The shedding of the
uterine lining through
the vagina, commonly
called “a period”
Periods may be
irregular for 12 – 18
months after first
period

WHAT IS THE MENSTRUAL

•
CYCLE?
Menstrual Cycle = how the body prepares
itself each month to accommodate a growing
pregnancy if it were to occur
• The time between when “periods” start

• Normal for a menstrual cycle to be between 21-

35 days long
• Controlled by the hormones estrogen and
progesterone

Menstruation

Last Two Weeks Follicle Develops

= egg

FERTILIZATION
• Fertilization occurs in the fallopian
tube (2 weeks before period would begin)

• Over half of all fertilized eggs don’t

become a pregnancy

• If it lives, within 12 hours the egg

begins to divide &
travels down the fallopian
tube toward the uterus

IMPLANTATION
WHEN PREGNANCY BEGINS
• Egg reaches uterus after 4-5 days &
plants itself in the endometrium.
This is called implantation.

• Implantation is what most health

care providers consider the
beginning of
pregnancy (conception)

PREGNANCY OPTIONS:
• Carry pregnancy to term & become a parent

• Carry pregnancy to term & make an adoption plan

• Abortion

Local Pregnancy Providers:

- Birth Choice
- Planned Parenthood

STAGES OF PREGNANCY
Pregnancy is divided into three 3-month periods called “trimesters”

1st Trimester 2nd Trimester 3rd

Trimester

12

6
 6/21/2019

FIRST TRIMESTER (MONTHS

1-3)• Many people don’t know they are pregnant during 1st trimester
• Embryo/fetus/baby needs enough folic acid (Vitamin B-9) to
develop properly
• Tobacco, alcohol, drugs, infections, and unhealthy life choices
can harm embryo/fetus/baby

13

Placenta- A blood
vessel rich organ that
form in the mother’s
uterus that attaches to
the fetus which
provides nutrients,
oxygen, and rids the
baby’s waste during
pregnancy.

14

 6/21/2019

FIRST TRIMESTER (MONTHS

1-3)
• Embryo from 5-11 weeks
– Major organs
– Neural tube Weeks of development
– Beginnings of eyes, ears, lips

• Fetus at 12 weeks
– Umbilical cord connects fetus
to placenta

• By end of 3rd month

– 2-3 inches long
– Beginnings of sex organs
– Begins to move

15

Sex Determination
• Humans have 46 chromosomes

• Half (23) are carried in biological mother’s egg

• Half (23) are carried in biological father’s sperm
• Sperm & egg each have one sex chromosome
• All eggs carry an “X” sex chromosome
• Sperm can either carry an “X” or a “Y” sex chromosome – this
means the sperm determines the sex of the fetus/baby
•

Egg (X) + Sperm (X) = female (XX)

Egg (X) + Sperm (Y) = male (XY)

uterus without a lot of
special medical attention

 6/21/2019

Signs of Dating Abuse

 Pushes you or hit’s you

 Makes you feel scared
 Constantly call’s or page’s you
 Threatens suicide if you break up
 Pressures or force’s you to have sex

10

5
 6/21/2019

 Threatens to tell your parents or friends

private things about you
 Start fights that never seem to end
 Always accuses you of cheating
 Threatens to "out" you
 Makes you feel badly about yourself,
your friends or your family?

11

Things to remember…
 The signs and symptoms of abuse within
teenage relationships are similar to those of
other types of domestic violence.

 They may include physical violence, sexual

assault, and emotional and/or
psychological abuse.

12

6
 6/21/2019

 Relationship abuse is a cycle. First you feel

as though you are walking on eggshells.
Then there is hitting or a scary incident. The
abuser then apologizes and promises not to
do it again.
 This cycle may repeat itself.

13

 Relationship violence gets worse over time.

 Take seriously any threats that are made.

You are important and do not deserve to be
treated abusively.

14

7
 6/21/2019

 Many acts of abuse begin early in dating

relationships.

 Date and acquaintance rape may happen at

the beginning of a relationship before
there has been any physical intimacy.

15

 Anyone can be a victim and anyone can be

an abuser.

 Regardless of age, gender, sexuality,

race, class, or religious affiliation.

16

8
 6/21/2019

 Jealousy and possessiveness are not signs

of love.

