9. Menstruation Cycle

10. Women’s Reproductive System • Menstruation is a woman's monthly bleeding. When a woman menstruates, her body sheds the lining of the uterus which had thickened to prepare for pregnancy. (Day 1-7) • Ovulation is the release of the matured egg from the ovary. (Approximately day 11-18) • This is the body preparing itself for pregnancy.

11. An egg stays in a woman’s body for 24 hours. Sperm can stay in a woman’s body for up to 5 days. -The life span of sperm after ejaculation depends on the environmental conditions. Sperm ejaculated into a woman's vagina can live in a woman's reproductive tract for up to five days or perhaps even longer. Fertilization is possible as long as the sperm remain alive. Sperm ejaculated outside the body may survive only minutes to a few hours. - There are up to 500 million sperm per ejaculation. Male Reproductive System

12. Pregnancy When the fertilized egg implants on the uterine wall a woman is considered pregnant. This fertilized egg is now called a zygote and contains 46 chromosomes — half from the egg and half from the sperm. The zygote divides again and again as it grows in the female's uterus, maturing over the course of the pregnancy into an embryo, a fetus, and finally a newborn baby.

13. Birth Control- how it works Most birth control options contain hormones (estrogen and progesterone) which prevent ovulation A woman cannot get pregnant if she doesn't ovulate because there is no egg to be fertilized. HOWEVER If the hormonal contraceptives are taken irregularly, are defected or altered ovulation may occur.

15. Common STD’s Chlamydia- bacteria Herpes- viral Gonorrhea- bacteria Hepatitis B- viral Syphilis- bacteria Human Papillomavirus (HPV) – viral HIV & AIDS- viral

16. Transmission Chlamydia • By having unprotected vaginal, oral or anal sex with someone who is infected • from a mother to her baby during vaginal childbirth; • by transferring the infection on fingers from the genitals to the eyes, although it is rare for this to happen. Herpes HSV-1 is acquired orally, causing cold sores. HSV-2 is acquired during sexual contact and affects the genital area. • vaginal sex (HSV-2) • anal sex (HSV-2) • oral sex (HSV-1 or HSV-2) • kissing (HSV-1 only)

17. Gonorrhea • Gonorrhea is spread by vaginal and anal intercourse and oral sex. • Gonorrhea can also be passed from a woman to her fetus during birth. Hepatitis B • Hepatitis B is very contagious. It is passed through an exchange of semen, vaginal fluids and blood by: • having sexual intercourse without a condom • having unprotected oral sex • sharing needles and other "works" to inject drugs • sharing personal hygiene utensils such as toothbrushes and razors • accidental pricks with contaminated needles in the course of health care • HBV can also be passed from mother to infant during birth.

18. Syphilis • Syphilis is spread by contact with syphilis sores. Direct contact can occur during • vaginal and anal intercourse • oral sex • kissing (much less commonly) • Syphilis is especially contagious in the early stage of the disease, when sores are present.

19. Human Papillomavirus • HPV stands for human papillomavirus. There are more than 100 types of HPV. Some types produce warts — plantar warts on the feet and common hand warts. • About 40 types of HPV can infect the genital area. • HPV is spread by skin-to-skin contact — usually during vaginal, anal, or oral sex.

20. HIV/AIDS HIV is transmitted in blood, semen, vaginal fluids, and breast milk. The most common ways HIV is spread are by: • having vaginal or anal intercourse without a condom with someone who has HIV/AIDS • sharing needles or syringes with someone who has HIV/AIDS • being deeply punctured with a needle or surgical instrument contaminated with HIV • getting HIV-infected blood, semen, or vaginal secretions into open wounds or sores • Babies born to women with HIV/AIDS can get HIV from their mothers during birth or from breastfeeding.

21. Curable STDs are actually the most common. The most common STD is Chlamydia and it is a curable STD. This sounds like it is not such a big issue as it has a cure. However, the playing field evens out in favor of the STD, because most of the time the symptoms are not visible or felt by women. Thus it remains in the system because the person has no clue they are infected. There is no curable herpes or curable HPV. However people can help fight HPV by getting the Gardasil injection. The injection reduces the chances of contracting or developing HPV. Incurable STDs include HIV/AIDS. It is also the number one killer of entire populations in Africa. HIV/AIDS can be passed on to children if the parent is infected, but there are recent methods of treatment that will reduce the chances of this happening by up to 80%.
