Beyond the usual perversions Freud described and psychiatric nosography, some new sexual behaviours are nowadays coming to light, with a view to overstepping limits, and this in a mood for provoking, if not transgressing! As with classic perversions, the very play, the ambiguity with sexual difference, seems to be the very game and not the classic denial of this difference.
Women's behaviour before induced abortion during an ultrasonographic exam was described. A psychosomatic analysis was carried out in the discussion to try to explain the different women's attitudes. Most women do not want to see ultrasonographic scan or keep photographs. One must of course respect women's choices as to their desire to see or not the ultrasound image of their foetus when pre-induced abortion ultrasound examination is performed. One should nonetheless be able to listen to their request, be it implicit.
From the hypothesis that preterm labour is a physical expression of a difficulty to have a cheerful pregnancy, we wanted to assess from a literature review:--the link between stress, anxiety, and preterm birth for one part--and the medical advantage of psychosocial or psychological support among women having a high risk of preterm birth for another. According to the available publications, stress, psychological disturbances, and anxiety can increase the risk of preterm birth. However, psychosocial support is not associated with an improvement of the perinatal outcome. On the other hand, psychological support for women having a preterm labour, with or without hospitalisation, seems an interesting medical approach to reduce the preterm birth rate.
