16
Q

Fallopian Tube

A

-not attached to ovaries, instead has fimbriae to grab the egg and bring it into the tube
-site of fetilization

17
Q

ovaries

A

female gonads
-ovum development
-production of estrogen and progesterone

18
Q

vulva

A

mons pubis, clitoris, labia, vestibular bulbs/glands

19
Q

cervix

A

-the canal from the uturus to the vagina
-where menses leave the uterus
-where a baby comes out

20
Q

myometrium

A

-controlled by oxytocin
-thickest layer of uterus
-contracts during labor

21
Q

endometrium

A

-sheds during menses
-serves as the cite of implantation

22
Q

Ovarian cycle

A

follicular, ovulation, luteal

23
Q

menstrual cycle

A

menses, proliferative, secretory, premenestal

24
Q

follicular phase

A

days 1-14
oocyte is surrouned by a productive follice

25
Q

ovulation

A

day 14
oocyte leaves the follicel and the ovary and is exposed to the fallopian tubes

26
Q

luteal phase

A

days 14-28
left over follicle becomes corpus luteum
-continues to produce estrogen and progesterone to thicken endometrium in prep for pregnancy

27
Q

menses

A

days 1-5
endometrium is shedding(period)
hormones are low

28
Q

proliferative phase

A

days 7-14
endometrium is getting rebuilt
hormones are rising

29
Q

secretory

part of menstral cycle

A

14-28days
continual thickening of endometrium
hormones reach a high

30
Q

premestraul

A

days 26-28
hormones drop dramatically and causes vasoconstriction to the endometrium and causes it to shed
