16
Q

GnRH fxn

A

stimulates anterior pituitary to release FSH and LH

17
Q

when does the menstrual cycle begin?

A

first day of menses

18
Q

follicular phase (general)

A

onset of menses - LH surge

proliferative phase of endometrium

19
Q

luteal phase

A

begins with LH surge ends with menses onset

secretory phase

20
Q

menstrual cycle in teens

A

35 days

shortens with maturation

21
Q

adult menstrual cycle

A

28 days (women 20-40)

10 yrs prior to menopause there is variability

22
Q

early follicular phase

A

ovary is not hormonally active

uterus is quiet

estradiol and progesterone levels fall

23
Q

hormone action in the early follicular phase

A

hypothalamus releases GnRH

GnRH releases FSH and LH

24
Q

what do FSH and LH do? (follicular phase)

A

cause follicles in the ovary to mature

25
Q

mid follicular phase

A

estradiol levels rise significantly by day 7 and multiple follicles are recruited for maturation, one becomes dominant

endometrium proliferates under influence of estrogen

26
Q

granulose cells

A

found in the developing follicles to produce estrogen

estrogen decreases FSH release and strongest follicle emerges

27
Q

late follicular phase

A

single dominant follicle is selected

estrogen stimulates thickening of endometrium

high estrogen levels increase amount and stringiness of cervical mucus

28
Q

LH surge

A

occurs during ovulation

serum estradiol levels elevate one day before ovulation causing a rise in LH

36 hrs after = ovulation

29
Q

most reliable indicator of ovulation

A

LH surge

30
Q

luteal phase

A

follicle cells transform to corpus luteum = progesterone release

31
Q

dominant hormone of luteal phase

A

progesterone

32
Q

mid to late luteal phase

IF fertilized

A

early embryo makes HcG which maintains corpus luteum

continued corpus luteum = progesterone production continues until steroidogeneis is well established

33
Q

mid to late luteal phase

NOT fertilized

A

LH levels fall and progesteorn/estradiol = decreased blood flow to endometrium

tissue sloughing and necrosis

GnRH secretion increases

34
Q

menstruation

A

prostaglandins produced due to falling progesterone

causes contraction of endometrial blood vessels and uterine muscles

lasts 3-7 days

35
Q

two layers of endometrium

A

funtionalis
basalis

continues to proliferate each cycle

36
Q

three phases of functionalis endometrium

A

menstrual (sloughing)
proliferative (growth)
secretory (organization)

37
Q

what causes irregular spotting/bleeding?

A

progesterone withdrawal doesn’t cause sloughing,

continued estrogenic stimulation causes endometrium to outstrip blood supply at irregular intervals
