This document discusses a retrospective study conducted at Madinah Maternity and Children Hospital (MMCH) in Saudi Arabia in 2016 to determine the rates of different types of abortion. The study found that abortion accounted for 95% of early pregnancy bleeding cases at MMCH. The most common type of abortion was incomplete abortion, which was likely due to the advanced age and high parity of many of the patients. Over half of abortion patients were aged 38-45 years old and had 5 or more pregnancies. The second most common type was missed abortion. The study concludes that incomplete abortion is the most frequent type of abortion seen at MMCH, likely due to social norms contributing to older age and high parity among patients in the region.

This document discusses STIs and their prevalence and impact in pregnancy. It notes that common STIs in pregnancy include chlamydia, syphilis, trichomoniasis, genital warts, and gonorrhea. Left untreated, these infections can lead to adverse outcomes like preterm birth, low birth weight, stillbirth, and congenital infections. The document recommends screening practices for certain STIs during pregnancy, including chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis screening, with treatment when indicated to improve maternal and neonatal outcomes. However, routine screening for all STIs is not recommended.
Dr. Poly Begum discusses strategies to reduce maternal mortality in Bangladesh, which include expanding training of midwives. Bangladesh aims to train 3,000 midwives by 2015 to improve maternal and neonatal health outcomes. Doubling the percentage of births attended by skilled health workers is a key goal. Strengthening emergency obstetric care through upgrading facilities and ensuring round-the-clock midwifery services are also part of the strategy. Cooperation across all sectors is needed to further reduce Bangladesh's maternal mortality ratio.

This document discusses a case report of a woman who suffered intestinal injury from an illegal abortion. The key points are:
1. The 28-year-old woman underwent an unsafe, illegal abortion by an untrained nurse, which perforated her uterus and injured her intestine, leading to sepsis.
2. She required an emergency laparotomy where a 2cm rent was found in her posterior uterine wall and faecal matter was leaking from her bowel. Her intestine was repaired and a loop ileostomy was performed.
3. Unsafe abortions frequently occur in developing countries due to lack of education, social stigma around abortion, and restrictive abortion laws. This can lead to serious complications like infection, hemor
Safe abortion services, effectiveness of legislation amongSwornim Bajracharya
This document discusses safe abortion services and the effectiveness of legislation to control teenage pregnancy in Nepal. It provides background on abortion definitions and legalization in Nepal. Unsafe abortion remains a major issue, with many women unaware that abortion is legal. While comprehensive abortion care services are being expanded, more awareness efforts are needed. Teenage pregnancy is also rising, but legislation has helped increase access to safe abortion services for teenagers. Overall, making abortion services more available and promoting sexual health education can further reduce unsafe abortions and teenage pregnancies.
Obesity in pregnancy by dr alka mukherjee dr apurva mukherjee nagpur m.s. indiaalka mukherjee
Obesity among pregnant women is becoming one of the most important women's health issues. Obesity is associated with increased risk of almost all pregnancy complications: gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, gestational diabetes mellitus, delivery of large-for-GA infants, and higher incidence of congenital defects all occur more frequently than in women with a normal BMI. Evidence shows that a child of an obese mother may suffer from exposure to a suboptimal in utero environment and that early life adversities may extend into adulthood.
The evidence available on short- and long-term health impact for mother and child currently favors actions directed at controlling prepregnancy weight and preventing obesity in women of reproductive ages. More randomized controlled trials are needed to evaluate the effects of nutritional and behavioral interventions in pregnancy outcomes. Moreover, suggestions that maternal obesity may transfer obesity risk to child through non-Mendelian (e.g. epigenetic) mechanisms require more long-term investigation.
PATTERN OF DRUG PRESCRIBING DURING PREGNANCY IN NEPALESE WOMENPriyanka Shrestha
This study assessed the pattern of drug prescribing for 94 pregnant women in Nepal. The majority of women were aged 15-25 years. Most drugs prescribed were categorized by the FDA as category B, meaning they have been shown to have no evidence of risk in humans. The most commonly prescribed drugs were nutritional supplements like iron and folic acid, followed by antibiotics and antacids. Some category X drugs like oxytocin and dydrogesterone were prescribed, indicating potential teratogenic risk. Overall, the study provides insight into prescribing practices for pregnant women in Nepal.
The main purpose of this research was to investigate the women pregnancy healthy status and behaviors in Eastern-Azerbaijan province referred to the treatment health centers in 2012. The present study was a cross-section study. So 30
married women between 15-49 years old have been taken up randomly for family adjustment and mother health and pregnancy care. A questionnaire including the demographic features and other questions about the status and behavior of the
pregnancy health affairs were used to collect the results. The obtained data of these questionnaires were analyzed by SPSS software. The results that showed 63.8% had itching or the vaginal stimuli and 34.9% (52 ones) had bad-smelling secretions and
36.9% (55 ones) had intense pain around the abdominal area. The investigation of these infectious diseases through sexual path showed that about 0.5% (3 ones) are challenging with these mentioned disorders. The results of the barrenness showed that about 8.7% (52 ones) tried to get pregnant but they did not get pregnant.
The document describes a case study of a 25-year-old unmarried woman who presented with heavy menstrual bleeding and was diagnosed with septic incomplete abortion and severe anemia. She was treated surgically and received blood transfusions and antibiotics. The document then provides background information on unsafe abortion, its prevalence in Nepal, and the country's abortion law which legalized abortion in certain conditions. It discusses methods of surgical and medical abortion and challenges to accessing safe abortion services in Nepal.

