice depends on individual circumstances.
- Adoption allows a child to be raised by parents who want to parent, while also allowing a birth mother who is not ready/able to parent to make a loving plan for her child's future. However, open adoption helps provide connection for both parties.
- Factors like a woman's age, health, financial means, support system and the stage of pregnancy all influence the relative risks and feasibility of the various options.

Ch15preg&birth
Here are a few potential reasons why the US has problems with maternity care:
- High costs of care lead to less access and more reliance on high-tech interventions even when not medically necessary. Spending more time with providers could help address this.
- Hospital-centric model of care doesn't always support natural birth processes. More time with midwives and alternative settings could help.
- Lack of paid family leave makes it hard for women to get adequate prenatal care and recover postpartum. More time with providers could fill some gaps.
- Focus on medical risks over emotional/social support needs. Additional prenatal visits could address whole health needs better.

Infertility JT Edit
Infertility is a common problem that affects millions of couples. It can be caused by factors in the male or female partner and sometimes both. While the main symptom is not being able to get pregnant, infertility can have wide-ranging emotional, psychological, physical, financial, social, and spiritual impacts on individuals and their relationships. Effective support and treatment requires addressing both the medical factors impacting fertility as well as the psychosocial needs of couples.
PMS and Sexual Dysfunction
This document discusses diagnosing and treating premenstrual syndrome (PMS). It begins by noting that PMS is a common complaint. It then covers diagnosing PMS using charts to track symptoms. Potential causes are discussed but are unknown. Treatment options presented include lifestyle changes, vitamins/supplements, and pharmacotherapies like SSRIs. Finally, it stresses the importance of counseling patients and defining treatment success individually.
How to Have a Baby
This chapter discusses when couples should start worrying about infertility. It notes that many newly married couples are expected to have babies right away and feel pressure from family. However, it notes that for a normal fertile couple, the chances of conceiving in one month are actually quite low. Most couples will conceive within a year if having regular unprotected sex, so there is no need to worry until after trying for a year without success. The chapter aims to reduce anxiety for couples trying in their first few months by explaining the typical conception timelines.
