50
Q

Early effects of DHT vs late effects

A

Differentiation of penis, scrotum, and prostate.

Prostate growth, balding, and sebaceous gland activity

51
Q

Functions of estrogen

A

Secondary sex characteristics

Growth of follicle and endometrium

Decrease FSH and LH

Increase prolactin in the body and decreases prolactin in the breast

52

Hormone that is an indicator of fetal well-being

53

A

Surrounded by flat follicular cells

Surrounded by cuboidal follicular cells

Layers of follicular cells with antrum

Extends through cortex and bulges out

57

Coronary artery disease
62
Q

Maternal diabetes effect on fetus?

A

Insulin does not cross placenta. Glucose crosses placenta causes hyperplasia of islet cells. Leads to transient hyperglycemia of newborn.
