Refresher course on family planning

Dr. Jean Infield, a family planning expert from England, was invited to conduct a series of refresher lectures to the medical personnel of the Association. The 4-session refresher course was held in the mornings of February 26 to March 1 for 47 doctors, advisers and nurses. The topics were on the choice of contraceptive, postcoital contraception, overview of hormonal contraception, myths and fallacies of oral contraceptives, intrauterine contraception, contraception for the older women and barrier methods. Participants agreed that the lectures were informative and useful to their work in family planning.