 In a healthy, loving relationship, people

trust and support one another and respect
each other’s independence. In a healthy
relationship, your partner should want what
is best for you.

17

 There is no excuse for abuse.

 The abuser makes a choice to harm you. It

is not your fault, no matter what other
people say.

18

9
 6/21/2019

 According to the Teen Dating Violence

Initiative enacted by Congress, more than
40 percent of high school students (male
and female, ages 16 to 19) have been the
victim of dating violence (verbal, physical
or emotional) at least once.

19

 Even though teen dating violence can be a

problem anywhere, with any gender
or sexual orientation, males and females are
typically abusive in different ways.

20

10
 6/21/2019

 Females are more likely to threaten to hurt

themselves, cause superficial injuries (such
as pinching or scratching) and be verbally
abusive. Males are more likely to cause
severe physical injuries

21

Prevalence of Dating Abuse

 In a survey of over four thousand 9th
through 12th graders, approximately 1 in 5
females reported physical and/or sexual
abuse by a dating partner.

28

14
 6/21/2019

 36.4% of teenage girls and 37.1% of boys

reported receiving some form of physical
aggression from dating partners at least
once.

29

 Girls reported that their boyfriends initiated

the violence 70% of the time while boys
only reported that their girlfriends were the
initiators 27% of the time.

30

15
 6/21/2019

 Females between the ages of 16 and 24

experience the highest rates of domestic
violence.

 Approximately 43% of teen dating violence

victims reported that the dating abuse they
experienced occurred in a school building
or on school grounds.

31

 40% of teenage girls know of someone who

has been beaten by a boyfriend.

 30% of all murdered teenage girls are killed

by a current or former boyfriend.

32

16
 6/21/2019

Domestic Violence
&
Dating Violence

The similarities…

33

 Domestic violence and dating violence are

very similar. In both cases, the abuser uses
physical, emotional and/or sexual violence
to control the victim. Domestic violence
usually refers to couples who are married or
living together.

34

17
 6/21/2019

 Dating violence refers to couples who are in

a casual or serious dating relationship and
who may or may not be intimate.

35

 While dating and domestic violence are

much the same, there are differences.
Unmarried adults can experience dating
violence but often the victims are young.

36

18
 6/21/2019

 Teenagers experiencing dating violence

must not only face the pain of abuse but
several other obstacles as well. They have
even fewer resources available to them than
victims of domestic violence

37

 In some cases, domestic violence shelters

are unable to accept victims under the age
of 18, and young people often fear they
won't be believed or taken seriously. They
may be searching for independence and
want to handle the problem on their own.
They may think abuse is a normal part of
relationships.

38

19
 6/21/2019

39

 It is common for teen abusers to use stalking

behaviors to monitor their dating partner's activities
while still dating or after the partner has tried to end
the relationship.

40

20
 6/21/2019

 Stalking behaviors may not look dangerous

to others, but they are intended to be threats
to the partner to stay in the relationship and
remain under the control of the abuser.

41

 Stalking can take many forms, such as:

42

21
 6/21/2019

 Following or appearing within sight of the targeted

victim.
 Approaching or confronting the targeted victim in a
public or private place.
 Appearing at the workplace or the home of the
targeted victim.
 Entering or remaining on the targeted victim's
property.
 Contacting the targeted victim by telephone over
and over again.

43

 Sending repeated mail or email to the targeted

victim.

 Using cell phones, computers or surveillance

equipment to keep tabs on the targeted victim.

44

22
 6/21/2019

 Using the Internet or other electronic means to stalk

someone. This is commonly known as CYBERSTALKING.
The stalker may use search engines, bulletin and discussion
boards, online forums, chat rooms as well as online
communities like MySpace, Facebook, Friendster and
Indymedia to stalk the victim, sometimes without the victim
even knowing it.

45

 One example of this would be if the abuser sends

flowers or gifts to the partner with a carefully worded
apology designed to coerce her to not leave the
relationship.

ABSTINENCE = 100% EFFECTIVE

 Abstain = to not do something

 Abstinence = not having any sex

HORMONAL BIRTH CONTROL

WORKS:
2. Stops ovulation: Prevents eggs from
coming out of the ovaries.

3. Thins the lining of the

uterus: Makes it more
challenging for a fertilized
egg to implant.
1. Thickens the cervical
mucous: Makes it difficult
for sperm to get through.
