growth and correct placental function

promoting maternal breast development

increases endometrial progesterone recepors

349
Q

describe the HPG axis

A
350
Q

describe the physiology of ovulation

A

fsh causes follicular development

dominant follicle developms

causes and increase in LH and oestrogen

FSH has -ve feedback on LH by anterior pituitary gland until theres LH surge

causing ovulation

351
Q

describe the effecst of FSH+LH on follicular cells

A

LH acts on thecal cells

FSH acts on granulosa cells

theca cells produce testosterone which granulosa cells change to oestrogen

352
Q

describe the menstrual cycle

A

ant. pituitary releases FSH and LH

FSH rises quickly and follicles start developing

there is a slow rise in oestrogen (which LH drives) due to the negative feedback of FSH on LH until theres LH surge

ovulation occurs

Once follic;e bursts ut becomes corpus leuteum which produces progesterine which has -ve affect on pituitary

353
Q

A

glycoproteins :

fsh

lh

hcg

354
Q

what is a female steriod

A

oestrogen

355
Q

what do thecal cells do

A

synthesis progesterone and testosterone from cholesterol

356
Q

what is the role of granulosa cells

A

to turn the testosterone made bythecal cells to oestrogen

357
Q

how does implantation occur

A

progesterone produced from corpus leuteum allows for implantation

fetal blastocysys produce hCG

prevents luteal death so progesterone continues

At day 20-24 endothelium is sticky and there is implantation into the stroma which then proliferates over the blastocyst

358
Q

what is the purpose of the decidua

A

permits invasion of blastocyst and implantation causing uterine stromal enlargement and proliferation of uterine natural killer cells

359

how do yo Ix the effects of cardiac disease in pregnancy

A

maternal echo

maternal ECG

fetal serial growth scans

fetal doppler

BP monitoring

408

Mx of cardiac disease in pregnancy

A

LMWH (anticoagulants)

labetalol (aortic stenosis + miral stenosis + mitral prolapse)

Abx to prevent endocarditis

409

What is the management of Endocarditis in pregnancy

A

in low risk pregnancies:

  • amoxicillin PO 1hr before labour and then 6hrly during labour

in standard risk pregnancies

large haemodynamic changesin labour a

411

A

increased risk of PPH

412
Q

what are fetal implications of hypothyroidism in pregnancy

A

miscarrige

neurodevelopmental inpairement and developmental delay

413
Q

how would you manage hypothyroidism in pregnancy

A

thyroxine

iodine suppliments

414
Q

when is thyroid control most important in pregnacy

A

1st trimester

415
Q

why is hypothyroidism uncommon in pregnancy

A

autoimmune state (main cause = graves) it usually resolves in pregnancy

416
Q

what are maternal implications of hyperthyroidsim in pregnancy

A

Thyrotoxicosis

cardiac failure (due to thyrotoxicosis)

pre eclampsia

417
Q

what are fetal implications of hyperthyroidsim in pregnancy

A

still born

IUGR

prem baby

418
Q

why would thyrotoxicosis occur

A

in first trimester baby doesnt have a thyroid

means that Thyroid stimulating antibodies cross the placenta and to mums thyroid to help support baby

this increases thyroid dimand and can cause thyrotoxicosis (thyroid storm)

419
Q

how would you manage hyperthyroidism in pregnancy

A

propylthiouracil

  • blocks release of thyroxine and convestion of T4>T3 in periferies

check TSG every 4-6 weeks

fetal tachycarda monitoring after 32 weeks (>/= 160bpm shows fetal thyroid dysfunction)

420
Q

what is contraindicated in the managment of hyperthyroidism in pregnancy

A

carbimazole = fetal abnormalities

radioactive iodine

Q
A
