Physiology Review III Flashcards
morning sickness
hCG
gestational hyperthyroidism
hCG binds TSH receptors
other hCG effects
leydig - testosterone
fetal adrenal cortex
progesterone synthesis
CYP11A1, 3B HSD
progesterone
decreased uterine contractions
- increased secretions
- increased fat deposition
estrogen
necessary for parturition
E:P ration
decreased progesterone - allows PRL to act
hPL/hCS
lipolytic
increased glucose for fetus
placental limitations
no cholesterol
no enzymes for estrogen
PRL
estrogen stimulates release
lactotroph hypertrophy
sheehans syndrome
lactotroph hypertrophy
ADH changes
lower threshold
progesterone effect
thyroid changes
total raises
free same
bc of TGB
11-beta DH type 2
inactivates cortisol
increased aldosterone?
estrogen
-increased angiotensinogen and renin
but progesterone blunts action
increased plasma volume
incrased NaCl retention - aldosterone
increased water retention - ADH
stroke volume
decreased
IVC compression
decreased VR, EDV, SV
CO distribution
uterus, renal, skin, heart, breasts
same - brain, gut, skeleton
TPR
decreased
low R circuit
vasodilation
low viscosity
edema
increased V pressure in legs
decreased capillary osmotic P (less proteins)
alveolar ventilation
increased
PCO2
decreased
respiratory alkalosis
