PREGNANCY PLANNING
©AND HEALTH
Mrs. Gloria Riggsbee
Dear Mrs. Riggsbee:
I am going to be married
soon and want to use birth
control until we decide we are
ready to have a baby. Could
you please list all the methods
and tell me how safe they are?
Miss K.
Dear Miss K:
By "safe" 1 assume you are
asking how "effective" each
method is in preventing preg
nancy. We measure the effec
tiveness of methods like this:
If 100 women were engaging in
sex regularly and using a par
ticular method of birth con
trol for one year, how many
would get pregnant before the
year was over?
The pregnancy rate for
women using the birth control
pills would be less than one
woman a year out of 100.
With the IUDs (loop or shield),
doctors would expect from 2-5
pregnancies a year among 100
women. With the diaphragm
(rubber), there would be about
1015 pregnancies. Among 100
women using a contraceptive
cream or jelly alone, the
rhythm method (done very
carefully), or withdrawal by
the male, at least 20 to 30
pregnancies. If no method at
all were used by 100 women,
about 80 would be pregnant
before the year was over.
You can see that the most
effective methods are * those
you can get only with a doc
tor'* prescription: the pilli and
IUD. If you want the best pro
tect against oregnancy, I
sug c „.ou ma appoint
ment with a doctor or visit the
family planning clinic at your
Seagram's
7 Crown.
K fits right into
- your world.

Metropolis Berlin Is Scenic, Too

Because West Berlin is a highly-industrialized metrop
olis, not many people realize that it also abounds in all
the scenic attractions that anyone could desire, including
many quiet and picturesque corners such as the one above
in the Kolk section of the Berlin borough of Spandau. For
instance, did you know that one-third of Berlin's total area
of 186 sq. miles consists of parks, woods and forests,
lakes and rivers'' Add the 16% of land under agricultural
use, and the open areas total 49%, against only 37% that
are built-up portions.
All visitors like to explore portions of Berlin's 8,000
acres of parkland more than one million trees and shrubs
have been replanted since 1945 in Tiergarten Park alone;
but equally worth a visit—and a palette''!—are Tegel Park
with its neo-classic Humboldt Castle. Schlosspark which
contains the famous Charlottenburg Castle, Kleinglienicke
Park that affords fine vistas on the Havel River, Jung
fernheide Park which has an open-air theatre, and Reh
berge Park with its deer sanctuary.
If water is preferred. Berlin has Lake Wannsee, with its
half-mile of beachfront that makes it Europe's largest in
land bathing spot; Lake Tegel, where the beaches are
flanked by aromatic pine forests, and the shores of the
10-mile Havel River that links Wannsee and Tegel. Cruise
steamers, sailboats, rowboats, outboard runabouts and
canoes add color and gaiety to these scenic pleasure
spots in Germany's largest industrial center.
health department before you
are married and let the doctor
help you decide which method
would be best for you.
Dear Mrs. Riggsbee:
1 have been taking birth
control pills for some time
now, but I stopped taking
them in August. My period
started in September, but it
has not started for October.
I am sure 1 am not pregnant
because I have not had inter
course.
Why would there be a delay
in getting back on schedule?
And will being late cause any
harm to toy body? Please
write me and ell me if 1 have
anything to worry about. Also,
can you recommend anything
I can buy over the drugstore
counter that will help my
periods to start without my
having to see a doctor.
Mrs. M.
Dear Mrs. M.:
It is not unusual for two
to three ~ , onths to pass before
your periods get on a regular
basis after you have stopped
taking the pill. 1 do not think
you have anything to worry
about; a late period will not
cause any harm to your body.
If you have had intercourse at
any time (without using birth
control) since you stopped
taking the pill, then, of course,
there is a chance that you
might be pregnant.
I suggest that you wait un
til the time your December
period should start. If you skip
that also, then you should
check with a doctor. I do not
know of any medication you
can buy without a prescription
that will cause your period to
start.

Dear Mrs. Riggsbee:
1 think there is something
wrong with me and I hope you
can tell me what it could be
and what kind of doctor I
should go to.
I was jttcl married three
weeks ago and we went to
Florida for a honeymoon. We
really had a wonderful time,
but when we got back I
noticed that I was urinating
more often than usual. I
stopped drinking soft drinks,
but that didn't do any good.
And now when I urinate, it
burns and gives me a little
pain.
We are new in town so we
don't know any doctors yet.
Can you tell me what I might
have; Have 1 caught something
like V. D.? Should I go to a
doctor or will it go away by
itself?
Mrs. P. R.
Dear Mrs. R.:
It is not unusual for a new
bride to develop cystitus (an
infection of the bladder) short
ly after her honeymoon. It
