Dr. Linda Lim - Varona, an internal medicine specialist, has a column in the Health and HomeMagazine entitled “Dear Doctor”. She answers and gives advice to questions on health related problemssent by readers. If you were Dr. Varona, how would you answer the following questions? What advices orinformations would you give the letter-senders?Activity 3 Dear Doctor Q: I’m 28 years old and have been married for three years. However, until now I still don’t havea baby. My husband and I have not used any contraceptive. My husband, a seaman, has confessed that hehas been infected with STD during one of his journeys. Can this be a reason why we cannot have a child? Q: I’m 30 years old and still single. I am afraid to marry because I am diabetic and also suffer fromthyroid disease. Do you think I can still have a child when I get married? Q. My wife is a career-oriented, loving and beautiful woman. Really I cannot ask for more. Wehave been married for five years and still childless. She has been diagnosed of having a rare kind ofallergy, sort of immunological factor. Her body produces antibodies that kill sperm before it can penetratean egg cell. What can we do to make our marriage complete? What is the problem common to the three letter-senders? What causes their problems? Yes, their problem is related to infertility. Do you know that problems of infertility can beprevented and treated as well? In what ways? Read and understand very well the next lesson.Lesson 2 Infertility – Prevention and Cure The numerous treatments for infertility depend on their causes. Actually, determining the causeand treatment of infertility are both demanding tasks. Fortunately, recent developments in therapy havehelped increase the number of once infertile couples achieve pregnancy. Some causes of infertility can be prevented if reproductive health care is practiced. There aresome causes though, which can not be corrected anymore. However, through advanced medicine and technology various means of insemination or embryotransfer may be possible so that the woman can still become pregnant. Below is a diagram showing the two categories of infertility therapy.

Activity 1 TherapygramAnalyze the diagram below. IINFERTILITY THERAPY THERAPY To RESTORE ASSISTED REPRODUCTIVE TECHNOLOGY Women (ART)• Eliminate faulty • Treatment for injection • Medical advances allow couples timing • Administer gonadotropin to have biologic child.• Treatment of releasing hormone - Zygote Intrafallopian Infection • Surgery microsurgical Transferr (ZIFT)• Use of human technique - Gamete Intrafallopian pituitary gonadotropin • Treatment of Transfer (GIFT)• Correction by surgery superovulation therapy - Other ART Techniques - Electro ejaculation• Psychological Men - Aspiration technique Therapy Penile Injection - Intracytoplasmic sperm Vacuum Construction Device injection Answer the following questions. 1. What are the two categories of infertility therapy? 2. Differentiate the two categories. 3. Enumerate the therapy to restore fertility procedures for men. 4. Enumerate the therapy to restore fertility procedures for women. 5. List down the Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) proceduresASSISTED REPRODUCTIVE TECHNOLOGY (ART) ART is a modern medical technology which helps the woman of an infertile couple becomespregnant. The ART health care team includes physicians, psychologists, embryologists, laboratorytechnicians, nurses and allied health professionals who work together to help infertile couples.IN-VITRO FERTILIZATION (IVF) IVF is recommended as first line therapy and the most commonly used technique of ART.

The picture below shows how IVF procedure is done from A-E. A. The physician uses a needle to remove eggs from ovary. B. The eggs and sperm from a donor are combined in Petri dish C. If fertilization occurs, the fertilized eggs are retrieved and transferred by a canula. D. The eggs are placed in an incubator. E. The fertilized eggs are transferred to the uterus. Are you amazed at what modern science can do? Research shows that there is no higher risk of genetic abnormalities in the child conceived withART. But the risks involve the medication and procedure used to remove the eggs. These risks includehemorrhage, infection, damage to adjacent organs, over stimulation of ovaries which causes ovarianenlargement and abdominal discomfort. In addition, there is an increased chance of multiple preg-nancy.Activity 2 What’s the Issue? If you were in a debate, which side will you choose - YES or NO - on the issue: Scienceshould continue on researching and promoting ART. Why? Write your explanation in your notebook.Lesson 3 Attitude Towards Infertility Being infertile does not mean that a man is any less masculine or that a woman is any less feminine.Infertility does not make anyone incomplete or defective. It has nothing to do with attractiveness orsexual prowess. Moreover, it should not affect a couple’s relationship negatively. Attitudes toward conception vary greatly. Some people believe that having no child is already outof their control and they just have to accept such reality. This may be their religious or ethical position.On the other hand, some couples lose no hope of having their biologic child. They strongly believe toachieve that end, with no tests to prolong, no complicated therapy to undergo, and no expense, procedure,or hardship to experience.

