Class Reveiw:
Block 1:
Quiz on reproductive technology
Most of the class was a type of lab in wich we checked out many different contraceptives.
We ID them found how each works and there relative effectivness. (some crazy stuff)
Block 2:
We got time to work on test tickets
we watched THE birth movie in all its glory.
Thoughts on Material:
The most effective contraceptives seemed to be the hormonal ones like the pill or the shot. There also seemed to be a lot of variables involved as to if you used them properly. For this reason I think the ones that people can't mess up on like a shot or ring are the most reliable. Since the idea has come up in class before i thot id also check out if I could find any examples or results from men on birth control.
Above and Beyond:
The stats comparing all of the technologies were the same as what we thought. The most common by far was the pill for usage. Technologies like the uterine T implant, implant, and shot were the most effective for the reasons I mentioned above. They didnt leave room for human error. Every type boasted good stats when in perfect usage, the problem seemed to always be the people using them. I got this info at www.gutmatcher.org/pubs/fb_contr_use.html .
The second question's search took me to some odd places if you will and I didnt want to keep searching. The most I got was that it would have similar effects as if a female took steroids, just reversed.

well done. An attempt is all I ask - I recognize that the old i'net tends to be a bit of a minefield when grabbing key words of a search on this topic. Makes for interesting discussion, anyway :)