Nepal has one of the highest maternal mortality rates in the world. Abortion was legalized in 2002 through amendments to the Muluki Ain, Nepal's legal code, in order to make safe abortion services available nationwide. Previously, the Muluki Ain prohibited abortion and punished women for having abortions. The amendments conditionally liberalized abortion by allowing it up to 12 weeks with woman's consent and up to 28 weeks if her life or health is at risk. The Right to Safe Motherhood and Reproductive Health Act of 2018 further expanded access by allowing abortion up to 28 weeks in cases of rape, incest, HIV/AIDS, or fetal defects.

This document discusses barriers to contraceptive use globally and in Sudan specifically. It begins with an introduction on family planning and contraceptive use trends globally. It then discusses the large unmet need for contraception worldwide, particularly in Africa and benefits of family planning. Barriers to use discussed globally include socioeconomic factors, limited access, side effects, and cultural/religious opposition. Barriers in Sudan specifically include shortage of facilities, staff turnover, socioeconomic factors, low awareness, and lack of dedicated funding. Figures show contraceptive use in Sudan is only 7.7% with 28.9% unmet need, among the lowest rates in Africa.

This study examined the prevalence and factors associated with low birth weight (LBW) deliveries at a tertiary hospital in Nigeria over 4 years. The key findings were:
- The prevalence of LBW deliveries was 8.3%. Most LBW babies were preterm (68.4%) or small for gestational age (53.6%).
- The predominant factors associated with LBW delivery were nulliparity, low parity (1-2), maternal age 25-35 years, hypertensive disorders during pregnancy, and short birth spacing (1-2 years).
- Effective family planning and antenatal services, particularly targeting low parity women aged 25-35 years with short inter-pregn
Maternal mortality is defined as the death of a woman during pregnancy or within 42 days of termination of pregnancy from pregnancy-related causes. The three main causes of maternal death globally are hemorrhage, sepsis, and hypertensive disorders. In India, maternal mortality rates are highest in rural areas where access to healthcare is limited. The three delay model explains that maternal deaths are often due to delays in seeking care, reaching care, and receiving adequate care. Reducing maternal mortality requires improving access to emergency obstetric care, family planning services, and addressing social determinants like gender inequality and poverty.
Female Infertility can be caused by physical obstructions like endometriosis or pelvic inflammatory disease blocking the fallopian tubes, hormonal issues interfering with ovulation, or problems with fertilization or early development. Around 12% of women experience infertility, which is generally treated through fertility drugs, surgery, artificial insemination or assisted reproductive technologies like in vitro fertilization. Coping strategies include considering other family planning options, seeking counseling or support groups, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle to potentially overcome infertility issues.
The document discusses maternal mortality and morbidity. It defines maternal mortality as the death of a woman during pregnancy or within 42 days of termination of pregnancy from any cause related to the pregnancy. The global maternal mortality ratio has declined but there remains a large gap between developing and developed countries. The five main causes of maternal death are hemorrhage, sepsis, unsafe abortion, hypertension, and obstructed labor. Maternal mortality can be prevented by increasing access to emergency obstetric care, safe abortion services, and improving health infrastructure in remote areas. Maternal morbidity refers to any illness or disability resulting from pregnancy and childbirth.

