What is STD
1Apr-22

What Does STD Mean?

Her Smart Choice Women’s Health Center Educational Series Presents ‘What Does STD Mean?’

What Does STD Mean? – It’s a sexually transmitted disease.
If you have sex, oral, anal, or vaginal intercourse and or genital touching, you can get an STD, also called a sexually transmitted infection (STI).
You’re straight or gay, married or single, and vulnerable to STIs symptoms.
Thinking or hoping your partner doesn’t have an STI is no protection; you need to know.

 

What are the causes of STDs?
The causes of STDs are viral or bacterial infections. STDs that are caused due to bacterial infections are treated using antibiotics.
There is no cure for STDs caused by viral infections, but you can take measures to treat std symptoms.

What factors increase your risk of contracting an STD?
The below-mentioned factors can increase your risk of contracting an STD:
⚹ Having sex with greater than one partner
⚹ Having a sexual partner who themselves has sex with greater than one partner either currently or in the past
⚹ Having sex with a person who has an STD or STI
⚹ Having a personal history of STDs/STIs
⚹ Using intravenous drugs or if your partner uses intravenous drugs

What are the most commonly occurring STDs?
Some of the commonly occurring STDs are:
⚹ Chlamydia
⚹ Genital herpes
⚹ Gonorrhea
⚹ HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) infection
⚹ Syphilis
⚹ HPV (human papillomavirus) infection
⚹ Hepatitis B
⚹ Trichomoniasis

How can you prevent STDs?
The following are the top five methods to prevent STDs:

Abstinence
Abstaining from having all types of sexual contact, i.e., vaginal, oral, or anal, is the most efficient and reliable method to avoid contracting an STD. However, most individuals don’t find abstinence a practical way of dealing with the situation.

Vaccination
Getting a vaccine is a safe and effective method recommended to prevent HPV and hepatitis B. The HPV vaccine for both females and males may protect against certain common forms of HPV. It is recommended that you get all three shots (doses) before engaging in sexual activity. However, an HPV vaccine is recommended for all teen girls and females after the age of 26 and all teen boys and males after the age of 21 who were not given the three shots or doses of HPV vaccine before (at a younger age). You must also get a hepatitis B vaccine if you have not received the vaccine before (at a younger age).

Reduce the number of your sex partners
Reducing the number of sex partners can also decrease contracting an STD. It is also essential to know about the sexual history of your partner. The more significant number of partners you have, the greater your risk of getting an STD. The same is also true for your sexual partners, i.e., if they have more partners, it still increases your risk. You and your sexual partner should get tested for STDs. Moreover, both of you should share the results of your tests with each other.

Mutual monogamy
The meaning of mutual monogamy is that you have agreed to have sex with only one individual who has also decided to have sex with you. Having a long-term relationship that is mutually monogamous is among the most effective and reliable methods to prevent STDs.

Use condoms
Using male condoms made of latex correctly and consistently is incredibly effective in reducing the transmission of STDs. You must use a latex condom each time you are involved in vaginal, oral, or anal sex. You can also use a female condom while having vaginal intercourse. You should use dental dams or condoms while having oral sex and gloves during manual penetration.

In case of using a lubricant, be sure to use a water-based lubricant. It is essential to use condoms during the entire sexual act. Though condoms aren’t 100% effective in preventing STDs, they are still highly effective.

Abortion via telehealth
25Mar-22

How is Abortion via Telehealth Done?

In most circumstances, doctors can perform medication abortions through phone for women who are unwilling or unable to visit clinics. Abortion via telehealth consists of three consultations with knowledgeable and qualified health professionals who will analyze your condition, request the required tests, prescribe the relevant medications, advise you through the procedure, and follow you up according to best practice. If it requires testing, an abortion practitioner does a video evaluation, analyzes the results of those tests, and mails the abortion pills to the patient.

 

Abortion via telehealth is a safe and convenient way to end a pregnancy before nine weeks. Using the Abortion Pill to end a pregnancy at home is a safe and confidential option. You only need to come at least once to one of our abortion clinics to take the blood and ultrasound tests close to your home and our doctors will take care of everything else online.

