Gusset girls

Tights with a cotton gusset

The photo: The lovely soft thick cotton gusset of a pair of my play tights that can effectively absorb my coital discharge after taking an unprotected man. I Kegel of course, if I have time, but one can never get all a lover’s spend especially if taken from behind during ballet-sex with a large man when he fills the posterior fornix.

Cotton gussets and feminine hygiene: With the women enrolled in my current Pelvic Intensive as sexually active as they are with multiple partners it very important that their tights have soft absorbent cotton gussets to wick away sweat and coitial discharge as there will always be a certain amount of drainage. And for me the gusset seams cradle my vulva and the wide central seam presses gently on the shaft of my clitoris keeping me aroused, wet and ready for my next opportunity to enjoy a lusty man penetrating me.

Absorbent gussets and condoms: Under some circumstances latex condoms can be such fun! I find them useful in some situations especially when I am out in public and my partner gets frisky. Then if he didn’t wear a condom I would drain a great deal more into my thong, tights or swimsuit which could be embarrassing. In the winter I always wear tights with cotton gussets. However, even if my vulva is cosseted by a cotton gusset a condom will make spontaneous sex much less messy and for fantasists condoms can add another level to sex play especially if the man has an impregnation fantasy.

As I’ve mentioned in previous posts a surprising number of my lovers like to fantasize about impregnating me. Well probably any woman they are with but it thrills me that in their imaginations they are impregnating me, and if I’m not careful they could stand a good chance of doing just that. I tease them after they have ejaculated and safely pulled out by stripping off the condom, tying off the open end and biting through the tip to suck out the semen while it is still thick, warm and creamy. I think of swallowing it as a nutritional supplement. When it is sliding down my throat I always think that it could have had such a different effect on me had he released it deep in my vagina against my unprotected ripe cervix and I tease him about eating all his little wiggly baby-makers knowing that he would boast about impregnating me should it ever happen and he found out.

Should my barrier protection ever fail I’d take EllaOne (30 mg of ulipristal acetate) which blocks the progestin receptors for five days and hope it would delay ovulation long enough that his sperm in my tubes would be dead by the time I release the egg. While I love risk taking, my idea of fun is having him spew his seed against the stretchy latex dome of my favorite flat spring diaphragm with my egg white fertile cervical mucus filling the dome. I still have a few Reflexions ones that I use even though our clinic now has its own FS latex diaphragms to supply Escorts who are the primary users of FS latex diaphragms.

Bea is with me for Spring break: Trinity College Cambridge Spring break is from Friday March 11 through March 20^th. Classes resume on Monday March 21^st. Marvin (Morning Wood) is staying at Trinity in his lodgings to ‘work’, but I know he is playing with his current ‘bed-bunny’, Miss GyneFix née Nexplanon. Bea brought along a boyfriend in his early 20s from her ballet class and even though we have plenty of spare bedrooms they are sleeping together. Of course they are! They make a lovely couple and seem to like each other a lot although it may just be the sex as theirs is still a very new romance and passion if not pure lust is still obvious between them.

Seizure at ten fathoms: One of the Flowers, Heather, had some sort of seizure during a dive-sex encounter while tethered with an ankle leash to the bottom of the shallow (65 foot) deep well. Her partner released the Velcro ankle strap on the leash and hit the fill on her BC and they both surfaced w/o a decompression stop. Fortunately Carla my Divemaster had her boyfriend, a dive medicine doctor who works for a clinic in Aberdeen, visiting and they got Heather and her partner, Doc, on to amphibious gurneys and rolled them up the ramp of the access platform and into the multi-bed hypobaric chamber within minutes of Heather’s seizure. Fortunately she was wearing an OTS Guardian FFM and didn’t vomit so other than biting her tongue she could breathe though she lost consciousness.

