Teaching Learning Strategy N/A<br />
A. Sexuality<br />
• sexuality and reproductive health are interdependent<br />
• sexuality is a natural and healthy part of living<br />
• sexuality involves more than sex and sex involves more than sexual intercourse<br />
• sexual feelings and sexual behaviour are integral aspects of reproductive health<br />
B. Fertility<br />
Requirements for Male Fertility<br />
• normal sperm production, which includes a healthy ductal system, normal count,<br />
mobility, biological structure and functioning of sperm<br />
• transmit sperm to female vagina through:<br />
− an adequate sexual drive<br />
− the ability to maintain an erection<br />
− the ability to achieve a normal ejaculation<br />
− the placement of ejaculate in vagina<br />
Requirements for Female Fertility<br />
• adequate sexual drive and sexual function to permit coitus<br />
• functioning reproductive anatomy and physiology that include:<br />
− vagina capable of receiving sperm<br />
− normal cervical mucus to allow passage of sperm to the upper genital tract<br />
− ovulatory cycles<br />
− fallopian tubes that will function to permit the sperm and ovum to meet and allow<br />
migration of the product of conception to the uterus<br />
− uterus capable of developing and sustaining the product of conception to maturity<br />
− adequate hormonal status to maintain pregnancy<br />
− normal immunological responses to accommodate sperm, product of<br />
conception (fertilized ovum) and fetal survival<br />
− adequate nutritional, chemical and health status to maintain nutrition and<br />
oxygenation of placenta and fetus<br />
C. Infertility<br />
The most common causes of infertility include:<br />
• the woman not ovulating<br />
• the man not producing a sufficient amount of healthy sperm<br />
• some barrier to the transport of sperm or ovum through the womanÕs fallopian tube<br />
(e.g., scar tissue in the fallopian tubes)<br />
