discuss the mode of action of the different steroidal contraceptives.
Step by step
Solved in 4 steps
- Discuss important premedication assessments to be used with all types of contraceptives.Hormonal contraceptives can be cyclic or non-cyclic. Non-cyclic hormonal contraceptives provide a constant level of hormones everyday for months or years. Examples of non-cyclic hormonal contraceptives include the hormonal IUD (Mirena, Skyla or Lilletta brandnames), the hormonal implant (Norplant or Implanon), and the hormonal injection (Depo-Provera). Cyclic contraceptives provide hormones for about 3 weeks, then one week of no hormones. Examples of these include various types of birth control pills containing 3 weeks of hormonal pills then one week of placebo (sugar pills); and the vaginal ring (NuvaRing, which is kept in for 3 weeks then removed for one week.) Many females using hormonal contraceptives in general tend to have lighter and shorter menstrual periods after a few months, but those using non-cyclic methods often do not have any menstruation at all. Why might this be? Write a paragraph describing a potential mechanism.Lactational Amenorrhea is a method of contraception Justify. What is the maximum effectiveness of this method in terms of period/duration?
- Give the rationale behind the hormonal ingredients used in the formulation of the female contraceptive pill. What are the side-effects of the use of such pills, and how does modern pharmacology address these issues?What are the main effects of gonadotropic hormones? Select all that apply. Stimulation of the formation of the ova Stimulation of the secretion of hormones from sex Stimulation of the development of secondary female sexual characteristics Stimulation sustains pregnancy Stimulation of the hormone progesteroneIdentify three major factors opposing the calming action of progesterone on the uterus.
