offer OGTT asap after booking
and at 24-28 weeks
antiepileptics in pregnancy
usually all safe except barbituates
phenytoin in pregnancy
associated w cleft palate
if taking in preg = take vit K last month of pregnancy to prevent clotting disorders in newborn

mx of pprom
admission
regular observation to see chorioamnionitis

corticosteriods (to reduce risk of resp distress)
criteria for surgical management of ectopic
which one
Size >35mm
ruptured or not
pain
fetal heartbeat
hCG >5000
(fine if theres another intrauterine preg)
salpingectomy 1st line if no other RF for infertility
otherwise salpingotomy
medical management criteriaof ectopic
n what is it
<35mm
unruptured
no signifcant pain
no heartbeat

(not suitable if another intrauterine preg)
Only done if pt willing to attend follow up
tx herpes simples genital ulcers tx

twin pregnancy
cephalopelvic disproportion
abnormal presentations e.g. Breech, transverse lie
oestrogen secreted
theca granulosa cells in ovaries
progesterone produced by
corpus luteum
HRT w uterus
oestrogen and progesterone
HRT no uterus
oestrogen only
combined hrt risk

oestrogen only hrt risk
endometrial cancer (thats why do not give if have uterus)
risk of vte w hrt
increased when prog as well

rotterdam criteria PCOS
2 of 3
- Oligoovulation/anovulation – irregular, absent periods
- Hyperandrogenism – hirsutism, acne
- Polycystic ovaries on USS
pcos path
Insulin resistance – insulin = higher levels of androgens and suppresses SHBG
which suppresses androgens usually
pcos blood findings
Raised LH, raised LH:FSH ratio, raised testosterone
ovarian cysts
Functional cysts –
Corpus luteum cysts –
Dermoid cysts/germ cell tumours –
harmless, disappear
often early pregnancy
teratomas, may contain skin/teeth/hair/bone
ashermans syndrome
path
causes
sx
adhesions connecting areas of uterus that wouldnt usually be connected
because of damage to it
ie D&C, uterine surgery, endometritis
painful lighter periods (2ndry amen)
cervical ectropian path
Columnar epithelium of endocervix extended out to ectocervix (stratified
squamous epithelium)
bc elevated oestrogen
= exposed to erosion
cervical ectropian sx
post coital bleeding
vaginal discharge
pelvic organ prolapse
Uterine prolapse –
Vault prolapse –
uterus into vagina
hysterectomy – vault into vagina
pelvic organ prolapse
Rectocele –
Cystocele –
posterior vaginal wall defect – rectum prolapses into vagina –
constipation, urinary retention, lump
anterior vaginal wall defect – bladder into vagina
organ prolapse grading
Grading
- 1 = lowest part >1cm above introitus
- 2 = lowest part within 1cm of introitus
- 3 = lowest part >1cm below introitus
- 4 = full descent
endometrioma
chocolate cysts in endometriosis
if rutpure
= sudden intense pain
USS = free fluid in pelvis
oestrogen only HRT and breast cancer ?
doesnt increase risk if used for less than 10 years
