Question

(a) Intensely lactating mothers generally do not conceive. Why?
Answer:
Lactational amenorrhea prevents ovulation during intense lactation. Prolactin, the hormone responsible for milk production, suppresses gonadotropin release. (b) Why has our government intentionally imposed strict conditions for MTP (Medical Termination of Pregnancy)?

Hint:

Lactational amenorrhea is a natural contraceptive method but is not completely reliable for preventing pregnancy.

Answer 1

Intense lactation inhibits ovulation through lactational amenorrhea. Gonadotropin release is suppressed by prolactin, the hormone governing milk production. (b) What are the reasons for the government's deliberate imposition of stringent regulations on Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP)?
% Solution Solution: To prevent exploitation and ensure MTP is performed solely for valid medical or legal justifications. Safeguards women's health and entitlements.