They were breathing Enriched Air Nitrox with 32% oxygen (EAN32) and had been down long enough to require at least one deco stop. Doc will be fine. It’s unclear what caused Heather’s seizure and she was helo-lifted to private dive-medicine facility in Milford Haven for extensive testing. This was the first use of the MBHC with an actual patient. Carla, my Divemaster, and her dive medicine boyfriend worked like the professional team they are getting Heather stabilized and to the helicopter when it arrived. The massive freight elevator runs all the way from the mechanical room for the pumps and filtering system below the pools past the pool level where the MBHC is located to the surface in the lower bailey where there is room to unload heavy equipment and land a helicopter. 

In addition to the seizure at the very least she had a case of the Bends and no one knows yet what caused her seizure so it’s unclear what if any long term effects she may have other than probably never diving again. Doc was told to rest for several days so Bea and her boyfriend have filled in for Heather and Doc on the pelvic training schedule. Bea and especially her Cambridge stud-muffin didn’t seem to mind boarding the sexual merry-go-round with the Flowers and Elves so this could be a test of their affection for one another.

I had Bea and Stud-muffin stop by our London clinic before boarding The Dragon for the trip to Caersws and Blackthorn Castle to update their full STI panels and to test for the Zika virus. Bea also had an ultrasound to make sure her GyneFix was still in place. Zika seems unlikely but at Cambridge where there are a lot of men traveling back and forth from countries where Zika is running rampant one can never be too careful and the sale of condoms at Universities in the UK has spiked as women try to protect themselves from Zika since even though they may not be pregnant there is the chance of Guillen Barre and paralysis and no athlete/dancer wants to risk that.

Fortunately Bea brought her pointe-shoes and practice clothes with her and her dive gear is here so she is already kitted out and Stud-muffin can wear Marvin’s kit so he too is good to go.  Bea is somewhat used to a frequent change of sexual partners but Stud-muffin is in for sex with many more beautiful partners than he could have ever anticipated. It will be interesting to see how that affects his sexual stamina and his relationship with Bea.

 

Sex and the push-up bra

Adjustable racer-back details of front close extra lift bra

The photo: The racer-back of a VS So Obsessed front-close push-up that provides extra lift which in fetish circles is sometimes called a ‘razor-back” because of the number of elastic back bands that have been slit - or weakened so they come apart while the wearer is on the dance floor - by jealous rivals usually in a fetish club ladies’ loo using a razor blade paint scraper as an offensive weapon. A box cutter will work as well though I think it’s too heavy and bulky to conveniently carry in a clutch while clubbing. Because costume sabotage is common among competitive women it’s always a good idea to go into the ladies loo of a fetish club in pairs to watch one another’s backs.

Sex and the push-up: For Balanchine bodied ballerinas like me; long legs and neck, short trunk, small breasts and head the push-up bra is a necessity when out clubbing at venues where there is a need to show cleavage. The extra lift gives me (a B-cup with lactating breasts) amazingly deep cleavage that when worn with a revealing top guarantees a man will have a hard time looking me in the eye when talking to me because he can’t get his eyes off my cleavage. When that happens I can sometimes see the drape in his slacks change as he becomes hard and fanaticizes about cumming on my chest and watching his semen drain down my cleavage and my pelvis begins to tingle as I start to become aroused. I’m shamelessly brazen when the mood strikes me, especially when I’m fertile, so thinking about what he might do to me if I could get him alone gets me wet and all because I’m wearing a push-up. Marvin has no idea wearing a push-up affects me so strongly that way.

Extra lift front closure bras are amazing to breast feed in too and it’s such a surprise to a new man when I offer to let him milk me.  I love playing with a man’s mind like that while feeling amazingly desirable, feminine and very attractive and it works not just with men I meet for the first time, but with the men I’m around all the time as well; Marvin, Chris my Gyn, Alexei and Jack to name a few.

Veronika and her Ben Wa set: Returning readers will recall that Veronika is the ballerina daughter of my close Belgravia neighbor and Russian ex-pat Alexei. She asked me to help her increase her pelvic skills and one of those is Pompoir, being able to milk the semen from a man while he remains stationary inside her.  It’s what I use to call ‘ripple grip’ which I think better describes that muscle flexing technique. The primary training device for isolating and strengthening of the vaginal muscle sets to be able to milk a man effectively is a pair of Ben Wa balls.  I have her training with a one inch diameter surgical stainless steel set.

