Hi to everyone one more time! in this time I will talk about the LEVONORGESTREL, considering Dr. Carlos Valenzuela's speech.
Well, for starters I will talk about how important was the presentation of Dr. Carlos Valenzuela. In my view this presentation is of great importance to our professional training and for the important data delivered, but it is also important for the reason that we can have an informed view.
Certainly with the Doctor Valenzuela's speech I could understand better his inestigation about the LEVONORGESTREL, as clarified many points and was very educational for explaining how he carried out his work in defense of his hypothesis about the controversial LEVONORGESTREL,also he was very helpful the graphics used statistics to more clearly explain the issue.
The "LEVONORGESTREL" is an emergency contraceptive of very controversial use, known by most people as "day-after pill" and as previously mentioned its use is very controversial, as there are people who consider that is a pill abortive and others not consider an abortive method. From the point of view of Dr. Valenzuela "LEVONORGESTREL" is not an abortive method, because It not affects the implantation of the conceptus in the uterus, and it has effect on the follicle. This drug is used after having sexual relation , seeking to prevent an unwanted pregnancy.
In my point of view, the "abortion" is the termination of pregnancy causing the death of the product of pregnancy, altering the process, whether natural or artificial way, since the embryo has life from my point of view, since the male sperm unites with the female egg (union of gametes). On the other hand an "ectopic pregnancy is a pregnancy complication in which the product of fertilization takes place in different tissues of the uterus, either in the oviducts (more often) in the ovary, cervix or pelvic or abdominal cavity.
As for the terms "Contraceptive" and "Anticontraceptive" I believe that there are two terms that refer to the same, since both are related to prevent conception.
Finally, from my point of view the use of "LEVONORGESTREL" must be highly regulated, because this drug is very useful for extreme cases such as rape, however, must be restraint in its use, the effects and also because controversy has idiológica that the use of this pill has.
