This video explains how a contraceptive implant is fitted.
The contraceptive implant (Nexplanon) is a small flexible plastic rod that’s placed under the skin in your upper arm by a doctor or nurse. It releases the hormone progestogen into your bloodstream to prevent pregnancy and lasts for 3 years.

A contraceptive patch, also known as “the patch”, is a transdermal patch applied to the skin that releases synthetic oestrogen and progestogen hormones to prevent pregnancy. They have been shown to be as effective as the combined oral contraceptive pill with perfect use, and the patch may be more effective in typical use.[3][4]
Xulane[5] and Twirla[6] are approved for use in the United States. Evra is approved for use in Canada and marketed by Janssen Inc.,[7] and it is approved for use in the United Kingdom[8] and in Europe[9] and marketed by Janssen-Cilag.[8][9] The patches are packaged in boxes of three and are only available by prescription.[5]
Because the patch works similar to that of birth control pills, many of the benefits are the same. For example, the patch may make a woman’s period lighter and more regular. It may also help to clear acne, decrease cramps, and reduce PMS symptoms. Additionally, the patch is associated with an increased protection against iron deficiency anemia, ovarian cysts, pelvic inflammatory disease, and endometrial and ovarian cancer.[medical citation needed]
The patch is a simple and convenient form of birth control that requires weekly attention. When a woman stops using the patch, her ability to become pregnant returns quickly.[10] In three large clinical trials involving a total of 3,330 women using the Ortho Evra / Evra patch for up to one year, 12% of users discontinued the patch because of adverse events. The most frequent adverse events leading to patch discontinuation were: nausea and/or vomiting (2.4%), application site reaction (1.9%), breast discomfort, engorgement or pain (1.9%), headache (1.1%), and emotional lability (1.0%).[11]
The most frequent adverse events reported while using the Ortho Evra / Evra patch were: breast discomfort, engorgement or pain (22%), headache (21%), application site reaction (17%), nausea (17%), upper respiratory tract infection (10%), menstrual cramps (10%), and abdominal pain (9%).[11]
Breakthrough bleeding and/or spotting while using the Ortho Evra / Evra patch was reported by: 18% in cycle 1, 12% in cycle 3, 8% in cycle 6 and cycle 13. Breakthrough bleeding (requiring more than one pad or tampon per day) was reported by: 4% in cycle 1, 3% in cycle 3 and cycle 6, and 1% in cycle 13.[12]
Overall, side effects that tend to go away after two or three months include bleeding between periods, breast tenderness, and nausea and vomiting.[medical citation needed] Symptoms that may last longer include skin irritation around the area where the patch is placed and a change in the woman’s sexual desires.[medical citation needed]
Additional side effect information is provided in the Ortho Evra label information and the Evra Summary of Product Characteristics (SPC) and PIL.[5][8][13]
The patch sticks to your body—kind of like a Band-Aid—and prevents pregnancy by releasing hormones that stop ovulation and help block sperm from getting to the egg. It’s really easy to use—just stick it on and you’re good to go. Video Rating: / 5
This is called emergency contraception, that is, if there is a doubt that there is a possibility of pregnancy without using any kind of protection, such pregnancies can be prevented by using some medicines, it is called emergency contraception. This tablet should be taken 24 hours before that means 90% chances of not getting pregnant if taken within 24 hours of unprotected intercourse. The difference is that you can take it after you had sex. Emergency contraception pills are different from drugs used to end a pregnancy.

Explanation of how to find the molar mass of Ca(OH)2: Calcium hydroxide.
A few things to consider when finding the molar mass for Ca(OH)2:
– make sure you have the correct chemical formula.
– always include the units for molecular weight (grams/mole).
– make sure you do the math right – follow the order of operations.
Watch: Molar Mass in Three Easy Steps: https://youtu.be/o3MMBO8WxjY
Note that molecular weight, molar mass, and gram formula mass are essentially the same concept.
Finding the Molar Mass (sometimes called Molecular Weight although the units are different) of a compound is a essential skill for the chemistry topic of stoichiometry and the first step in converting from moles to grams (or grams to moles).

Using the Periodic Table look up the atomic weight of each of the elements in Ca(OH)2. In most cases is it appropriate to round to two decimal places when finding the molecular weight for Ca(OH)2 (unless you were told to do otherwise). For molar mass for Ca(OH)2 (molar mass and molecular weight are the same thing) just add the atomic weights.
Note that for Ca(OH)2 you need to be sure and apply the subscript 2 to both the O and H. In other words you have two oxygen atoms and two hydrogen atoms.
