  • 10cm (4 in)
  • Infundibulum
  • Fimbrae
  • Contain Cilia to create wave-like
    movements that propel the oocy
A

uterine tubes

31
Q
  • Hollow organ
  • Suspended by uterosacral
    ligaments and round ligaments
    -body
  • fundus
    -cervix
A

uterus

32
Q

Layers of Uterine Wall

A

Endometrium
Myometrium
Perimetrium

33
Q
  • Tube-Like
  • 10cm (4 in)
  • Extends from the Cervix to the
    body exterior
  • Passageway of menstrual flow and
    the delivery of the infant
A

vagina

34
Q

thin fold of mucosa at the
distal end of the vagina

A

hymen

35
Q

female reproductive PHYSIOLOGY

A

oogenesis and hormone production

36
Q
  • Starts at the developing female fetus
  • Maturation of oocytes happens at puberty
  • Begins with oogonia -> secondary
    oocyte
A

oogenesis

37
Q
  • Stimulates the development of female
    reproductive structures and female
    secondary sexual characteristics
  • Aids in maintaining pregnancy and
    prepares breasts for lactation
A

Hormone production

38
Q

Cyclic changes in the ________ in response to changing levels of hormones in the blood

A

endometrium

39
Q

Cyclic production of estrogen and progesterone regulated by the anterior pituitary gonadotropic
hormones, FSH and LH.

A

true

40
Q

Uterine cycle AKA _____

A

menstrual cycle

41
Q

UTERINE CYCLE or menstrual cycle is Approx 28 days

A

true

42
Q

Shedding off (sloughing off) of endometrial
lining from uterine wall
- Detached tissues and blood pass through
vagina (menstrual flow or “period”)
- Day 5: Production of more estrogens in
ovaries

A

Menstrual Phase (Days 1-5)

43
Q
  • Regeneration of endometrium; formation of
    glands and increase in blood supply.
  • Ovulation occurs in the ovary at the end of
    this stage
A

Proliferative Phase (Days 6-14)

44
Q
  • Further increase in blood supply of
    endometrium
  • Secretion of nutrients from the endometrial
    glands (sustains embryo, if present) until
    implantation
  • If fertilization occurs, embryo secretes LH-like
    hormone human chorionic gonadotropin
    (hCG)to further stimulate corpus luteum
A

Secretory Phase (Days 15-28)

45
Q

If Fertilization
DOES NOT occur:
- Degeneration of the corpus
luteum towards the end of
Secretory Phase
- Decrease of LH

A

true

46
Q
  • The time period between the fertilization of an oocyte until birth
A

manifestation

57
Q
  • Inability or reduced ability to produce
    offspring.
  • Commonly caused by low sperm count
    (less than 20 million sperm cells/ml)
  • May be caused by low levels of hormones
    (Testosterone, FSH, LH)
A

Male Infertility
