component of semen
normal levels 50-120 million sperm/mL

36
Q

Fructose

A

component of semen
energy source (ATP)

37
Q

Clotting and anti-coagulant factors help sperm to ?

A

stay in vagina and gain access to uterus egg

38
Q

Prostaglandins help sperm to ?

A

contract the myometrium to gain access to the uterus

39
Q

Spermine

A

base to neutralize vaginal pH to 7.4-7.6

40
Q

Does sperm have decreased movement at high or low pH?

41
Q

FSH and LH work together for ?

A

sperm production, maturation of primary and secondary sex organs, and secondary sex characteristics

42
Q

Ovulation pathway

A

ovary -> fallopian tube -> uterus

43
Q

Where do diaphragms and IUDs go? Where do pap smears occur?

A

Cervix of the uterus

44
Q

ovary

A

egg development and maturation

45
Q

Fallopian tube

A

receives egg; allows for transport of egg to uterus

46
Q

Uterus

A

thick muscular chamber that opens to the top of the vagina
acts as a storage depot for embryo/unfertilized egg
made up of fundus, body and cervix
lumen, myometrium, endometrium

47
Q

Myometrium responds to

A

oxytocin and prostaglandins

48
Q

endometrium responds to

A

estrogen and progesterone

49
Q

Oogenesis

A

synthesis of eggs in ovary

50
Q

Oogonia multiply until the 5th month of gestation and then

A

go into a state of rest until birth to make egg

51
Q

Only when what occurs do the ovum go through meiosis 2

A

fertilization

52
Q

During puberty FSH causes the primary oocyte to complete?

53
Q

1 oogonium makes how many mature eggs?

54
Q

What does FSH stimulate?

A

ovulation, estrogen production, breast maturation

55
Q

What does LH stimulate?

A

progesterone, breast maturation, and uterine lining maintenance

56
Q

Thelarche

A

breast development

57
Q

Pubarche

A

pubic and auxiliary hair development

58
Q

Menarche

A

1st menstrual cycle

59
Q

Barrier and spermicidal methods

A

prevent sperm from getting into/beyond the vagina

60
Q

diaphragm

A

rubber cap placed over cervix

61
Q

spermicides

A

foams that kill/prevent sperm motility

62
Q

hormonal methods

A

contain endogenous hormones to turn off production of FSH by negative feedback

decreases ovulation and egg development

63
Q

Mirena

A

IUD containing progesterone
inhibits ovulation , decreases FSH and changes the endometrial lining

64
Q

Paragard

A

IUD containing copper
changes endometrial lining
makes it unfavorable for ovum and sperm transport throughout the uterus

65
Q

Vasectomy

A

ligation of vas deferens
prevents spermatozoa from being in sperm

66
Q

Tubal ligation

A

tying off fallopian tubes
prevents egg transport to uterus

67
Q

Prevent blastocyst implantation into uterine wall using ?

A

a progesterone receptor antagonist

68
Q

rhythm method

A

timing of intercourse to reduce chances of pregnancy
1-13 least likely (egg in ovary)
14-24 most likely (egg in tube/uterus)

69

73
Q

failure rate of condom

74
Q

failure rate of diaphragm with spermicide

75
Q

failure rate of birth control pill or IUD

76
Q

failure rate of norplant

77
Q
