Can someone tell me what the role and what hormones for menstrual cycle.  

Also, stuck on this question:



This is the ans from marking scheme:

Fertility drugs: FSH causes ovaries to produce more eggs, thus increasing chance of fertilization.

Chemical: contraceptive pill prevents FSH release. This prevents egg development so ovulation is prevented.

Simple, symmetrical ethers can be formed by the acid-catalyzed condensation of two molecules of an alcohol.  For example, diethyl ether will form is ethanol is treated with concentrated sulfuric acid.

But in the Mary Jones textbook on Page 81, Chemical method is described as using chemicals. The method where hormones are used is called the Hormonal method.

I actually got the answer from the follwoing site: http://www.ferris.edu/htmls/academics/course.offerings/balandap/Organic/CHEM124/Problems/Ethers_and_epoxides_ANS.htm

it has equations.

just press ctrl+F and type formation of ethers....its sumwhere in the middle of the page...

Ether is a class of organic compounds that contain an ether group — an oxygen atom connected to two alkyl or aryl groups — of general formula R–O–R. A typical example is the solvent and anesthetic diethyl ether, commonly referred to simply as "ether" (CH3-CH2-O-CH2-CH3). Ethers are common in organic chemistry and pervasive in biochemistry, as they are common linkages in carbohydrates and lignin.

Try going to the following links to find what specific areas you want answers in.

Halogenation of ether
Hydrolysis of ether
Oxidation of ether
Peroxide formation
Ring substitution in aromatic ethers

Hmm... possible. Here are the exact wordings:

Quote
Chemical methods use chemicals called spremicides, which kill sperm. They are best used in combination with another method. For example, spermicides may be inserted into the vagina with a cap.