Trichomoniasis in the women is usually asymptotic however the disease might be manifested as vaginitis, cervicitis, urethritis, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), and adverse birth outcomes. Methods: A case-control hospital based study conducted at Kassala Hospitals, eastern Sudan during the period from 1st January 2015 to 30th June 2015 to investigate the prevalence rate of Trichomoniasis during pregnancy and its impact on neonatal outcome. Results: During the study period there were 199 infected women with T vaginalis among 2374 deliveries yielding a prevalence rate of 8.3%. The vast majority (140/199, 70.4%) was asymptomatic while the rest presented with vaginal discharge (33/199, 16.6%), itching (16/199, 8%) and dysuria (10/199, 5%). With regard to membranes status and neonatal outcome higher proportion of infected women presented with premature ruptured membranes (30, 15.1% Vs 6, 3%; P = 0.000) and gave preterm birth (31, 15.6% Vs 7, 3.5%; P= 0.000). Using logistic regression analysis the study showed significant association between Trichomoniasis, preterm birth (CI= 1.1 � 13.6, OR= 3.9, P= 0.030) and premature rupture of the amniotic sac before 4 centimeter dilatation (CI= 1.0 3.2, OR= 1.8, P= 0.025). Conclusion: Trichomoniasis is highly prevalent among parturient women in eastern Sudan, and there is significant association between Trichomoniasis, preterm birth and premature ruptured membranes.

Current point of view in preterm labor management in albania (2)Alexander Decker
This study examined the use of maintenance tocolysis therapy to prevent preterm labor in Albania. The study included 325 pregnant women between 28-32 weeks gestation hospitalized for preterm labor. Women received tocolysis therapy for over one month. Those between 28-30 weeks (n=200) had greater benefits, with pregnancy prolonged by 6-8 weeks on average. The authors conclude maintenance tocolysis therapy can considerably prolong pregnancy for women diagnosed with preterm labor between 28-32 weeks gestation, though larger studies are still needed.

The document discusses a study conducted in Albania on the use of maintenance tocolysis therapy to prevent preterm labor. The study included 325 pregnant women between 28-32 weeks gestation hospitalized for preterm labor. Women received tocolysis therapy for over one month. Those between 28-30 weeks gestation saw more prolonged pregnancies compared to the 30-32 weeks group. The study concluded that maintenance tocolysis therapy can considerably benefit women diagnosed with preterm labor and help prolong their singleton pregnancies when medical intervention is not urgently needed. However, more research is still required.

Around 12% of women experience infertility, which is generally treated through fertility drugs, surgery, artificial insemination or assisted reproductive technologies like in vitro fertilization. Coping strategies include considering other family planning options, seeking counseling or support groups, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle to potentially overcome infertility issues.
The document discusses maternal mortality and morbidity. It defines maternal mortality as the death of a woman during pregnancy or within 42 days of termination of pregnancy from any cause related to the pregnancy. The global maternal mortality ratio has declined but there remains a large gap between developing and developed countries. The five main causes of maternal death are hemorrhage, sepsis, unsafe abortion, hypertension, and obstructed labor. Maternal mortality can be prevented by increasing access to emergency obstetric care, safe abortion services, and improving health infrastructure in remote areas. Maternal morbidity refers to any illness or disability resulting from pregnancy and childbirth.

