Stills uses ILFORD PHOTO chemicals on this course that can potentially pose a risk to pregnant and breast feeding women and asthmatics. We take every care to ensure good working practices and adequate ventilation in our darkrooms. If you feel you may be adversely affected, please visit the Health and Safety section of Ilford’s website for further information.   General Guidance Notes for Pregnant and Breast Feeding Women and Asthmatics: From a risk assessment standpoint, provided all necessary control measures (such as good working practices, adequate ventilation, and the use of appropriate PPE) are in place then pregnant and breastfeeding women should be able to continue to work safely with photochemical products.Inhalation is the main route by which fumes and gases enter the body, making good ventilation a high priority. Exposure to irritant chemicals that would not affect most people may provoke an asthma attack in a person who already has asthma. For example, low levels of the gas sulphur dioxide can be produced by some ILFORD PHOTO processes. Most individuals would be unaffected but asthmatics may suffer adverse affects. ILFORD PHOTO products include no known human carcinogens, and no substances to which phrase R46 (May cause heritable genetic damage) or R64 (May cause harm to breastfed babies) applies. Most ILFORD PHOTO developers use hydroquinone, and their classification therefore includes R40 (Limited evidence of a carcinogenic effect) and R68 (Possible risk of irreversible effects). Some ILFORD PHOTO chemicals use boric acid or borates. These substances are classified as toxic for reproduction. As a result, the classification of some of the powder developers includes R60 (May impair fertility) and R61 (May cause harm to the unborn child).

Description Infertility Awareness Diploma  The Infertility Awareness Diploma course is a gem for those who work in private clinics and practices dealing with fertility treatments. It can also act as the first step for people who want to start a career in this industry. Some emotions, thoughts, and behaviours may negatively impact a person conceiving a baby, increasing depression and anxiety. Psychological and emotional factors can block conception. The key lies in the relationship between partners trying to conceive together. Suppose you harbour any feelings of resentment or anger towards your significant other. In that case, if you do not enjoy your sexual relationship and do not feel a real connection to your partner and are simply partaking in the activities without passion, it can become challenging to conceive together. In the United Kingdom, several clinics are licensed and provide services from investigations to treatments for individuals facing fertility problems. Every clinic must employ an independent infertility counsellor who is a part of the staff at the clinic. Some of these counsellors work outside the clinic's premises as well. Some advertise their services online, while others advertise through local media or the National Health Society job website. If becoming an infertility therapist or counsellor interests you, you should consider enrolling in the Infertility Awareness Diploma course. This is one sector where every kind of experience is a valuable addition. Every person is entitled to enjoy the highest level and standard attainable for physical and psychological health. Individual persons and couples have the right to decide their children's number, spacing, and timing. The problem of infertility is detrimental to realising such essential and fundamental human rights. Thus, addressing infertility is critical to reducing gender disparity. Both men and women can face infertility problems; however, women with male partners are more prone to suffering infertility, whether or not there is actual physical truth. Infertility can significantly impact people's social lives negatively- both the social lives of couples and, particularly, the woman's. Women too often experience divorce, violence, emotional stress, social stigma, anxiety, low self-confidence and esteem, and depression. The Infertility Awareness Diploma programme was designed to help students understand this problem. This condition has been plaguing societies down to its roots and causes and learned how to diagnose and treat it. There are some cases where the fear of infertility leads to men and women being sceptical about using contraception. Some often experience social pressure to prove to others at a young age that they are fertile. This is a result of the high value placed by society on childbearing. These cases show the need for awareness-raising and education on the determinants and prevalence of fertility and infertility. Interventions must be accessible, available, and of high quality to address these issues effectively, a challenge in many nations. The diagnosis and treatment of infertility are sometimes not a priority at the national level. It is also rare to find reproductive health and development strategies and policies that cover whole populations sourced financially by public health plans. There is also an inadequate number of trained people, and some lack the supporting infrastructure and equipment. Currently, medicines for treatment cost a fortune and stand as a significant hurdle even in countries actively fighting for the needs of individuals with fertility issues. The Infertility Awareness Diploma course will prepare you for this sector, whether you are new or working in it. The programme suits healthcare professionals looking for additional training regarding infertility and who want to provide better service to their clients.
