.... uterine cramps and increased menstrual flow when using an IUD. (Billings, pg.63) in fact, some devices increase the risk of pelvic infection(Funk & Wagnall’s, pg.98). Further, in Perry and Dawson’s book, Nightmare, they proclaim the dangers of IUDs. They focus, especially, on the Dalkon Shield IUD; an IUD described as “the safest and most satisfying form of contraception.” In their book, Perry and Dawson state that “more than 12,000 women have filed damage suits for complications ranging from debilitating pain and severe bleeding to perforated uteri, unplanned pregnancies, spontaneous miscarriages, and .....

.... high to an extreme low instantly, for no apparent reason. Usually, they procrastinate often and have trouble finishing projects, while conversely, they can hyperfocus at times and accomplish tasks more quickly and efficiently than a normal person could. Often they have short tempers and lack the impulse to stop themselves from blowing up over minor details (Hallowell 10). Although A. D. D. has just recently been discovered and there is still relatively little known about it, it has an interesting history. In 1902, George Frederic Still first thought that the dilemma of problem children was a biological defect inheri .....

.... the placenta. There the alcohol interferes with the ability to the fetus to receive sufficient oxygen and nourishment for a normal cell development in the brain and other body organs (FAS home page). Not all women who drink will have babies with FAS, however 40% of women who drink heavily during pregnancy will have a child with (Creative Consultants). Of the other 56% some will have babies with fetal alcohol effects and some will be fetal alcohol exposed. These children will have minor learning disabilities and behavioral problems. A small few will apparently normal. There are combinations of factors that determine whethe .....

.... would think twice about smoking. In the end all of this would help deplete the smoking population. Once a teen is addicted, at such a young age breaking the addiction is more difficult. Teenagers are adolescents and their minds are still developing. The task of breaking an addiction requires a mature, responsible and dedicated intellect. It is for this reason that smoking in teens should be treated like any other drug addiction. Alcohol and drug addiction is treated with a very controlled and monitored therapeutic program. High schools should run programs that involve counseling and group sessions for cigarette addicts. .....

The Environmental Protection Agency found classified second hand smoke to be a Class A Carcinogen, meaning that is proven to cause cancer in humans. Second hand smoke kills more than 3,800 people each year in the United States alone. It KILLS thousands of people each year! Second hand smoke is serious a serious matter. It contributes to millions of cases disease and disability, as well as thousands of deaths of American children.

.... vagina healthy & free of infection, but it is also hostile to sperm. Although vaginal fluid of adult woman is acidic, it tends to be alkaline in adolescents, predisposing sexually active teenagers to sexually transmitted diseases. In virgins, the mucosa near the distal vaginal orifice forms an incomplete partition called the hymen. The hymen is very vascular & tends to bleed when it is ruptured during the first coitus (sexual intercourse). However, its durability varies. In some females, it is ruptured during a sports activity, tampon insertion, or pelvic examination. Occasionally, it is so though that it must be breach surg .....

.... qualitative differences between Alzheimer’s disease and normal ageing’. Examples of such similarities between the effects of normal ageing and other experimental and clinical conditions shall be discussed at relevant points during the essay. The physiological effects of ageing on memory are still unclear. However, it is known that there is a correlation between memory decline and the degeneration of neurones. One example of such a link is the degeneration of the neural pathway between the basili nucleus and the cortex which has been associated with a decline in the storage components of memory (Pharmacology lecture, 1998). A .....

.... brief definition for, as his understanding of the dynamics of dreaming increased, so did the impression of ceaseless mental activity differing in quality from that of ordinary waking life (Fine, 1973). In fact, the quality of mental activity during sleep differed so radically from what we take to be the essence of mental functioning that Freud coined the term "Kingdom of the Illogical" to describe that realm of the human psyche. This technique of dream- interpretation allowed him to penetrate (Fine, 1973). We dream every single night whether it stays with us or not. It is a time when "our minds bring together material which is .....

.... between active and passive euthanasia. Passive euthanasia involves the patient's refusal of medical assistance. It involves the right to die which is protected by the United States Constitution clauses of due process liberty and the right to privacy (Fourteenth Amendment). The right to doctor- assisted suicide, or active euthanasia, consists of, "...a patient's right to authorize a physician to perform an act that intentionally results in the patient's death, without the physician's being held civilly or criminally liable for having caused the death" . The "passive" form of euthanasia was first deemed legal by the .....

.... is the most common reason to seek an early end. Second, a grave physical handicap exists that is so restricting that the individual cannot, even after due care, counseling, and re- training, tolerate such a limited existence. This handicap is a fairly rare reason for suicide; most impaired people cope remarkably well with their affliction, but there are some who would, at a certain point, rather die. We say that there is a second form of suicide; justifiable suicide, that is a rational and planned self-deliverance from a painful and hopeless disease which will shortly end in death. I do not think the word "suicide" sits well in .....
