Nearly half of all American women experience an unexpected pregnancy at some point due to inconsistent or incorrect birth control use, with home pregnancy tests and blood tests able to detect pregnancy and emergency contraception options exist within 5 days of intercourse; if pregnancy is confirmed, women must decide between abortion, adoption, foster care or parenting amidst misconceptions and with support in their decision making.
Surrogacy is an arrangement, where a woman agrees to become pregnant on behalf of another couple. It is often supported by a legal agreement. Surrogacy is not easy to understand for some people because of their personal or social beliefs. But for the partners, who want to become parents through surrogacy, it is essential to know what surrogacy is and how it can help them?
A woman must eligible to be a surrogate mother if she fulfills the below-mentioned parameters. Always check these parameters before finalizing a surrogate mother.
Though the recovery community is vast, we are all loosely connected by the journey and the common desire for a better life.
But all of our stories are unique and everyone comes to this place via a different path. If you ask a group of people in recovery what made them stop drinking and seek sobriety, the most common answer will be some sort of stressful event.
In recent research, our team found that 51% of pregnancies in the United States are unplanned. Every woman has a different situation, and everyone’s reasons for considering adoption are her own. The most important thing for you to remember, though, is that there are people out there who truly care about your unique situation; there are compassionate individuals who care about you and your life ahead.
Teenage pregnancy is one of the biggest problem in the world and more so in Africa, people need to come out and talk about this problem in the world and together we can end this.

Miscarriage is a term used to describe the loss of a pregnancy before the 20th week. It is a common occurrence, with estimates suggesting that up to 15% of all recognized pregnancies end in miscarriage. While the experience of a miscarriage can be emotionally and physically demanding, there are many misconceptions surrounding the topic.
Miscarriage - medical information(causes ,test& diagnosis, management , preve...martinshaji
Miscarriage is the spontaneous loss of a #pregnancy before the 20th week. About 10 to 20 percent of known pregnancies end in miscarriage. But the actual number is probably much higher because many miscarriages occur so early in pregnancy that a woman doesn't even know she's pregnant.
Miscarriage is a somewhat loaded term — possibly suggesting that something was amiss in the carrying of the pregnancy. This is rarely true. Most miscarriages occur because the #fetus isn't developing normally. However, because these abnormalities are rarely understood, it's often difficult to determine what causes them.
Miscarriage is a relatively common #experience — but that doesn't make it any easier. Take a step toward #emotional healing by understanding what can cause a miscarriage, what increases the #risk and what #medical care might be needed.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
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

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent
2. Unexpected Pregnancy
Almost half of all US women become pregnant
without planning to at some point in their lives
Most unexpected pregnancies occur when a couple is
not using birth control, or using it inconsistently or
incorrectly.
Some birth control methods do
fail, however, regardless of how or when you take
them.
3. Pregnancy Tests
There are two kinds of tests you can take to see if you
are pregnant or not…
Home pregnancy tests – They test for human chorionic
gonadotropin (hCG) which is a pregnancy hormone found in
urine
Very accurate and can be taken around the time of your missed
period
If a test is negative and it is less than one week past the time you
should’ve had your period, you should take a test again in several
days
Can purchase them over the counter at most drug or grocery stores
for $5-$15
4. Pregnancy Tests cont.
The second type of pregnancy test can be performed
at a doctors office or health clinic
A blood test can identify if there is hCG in your blood
It can tell if you are pregnant about a week before you would
expect your period.
5. Signs of Pregnancy
Early signs of pregnancy vary from woman to woman, as
well as from pregnancy to pregnancy…
Some common signs are:
Missed, lighter, or shorter period
Breast tenderness or enlargement
Nipple sensitivity
Frequent urination
Feeling tired
Nausea/vomiting
Feeling bloated and cramps
Increased or decreased appetite
Feeling emotional
6. Emergency Contraception
Type of contraception (Plan B or others like it) that
can be used up to five days after unprotected
intercourse or birth control failure.
Using EC dramatically decreases chances of
becoming pregnant
7. The Facts
More than 3 million unintended pregnancies occur
every year in the US
¾ of teen pregnancies in the US are unintended
½ of unintended pregnancies occur among the 11%
of women not using birth control
Majority of unintended pregnancies among women
who do use birth control result from inconsistent or
incorrect use
8. Good Information
You can use the planned parenthood website to find
a family planning clinic near you to confirm
pregnancy and find out more about your options
National Abortion Federation provides unbiased
information for all options to help women make
choices that are right for them
Avoid places like “crisis pregnancy centers”. They
draw women in by offering free pregnancy tests and
are often run by people against abortion and give out
biased information.
9. Prevent Another Scare
Find a birth control method that is right for you
New methods of birth control are being introduced all the
time, as well as old methods being modified…
Something that may not have worked or may have not been the
right option in the past could be the one for you now…
Keep emergency contraception on hand for backup
10. Many Decisions
After becoming pregnant you must decide what to
do…
Abortion versus carrying to full term
Raising a baby or choosing open or closed adoptions, or foster
care
It can be an emotional process (especially due to
hormonal changes)
Make sure you have support from family and friends to help
you weigh out your options
However, decisions should be made in a timely
manner because you only have so much time for
certain options.
11. Don’t Realize You’re Pregnant?
It’s not unusual for a woman to be 2 months
pregnant before she even realizes it
Signs of pregnancy can be confused with things like
digestive problems, stress, or the flu
Some women just don’t want to accept the signs
because they don’t want to make the necessary
decisions; but the longer you wait the less options
you have…
It is important to seek medical care as soon as
possible to ensure the safety of you and your unborn
child
12. Myths…
A child will not automatically improve your relationship with
your partner
Abortion is not more painful than labor
Abortion is not more expensive than having a child
Using drugs in the beginning of the pregnancy does hurt a
fetus
Adoption does not necessarily cut you off completely from
your child
Men can nurture and love a child the way a woman can
There is financial help for all options
There are no perfect mothers
Good mother skills are learned through hard work, trial and
error, education, and observing experienced mothers
13. Discussing Options
Abortion
Safe and legal in the US
Best time to do so is within the first three months
Carrying to term
Important to find a doctor that you are comfortable with
Single parenting is becoming more and more common, so
be prepared for anything
Foster Care: temporary situation usually with a family
member for a certain period of time
Adoptions can be open or closed and could limit contact
with your child
14. Quote that stood out!
Is it possible to become pregnant without having
intercourse?
YES IT IS!
“Pregnancy is possible if sperm is on a hand that is then put into
your vagina; if sperm lands in your vulva, right near the entrance
of your vagina; or if clothing or material that is completely
saturated with semen is in direct contact with your vagina.
However because sperm ejaculated outside of the body survive
only minutes to a few hours, getting pregnant without intercourse
is unlikely”
15. Question for Discussion
Becoming pregnant unintentionally leads to making
several important decisions…
Do you think that those decisions should be solely in the hands
of the pregnant woman, or do you think that outside forces
(such as the government) should be able to step in and say
whether or not certain decisions are allowed? (considering
abortion, adoption, foster care, etc.)
