OB/Gyn Flashcards
Postmenopausal bleeding next step in diagnosis
TVUS —> if endometrium >4mm do endometrial bx
Sertoli-Leydig tumor
sex chord stromal cell tumor, secretes testosterone; p/w rapid-onset virilization and signs of estrogen deficiency
Granulosa cell tumor
sex chord stromal cell tumor that secretes estrogen, presents as complex adnexal mass
Primary dysmenorrhea caused by
increased endometrial prostaglandin production
Primary ovarian insufficiency dx
amenorrhea <40 yrs, hypoestrogeneic sx, elevated FSH, low estrogen, no withdrawal bleeding with progesterone challenge
caused by ovarian follicle depletion
Primary ovarian insufficiency is associated with
Turner syndrome, Fragile X carrier, autoimmune oopheritis, anticancer drugs or pelvic radiation, galactosemia
Lichen sclerosis increases risk for
vulvar cancer; chronic inflammation is risk factor for malignant transformation
Late decelerations
signify uteroplacental insufficiency –> can lead to fetal hypoxia and acidemia
can be result of uterine tachysystole- less time for recovery = decreased blood flow; tx is d/c uterotonic agents
5-a-reductase deficiency
46XY genotype, internal male genitalia, external female genitalia (blind vagina), impaired testosterone–>DHT conversion, normal male testosterone and estrogen levels
5-a-reductase deficiency presentation
phenotypically female with virilization beginning w/ puberty, male pattern hair and acne, increased muscle mass, clitoromegaly, no breast development, bilat adnexal masses = undescended testes
Gestational hypertension features
New onset hypertension at >20 wks gestation, NO proteinuria
Effects of elevated prolactin during breastfeeding
Suppresses GnRH (hypothal.) –> decreased FSH and LH (pituitary) –> decreased ovarian estrogen production
hypoestrogeneic sx: amenorrhea, hot flashes, vulvovaginal atrophy and dryness
First stage of labor- latent phase
cervical dilation from 0-6 cm, no set rate of change
First stage of labor- active phase
cervical dilates rapidly from 6-10 cm, normal progression of >1 cm/2 hrs
Management of prolonged active phase of labor (cervical change <1cm/2hrs)
Place IUPC to measure contraction strength (should be >200 MVU), augment with oxytocin if <200 MVU
