Oral contraceptives, also known as birth control pills, are designed to prevent pregnancy by stopping ovulation. They can be taken continuously for 84 days on and 7 days off to have 4 periods per year, and can also be used to regulate menstrual cycles and decrease painful periods or treat acne. Benefits include allowing women to space out pregnancies and prevent unwanted pregnancies that carry medical, social, and financial risks. Potential side effects include depression, anxiety, increased blood pressure, blood clots, and bleeding, so women should see a doctor if any side effects occur. It is important to take the pill at the same time each day to prevent pregnancy from missed doses.

Oral contraceptives
The document discusses oral contraceptives (OCs), including their risks, benefits, and new regimes. It notes that OCs have a low failure rate and incidence of intolerable side effects. While serious complications are rare, risk increases for smokers, those with certain medical conditions. New regimes aim to manage side effects and improve compliance by shortening or extending the hormone-free interval between active pills or adding estrogen during that time. Extending the active pill period helped reduce withdrawal symptoms for many patients in one study.
OCP (Oral Contraceptive Pills)
The document discusses different types of oral contraceptives including combination pills containing estrogen and progestin, progestin-only pills, and emergency contraceptive pills. Combination pills are available in monophasic, multiphasic, and extended-cycle formulations. Progestin-only pills contain only progestin and have no inactive pills. Emergency contraceptive pills can prevent pregnancy if taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex. Oral contraceptives work by preventing ovulation, thickening cervical mucus, or altering the uterine lining. They are highly effective but can have side effects like headaches or mood changes. Long term use carries small risks of blood clots, heart attack, or stroke.

Contraceptives
Combination oral contraceptives are the most common type and contain estrogen and progestin. They come in monophasic, biphasic, and triphasic formulations. Other options include transdermal patches, vaginal rings, progestin-only pills, injectables, and implants. Intrauterine devices provide long-term contraception for 3-5 years. Emergency contraception can be used after unprotected sex and works best if used within 72 hours. Estrogen and progestin work to prevent pregnancy by inhibiting ovulation and thickening cervical mucus. Common side effects include breast tenderness, headaches and mood changes.
Oral contraceptives
Oral contraceptives come in four main types: combined pills containing estrogen and progestin, phased pills with varying amounts of hormones, progestin-only pills, and emergency contraceptive pills. Combined pills are the most widely used and contain fixed doses of estrogen like ethinyl estradiol and progestins like norethindrone or levonorgestrel. They work by inhibiting the hormones FSH and LH to prevent ovulation. Progestin-only pills contain very low doses of progestin and may allow ovulation. Emergency contraceptive pills can prevent implantation of a fertilized egg. Oral contraceptives are generally very effective at preventing pregnancy when taken correctly but can have side effects like
Oral Contraceptive Pills (OCP)
Oral contraceptive pills contain estrogen and progesterone hormones that prevent pregnancy through three main mechanisms: blocking ovulation, thickening cervical mucus to prevent sperm entry, and changing the uterine lining. They are a popular, effective, and relatively safe contraceptive method with potential side effects like headaches, mood changes, and weight gain. Proper use and avoiding certain drug interactions are important for preventing contraceptive failure and unplanned pregnancy.
Oral hormonal contraceptive
This document discusses oral hormonal contraceptives, including combined oral contraceptive pills and progestogen-only pills. Combined pills contain estrogen and progestogen and work primarily by suppressing ovulation. They are highly effective at preventing pregnancy but must be taken correctly every day. Progestogen-only pills contain only progestogen and work mainly by thickening cervical mucus; they are less effective than combined pills. Both have benefits but also require strict use and have potential side effects. The document seeks to address common myths about contraceptive pills.