Each ball weighs 2.307 oz.) for a total of 4.614 oz. of steel, more than a quarter of a pound and she has become proficient in moving the balls up and down her vaginal barrel while performing household tasks and can even hold them in place in pointe class doing jumps and développés while en pointe. Pompoir is said to be one of the sexual skills that Wallis Simpson used on King Edward VIII that made him so in thrall to her that he abdicated the English throne in order to marry her.

The Mares Trick is far too advanced to be teaching at this point in her training, but being able to successfully accomplish Pompoir is an important requirement on the way.

She has been trying out her penis milking skills on several of her ballet partners and has set off something of a rivalry between them for her attention. However, she is still looking for Mr. Right while enjoying Mr. Right Now. That’s quite similar to what Morning Wood and I are doing, enjoying secondary sexual partners to take advantage of situations that arise and to fill urgent needs when we aren’t together.  As the saying goes “when I’m not near the man I love I love the man I’m near.”

The contraceptive sponge and pregnancy: In our clinic we have recently seen several women testing positive for hCG after using the Today sponge. The Today contraceptive sponge is not currently available over-the-counter in the UK, but can be purchased on the Internet. Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a hormone produced by the syncytiotrophoblast, a portion of the placenta following implantation. The presence of hCG is detected in pregnancy tests. Amazon.uk has Today sponge vaginal contraceptive sponge – box of 3 for 17.36 GBP which depending on how much sex you have might be a good deal compared with condoms.

The Today sponge contains the spermicide Nonoxynol-9 (N9) and is supposed to be capable for protecting against pregnancy for an unlimited number of acts of IC over an interval of 24 hours and should be removed no earlier than 6 hours after the last act of IC and should not be worn continuously for more than 30 hours. When it first came available in the U.S. it was advertised as being effective for 48 hours, two days, which is how the Today sponge got its name.

We had another walk-in patient who wanted help removing a sponge that had been forced into her posterior fornix by a well endowed partner. She has short fingers and freaked out when she found it was off her cervix and she couldn’t reach it. She could have used a long handled spoon to tease the sponge out from behind her cervix, but was too upset to think clearly. We removed the sponge soaked with her fertile cervical mucus and semen and gave her the EC pill ellaOne.

Happy Easter: I’d like to wish my readers the blessings of the Easter season. Even though I’m a Priestess of the Goddess Aphrodite I respect the beliefs of my readers of all different faiths.

 

Menstrual ballet-sex

Spoiled and oiled, a dancer in a French-leg one-piece gropesuit

The photo: This olive nylon/spandex gropesuit providing easy access to the vagina from the front for removal of a menstrual cup can be worn for private pointe class when there is likely to be after class menstrual ballet-sex with a teacher who enjoys very bloody sex.

Suit design limits entry options: The crotch snugly grips the mons pubis and vulva and is stretchy enough to cover the head of a sports plug when inserted. I mention very bloody sex because with the modified back of this suit rear entry is not possible while it is being worn and rear entry menstrual sex would be far less messy for the man.

With front entry for ballet-sex the women is usually up against a wall or the mirrors in the studio - I like being backed against or held against a mirrored wall as it is far easier to clean the coital discharge off glass than a plaster or cement wall - or he has her with her legs around his waist, his hands clutching her butt cheeks and their pelvises pressed tightly together where she can continuously bleed on him as he thrusts into her. 

For partying I sometimes wear this style as it is form flattering and makes my legs look even longer while being relatively easy to breast feed in if a lover wants to milk me by just slipping out of the shoulder straps and peeling down the top. Missionary sex is fine when I’m not bleeding and I have a cervical barrier inserted for protection, but I don’t wear it for menstrual sex. However, it is ideal for having a lover use a vibi on my clit.

