Controversial issue: Levonorgestrel

Hello everybody, today my post is about a controversial theme: the use of emergency contraception.
Fist I want to say something related with activity, I thing the idea that a learned person give us a talk in english about a topic directly related with our career is great.
Now Doctor Valenzuela´s talk was mainly of levonorgestrel and their effects in the ovulatory cycle. It is a complicated topic, because all contraception´s drugs always involves opinions related with the abortion, so there are view points of Churches, Scientists, etc.
According Dr. Valenzuuela,s talk Levonorgestrel acts as a contraceptive method through impede the conception by prohibit union between oocyte and sperm, preventing ovulation happen or impede implantation happen.
In my view point life begins when implantation happen, because the most eggs lost in this stage so it is an important event that define the pregnancy´s viability. So if this pill only has effect before that eggs are viable, it is not abortive.
The Levonorgestrel can use even 72 hours after an unprotected sex to achieve the desired effects.
I as a future midwife must have knowledge about conception and contraception, because I think that the percentage of women that had unprotected sex is high, so is their option request to this method and I must give all the options.

I hope that you enjoy my post, and I think contraception is a theme that must be investigated before recommending to our users.

See you in class, bye

SICKO...imposing documentary film!

Hello everybody!! In this oportunity my post is about a documentary film called SICKO.
First I want to say that the activity related with movie was good, overcoat the idea to listen all time people speak in english. Furthermore the health topic mentioned is so relevance for the future as midwife or as health professional.
But I don´t like that movie didn´t have subtitles in english and at first, I feel a little confused because I don´t know movie´s logic.
I saw the French Health System part, in this country it is based on the principle of solidarity, guarantying financial protection against life´s contingencies for everyone.
The health is free for everybody, it is funded by government (in 65%) and the employers (in 35%). Mainly the funds depends of taxes that are high; then the French Life is very expensive for example food and houses are expensive.
The Chilean Health System is mixed, depends of public and private funds. But the most important difference is that quality is better in the private area, and quality is bad in the public area. If you want associate with private system only need money and steady job, but if you want associate with public system you are classified according to you needs. Now if you want to have free health must be indigent or receive a minimun salary and ONLY in public health centres.
To improve this situation should raise taxes.

I hope that you enjoy my post!
