Today I want to speak about the emergency contraception.

The idea of emergency contraception —-or a morning-after pill—- is based on a theory. Under this theory, if a woman has unprotected sexual intercourse (without use of contraception, contraception failure or cases of rape) and fears she may become pregnant, she can take large doses of birth control pills to prevent a pregnancy.

Emergency contraception, essentially, is a high dosage of the birth control pill. It is recommended for use after sexual intercourse, over a period of 72 hours, to achieve the goal of preventing pregnancy.

The World Health Organization (WHO) recognizes that emergency contraceptive (EC) s should be widely available and can be provided by pharmacists. In addition, WHO recognizes that EC is highly cost effective and that the cost of EC supplies and services will be more than covered by the savings to the health system in preventing unplanned pregnancy and abortions and their complications.

There are three different ways birth control pills are currently being promoted for this use: progesterone alone, estrogen alone, or both of these artificial steroids together. Again, these are the same steroids found in the typical birth control pill.

In my opinion emergency contraception is used to prevent pregnancy after a coital act not adequately protected by a regular method of contraception. In contrast to early medical abortion, emergency contraception prevents a pregnancy from starting and does not disrupt an established pregnancy.

However, if hormonal emergency contraception is inadvertently taken in early pregnancy, neither the woman nor the fetus will be harmed.

if exist a easier access to and a wider use of emergency contraception could dramatically lower the high rates of unintended pregnancy.

I'm studying in University of Chile. This is a very old building, so i think that important changes need to be done. About infrastructure, like i said before, it's a very old building and maybe it could be more modern, but laboratories and auditoriums are very good and they don't interfere with learning, wich at the end is the most important aspect to evaluate. My faculty has beautiful green areas, wich i think is very important because you can relax and forget for a while books, study, big tests, etc. It also has a special place where you can party with your friends and have a nice time.
Another aspect that i will improve in my faculty is COMPUTERS!!!!. For example, at this moment i'm writing, and i have to wait 5 or 10 minutes to open another page. Computers in library are very slow, this is very difficult because i think is a big obstacle to study. Many students don't have the money to buy a computer, so they need to study and do their homeworks with faculty's computers. The solution is to buy more computers.
I guess i will solve this situation talking with the person who is in charge of computers, because we pay a big amount of money, and it should be invest in things for students and not only for the university.
And last but no least,my faculty is full of street dogs, so i will give them a long bath because they smell bad, really bad.

hello everybody!

In this new phase of the course, I will talk about my favorite book. In this new phase of the course, I will talk about my favorite book. Is difficult to decide only one book that I like very much. I have a lot of books that I like, for example: “ I decided to live” , “Stories with soul”, “My orange lime plant”. If I have to choose one of these three books, the best is my orange lime plant. I read this book when I was in school. That was many years ago.

Is a book that I had the obligation to read when I was in High School. It is a book that tells about a boy of 7 years, which has a very aggressive family with him. His mother did not worry about it.

This kid knows a lot of people different from him. He learns from them, as they of him. This child will have to live strong experiences, such as child abuse, death of an adult who he met at the beginning of the story, and it was like his father image he had.

This plant was his friend, he told him everything. It was her friend unconditionally. It is a book that makes relfexionar on children's lives. About how children think at this age. As they see the adult world. This book would recommend it to teenagers to realize the vulnerability of children.

Is great book that we should read all

Today I'll write about my typical mistakes committed in these Blogs and my opinion about this activity.

For me it is difficult to realize the mistakes I made, because the level of English that we have is not high enough to write a text about a topic.

I think that to make a comment about any topic, and in another language, you must have a solid base to do it properly.

Otherwise it will made a lot of mistake in grammar, spelling and others.

I think the variety of topics that we have presented, have been a bit repetitive.

Such as what area of work I like to work, or where I am working on a future, or what area of my career I like.

But personally I like more, the activity where you could choose a topic on which to write.

I think that when you have the option to choose a theme, the ideas flow more easily, so it is much easier to write something in another language.

But if I do a little analysis, in compared of the others blogs of my classmates. I believe that, despite we don’t have a good level of English. we have been able to write good comments on the topics given.

Is difficult to think that since I like to work, because I still have three years to finish my career.

I have my ideals, that I would like to achieve when I start working. There are many ideas that I would like to perform, such as making a graduate PhD in Germany, a PhD of neonatology . I love this area, frankly I think is the most beautiful and where I can develop and give the better about me.

When I finish my PhD, and return to Chile, and the first thing that I would do , is work in the public area, because I think that here , in this place, or professional fields, is where they need a big number of professionals with a specialties.

At first I would like to hire me as a simple employee of the health field, where I will to get to know , who is the systematic of a hospital. I think it is fundamental, to know the area work where one is developed, for then be able to make modifications or have people in charge.

After I working in the public area, I would like to go to private area. but I will see over time and the amount of job opportunities that I come up.

To day, I will write about education.

The education in Chile is a subject of great importance in our society.

In general, the education is not very well evaluated.

It is a national problem that gradually has tried to improve. There is a big difference to educational attainment; this difference is much more, when they begin the University admissions. The question we all ask…..Why is this happening?

All responses are arguing this big difference, but nobody changes or tries to change this system.

Is known that there are big differences between private and public education, except for some cases.

We know that private education has more capital to make as many activities, than the public education, advantage that the public education does not have. This is reflected also in what is health prevention at school.

This is all a cycle, we depend on all. If it fails the cornerstone, which are those who teach others. What can expect from the training of professionals? A few years ago, the government has implemented a prevention education and early S.O.S for teachers, in an emergency.

This system of prevention in health should be in every school, and there is no difference between the public and private.

I believe that all children in all schools should have access to this plan of health prevention and early SOS. Nobody should be excluded. Since we can all be at risk in any situation.
