61
Q

endometrium

A

layer of the uterus facing the lumen

62

female sexual cycle

A

events that occur every 21 days when pregnancy does not occur

63
Q

cycles of the sexual cycle

A

ovarian and menstrual cycles

64
Q

ovarian cycle

A

monthly events of the ovaries

65
Q

phases of the ovarian cycle

A

follicular and luteal phases

66
Q

days of the follicular phase

A

days 1-14

67
Q

days of the luteal phase

A

days 15-28

68
Q

menstrual cycle

A

monthly changes to the uterus

69
Q

phases of the menstrual cycle

A

menstrual, proliferation, secretory, prementsrual

70
Q

days of the menstrual phase

A

days 1-5

71
Q

days of the proliferative phase

A

days 6-14

72
Q

days of the secretory phase

A

days 15-26

73
Q

days of the premenstrual phase

A

`days 26-28

74
Q

what occurs in the follicular phase

A

ovarian follicle develops

75
Q

what menstrual phases occur during the follicular phase

A

menstrual and proliferative phases

76
Q

what occurs in the menstrual phase

A

previously built up menstrual wall sloughs away

77
Q

what occurs in the proliferative phase

A

endometrium goes through mitosis

78
Q

ovulation

A

ovum is released from the follicle

79
Q

on what day of the sexual cycle does ovulation occur

A

day 15

80
Q

luteal phase

A

ovulated follicle becomes corpus luteum, eventually degenerating into the corpus albicans

81
Q

uterine phases during the luteal phase

A

secretory and premenstrual phases

82
Q

secretory phase

A

endometrium of the uterine wall continues to thicken

83
Q

premenstrual phase

A

endometrium of the uterine wall begins to breakdown

84
Q

hormones of day 1-5 of the follicular phase

A

FSH stimulates growth of follicles, causing granulosa cells to secrete estradiol

85
Q

function of estradiol in the follicular phase

A

inhibits GnRH and FSH, stimulates LH

86
Q

hormones in the menstrual phase

A

built up endometrium sloughs off

87
Q

menses

A

endometrium sloughing off

88
Q

hormones in day 6-14 of the follicular phase

A

developed follicle produces estradiol, causing an increase in GnRH, FSH, and LH

89
Q

hormones in the proliferative phase

A

high estradiol levels cause mitosis in the endometrium, estradiol stimulates the endometrium to produce receptors for progesterone

90
Q

hormones in ovulation

A

spike n LH causes follicles to burst and release oocyte into the uterine tube

91
Q

how long does ovulation take

A

3 minutes

92
Q

hormones in day 15-26 of the luteal phase

A

LH causes the burst follicle to become corpus luteum

93
Q

corpus luteum

A

produces lots of estradiol and progesterone to inhibit LH and FSH secretion

94
Q

how does low LH levels effect the corpus luteum

A

involution of the corpus luteum: shrinkage into scar tissue

95
Q

corpus albicans

A

shrinkage of corpus luteum into scar tissue

96
Q

hormones in the secretory phase

A

high levels of progesterone causes endometrium glands to develop and secrete fluid and glycogen to prep for a potential embryo

97
Q

hormones in days 27-28 of the luteal phase

A

blood flow of the corpus albicans drops without estradiol or progesterone production

98
Q

lack of hormone feedback during days 27-28 of the luteal phase allows

A

the pituitary gland to produce LH and FSH to start stimulate the follicles

99
Q

hormones in the premenstrual phase

A

lack of progesterone causes endometrium to degenerate

100
Q

ischemic phase

A

lack of blood flow to the endometrium begins its degeneration

101
Q

length of pregnancy

A

three trimesters, 266 days from conception to childbirth, 40 weeks from last menstrual period

102
Q

zygote

A

fertilized egg that forms from the fusion of gametes

103
Q

where does fertilization occur

A

in the ampulla of uterine tube

104
Q

the zygote divides to form an

A

embryo

105
Q

how long does an embryo develop before becoming a fetus

A

8 weeks

106
Q

placenta

A

organ that develops within the wall of the uterus to provide nutrition, gas, and waste exchange for the fetus

107
Q

function of the placentas

A

secretes hormones, connects to the fetal circulatory system through the umbilical cord

108
Q

human chorionic gonadotropin is secreted by

A

secreted by embryo and placenta

109
Q

what hormone is detected in a pregnancy test

A

HCG

110
Q

HCG function

A

to grow the corpus luteum and prevents its disintegration

111
Q

estradiol is secreted by

A

the corpus luteum and placenta

112
Q

estradiol functions

A

grows fetus, increases uterus, mammary ducts of the breast get bigger, pelvis widdens

113
Q

progesterone is secreted by

A

corpus luteum and placenta

114
Q

progesterone functions

A

prevents FSH and LH secretion, development of more ovarian follicles, promotes mammary gland secretion

115
Q

Human Chorionic Somatomammotropin

A

most secreted hormone in pregnancy, not understood, though to be a weak growth hormone