Fertility and the gropesuit: This topic came to mind as I’m CD7 and my menses for this cycle are over so I’m looking forward to the hormonal high of being fertile for a few days starting this weekend. During the fertile hormone surge many of us aren’t looking for Mr. right, we’re looking for Mr. right now! Women who are cycling naturally (like me) often choose provocative attire when we are fertile. I enjoy wearing salaciously cut gropesuits in swimwear, latex catsuits or in more vanilla surroundings push-up bras.

When fertile we are far more apt to be too adventuresome and initiate or agree to sexual encounters with dangerous men. Not criminally dangerous, but socially dangerous meaning those with a history of causing unintended impregnation of casual sex partners who think their contraceptive protection is adequate. But women on a hormonal high with a testosterone scented man in her arms often feels she is invincible and besides if she thinks her birth control might have failed there is always the emergency contraceptive ella or ellaOne, a 30mg tablet of ulipristal acetate, soon to be available in the UK w/o an Rx.  

Shoes for menstrual ballet-sex: I always wear a pair of old but survivable hard shanked Gaynor Minden pointes for menstrual ballet sex as there is almost no chance of keeping them free of splatters of menstrual discharge when no diaphragm is being worn for flow control. Afterward I let them dry, brush off the crusty blood splatters and coat the stained pink satin with flesh colored pink pancake makeup to cover the stains and studio/stage grime.

The menstrual cup during menstrual ballet-sex: For a woman wearing the gropesuit pictured at the top of this post a male partner who enjoys the taste of his partner’s menstrual discharge can pull the crotch covering fabric to one side and carefully insert two fingers to break the seal of her cup then carefully remove it and drink the contents clots and all before inserting the emptied cup in her cleavage for safekeeping where he can enjoy the scent of her flow rising from the still bloody cup, or he can place the cup in her mouth as a gag of sorts while he soothes her cramps with deep thrusting front entry penile stimulation of her g-spot to orgasm.

I don’t mind swallowing a partner’s semen, actually I rather enjoy thinking about digesting the hundreds of millions of live sperm that if placed in me through another body opening could cause me to become pregnant. However, I have tasted my own menstrual flow and I’d rather not do so as part of a menstrual sex encounter.  I prefer having the empty but still bloody cup pushed down my cleavage where he can smell the scent as he thrusts into me.

Max-headroom girls: There are a few of us small women, defined here as a height of 5’5” and below, who have vagina’s deep enough to take an 80mm or larger latex diaphragm. The escorts in this category are coming to be known as ‘Max-headroom’ girls – the nickname of their trainer - who is marvelously endowed. The Max headroom girls are in increasingly demand with rubber fetishists to the extent that there aren’t enough fully trained Max-headroom ballet escorts to cover the demand. 

   

Effectiveness tests for users of hormonal contraceptives: I urge women who I am training as escorts to have a copper IUD, preferably a stringless GyneFix, inserted – they are so much easier to get here in the UK - if they don’t mind the sometimes heavier flow during menses. That way they can experience the hormonal swings of their natural cycles such as the peak in libido felt while fertile and offer menstrual sex as an option for clients. However we do offer Lab tests to check the effectiveness of hormonal methods as well as standard pregnancy tests. The tests for progesterone and hCG levels are routinely given for the escorts safety.

An hCG urine test is given by the clinician to test for pregnancy and a PSGN progesterone saliva test is given to check for a clinical efficacy level of PSHN to assure that a woman on hormonal birth control is effectively protected by suppression of ovulation. We have found the occasionally a woman on HBC will be taking supplements or meds that decrease the effectiveness of the hormonal birth control she is using or that a mischievous partner has intentionally given her something that binds to her progestin receptors making her birth control ineffective.