Activity 1 “Face the Case”In not less than fifty (50) words, express your decision on the matter.“If , during my marrying years, I can not have a child. I will ........”Consider the following: 1. Do you think you are making the right move? 2. Does your action conform with your beliefs? 3. Do you really feel happy with your decision?Activity 2 Ten Commandments on Fertility Below is a list of health practices in relation to fertility and infertility. Which of these practices doyou like to follow?Write the adverbs of your choice for the following “DO’s” Very often Oftentimes Sometimes Seldom Never1. You shall eat healthy foods2. You shall not smoke3. You shall sleep well4. You shall not take alcoholic beverages5. You shall seek treatment for infection early and properly6. You shall consult proper authority on fertility problem7. You shall practice safe sex when the right time comes8. You shall avoid having sex with more than one partner9. You shall avoid stress10. You shall be cautious with your reproductive health at all times. Do you think it is hard to follow the ten commandments? Can you make a commitment andpromise to take care of your reproductive health?Let’s go to the next lesson.

Lesson 4 Early Marriage: Factors to be Considered Babes, 17, and only in the first year of her Nursing Course, is six months pregnant. She and herboyfriend, also 17, plan to marry after she gives birth. Her boyfriend does not have a job, besides he isalso still a college student. Do you think their marriage will be a happy and a successful one, ten years after? Teenage marriages usually happen in haste. This makes them unprepared to adapt to married life.They are not ready to assume the responsibilities of marriage. Their roles as husband and wife may notyet be very clear to them especially about rearing their own children. They may not have clear prioritiesin life. There are several factors to be considered in determining an individual’s readiness for marriage. These are: - age - parental resentment - health - length of acquaintance - finances - motivation - emotional independenceActivity 1 “Marriages Done in Haste Goes to Waste!” Read the dialogue between Ryan and Babes, newly wed, ages 18 and 17 respectively. Husband - (1) Sweetheart! I will be late. The BERKS will meet me at “The Mars”. You can go to sleep. Don’t bother to wait for me anymore. Wife - (2) Why do you still go to discohouse and come home the next morning? You are a married man now! (3) I’m already seven months pregnant and you allow me to sleep alone! Husband - (4) I’m just having fun with friends. Why do you complain? (5) Mommy is supporting our needs anyway. Wife - (6) When will you try to look for a job? (7) I can feel that your mom resents me. Husband - Don’t worry. She just doesn’t know you well yet. (8) We’ve met only a month before our marriage. Wife - (9) If only I didn’t try to get away from my parents!! (weep alone).Answer the following questions: 1. In statement number 1 and 4 of Ryan, what kind of attitude did he manifest? If he is emotionally matured will he act the same way? 2. In sentence number 2 of Babes, did she show tolerance? Do you think their being 17 years old has something to do with their attitudes?

3. What is the problem of Babes in statement 3? What is she concerned about at the moment? Is her body full and ready to adapt to the demands of giving birth and rearing a baby? 4. When Babes uttered sentence 6, what must be the problem of the couple? Can they assume financial responsibility of supporting themselves and an infant? 5. Is Ryan emotionally independent when he said statement 5? Is he prepared to give outmost loyalty to his spouse? 6. Babe’s statement 7 reveals her feeling. What factor explains such feeling? 7. What factor explains statement 8? Did the couple have enough time to really know each other? 8. What factor explains statement 9? Did Babes have a good reason why she got married? There are indicators that the more mature the couple is at marriage, the greater likelihood themarriage will be stable. They have better chance to survive the test of time in marriage. Do you support this statement? Why?Activity 2 “What If” If Ryan and Babes had a chance to recall their situation before getting into early marriage, howwould they plan their life as husband and wife to make their marriage succeed? 1. Make a list of the advantages and disadvantages of early marriage. 2. Compare marriage of young couples with that of more mature couples. Whose marriage do you think will be more likely to succeed? Why?Activity 3 “Open – Ended Statement” Complete the statements with your stand, opinion, or beliefs. 1. Before I’ll get married, I will consider...... 2. I believe early marriage can still be successful if.... 3. I will never enter into early marriage because ..... How well did you learn the lesson? If you have questions in mind and want to clarify matters, feel free to approach your teacher anddiscuss your questions with her.

