Approx 10% of females suffer from this
1. Ovarian disease
2. Obstruction of the uterine tubes (STI scarring)

Q

Intracytoplasmic sperm Injection (ICSI)

A
  • Infertility due to imparments in sperm motility or failure of spermatids into spermatozoa
  • Oocyte is fertilized by in vitro suction a sperm and injecting into the oocyte’s cytoplasm

Q

What is the function of the placenta?

A
  • Protetive barrier against microorganisms
  • Allows O2 and nutrients to disfuse into fetal blood without coming in contact
  • It stores nutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, calcium, iron)

  • It stores nutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, calcium, iron)
22

23
Q

What are the four main hormones of pregnancy?

A
  1. hCG
  2. Relaxin
  3. Human chorionic somatomammotropin (hCS)
  4. Corticotropin-releasing hormone
24
Q

What does hCG do during pregnancy?

(3)

A

Releases progesterone and Estrogens
1. Maintain endometrium of uterus
2. Help prepare mammary glands for lactation
3. Prepare mother’s body for birth

25
Q

What does Relaxin do during pregnancy?

(2)

A
  1. Increases flexibility of pubic symphysis
  2. Helps dilate uterine cervix during labor
26
Q

What does Human Chorionic Somatomammotropin (hCS) do during pregnancy?

(3)

A
  1. Helps prepare mammary glands for lactation
  2. Enhances growth by increasing protein synthesis
  3. Decreases glucose use and increases fatty acid use for ATP production
27
Q

What does Corticotropin-releasing hormone do during pregnancy?

(2)

A
  1. Establishes timing of birth
  2. Increasing secretion of cortisol
28
Q

Maternal Cardiovascular changes in pregnancy

(6)

A
  1. Stroke volume increases 30%
  2. Heart rate increases 10-15%
  3. Cardiac output increases 20-30%
  4. Blood Volume increases 30-50%
  5. IVC compressions reduces venous return and increases pedal edema
  6. Renal artery compression may cause renal HTN
29
Q

Maternal Respiratory System changes in pregnancy

(6)

A
  1. Tidal Volume-increases 30-40%
  2. Expiratory reserve volume-decreases 40%
  3. Functional residual capacity-decreases 25%
  4. Minute ventilation-increases 40%
  5. Bronchial tree airway resistance-decreases 30-40%
  6. Total O2 consumption-increases 20%
30
Q

Maternal Digestive system changes in pregnancy

(2)

A
  1. Decreased GI motility
  2. Increased appetite
31
Q

Maternal urinary System changes during pregnancy

(5)

A
  1. Increased frequency and urgency of urination
  2. Stress incontinence
  3. Renal plasma flow increased 35%
  4. Glomerular filtration increased 40%
  5. Increased renal filtration capacity: to eliminate extra wastes made by fetus
32
Q

What is the increased pigmentation around the eyes and cheekbones in a masklike pattern called?

A

Chloasma

33
Q

Increased pigmentation in the areolae of the breasts and in the linea alba of the lower abdomen?

A

Linea nigra

34
Q

What are striae?

A

Stretch marks over the abdomen as the fetus enlarges
