Birth Control Methods01:22

Birth Control Methods

6.8K
Vasectomy is a surgical form of male sterilization that involves severing and sealing the vasa deferentia, preventing sperm from mixing with semen during ejaculation. Because a vasectomy does not impact the testes' ability to produce testosterone, hormone levels, libido, and sexual function generally remain unchanged. While vasectomy is highly effective in preventing pregnancy, with a success rate near 99.85%, rare cases of recanalization (spontaneous reconnection) can occur. Although...

Imprinting01:22

Imprinting

11.1K
Behavioral imprinting is observed in some newborn animals and occurs when they develop strong and specific attachments to another animal (usually a parent) following brief, early-life exposures. Offspring imprint onto parents within a brief period after birth or hatching; this time window is called the critical period. Once imprinting occurs, the bond established between the parents and their offspring is usually long-lasting.

Reproductive Cloning01:27

Reproductive Cloning

32.7K
Reproductive cloning is the process of producing a genetically identical copy—a clone—of an entire organism. While clones can be produced by splitting an early embryo—similar to what happens naturally with identical twins—cloning of adult animals is usually done by a process called somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT).
Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer
In SCNT, an egg cell is taken from an animal and its nucleus is removed, creating an enucleated egg. Then a somatic...

Social Exchange Theory02:06

Social Exchange Theory

40.8K
We have discussed why we form relationships, what attracts us to others, and different types of love. But what determines whether we are satisfied with and stay in a relationship? One theory that provides an explanation is social exchange theory. According to social exchange theory, we act as naïve economists in keeping a tally of the ratio of costs and benefits of forming and maintaining a relationship with others (Rusbult & Van Lange, 2003).

Electron Configuration of Multielectron Atoms03:26

Electron Configuration of Multielectron Atoms

65.0K
The alkali metal sodium (atomic number 11) has one more electron than the neon atom. This electron must go into the lowest-energy subshell available, the 3s orbital, giving a 1s22s22p63s1 configuration. The electrons occupying the outermost shell orbital(s) (highest value of n) are called valence electrons, and those occupying the inner shell orbitals are called core electrons. Since the core electron shells correspond to noble gas electron configurations, we can abbreviate electron...

Summary

Vaginal birth after myomectomy is safe and successful for most women. Trial of labor after myomectomy (TOLAM) resulted in high vaginal delivery rates with no uterine ruptures, suggesting it

Area of Science:

  • Reproductive Medicine
  • Gynecologic Surgery
  • Obstetrics

Background:

  • Myomectomy, surgical removal of uterine fibroids, is common.
  • Pregnancy following myomectomy requires careful consideration of delivery mode.
  • Prior surgical characteristics may influence obstetrician decisions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess obstetrical and perinatal outcomes of vaginal birth after myomectomy.
  • To explore the impact of surgical details on delivery mode selection.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective cohort study of women who underwent myomectomy (laparoscopic or laparotomic).
  • Analysis of subsequent pregnancies, deliveries (≥24 weeks), and operative characteristics.
  • Phone interviews for data collection on outcomes and surgical history.

Main Results:

  • 152 pregnancies occurred post-myomectomy; 110 resulted in delivery at ≥24 weeks.
  • Trial of labor after myomectomy (TOLAM) was attempted in 66.4% of cases, with 90.4% achieving vaginal delivery.
  • No uterine ruptures or perinatal deaths occurred; NICU admission was 14.5%.

Conclusions:

  • Trial of labor after myomectomy (TOLAM) is a feasible and safe option for achieving vaginal birth.
  • High success rates and absence of severe complications support TOLAM.
  • Entry into the uterine cavity during myomectomy appears to influence obstetricians' delivery mode choices.