Lesson 5 Marriage at Appropriate Time Marriage refers to the socially recognized and approved union of two individuals of opposite sexwith the expectations of performance and the aim of producing and rearing children. It is a relationship inwhich two people make legal their commitment or a pledge to love and care for each other. A couple is ready for marriage if they - are emotionally mature, - have more social experiences, - have stable income, - can disengage from family attachments, - can accommodate and adjust to new patterns of living, - have clear priorities in life. If you were to be asked, “When is the appropriate time for marriage?” how would you answer thequestion?Activity 1 Rank Order “When is the appropriate time for me to get married?” Rank the following statements according to your point of preference. Rank them 1-5 from highestto lowest. The appropriate time to get married is when I...... have finished studies. am 28 yrs. old have a steady job although not able to finish studies. met the man/woman I love. have clear priorities in life and sense of responsibility. Which of the statements did you rank first? 5th?Keep in mind that.... In selecting a marriage partner, compatibility should be given consideration. To be compatiblemeans to be able to get along well together. There are factors that increase the likelihood of a compatiblemarriage.

Activity 2 “Values Voting” Uncertain disagree Agree Copy the above “values voting” design in your notebook. Make a horizontal mark on any part ofthe line to indicate your stand on the following statements. A couple to be compatible must have... 1. similar values and beliefs 2. clearly defined goals 3. similar intelligence and educational experience 4. families that have similar philosophies 5. ability to communicate to each other 6. physical attraction to each other 7. healthful attitudes about marriage and sex 8. equal sense of commitment to the importance of marriage 9. similar view about having and rearing children 10. similar age. Describe a successful marriage. When do you say it is successful? In what ways? Do you believe these factors can help increase the likelihood of a succesful marriage? Why? Do you belive having a successful marriage can be achieved?Lesson 6 Uplifting the Quality of Life “Life is what we make it”, people say. Success in life depends on how you set your goals and howyou work hard to achieve them. You have to develop life skills which can be useful to you in attainingyour objectives. These are lifeskills in: - developing attitude toward family and home - planning career - developing short and long term goals - making decisions Have you ever imagined who you are, where you are, how you are doing several years from now?

Activity 1 Can This Be Me? Sketch a picture of yourself ten years from now.Write a brief description of yourself in a bubble.Activity 2 “ This is My Life”Copy the Lifeline chart. 1. Write your date of birth on the space provided for. 2. In each stage of your life, write your plans or goals and the expected outcome. 3. Do not forget to write your signature.Lifeline 20 yrs 30 yrs 40 yrs 50 yrs 60 yrs 70 yrs 10 yrs 1. What are your plans and goals for every stage of your life? 2. What are the expected outcomes of your plans? 3. Are you happy with your plans? To dream and to aspire is not bad most specially if it is aimed for a happy and productive life in thefuture. What is important is careful planning to reach your goal. For example, when you plan to get married and become responsible parents, you must have inmind the quality of family life you like to build. Hence it is important to consider with your future partneryour readiness for marriage, the size of the family that you would like to have, the right time when youwill be ready to provide adequately family needs.Let’s summarize! • There are a variety of factors which cause infertility among men and women. • The causes of infertility among men include problems with the testicles, hormone disorders and infections. • Mechanical problems like impotence and premature ejaculation can also cause infertility. • Causes of infertility among women include anovulation, abnormalities of fallopian tube, endometriosis, luteal-phase defects, uterine factors, cervical factor, immunologic factors and pelvic inflammatory diseases.

