    Recurrent interstitial pregnancy
    (Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, 1998) Sungurtekin Ü.; Uyar Y.
    As a rare form of ectopic pregnancy, interstitial pregnancy threatens the future fertility of the patient. Methods of management include observation only, medical treatment with methotrexate either systemically or locally, or surgery either with laparotomy or laparoscopy. We present the case of a woman with recurrent interstitial pregnancy. Treatment with methotrexate was successful in her first interstitial pregnancy, however the second necessitated laparotomy. Selection of patients for treatment with methotrexate and the importance of subsequent tubal investigation are emphasized.

    Sexual behaviour during pregnancy
    (Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, 1999) Oruç S.; Esen A.; Laçin S.; Adigüzel H.; Uyar Y.; Koyuncu F.
    The effects of pregnancy on sexuality were studied in 158 pregnant women. They were surveyed by questionnaire about sociodemographic variables and sexual behaviour. Dyspareunia was common in our study group during pregnancy. Pregnancy had a negative effect on orgasmic quality. Dyspareunia and orgasmic quality influenced coital frequency. Coital frequency declined as the month of the pregnancy increased. Pregnancy is a potent influence on sexuality irrespective of an individual's conditioning.
