Q

role of DHT

A

early - differentiation of make sex organs

17
Q

converts testosterone to DHT

A

5a-reductase (inhibited by finasteride)

18
Q

key enzyme in conversion of androgens to estrogen

A

aromatase

19
Q

makes estrogen

A

ovary, placenta, adipose

20
Q

strongest type of estrogen

A

estradiol

21
Q

function of estrogen

A

development of breast and genetalia, female fat distribution, growth of follicles, endomedtrial proliferation,

upregulation of estrogen, LH, progesterone receptors, feedback inhibition of FSH and LH, stumulation of prolactin sectretion

22
Q

hormone indicator of fetal well-being

A

huge increase in estriol

23
Q

source of progesterone

A

corpus luteum, placenta, adrenal cortex, testes

24
Q

function of progesterone

A

stimulation of endometreial glandular secretions and spiral arery development, maintainince of pregnancy, production of cervical mucus plug, inhibition of LH and FSH, uterine smooth muscle relaxation

25
Q

hormone level increase that shows ovulation

A

progesterone (tempuratre spike is indicator)

26
Q

day of cycle with highest LH, FSH and estrogen

A

day 14

27
Q

day of highest progesterone, and 2ndary estrogen surge

A

day 20ish

28
Q

causes ovulation

A

estrogen surge stimulates LH releaem causing ovulation

29
Q

oocyte phase arested until ovulation

A

meosis I/prophase I (2N, 4C)

30
Q

oocyte phase arested until fertilization

A

metaphase II

31
Q

function of HCG

A

maintains the corpus luteum, for 1st trimester

32
Q

hormonal changes in menopause

A

lowered estrogen, much higher FSH, higher LH and GnRH
