Shut the front door: Scientists have finally found the perfect breasts. No, they weren't hiding in the Amazon or roving solo across the Sahara (although we have no doubt there are women in both the Amazon and the Sahara who have magnificent mammaries); it turns out these perfect breasts were hiding in a plastic surgeon's office this whole time! Now, before you get all worked up, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) would like you to know that the super-fake looking plastic breasts of yore are not actually what people think are most attractive now. According to a study published in the Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery—which involved asking over 1,300 people to look at pictures of naked boobies and rank them by hotness (stop laughing, this is serious research!)—people preferred a more "real" and "normal" look from their silicone, with the ideal breast shape having a 45:55 ratio. People said the best chests have 45 percent of the fullness above the nipple line and 55 percent of the fullness below, in a slightly teardrop shape. Researchers noted this preference remained consistent across gender, racial, and ethnic groups with the 45:55 ratio favored by 87 percent of women in their 30s, 90 percent of men, and 94 percent of plastic surgeons.
Part 2 of this educational video shows the dilatation and curettage (D&C) procedure, a gynecological operation used to sample or clear the uterine lining. It demonstrates the instruments and steps involved for clinicians and students. Procedure education only — not personal medical advice.
This childbirth video shows a water birth, in which labor and delivery take place in a tub of warm water. The recording presents the delivery as an educational record of this method of giving birth, which some mothers choose for comfort and relaxation during labor. Water birth is offered in many midwifery-led units.
A ventouse delivery — vacuum-assisted birth using a suction cup applied to the baby's head — is shown in this childbirth video. The method is used to assist delivery during the second stage of labor when progress slows or the baby needs help arriving. For obstetric learning. For learning purposes only — not medical advice.
A testicular examination is mainly performed on male patients who present with testicular pathology e.g. pain, swelling, a lump. Although titled testicular examination it involves the examination of the penis, scrotum and testes. As this is an intimate examination it is pertinent to gain a good rapport with your patient, maintain good communication and ensure the patient’s dignity at all times. Remember to offer a chaperone for this skill. For the purposes of your exam, you will most likely be examining a mannequin.
