520 |a "Planned parenthood - and its associated reproductive and sexual healthcare issues - has massive socioeconomic and demographic consequences worldwide. Modern contraception played a major role in the emancipation of women and has huge potential for a sustainable future world population. Yet it is a medical topic which always raises controversy, with serious ethical, religious and cultural overtones. This is an authoritative guide for all those working in reproductive healthcare. Highly practical, evidence-based, with enough detail to inform effective clinical practice, the book is structured on a lifestage approach, mirroring everyday experience of practitioners. All forms of contraceptives are covered in detail, with guidance on prescribing, the advantages and disadvantages of various techniques, and possible complications. The wider field of reproductive healthcare including subfertility and sexual assault are also covered. An ideal guide to contraception for trainees in obstetrics and gynaecology, primary care physicians and nurse-practitioners"--  |c Provided by publisher. 
520 |a "This book was written to provide practitioners working in all areas of reproductive medicine with a comprehensive, up-to-date review of current management options. The book covers the history of contraception, currently available methods as well as abortion, the primary care of subfertility, diagnosis and management of sexually transmitted infections and dealing with sexual assault. This book is unique in two ways: first, it considers women in their various life stages and, secondly, most chapters commence with a case history to which the reader can easily relate. Although there are many excellent texts on contraception available, the editors' aim with this book was to provide a resource to engage not only specialists but also the main providers of sexual health advice, general practitioners and practice nurses. The book is also very suitable for medical students who are looking for a broad understanding of reproductive and sexual health. The book could easily be read from cover to cover or the reader can dip into the various chapters as required"--  |c Provided by publisher.
