30. Four Phases of the Human Sexual Response Phases General Characteristics Excitement  Initial physiological response towards arousal Plateau Intensified physiological response towards arousal and touch Orgasm The climax but the shortest phase of the sexual response cycle Resolution  The body slowly returns to its normal functioning level.

Understanding the Chemistry of Lust, Attraction and Attachment Lust – this is marked by physical attraction Attraction – You begin to crave for your partner’s presence.  Norepinephrine – responsible for the extra surge of energy and triggers increased heart rate, loss of appetite, as well as the desire to sleep.  Dopamine – associated with motivations and goal-directed behavior .  Serotonin – thought to cause obsessive thinking.  Attachment -  involves the desire to have lasting commitment with your significant other.

35. Natural Family Planning Method Natural Family Planning Method  It is the method that uses the body’s natural physiological changes and symptoms to identify the fertile and infertile phases of the menstrual cycle.

36. Natural Family Planning Method Periodic Abstinence Rhythm (calendar) method – the couple tracks the woman’s menstrual history to predict when she will ovulate. Basal body temperature (BBT) monitoring – it relies on monitoring woman’s basal body temperature on daily basis. Cervical mucus (ovulation) method. – also called the Billing’s method as this was devised by John and Evelyn Billings in the 1960s, it involves examining the color and viscosity of the cervical mucus to discover when the ovulation is occurring.  Lactation Amenorrhea Method – through exclusive breastfeeding, the woman is able to suppress ovulation.  Coitus Interruptus – the oldest method of contraception.

It contains synthetic estrogen and progesterone. Estrogen suppresses ovulation while progesterone decreases the permeability of the cervical muces to limit the sperm’s access to the ova.    Transdermal Contraceptive Patch – is a medicated adhesive patch that is placed on the skin to deliver a specific dose of medication through the skin and into the bloodstream.    Vaginal Ring – A birth control ring that is inserted into the vagina and slowly releases hormones through the vaginal wall into the bloodstream to prevent pregnancy.   Subdermal Implants – involve the delivery of a steroid progestin from polymer capsules or rodes placed under the skin.    Hormonal Injections – Contraceptive injection given once every three months.    Intrauterine device – T-shaped plastic device wrapped in copper or contains hormones   Chemical barriers – such as spermicides, vaginal gels and creams and glycerin films are also used to cause the death of sperms before they can enter the cervix.    Diaphragm – are dome shaped barrier methods of contraception that blocks the sperms from entering the uterus.    Cervical cap – It is a silicone cup inserted in the vagina to cover the cervix and keep the sperm out of the uterus.    Male condoms – It is a latex or synthetic rubber sheath placed on the erect penis before vaginal penetration.    Female Condoms – Thin pouch inserted in the vagina before sex  serving as protective barrier to prevent pregnancy and protection from STDs. 

38. Surgical Methods Surgical Methods – One of the most effective methods.  Vasectomy – a surgical operation wherein the tube that carries the sperm to a man’s penis is cut. It preserves ejaculation and does not cause impotence or erectile dysfunction since the vasectomy does not involve anything in the production of testosterone.  Tubal Ligation – It is a surgical procedure for female sterilization involving severing and tying the fallopian tubes.