Trichomoniasis in the women is usually asymptotic however the disease might be manifested as vaginitis, cervicitis, urethritis, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), and adverse birth outcomes. Methods: A case-control hospital based study conducted at Kassala Hospitals, eastern Sudan during the period from 1st January 2015 to 30th June 2015 to investigate the prevalence rate of Trichomoniasis during pregnancy and its impact on neonatal outcome. Results: During the study period there were 199 infected women with T vaginalis among 2374 deliveries yielding a prevalence rate of 8.3%. The vast majority (140/199, 70.4%) was asymptomatic while the rest presented with vaginal discharge (33/199, 16.6%), itching (16/199, 8%) and dysuria (10/199, 5%). With regard to membranes status and neonatal outcome higher proportion of infected women presented with premature ruptured membranes (30, 15.1% Vs 6, 3%; P = 0.000) and gave preterm birth (31, 15.6% Vs 7, 3.5%; P= 0.000). Using logistic regression analysis the study showed significant association between Trichomoniasis, preterm birth (CI= 1.1 � 13.6, OR= 3.9, P= 0.030) and premature rupture of the amniotic sac before 4 centimeter dilatation (CI= 1.0 3.2, OR= 1.8, P= 0.025). Conclusion: Trichomoniasis is highly prevalent among parturient women in eastern Sudan, and there is significant association between Trichomoniasis, preterm birth and premature ruptured membranes.

Current point of view in preterm labor management in albania (2)Alexander Decker
This study examined the use of maintenance tocolysis therapy to prevent preterm labor in Albania. The study included 325 pregnant women between 28-32 weeks gestation hospitalized for preterm labor. Women received tocolysis therapy for over one month. Those between 28-30 weeks (n=200) had greater benefits, with pregnancy prolonged by 6-8 weeks on average. The authors conclude maintenance tocolysis therapy can considerably prolong pregnancy for women diagnosed with preterm labor between 28-32 weeks gestation, though larger studies are still needed.
Current Point of View in Preterm Labor Management in AlbaniaRustem Celami
The document discusses a study conducted in Albania on the use of maintenance tocolysis therapy to prevent preterm labor. The study included 325 pregnant women between 28-32 weeks gestation hospitalized for preterm labor. Women received tocolysis therapy for over one month. Those between 28-30 weeks gestation saw more prolonged pregnancies compared to the 30-32 weeks group. The study concluded that maintenance tocolysis therapy can considerably benefit women diagnosed with preterm labor and help prolong their singleton pregnancies when medical intervention is not urgently needed. However, more research is still required.