The blood provides the tissue cells with the oxygen and nutrientsthey need. If circulation of the blood is interrupted for more than a few minutes, sudden death may occur. The heart works constantly every minute of our life. Because of this there is a wide range of potentialproblems and disorders. The most common are coronary heart diseases and hypertension. Analyze the diagram carefully.After analyzing the diagram, study the discussion. Take note of the termsyou will encounter and understand their meaning.

Why does blood pressure rise?Can high blood pressure lead to complications? 4. How do you know if you are suffering from the following diseases of blood vessels: a. Angina pectoris b. Congestive heart failure c. Pulmonary edema d. Heart attackLesson 2 ASTHMA, DIABETES, CANCER In lesson one, you have learned the common examples of diseases of the heart. It is equally importantto understand asthma, diabetes and cancer because although they are not contagious, they may be life-threatening too. Early diagnosis and proper attitude are two essential factors in treating these diseases. Thesefactors can help save life. If you know the signs and symptoms of these diseases, you can help save life too!ASTHMA The cause of asthma is often unknown. It is usually an inherited condition. Asthma is the leading causeof a chronic illness. It is also a common cause of absenteeism among school children who suffer from thiscondition. Asthma can be aggravated by the following: - respiratory infections - exercise - cold air/excessive heat - stress - exposure to pollen, mold spores, animal dander or house-dust mites

Signs and Symptoms 1. wheezing 2. difficultyinbreathing 3. painless tightness in the chest 4. coughing Emergency Symptoms 1. extreme difficulty in breathing 2. bluish lips and nails 3. severe breathlessness 4. increased pulse rate 5. sweating 6. severe coughing Treatment 1. Re examine activity levels and lifestyle 2. Modify strenous activity 3. Be alert to symptoms 4. Try to avoid indoor and outdoor allergies and irritants. 5. Cooperate with your physician 6.

Signs and Symptoms - increased thirst - increased urination - weight loss - fatigue, nausea, vomiting - vaginitis, skin infections, blurred vision, frequent bladder infections Treatment - appropriate diet and weight control plan - a sensible approach to physical activity - use proper medication, approach physician for proper consulatation

CANCER Cancer is caused by the uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells. There are more than onehundred different types of cancer. People believed that cancer is an incurable disease but statistics showedthat it can be treated when it is diagnosed early.Seven Warning Signs1. Change in bowel or bladder habits2. Sore that does not heal3. Unusual bleeding or discharge4. Thickening or lump in a breast or elsewhere in the body5. Indigestion or swallowing difficulty6. Obvious change in a wart or mole7.

What could possibly happened to her? 2. What are the warning signs of other cases similar to her? 3. Can she still be treated? How? 4. Can her disease be prevented? How?Lesson 3 MEDICINAL PLANTS Are you aware that there are a lot of drugs, basically from plant extracts, that are used to curediseases? Careful studies and researches lead to the discovery of a lot of wonder drugs which arecommercially approved and used by consumers. The Philippines is rich in medicinal plants . These plants can be found in the backyard or homegarden! Medicinal plants can be good alternatives for costly drugs. However, it is important to be careful inthe preparation of these medicinal plants for safety and more effective results. Let’s identify some medicinal plants commonly found in our community and discover the healingpower of these herbal plants. ¾ Lagundi – for cough, asthma, fever and skin infections ¾ Oregano – for cough ¾ Sambong – for fever, asthma, edema, and to treat kidney stones ¾ Guava – for asthma, diabetes, diarrhea and for wounds ¾ Ampalaya – for hemorrhoid, diabetes and wounds ¾ Sabila orAloe Vera – to grow hair, treating burns, skin ulcer and wounds ¾ Garlic Cloves – for mild hypertension

How do we prepare these herbal plants? Most common procedure in preparing these herbal plants is through “decoction”. It is the process ofextracting the healing elements of plant parts through boiling. The extracted juice can be drunk hot or cold. Another procedure is by chopping the plants and applying it to the affected area commonly referred toas poultice.Activity 1 “MIX AND MATCH”Arrange the letters in column A to form the word and match with its use in column B.AB1.
