College writing courses give students a good chance to learn that writing can be an enjoyable experience. Previous schooling has left me, and maybe others, with an unfair negative opinion towards writing. College has given writing a second chance for me, leaving behind the earlier days of forced idea writing, by allowing self made thesis and introducing personal feedback into the writing process. Writing in high school was not very enjoyable. For four years I was made by my teachers to despise having to write. Every paper was forced to go along with their narrow topics while not allowing any input by the students. I was not able to write how I wanted to, they all had to be done how the teachers wanted them to be done. It was more of a task keeping to exactly what they wanted other than wanting to explore the information creating your own opinion on the topic. Each student s paper was essentially the same thing in the end, all molded by one source. To me this is not what writing is about, writing should be unique and have a sense of how the writer wants to make their point. This could not be done under the strict guidelines set forth in high school but writing is not like that as I soon learned. Writing in college turned out to be enjoyable. A new way of expressing and gathering ideas, free writing, was introduced. The teacher had us make our own thesis other than giving us them and forcing us to conform to the one idea. This is the freedom writing should be about and turned writing into something interesting. With the increase of freedom, some challenge is added as well. While being forced on a certain path the writing was easy even though much hated. When given our own path to choose there is a welcomed challenge to the writing and gives it value. The papers are no longer copies of the other students just with different mistakes but they are now pieces of original work that mean a lot more than any other papers I have written before. Writing is something that can be enjoyed by everybody. I once hated to have anything to do with writing, but a fair chance for it was never given to me in high school. College has let me experience writing in the way that it should be and it s a form of expression that is well liked.
Infertility is defined as the "inability to naturally conceive a child or to carry a pregnancy to full term." The majority of medical experts will not classify a person and/or a couple as infertile until they have been trying for at least a year to get pregnant without any success. Women who find themselves able to become pregnant but then have repeat miscarriages are often classified as being infertile. There are numerous reasons why a couple may find themselves unable to conceive a child and may find it necessary to seek medical assistance in order to do so.
The International Council on Infertility Information Dissemination (INCIID) deems a couple to be infertile if after one year of unprotected intercourse they have not conceived. This drops to six months if the woman is 35 years of age or older. The reason for this is that a woman's fertility takes a drastic drop at the age of 35 and it continues to drop even further after that age. Being able to sustain a pregnancy and carry it to term is important as well so if a woman is unable to do that then she is classified as infertile.
Approximately 10 percent of all individuals of reproductive age are infertile which works out to be 15 percent of couples. On average 40 percent of the time the infertility has to do with the man while 40 percent of the time it has to do with the woman. The rest of the time it can be as a result of both of the sexes. Most healthy couples in their twenties who are having sex on a regular basis have a one in four chance of conceiving a child in any given month of the calendar year. This is what the medical community refers to as "fecundity."
The American Society for Reproductive Medicine estimates that 6.1 million individuals residing in the United States are infertile. As stated above, one third of the time it is due to a male factor, the other third of the time it is a female factor, the problem co-existing between the man and the woman accounts for the problem 15 percent of the time while there are still other instances where the cases of infertility is mysterious and unexplained. This is known as primary infertility.
There is also such a thing as secondary infertility and this is when a woman has a difficult time conceiving a child after she has already had a child in the past or previous children with little if any complications at all. Sometimes this is attributed to a medical condition such as a hormonal problem but it could also be a problem that is connected with age or else as the result of mental stress and strain to make sure that the first child has a brother or sister. If the woman has changed partners and is now having a problem getting pregnant this is not attributed to secondary infertility.
There are also instances where a woman's ovaries have not matured to a point where they can release eggs every month as they are supposed to. When this happens, injections of synthetic FSH can be administered in order to stimulate the eggs to properly mature in the ovaries.
