A young woman describes her sex life as "active" and involving "many" partners. She wants a contraceptive method that is reliable and does not interfere with sex. She requests an intrauterine device (IUD). The nurse's most appropriate response is O "The risk of pelvic inflammatory disease will be higher for you." O "Pregnancy rates are high with the IUDs." \textbf{"The IUD does not interfere with sex."} O "The IUD will protect you from sexually transmitted diseases."

A study is done to determine the relationship between use of oral contraceptives and cervical cancer. Study subjects include 50,000 women who are using oral contraceptives and 50,000 women who have had a tubal ligation. After 2 years of follow-up, the rate of in situ cervical cancer is 18 per 10,000 in the oral contraceptive group and 3 per 10,000 (p < 0.05) in the tubal ligation group. Which of the following is the estimated relative risk of cervical cancer among women who have had a tubal ligation compared with women who use oral contraceptives? a) 3/50,000=0.00006 b) 3/18=0.17 c) 18/3=6 d) 18-3/10=17.7 e) 18-3=15 f) 18/3=21 g) Indeterminable from the data given

For this activity, you will research and explain four methods of contraception including two methods of sterilization. They are: 1. Oral contraceptives (the Pill) 2. Condoms 3. Tubal ligation 4. Vasectomy For each method consider (but you are not limited to) the following points: a. Explain the method of use (or surgery in the case of tubal ligation/vasectomy) b. Effectiveness (reliability) c. Availability (access) d. Risk factors 5. In what way(s) do condoms "out-perform" all other birth control methods?
