Progestin-only pill (or mini-pill) which does not contain estrogen are more likely to cause breakthrough bleeding --- spotting Estrogen The estrogen compound used in most oral contraceptives is estradiol and is always used with a progestin. May cause fluid retention-- With long term use. Blood Pressure should be checked periodically Effects on Reproduction. When used throughout a menstrual cycle with progesterone: Estrogen changes the cellular structure of the endometrium and prevents implantation of a fertilized egg. Progesterone Progesterone and blocks the actions of Lutenizing Hormone Lutenizing Hormone (LH) ----(stimulates corpus luteum), and FSH and prevents ovulation. No new egg follicles are developed No ovulation occurs. changes the lining of the uterus Makes it more difficult for the fertilized egg to implant. Keeps the cervical mucus thick and sticky Barrier against entry of sperm into the uterus. Inhibits sperm transport by reducing fallopian tube mobility. Combined Oral Contraceptives Types Monophasic: All 21 active pills contain a fix dosage (same amount) of Estrogen & Progestin (E/P) throughout the cycle. Biphasic: 21 active pills contain 2 different E/P combinations (e.g., 10/11) Triphasic: 21 active pills contain 3 different E/P combinations (e.g., 6/5/10) 5 OCPs and LUPUS For years, OCPs were not recommended for patients with LUPUS. There was a belief that OCPs may cause increase in disease activity or flare-ups in patients with LUPUS A major study funded by the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases shows that women with lupus are able to take oral contraceptives without an increased risk of flare-ups. Oral Contraceptives COCs should not be used if a woman: Is pregnant (known or suspected) Is breastfeeding (can take progestin only) Is jaundiced (symptomatic viral hepatitis or cirrhosis) Has ischemic heart disease or CVA Cardiovascular Disease Diabetes Mellitus - uncontrolled Thrombophlebitis Client Instructions If you forget to take 1 pill, take it as soon as you remember, even if it means taking 2 pills on 1 day.

Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) Initial treatment: Acetaminophen NSAIDS: ibuprofen, naproxen Other: Psychological evaluation Supplemental estrogen Tranquilizers and antidepressants Oxytocin Produced by hypothalamus and secreted by Posterior pituitary gland Stimulates milk ejection during lactation, uterine contraction during birth, and is released during sexual orgasm in both men and women. the mechanism of action is dependent on the presence of estrogen Oxytocin's role may be related to various behaviors - social recognition, bonding, anxiety, trust, and maternal behaviors. oxytocin (Pitocin) Labor induction Postpartum bleeding or hemorrhaging Increases uterine tone during post partum period Incomplete/Inevitable/Elective Abortion Not indicated for inducing first trimester abortion Discontinue if uterine hyperactivity or fetal distress occurs. Stimulates the ejection of milk - Induces milk letdown. Oxytocin 10 U/1ml/amp, in 500ml N/S. Uterine stimulant, by increasing intracellular concentrations of calcium in uterine myometrial tissue Antidiuresis appears to be initiated by the direct action of oxytocin on the kidney. The action of the drug stimulates renal tubular absorption of free water. Monitor closely in patients for hypotension Restricted fluid intake Adverse reactions Hypotension - maternal arrhythmias - myocardial infarction Seizures, headache, memory dysfunction and subarachnoid hemorrhage Hyponatremia: water intoxication - Ocular bleeding and blurred vision, pulmonary edema Uterine hypertonia or rupture Flushing, nausea and vomiting Oxytocin Water Intoxication Pounding maternal pulse Increased maternal blood pressure Moist respirations - Rales The rate of infusion should be decreased when depression of FHR occurs.

(a) a plastic cylinder, which covers the penis; (b) a pump, which draws air out of the cylinder; and (c) an elastic ring, which, when fitted over the base of the penis, traps the blood and sustains the erection after the cylinder is removed.