 

What can You expect following an abortion via telehealth?

 

A typical period lasts between 9 and 15 days; however, some women have bled for as long as 70 days. Call the clinic if bleeding hasn’t started within 24 hours or if it’s getting worse.

 

As soon as a week goes by, you’ll get another blood test to ensure you aren’t pregnant. There will be a dramatic decline in pregnancy hormone levels, but it will still be positive. After we receive the results, we’ll get in touch with you to ensure everything is good.

 

Pregnancy can be ended medically with two medications (mifepristone and misoprostol), similar to a miscarriage at any stage up to nine weeks. Millions of women around the world have taken these medications safely and effectively.

The patients would also receive instructions about how many hours before the procedure they should avoid eating food. Generally, if tubal ligation is to be performed in the morning, the patient is advised to avoid eating or drinking anything after midnight

 

What happens after Tubal Ligation?

 

After the procedure, women can resume their normal diet after being discharged from the hospital. It is advisable to avoid lifting heavy weights for a few weeks. Also, they continue to have their periods normally. In rare cases, they may develop a few complications due to the surgery such as bleeding from the incision.

 

What are the risks of Tubal Ligation?

 

Tubal ligation is generally safe. In rare cases, women may experience a few complications such as:

  • Side effects of anesthesia

IUDs
13Oct-20

IUDs Types

As a woman, it is always wise to discuss your family planning options with your husband or partner. 

Family planning discussion will give you an idea about where you both stand on having kids. 

Moreover, if in this discussion you decide not to have kids for a few years, you can explore your birth control options. 

One of the most popular birth control options that women choose is Intra-Uterine devices (IUDs). This is the most effective birth control option that will last for about 12 years. 

But there is a major myth associated with IUDs. Some women think if they get IUDs, they will be choosing IUD for abortion. 

But the truth is far from that. IUDs do not prevent pregnancy by causing abortion.  

Instead, they prevent the pregnancy by either killing the sperms that enter the uterus or prevent the egg release from the ovary. This reduces the chances of fertilization to minuscule levels.

So, no fertilization, no pregnancy!

Now that we have got this myth busted, let us tell you about the two categories of IUDs you can choose from.

  • Non-Hormonal IUDs: In this category, a plastic T-shaped structure is wrapped with copper around it, hence copper IUDs.

Sperms hate copper because it changes the way they can swim thus preventing its meet with the egg. No fertilization, no pregnancy! 

  • Hormonal IUDs: In this category, a plastic T-shaped structure releases the hormone progestin in your body. 

Progestin is very much like natural progesterone released in your body. Hormonal IUDs prevent pregnancy in two ways.

These IUDs make the mucus of your cervix thicker making the entry of sperms difficult. Or else, they prevent the release of the egg from the ovary. 

Again, no fertilization, no pregnancy!

To know more about these categories of IUDs and which one is the best for you, contact us at Her Smart Choice.

We at Her Smart Choice are one of the leading affordable abortion clinics where we truly respect a woman’s choice for her body and life.

Types of Birth Control and Their Efficacy in Preventing Pregnancy

With the advancements in medical science, the number of methods available for birth control is on the rise. Some studies suggest that birth control can be used effectively, while others only believe that it can prevent pregnancy and not affect present pregnancies.

Before we clear the air around birth control and its use for abortion, let us first discuss some common forms of birth control and their efficiency in preventing pregnancy.

  1. Continuous abstinence: 100% effective in preventing pregnancy and STD/STIs.
  2. Surgical Sterilization: Permanent surgical methods can effectively prevent either a woman’s eggs from reaching the uterus (in tubal litigation) or a man’s sperm from entering a woman (in vasectomy) during intercourse. The failure rate is a mere 1%.
  3. Male condoms: Prevent sperm from reaching the egg. The estimated rate of failure is 11% to 16%.
  4. Female condoms: Prevents the sperm from reaching the egg. Failure in the case of female condoms is around 20%.
  5. Diaphragm: A shallow latex cup that can be fitted by using a visit to the medical care provider. It has a failure rate of 15%.
  6. Cervical cup: A thimble-shaped cup, with a failure rate that can vary from 14% to 29%.
  7. Fertility awareness method: Maintaining abstinence or using other methods depending on the hormone cycle to prevent pregnancy. The method is hard to perfect and thus has a 25% failure rate.