Will, April and dive-sex: April called to let me know how SCUBA sex had gone with Willamina in her home pool in Chelsea. April hasn’t passed her open water SCUBA certification yet, but she says it’s a matter of scheduling around her ballet performances. However, she is diving with her Milex Arcing spring diaphragm inserted wearing an OTS Guardian FFM and soloing with a dildo while fastened to the bottom of the pool with a very short ankle leash; or taken from behind by Will wearing 2 inch diameter 10 inch long silicone strap-on. I’ve warned both Will and April that 10 inches is far too long to be safely used on April, but both say that spacer rings are being used and gradually removed as they try for maximum depth w/o harm to April. I hope they are careful as both want April to bear a child later in their relationship.

Dive-sex at Lake Tahoe

Gigi diving a Kirby Morgan Band Mask at Tahoe

Altitude Diving in Lake Tahoe: I’ve mentioned several times in earlier entries that there is a significant increase in altitude – about 4300 feet (1311 meters) - between Vegas and Lake Tahoe. Adolph’s place is on the Calif side just south of Truckee. Dive computers with digital altitude adjustment are a must as there is a considerable difference between dive tables for altitude and surface diving. For example: at Lake Tahoe a 96 ft dive at an altitude of 6220 ft makes it the equivalent of a 125 ft dive at sea level. That could get a diver in serious trouble if she was pushing her limits for a safe dive. I mentioned in an earlier post (my entry January 31, 2010) about one of Adolph’s girls who had a DCS attack at Lake Tahoe because she had been multiple diving in Vegas the day before and drove to Tahoe the next morning.

Dive-sex in Lake Tahoe: The water in the lake is primarily the result of snow melt from the Sierra Nevada range on the west and the Carson range on the east. The water temperature near the surface generally cools to 40 F to 50 F during February and March, and warms to 65 F to 70 F August and September. Below 600-700 foot depths, the water temperature remains a constant 39 F. so even in august the surface water is chilly for shallow dive-sex. It’s uncomfortably cold for women even for a short interval in a wetsuit with an open crotch zipper, but with dive gel at least we stay lubed. For guys it’s almost impossible for most of them to maintain a working erection even when using a performance enhancer and cock-ring. Some of my stallions are experimenting with heated Laddy-Caddys, but so far have had mixed results. For dive-sex at Lake Tahoe its best to use a heated swimming pool and Adolph has two large ones at his place there.

A reader’s question: Do you feel any responsibility for the death of the guy who was in trouble with the Mob who drowned during his dive-sex fantasy.

Uhhh, no! It was his fantasy. He was an adult and could swim and was a qualified PADI diver. He wanted to fuck tight hairless pussy deep underwater and I was just there to give him a fantasy of that sort that was to die for. Guys need to be careful what they wish for because sometimes they just might get it. You know what I’m saying? I was nothing more to him than a tight warm, deep vessel for him to fill with semen. I clipped the cock-ring off his shaft after we got to the surface and massaged the blood back so it settled in his pelvis while he was still warm. I think all the ME could tell was that he had gotten off recently. He had been cut so there was no foreskin to trap my DNA and the chemicals in the pool washed all my fluids off him.

EllaOne and the pill: One of the French SI students is on Qlaira and vomited her pill shortly after taking it so she took ellaOne (which she had brought with her) as emergency contraception. EllaOne seems to have a lot of the same interactions with other meds that regular birth control pills have. Although, in the case of birth control pills themselves, because ellaOne blocks absorption of progestin it will make continuing to take BCPs less effective. So it’s recommended that a woman on the pill should continue her pills while using back-up until she has finished her pack and been on the new pack for at least a week. The information below is from the ellaOne patient instruction leaflet:

“Taking other medicines
Please tell your doctor, healthcare provider or pharmacist if you are taking or have recently taken any other medicines, including medicines obtained without a prescription.

Be sure to tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking any of the medicines listed below, as these medicines can make Ellaone less effective in preventing pregnancy:

- Certain medicines used to treat epilepsy (phenytoin, phenobarbital, carbamazepine)
- Certain medicines used to treat HIV infection (ritonavir)
- Medicines used to treat certain bacterial infections (for example rifampicin)
- Herbal remedies containing St John's wort (Hypericum perforatum) used for depression or anxiety
- Certain medicines used to treat acidity of the stomach or ulcers (for example omeprazole)

Ellaone may also make regular hormonal contraceptives less effective. Therefore you should use a reliable barrier contraceptive method such as condom until your next period.

