Q

Pulsatile GnRh therapy is used in

A

Hypogonadotropic hypogonadal anovulation to stimulate ovulation

These pts have intact pituitary and ovarian function but have problems concieving because of disordered hypothalamic GnRH secretion

Q

Clomiphene citrate is antiestrogen

Used to stimulate ovulation in

A

Pts with normal gondotropin and normal prolactin and thyroid pts
They simply have ovulatory failure

Clomiphene being antiestrogen blocks the hypothalamic feedback. Gnrh increases fsh and lh increases ovulation occurs

Q

Turners cause is

A

Meiotic non disjunctjon or mitotic non disjunction
Most commonly it is sperm lacking a sex chromosome— paternal loss of x or y chromosome

If mitotic non dysjunction —seen in zygote and leads to mosaicism