What kind of birth control method you use are a matter of personal choice and your health conditions.

At Her Smart Choice, we can help you select the most appropriate method of birth control depending on your choices and situation.

Birth control methods like the emergency “morning after” pill, hormonal vaginal contraceptive ring, patch, oral contraceptive, Depo-Provera, and intra-uterine devices can also be options worth considering.

Now, it is important that you understand that all forms of birth control cannot act as an option for abortion.

A pregnancy termination pill called abortion pill is the safest and sure-shot method of terminating an existing pregnancy.

Before you make use of any method of birth control, contraception, or abortion, it is important to get advice from experts.

Using unsuitable methods can be a risky proposition, and have negative effects on your overall health.

At Her Smart Choice, your sexual and reproductive health and wellness if our primary concerns.

What to Expect When You Take Abortion Tablets

The abortion pill has been FDA-approved for the last 20 years and has a 98% efficacy rate. And yet, there is so much confusion and misconceptions about its use.

Abortion through tablets is a very popular method and a lot of people use this method.

But, several myths surround its use.

To make sure such myths don’t stop you from getting the right medical care at the right time, here are some myth busters:

What is the abortion pill?

While it is called an ‘abortion pill’, the method of pregnancy termination using tablets, uses 2 pills. The first pill is to prevent the growth of the pregnancy called mifepristone. And the second pill misoprostol is to evict the pregnancy out of your uterus. 

What happens after taking the pill?

For most people, the first pill causes no symptoms. A very small number of people also face little vaginal bleeding after they take the pill. However, this is not common.

Taking the second pill (usually within 72 hours of taking the first pill) can cause a lot of symptoms.

While exactly defining the symptoms isn’t possible and the experience varies from person to person, the effect can be best described as somewhat similar to a miscarriage.

What follows includes cramping and bleeding within an hour of taking the pill

It also feels normal to feel chills, nausea, and have diarrhea. Flu-like symptoms and a mild fever may also accompany the bleeding and cramping.

Our medical staff at Her Smart Choice will also provide you pain-relief medication, and others help to make the process easier for you.

While the heaviest bleeding is likely to get over within 3 to 4 hours, it is common to experience slight bleeding till the next period, which is likely to come 4 or 6 weeks after the abortion.

If you feel that your symptoms (cramps, heavy bleeding, and flu-like feeling) don’t subside even after 24 hours and are getting worse, you should contact us.

We will examine your situation and offer the best solution to move forward.

At Her Smart Choice, we take great pride in being a quick abortion clinic. We understand the importance of timely action. We also understand that each passing minute is a burden for you. To ease your stress, tension, and issues, we take all possible steps to give you the fastest and the most effective solution to your problem.

A lot of people also believe that using an abort pregnancy tablet is likely to increase your chances of breast cancer. But that is just a myth. It is not backed by science and is just a misconception.

Also, at Her Smart Choice, we can assure you that you are making the right choice. The abortion options that we offer are 100% safe and have no side effects in the long run. It will not affect your reproductive health and cause no negative impact on any future pregnancies.

No matter what sexual or reproductive health issue you are dealing with, Her Smart Choice stands beside you in helping you find the right solution and making a smart choice.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

  3. Barrier methods like condoms, diaphragms, spermicides, cervical caps are also known to be effective methods of birth control.
  4. Sterilization methods like tubal litigation and vasectomy are also used by couples who do not wish to have children anytime in the future.  
  5. Some natural methods of birth control are also practiced that include abstinence, the fertility awareness method (FAM), withdrawal, and also the lactational amenorrhea method (LAM).

At Her Smart Choice, we can offer you guidance regarding all the aforementioned methods.
