Levonorgestrel


Hi!
This is my third blog and I will talk about Levonorgestrel. The Levonorgestrel is a contraceptive drug used for prevent pregnancy. The debate over preovulatory and postovulatory effects of levonorgestrel in emergency contraception seems endless.
The doctor Carlos Valenzuela´s speech was very interesting, because it is a polemic topic today and a debate endless between the church and the scientific society. Also this topic is very important for me, because it has directly related with my career and my future professional as midwifery. In the future I will have that attend to woman for different reasons and one of these reasons will be the family planning programs.
In the family planning programs my work as midwifery is give information about the different alternatives of drug contraceptives and method anticonceptive. In this point is important the doctor Carlos Valenzuela´s speech that talk about the Levonorgestrol as a drug emergency contraception discarding its abortive action.
The paper of the doctor Carlos Valenzuela about postovulatory effects of Levonorgestrel in emergency contraception it is not very clear as the speech about the same subject. I understood better the research paper, because the speech of Doctor Carlos Venezuela was clear and simple, also he made graphics on the board and showed others similar investigations.
The point of view of the doctor Valenzuela is that the Levonorgestrel is not abortive, because this pill has no effect on embryo implantation in the uterus. The Levonorgestrel stop the cycle of the embryo in the Fallopian Tubes and of this way prevents a pregnancy.