Ectopic pregnancy refers to the pregnancy occurring outside the uterine cavity, predominantly i.e. 90% of them in the fallopian tube. Ectopic pregnancy affects 11 in 1000 pregnancies and is a significant cause of morbidity and at times mortality in the first trimester of pregnancy. In a 20-year longitudinal study on ectopic pregnancy in a defined
population of women aged 15e39 years the rate of ectopic pregnancy per 1000 diagnosed conceptions increased
from 5.8 during 1960e4 to 11.1 during 1975e9. The mean annual incidence of ectopic pregnancy per 1000 women
increased from 0.6 to 1.2 during the same period. The numbers of ectopic pregnancies per 1000 diagnosed
conceptions increased with increasing age of the women and were 4.1 in the teenage group, 6.9 in women aged
20e29 years, and 12.9 in women aged 30e39.
This document discusses the presentation, diagnosis and management of non-HIV sexually transmitted infections (STIs) during pregnancy. It notes that STIs like chlamydia, gonorrhea and trichomoniasis are common in young women and can have serious consequences for the pregnant woman and fetus if untreated. While initial antenatal screening focuses on HIV, hepatitis and syphilis, other STIs may be missed without considering a woman's risk factors and testing appropriately. The document provides guidance on risk assessment, indications for testing specific STIs, and treatment and partner management during pregnancy to help optimize outcomes for both mother and baby.
Oral surgery during pregnancy
Dr. Ahmed M. Adawy
Professor Emeritus, Dep. Oral & Maxillofacial Surg.
Former Dean, Faculty of Dental Medicine
Al-Azhar University
Pregnancy, also known as gestation, is the time during which a fetus develops inside a woman's uterus. Pregnancy is typically divided into three trimesters. The common belief has been that, if an oral surgery procedure is recommended, but it’s not an emergency, the second trimester is the ideal time. Pregnancy however, is not a disease and pregnant woman should not be treated differently than the general population. In short, it could be concluded that:
• Dental care is safe and essential during pregnancy
• Pregnancy is not a reason to defer routine dental care or treatment
• Diagnostic measures, including needed dental x-rays, can be undertaken safely
• Emergency care should be provided at any time during pregnancy
Use of oral contraception benefits, risks and ethical dilemmaRustem Celami
Contraception as a method to prevent pregnancy has been used since ancient time by many cultures. In Albania, traditional withdrawal was the preferred choice for many years. Oral contraceptives were legalized in Albania in 1992 and have been distributed free at government health centers since 1993. Nevertheless, Albanian population have more confidence in traditional withdrawal than in modern methods of contraception, emphasizing how little couples know about family planning and the weakness of subsequent family planning education efforts. However, some ethical dilemmas and groups oppose the distribution of contraceptives. This piece of paper will be focused in use of oral contraceptives, benefits, risks and ethical point of view.
This study evaluated the clinical and perinatal outcomes of 100 teenage pregnancies at a tertiary referral center in South India. The study found that teenage pregnancies had higher rates of complications like anemia (43%), preeclampsia (21%), preterm labor (21%), and emergency c-sections (33%) compared to adult pregnancies. Neonatal outcomes were also worse, with 38% of babies being low birth weight (<2.5 kg) and 21% being preterm. The study concluded that teenage pregnancy poses significant health risks to both mother and baby due to the biological immaturity of teenage mothers.
1) Birth spacing of at least 24 months between live births and 6 months between other pregnancy outcomes reduces maternal and infant health risks.
2) Immediate postpartum or post-placental IUD insertion provides highly effective, long-acting contraception without interfering with breastfeeding.
3) Progestin-only contraceptive options like implants and Depo can be used shortly after birth while combined hormonal methods should generally be delayed until 6 weeks postpartum when breastfeeding.

A Dissertation To Be Submitted In Partial Fulfillment Of The Requirements For...Bryce Nelson
This document is a dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of requirements for a Master's degree in Obstetrics and Gynecology. It investigates factors associated with successful trial of labor after cesarean delivery (TOLAC) in low resource settings. The study found that previous vaginal delivery, previous successful VBAC, and advanced cervical dilation on admission were independent predictors of successful VBAC. Half of the women who underwent TOLAC had a successful VBAC. Providers and patients generally believed that vaginal delivery remains an option after cesarean. The study provides insight into improving VBAC rates in low resource settings.
Gynecology is the study of women's health issues involving the reproductive organs, breasts, and associated cancers. It has been practiced since ancient Greece and Rome but became a specialized field in the 19th century United States. Gynecology now encompasses medical, societal, and psychological aspects of treatment. Gynecologists undergo four years of residency training in areas like prenatal care, reproductive health, cancer screening and treatment, and genetic counseling to become board certified in obstetrics and gynecology.
Maternal & Infant Risks Regarding Extreme Age of PregnancyAI Publications
Background: Extremes of maternal age are of considerable clinical and public health concern as it plays an important role in infant and maternal health. This study aims to determine the effect of extreme maternal age at pregnancy on a mother and infant’s health. Methods: The study was a cross-sectional analytical observational study, conducted on a pediatric outpatient clinic at Teaching Hospital, with a purposive sample of 450 mothers. A structured questionnaire was designed, which included socio-demographic data, factors related to pregnancy care, and factors related to the infant. Results: The main maternal health problem during pregnancy was anemia and pregnancy induced hypertension with a statistically significant association between the mother’s age and maternal morbidity. The main causes of baby admission into hospital were diarrhea and acute respiratory diseases, with a statistical significant. Conclusion: There was an agonizing correlation between extreme maternal age and infant health. A serious collaborative effort must be done between social worker in health facilities and community, to rise up awareness about the suitable age of marriage and reproductive health.