Ellaone should not be used together with emergency contraceptives containing levonorgestrel.

The activity of Ellaone may be increased if you are taking certain medicines such as medicines to treat fungal infections (for example, ketoconazole, itraconazole), or certain infections (for example, telithromycin, clarithromycin) as they may increase the amount of Ellaone in your body.”

ellaOne closer to U.S availability

ellaOne (ulipristal acetate) another step closer

Panel Recommends Approval of After-Sex Pill to Prevent Pregnancy

GAITHERSBURG, Md. — A federal advisory panel voted unanimously Thursday that federal drug regulators should approve a medicine that could help prevent pregnancy if taken as late as five days after unprotected sex.

The pill, called ella, sprang from government labs and appears to be more effective than Plan B, a morning-after pill now available over the counter to women 18 and older that gradually loses efficacy after intercourse and can be taken at latest three days after sex. ella, by contrast, works just as well on the fifth day as the first after sex.

Ella blocks the effects of progesterone, a female hormone that spurs ovulation. It is a chemical relative to RU-486, the abortion pill, and some mystery remains over exactly how it works. That mystery spurred a fierce debate outside the committee over whether it should be considered an abortion drug, a debate that prompted the posting of several uniformed police officers around the meeting room.

The F.D.A. usually follows the advice of its advisory panels but not always.

The dispute is whether the drug works by delaying ovulation (as the pill’s manufacturer claims) or by preventing a fertilized egg from implanting itself in the uterus (as anti-abortion advocates say).

Dr. Jeffrey Bray, a pharmacologist at the Food and Drug Administration, said that ella may do both. And Dr. Scott Emerson, a committee member and professor of biostatistics at the University of Washington, said any drug that can prevent pregnancy if taken five days after unprotected sex must do more than simply delay ovulation.

Animal studies showed that ella had little effect on established pregnancies, suggesting it acts differently than RU-486. Dr. David Archer, a professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Eastern Virginia Medical School who spoke on behalf of ella’s maker, said ella was not an abortion pill. “I just don’t think there is any element here that would allow me to say that this has an abortifacient activity,” Dr. Archer said.

ella is manufactured by HRA Pharma, a tiny French drug maker. If approved, the medicine would be available by prescription only. Born in the United States, ella was approved for sale in Europe last fall. During the meeting, anti-abortion and abortion rights advocates traded salvos. Wendy Wright, president of Concerned Women for America, a conservative group, called ella an unsafe abortion pill that men might slip to unsuspecting women.

“With ella, women will be enticed to buy a poorly tested abortion pill in the guise of a morning-after pill,” she said. Ms. Wright was followed to the microphone by Amy Allina, program director of the National Women’s Health Network, who said abortion questions were distractions intended to prevent “medically safe contraceptive options from becoming available.”

The committee spent the day in a cold discussion of the sobering realities that follow moments of passion, a discussion punctuated by the clacking of knitting needles from Dr. Paula Hilliard, a committee member and professor of gynecologic specialties at the Stanford University School of Medicine. It was a conversation mostly among women. Dr. Erin Gainer, HRA Pharma’s chief executive, is a young woman, and nine of the committee’s 11 members are women. Women’s health advocates say that the need for better contraceptive options is clear.

James Trussell, director of the Office of Population Research at Princeton University, who spoke on behalf of the company, said that more than one million women who do not want to get pregnant are estimated to have unprotected sex every night in the United States, and more than 25,000 become pregnant every year after being sexually assaulted. Half of all pregnancies in the United States are unintended even though contraceptives are almost universally accepted by women.

Even though ella is somewhat more effective and can be taken later than Plan B, the new drug would, if approved, probably do little to solve this epidemic of unplanned pregnancies. Plan B has been available without a prescription since 2006 for women 18 and older, but abortion and unintended-pregnancy rates have remained largely unchanged.