If the pills are missed in the first week of a pack (pills 1-7): emergency contraception should be considered if the patient had unprotected sex in the pill-free interval or the first week of the pill packet. She should finish the packet and have the usual pill-free interval.
If the pills are missed in the second week of a pack (pills 8-14): there is no need for emergency contraception as long as the pills in the preceding seven days have been taken correctly. The packet should be finished and the usual pill-free interval taken.
If the pills are missed in the third week of a pack (pills 15-21): the next pack of pills should be started without a break - ie the pill-free interval is omitted. If taking a packet with dummy/placebo pills, these should be discarded, and the new packet started. Emergency contraception is not required.
If more than seven pills are missed, the woman should start again as if starting for the first time. (Exclude pregnancy, and start a new pack on the first day of the next menstrual period.)

ORAL CONTRACEPTIVE PILLS
Oral contraceptive pills (OCPs), also known as birth control pills, contain a combination of estrogen and progestin hormones. Taken correctly, OCPs are over 99% effective at preventing pregnancy. There are different pill formulations including monophasic, biphasic, and triphasic pills. OCPs have significant health benefits but also some risks, such as a small increased risk of blood clots. Emergency contraceptive pills can also be used within 5 days of unprotected sex to prevent pregnancy.
Combined oral contraceptive pills
This document discusses the benefits of combined oral contraceptive pills, including menstrual benefits like regularizing menses and reducing menstrual blood loss and dysmenorrhea, as well as non-menstrual benefits like reducing risks of various cancers and conditions like fibrocystic breast disease. It also describes the administration of pills, including taking one pill a day for 21 days followed by a 7 day pill-free interval. Missed pills can generally be made up, but two missed pills require a backup contraceptive method. The document also discusses progesterone-only pills and extended cycle pills.

Hormonal contraception refers to birth control methods that act on the endocrine system. Almost all methods are composed of steroid hormones, although in India one selective estrogen receptor modulator is marketed as a contraceptive.Hormonal methods of birth control prevent eggs from being released from the ovaries, thicken cervical mucus to prevent sperm from entering the uterus, and thin the lining of the uterus to prevent implantation. Hormone pills come in packs. Most packs contain 3 weeks of hormone pills.

This document provides information on hormonal contraceptives. It discusses the world population growth and India's population statistics. It then focuses on oral contraceptives, describing the different types including combined, progestin-only, and extended/continuous use pills. The document outlines the mechanisms of action, administration, effectiveness, advantages, side effects, drug interactions, and follow-up for oral contraceptive use.
Oral contraceptives/ Hormonal contraception
Most oral contraceptives contain a combination of 2 types of hormones: an estrogen and a progestin. Both of these hormones are naturally found in women’s bodies. There are many different types of estrogens and progestins, and different types of pills contain different combinations, but they all work similarly. Some pills contain only progestin, sometimes called the “mini-pill.”
Menstrural Cycle
Menstruation occurs monthly in females and involves shedding the uterine lining. It typically lasts 3-5 days and is part of the menstrual cycle, which begins at puberty and ends at menopause. The cycle involves the menstrual, follicular, and luteal phases. During the follicular phase, hormones stimulate follicle and egg development. Ovulation occurs mid-cycle when an egg is released. If fertilization does not occur, the corpus luteum breaks down, causing menstruation. Various drugs can be used to induce ovulation in cases of infertility.

Emergency contraceptive pills can prevent pregnancy when taken up to 5 days after unprotected sex. They are safe and effective for all women. Emergency contraceptive pills have a failure rate of about 1-2% if used correctly. A woman can get pregnant immediately after taking emergency contraceptive pills, so it's important to begin using another contraceptive method right away for ongoing protection.

- Family planning allows individuals to space and limit pregnancies through contraceptive use and infertility treatment. It aims to improve health outcomes for mothers and children.
- Common contraceptive methods include hormonal methods like pills and implants, barrier methods like condoms, and long-acting reversible methods like IUDs. Lactational amenorrhea can also prevent pregnancy during exclusive breastfeeding.
- Widespread access to family planning is important for maternal and child health, but many women still lack contraceptive access or choice due to various barriers. Proper education and counseling are crucial to help individuals select the most effective methods that suit their needs and circumstances.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
