ask the sexpert What is your opinion of the risks and benefits for women who use I.U.D. 's and have never been pregnant? The following guidelines are from the Planned Parenthood Federation of America’s reports from October, 1980, which con cluded that for “most women” the IUD continues to be a safe and effective method of birth control. Not all women are good can didates for IUD insertion. Con sideration must be given to age, marital status, sexual habits, lifestyle, previous history of pel vic infections, childbearing plans and the appropriateness of other methods. Women under 25 who have had previous pelvic infections, who have never been pregnant, and who have several sexual partners are seven to 12 times more likely to develop infections than others When choosing an IUD, the non-medicated ones, such as the Lippes Loop, are larger and women who have had a child tend to have better luck with them. The medicated lUD’s, such as the Copper 7 or the Progestasert. T, tend to cause less menstrual blood loss, work well for women with a small uterus, and women who have never had a child lUD’s may be inserted at any time as long as the women isn’t pregnant. Insertion is usually easier during a woman’s period because the cervix is softer, there is less likelihood of insert ing into a pregnant uterus, and the bleeding associated with insertion tends to reduce the patient’s apprehensions. During the first year the IUD is 96 percent effective in prevent ing pregnancy and tends to in crease in effectiveness with continued use. If a woman becomes pregnant with the IUD in place, it should be removed immediately. Insertion and removal of lUD’s should always be done by a trained medical practitioner, not by the patient.

It is important to remember that not all women respond to lUD's in the same way. A woman’s medical his tory, lifestyle, and habits will all contribute to determining whether the IUD is a good choice for her. Once the IUD is in place, women are protected and need not worry about lack of spontaneity, taking pills, in serting foams, jellies or a diaph ragm. Correction. Planned Parent hood would like to apologize to the readers of last week’s Sex pert column of Jan. 22. In re sponding to the question about ‘‘what causes blue balls” one important piece of information slipped by. The pain from blue balls that men usually exper ience in the scrotum following a prolonged period of sexual arousal without release is a real physiological phenomenon. This pain is caused both by the engorgement of blood in the tissues and pressure from un released sperm in the epididymis of the testicles. This pain is usually relieved by ejaculation, whether through masturbation or coitus. Thanks for calling this to our attention. This column is written by the Community Education Depart ment at Planned Parenthood. Please submit questions to Education Department, 134 E. 13th Ave., or to Suite 300 EMU. County considers ticket tax Lane County Commissioners, looking for ways to fill the coun ty's barren coffers, are con-, side/ing adding a 10-percent surcharge to the price of tickets for some public events. But the Event Admissions Tax apparently has little support. “Back East, it’s a fairly com mon form of revenue,” explains county management analyst Diane Helickson. The entertainment tax has been levied “primarily on sport ing events,” but it could include concerts, speeches and theater performances, Helickson says. The tax could be imposed either as a flat rate or as a per centage of admission fJtice, depending on the decision of the county commissioners, she says. But some commissioners say they don’t like the tax. Commis sioner Scott Lieuallen says the commission is “not inclined" to support it.