Women who have unprotected sex have about one chance in 20 of becoming pregnant. Those who take Plan B within three days cut that risk to about one chance in 40, and if ella is approved, that risk would be cut further to about one chance in 50. ella is less effective in obese women, studies show.

Dr. Valerie Montgomery Rice, a committee member and dean of Meharry Medical College in Nashville, pressed the company and F.D.A. to make the drug available over the counter, as is Plan B. “Why would we not move to O.T.C. status?” she asked. Dr. Gainer said the medicine was too new to consider such a step.

ella was originally developed by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. The institute, now named after Eunice Kennedy Shriver, is part of the National Institutes of Health. It decided in 2002 during the avowedly anti-abortion Bush administration to finance a crucial study to assess the drug’s efficacy as an emergency contraceptive.

The FDA and ulipristal acetate

ellaOne pack ulipristal acetate

FDA panel to mull 'morning-after pill' effective 5 days after sex

A Food and Drug Administration advisory committee will meet June 17 to consider whether the agency should approve a new emergency contraceptive that studies show is more effective than Plan B, the only "morning-after pill" on the U.S. market.

HRA Pharma of Paris launched ulipristal acetate in October 2009 and sells it in 21 European countries under the brand name ellaOne. As in Europe, ulipristal would be available only by prescription in the USA. Plan B, the brand name for levonorgestrel, is available without a prescription to women 17 and older, but those under 17 require a prescription.

Plan B is approved for use up to 72 hours after unprotected sex; even within that window, though, it becomes less effective over time. But two company-funded trials involving more than 3,000 women, published in February, found that ulipristal was consistently effective up to 120 hours, or five days, after unprotected sex.

In one randomized study, researchers compared ulipristal to levonorgestrel in women who had sought emergency contraception at family-planning clinics in the USA, Britain and Ireland within five days of having unprotected sex.

About 1,700 of the women received emergency contraception within 72 hours of having unprotected sex. Half got ulipristal and the other half received levonorgestrel. In the ulipristal group, 15 ended up getting pregnant, compared with 22 who took levonorgestrel.

Among 203 women who received emergency contraception 72 hours to 120 hours after unprotected sex, there were three pregnancies, all in women who had been given levonorgestrel.

The other study published in February focused on 1,241 women who had come to Planned Parenthood clinics for emergency contraception 48 to 120 hours after unprotected sex. All of them received ulipristal. About 2%, or 26, still ended up getting pregnant, but those who took the pill five days after unprotected sex were no more likely to get pregnant than those who took it two days afterward.

"If it were my daughter, I'd want her to have ulipristal rather than Plan B in her medicine cabinet," says Paul Fine, co-author of the studies, professor of obstetrics, gynecology and urology at Houston's Baylor College of Medicine and medical director of Planned Parenthood of Houston, southeast Texas and Louisiana.

More safety data are needed before ulipristal could be sold without a prescription, Fine and his co-authors wrote Feb. 13 in The Lancet.

Ulipristal and levonorgestrel work by inhibiting ovulation, Fine says. He disputed comments filed with the FDA on June 1 by Americans United for Life, an anti-abortion group that likened ulipristal to RU-486, the so-called abortion pill, which is its chemical cousin.

But Fine counters that ulipristal did not cause abortions in women who got pregnant after taking it.

Personal comment: In my entry for January 29, 2010 I mentioned that Elke brought along a supply of ellaOne to use after encounters with Adolph, even though she has a GyneFix IUD implanted, because she had heard how fertile he is. Anyway, the FDA will be holding hearings this week to help decide if they should approve ulipristal acetate for use in the U.S. as an emergency contraceptive. There is sure to be a spirited discussion, but I hope it is quickly approved.