Breastfeeding during pregnancy does not increase the risk of miscarriage or preterm birth according to a case-control study. The study compared 215 pregnant women who breastfed during pregnancy to 280 pregnant women who did not breastfeed. The frequency of miscarriage was significantly lower in those who breastfed, but there was no significant difference in rates of preterm birth or birth weight between the groups. The study concludes that breastfeeding during pregnancy does not pose additional risks for miscarriage, preterm birth, or neonatal birth weight.
- Preterm birth is defined as birth between 20-36 weeks of gestation. Preterm labor is diagnosed based on uterine contractions and cervical changes.
- Tests like fetal fibronectin and cervical length can help predict risk of preterm birth but have poor positive predictive value on their own.
- Antenatal corticosteroids between 24-34 weeks of gestation significantly reduce neonatal mortality and morbidity for preterm births within 7 days and should be considered routine.
- Magnesium sulfate before 32 weeks of gestation reduces the risk of cerebral palsy in surviving infants.
This document discusses antenatal care and diagnosis of pregnancy. It provides an overview of the objectives, importance and components of initial comprehensive evaluation during antenatal care visits. The initial evaluation involves diagnosing the pregnancy, obtaining a medical history, conducting a physical exam, assessing gestational age, and providing instructions to the patient. The goals are to monitor maternal and fetal health, identify high-risk pregnancies, detect medical issues, and educate the mother. A proper diagnosis is important to guide treatment and management of any existing conditions during the pregnancy.
This document summarizes a management session on evidence-based medicine in diagnosing and monitoring high-risk pregnancies. It discusses factors that can lead to high-risk pregnancies such as age, weight, medical conditions, and socioeconomic status. Selected conditions discussed in detail include anemia, chronic hypertension, and thrombophilia. Evidence-based methods are important for accurately identifying risk factors and monitoring pregnancies to help improve outcomes.

This editorial discusses the risks of Brazilian butt lift procedures:
1) They are the deadliest aesthetic procedures, with 1 in 3000 patients dying from a fat embolism caused by injecting fat into the buttocks.
2) Most of the 33 reported deaths have been attributed to unqualified doctors performing the procedures, though underreporting is likely.
3) Other risks include sepsis, gangrene, and in rare cases lymphoma from breast implants used in butt augmentations.
4) The risks of butt augmentations outweigh the benefits, as enhancing the brain is preferable to enhancing the buttocks.

This document summarizes research on the relationship between childhood abuse and obesity/food addiction. It finds that adverse childhood experiences like physical, emotional, or sexual abuse are associated with higher risks of obesity in adulthood, possibly due to induced stress, inflammation, and metabolic disturbances. Studies also find similarities between addictive-like eating behaviors and substance abuse disorders. The concept of "food addiction" is discussed and operationalized using the Yale Food Addiction Scale. Prevalence of food addiction varies in studies but is higher in obese individuals, particularly those with binge eating disorder. Childhood abuse is strongly linked to reports of food addiction in adulthood.

This document discusses the development of a vaccine for Candida infections. It first provides background on vaginal anatomy and how Candida normally lives commensally but can cause infection. Risk factors for recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis include excessive carbohydrates, hormonal therapy, douching, antibiotics, and immunosuppressants. Candida species produce various virulence factors like adhesion molecules and enzymes that contribute to pathogenesis. Current antifungal treatments can fail due to drug resistance. Researchers are working to develop a vaccine targeting Candida proteins like Sap that are involved in virulence and may help prevent recurrent infections. Phase I trials of vaccines containing Sap and Als proteins have shown promise.

Phyllodes Tumors: What is the Best Therapeutic Option?_ Crimson PublishersCrimsonpublishers-IGRWH
1) Phyllodes tumors of the breast are rare fibroepithelial tumors that resemble fibroadenomas. They are classified as benign, borderline, or malignant based on histological features.
2) Surgical resection is considered the best therapeutic option due to the high recurrence rate of 27% for malignant phyllodes tumors. For small (<5cm) benign tumors, tumor resection with 1-2cm margins is recommended, while mastectomy is recommended for malignant tumors or those >5cm.
3) The role of adjuvant therapies after surgery is still unclear due to limited studies with small sample sizes. Individualization of adjuvant treatment based on tumor characteristics may be considered.
