Personal Hygiene

Personal hygiene may be described as the principle of maintaining cleanliness and grooming of the external body. It is in general looking after yourself. Personal hygiene can be controlled by sustaining high standards of personal care and humans have been aware of the importance of hygiene for thousands of years. The ancient Greeks spent many hours in the bath, using fragrances and make-up in an effort to beautify themselves and be presentable to others. Personal hygiene products are a billion dollar business in the commercial market, with many high profile celebrities endorsing products that aim to keep us looking our best. In fact, hygiene is actually a scientific study. Maintaining a high level of personal hygiene will help to increase self-esteem and confidence whilst minimising the chances of developing imperfections.

Family Planning
Family planning is the planning of when to have children, [1] and the use of birth control[2][3] and other techniques to implement such plans. Other techniques commonly used include sexuality education, [3][4] prevention and management of sexually transmitted infections, [3] pre-conception counseling[3] and management, and infertility management. [2]

Family planning is sometimes used in the wrong way also as a synonym for the use of birth control, though it often includes more. It is most usually applied to a female-male couple who wish to limit the number of children they have and/or to control the timing of pregnancy (also known as spacing children ). Family planning may encompass sterilization, as well as pregnancy termination. [5] Family planning services are defined as "educational, comprehensive medical or social activities which enable individuals, including minors, to determine freely the number and spacing of their children and to select the means by which this may be achieved."[4] Drugs