Elke and ellaOne

ellaOne the new European emergency contraceptive

Elke completes dive-sex instructor training: Returning readers will remember Elke, the former ballet dancer who is the Athletics Mistress who will be teaching Dive-sex at an elite Swiss girl’s school on Lake Maggiore. She began her two week instructors training course with Robin on January 13th and completed it on the 27th. Robin gives her high marks for strength, stamina and technique. He also said she is nice enough around adults but has a sadistic side and carries a riding crop to discipline students when out of the pool and in pointes. She is a Domme dressed as Miss Julie (without the suicidal tendencies of the character in the story) and with the sting of a scorpion. She is visiting Adolph for a few days before she returns to Switzerland and her position at the school as their parents were friends. Adolph likes a bit of the lash and has been looking for some one to administer it with Teutonic vigor so they should get along well together. She is anxious to have the experience of diving to the bottom of his 200 foot deep diver discipline facility.

I had a talk with her before she left to visit Adolph and cautioned her to be on guard and check her equipment thoroughly before diving. I’m rather attracted to her, especially when she is in a latex body condom, and in many respects I see myself in her when I was her age, though I have to admit I enjoy lashing men rather than girls. She is fun to be with and considerate of her students, well, for a German Domme I mean. So I don’t want to see anything bad happen to her and visiting Adolph can be a high risk activity. The diver’s drysuit inflator that failed while Adolph and I were with her in the discipline facility wasn’t an isolated instance. Rumors are that young women who dive that training facility almost always have equipment problems: dump valves sticking open, inflators not working, masks that flood, low pressure hoses coming lose, running out of air before they should, buckles of weight belts that won’t open etc. and you don’t want to run out of air or have buoyancy problems in water 200 ft deep. Part of that is the way Adolph trains or administers discipline, but I think a lot is because he wants to see if the girls can extract themselves from possibly fatal situations, and inevitably some can’t. I gave her a pony bottle and a lift bag both disguised as lead weights and helped her fit them on her weight belt so as long as she wears that weight set if she has trouble she can reach the surface.

ellaOne: Elke intends to have sex with Adolph during her visit which is a good thing since I’m certain he intends to have sex with her so she has a supply of ellaOne, the new European emergency contraceptive, which uses ulipristal acetate to decrease a woman’s progesterone to prevent ovulation and implantation. EllaOne is effective for 5 days rather than the 3 days for Plan B and is only available by prescription since it can be used as an abortifacient because, like Mifeprex, it stops production of progestin so will cause an implanted egg to detach from the uterine wall, which Plan B won’t do. EllaOne has a single 30 mg pill dosing regimen. Elke has a GyneFix implanted so she is extremely unlikely to become pregnant by him, but she is paranoid about becoming pregnant by a new partner so will take ellaOne every few days while having sex with Adolph.

Swim caps for breath play: A swim cap is something that can be easily carried even by men and a cap looks harmless. However it makes a very effective asphyxiation device and occasionally there are unfortunate breath play ‘accidents’ between BDSM partners where a cap will be fastened over the bottom’s face for a bit too long and brain damage or death results. Out here, my experience in cleaning up after that sort of accident is that most of the brain damage from swim cap asphyxia occurs to men and swim cap deaths occur to women. Almost always swim cap accidents involve penetrative sex where the dominant partner loses track of time and the sub can’t give the safety signal or was ignored. There have been a few security videos which show a bottom frantically signaling and his partner continuing to thrust until he finished inside the guy, much too late to save him. The ones where the guy dies make great snuff videos as they sell to multiple markets; the Gay community that has sympathy for the Dom who in a fit of lust kills his partner and also to the conservatives who are opposed to Gay sex.

Some straight Doms out here just seem to have ‘accidents’, killing women for sport. They will pick up a stray in her teens who came out here to break into show business and ended up waiting tables and working as a dick-a-chick to make a living. Many of those girls just disappear w/o a trace after agreeing to ‘model’ for sadists. The guys don’t want to be seen losing women in their circle so when they need an extreme violence fix they troll for a stray and have their way with her. A swim cap doesn’t set off any alarm bells. Actually many girls think the guy is thoughtful and has the cap to give them so they won’t mess up their hair by getting it wet in the pool. That sort of thinking is very naïve and can often be fatal.
