Item’s are ‘child’ level descriptions to ‘parent’ objects, (e.g. one page of a whole book).

  • THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN Thursday October 19, 1972 page 3 (The Western Carolinian today begins a weekly series of sex education columns, to appear in each Thursday edition. The authors are two Chapel Hill authorities on human sexuality. Dr. Takey Crist, M.D., is Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the School of Medicine at UNC-Chapel Hill, and chairman of the board of directors of the Sexuality Committee, a Chapel Hill - based group that has been called the most advanced sexual awareness committee in the United States. His associate Is Ms. Lana Starnes, who writes the weekly column.) By LANA STARNES And DR. TAKEY CRIST QUESTION: I need to know if tubal ligation has side effects or complication. Do you recommend vasectomy or tubal ligation? What is cheaper? - Signed, Mother. Dear Mother: The choice of the operation whether it be done in the male or the female should be left entirely up to the couple. The physician should be an advisory, but the final decision as to who should have the operation is the couple's responsibility. As to the side effects or complications from a tubal ligation, that all depends on the method used, the type of anathesia used, the age of the patient, the number of pregnancies she may have had and what kind of care she will receive, The vasectomy is a much cheaper operation,particularly if it is done on an outpatient basis. QUESTION: While taking the pill, is sexual intercourse safe for the whole 28 days, or only for the 21 days on the pill? Also, Is It abnormal for my periods to be scantier while on the pill? - Signed, Wondering. Dear Wondering: If the pill is taken correctly you are safe the entire 28 days of the cycle. Intercourse may be a little messy during the last seven days since you will normally be having your period, but it is safe. It is perfectly normal for your periods to become "scantier" while on the pilL You may not even have a period after being on the pill for three or four months. And there is some evidence that menstrual cramps improve. QUESTION: I heard you speak about two years ago, and I seem to remember you saying that douching Is not necessary. I am married now and I would like to know if this Is true and why. If douching is necessary, what method do you most recommend? Also, how effective are Norforms? - Signed, Interested. Dear Interested: Douching is not necessary because it is felt that in most cases it will alter the normal acidity in the protective environment of the vagina, and thus may eventually encourage infection. However, most women want to douche right after a menstrual period, and most doctors will recommend an occassional douche with a mild vinegar and water solution - usually one to two tablespoons of white distilled vinegar to a quart of warm water. We feel that the commercially prepared solutions are not necessary and the most they do is sensitize the sensitive vaginal mucousa. We are not aware of any studies that have compared Norform to douching with vinegar and water. QUESTION: Is there such a thing as a chastity belt these days? - Signed, Curious. Dear Curious: The last time we saw one was in a museum. Yes, they do exist, They probably had their beginning somewhere in the 15th century. There is mention In a Italian manuscript in 1405 of a "girdle of chastity" used for contraception. Our best sources say that as late as 1897, the United States government granted a patent to a Michael McCormick for a "male chastity belt," whereby fathers could put them on their adolescent sons to prevent masturbation. Our veterinarian friends have informed us they still make chastity belts for female dogs.

Al rights reserved. Germino Joins Staff Health Program Receives Boost Victor Germino, Jr. has been around the world several times as a deck hand on a freighter. He has sold insurance and driven an ambulance. However, the Durham native, likes to serve others and in this pursuit is employed at Graham Infirmary as a Physician's Associate. The Physician's Associate program Is a new idea in health services. The PA program was envisioned by many in the medical field to place returning veterans with medical training at the sides of doctors. Dr/ Eugene Steed, Chief of Medicine at IXike University Medical Center, was one of these people who were, and still are, behind the program. Germino served in the Navy as a medical corpsman with duty at Great Lakes Naval Hospital and at the National Navy Medical Center in Bethesda, Md. He has done undergraduate work at the University of Maryland, University of North Carolina, and Duke University. He comes to Western Carolina University after serving as a Physicians Associate to Dr. Kaye Kilburn and Dr, Siegfried Hey- den at Duke. "Student health is a growing aspect of medical care and the PA is a great aid in providing better health care," says Germino. ' *You can see everything when you are working with student health services. Most of the students are very appreciative of what you are trying to do. The students at Western get more out of their health care program than the students at Duke, At Duke, the students must make an appointment. If the Infirmary wasn't here, most of the students would try to cure themselves with patent medicines," Germino went on to say that the health services here are closer to the students than anywhere else. "As far as colds and routine complaints, students here don't get any better care than anywhere else. The health care at WCU is on a par with other university health care services." In speaking about the personnel at Graham Infirmary, Germino said, "They are a fine group to work with. Each one is very interested In each student." In closing Germino spoke about the WCU Ambulance Ser- VICTOR GERMINO vice saying, "The Ambulance Service is a fine group of dedicated students. Having worked with an ambulance service in Durham, I know that these attendants here are constantly working to serve their fellow students." New Committee cific gripe... about somebody ripping you off" the comittee will evaluate the situation, determine it's relevancy and then have the responsibility of submitting the criticism to the specific instructor along with any additional comments or solutions it may deem necessary.
