Q

 This leads to arterial dilation and venous constriction in the genital area;the blood supply in this area increases resulting in vasocongestion and increase muscular tension

25
 increased size of clitoris  increased mucus in the vagina  vagina widens its diameter and length  nipples become erect  increased cardiac and respiratory rate
Excitement: VASOCONGESTION IN WOMEN
26
 erection of the penis and nipples  there is scrotal thickening and testicle elevation  increased cardiac and respiratory rate
Excitement: VASOCONGESTION IN MEN
27
reached just before the orgasm
Plateau:
28
In men, vasocongestion leads in full distention of the penis
Plateau:
29
In women, the clitoris is drawn forward and retracts under the clitoral prepuce; lower part of female vagina becomes congested; there is increased nipple engorgement
Plateau:
30
occurs when stimulation proceeds through the plateau stage to a point at which the body suddenly discharges accumulated sexual tension
Orgasm:
31
vigorous contraction of muscles in the pelvic area dissipates blood and fluid from the area of congestion
Orgasm:
32
The average number of contractions is from 8-15 at intervals of one in every 0.8 sec
Orgasm in women:
33
muscle contraction surrounding the seminal vessels and prostate project semen into the proximal urethra These contractions are followed by 3-7 propulsive ejaculatory contractions which force semen into the penis
Orgasm in men:
34
the period during which the external and internal organs return to an unaroused state – 30 mins
Resolution:
35
More than 50% of the erection is lost
Resolution:
36
General muscle relaxation occurs, in men
Resolution:
37
The inner 1/3 of the vagina gradually shrink and color returns to pre excitement phase
Resolution:
38
HR and RR returns to normal
Resolution:
39
for the MALE, a REFRACTORY PERIOD occurs; further orgasm is impossible.
Resolution:
40
For the FEMALE, there is MULTIPLE ORGASM.
Resolution:
41
 Teenage sex  Premarital sex  STD  HIV/AIDS  Sexual harassment  Sexual abuse
SEXUALITY ISSUES & CONCERNS
42
periodic uterine bleeding in response to cyclic hormonal changes
MENSTRUAL CYCLE
43
process that allows for conception & implantation of a new life
MENSTRUAL CYCLE
44
onset / Beginning (Menarche)
12 or 13 y/o, average 9-17
45
Interval between cycles
28 days, 23-35 days
46
Duration
2-7 days, 1-9 days
47
Amount
average 30-80ml

Color
dark red, combination of blood, mucus, & endometrial cell
49

HAOU
Four body structures involved in the menstrual cycle
52
secretes / release GnRH
HYPOTHALAMUS
53
releases: FSH & LH
ANTERIOR PITUITARY GLAND
54
responsible for ovulation releases mature egg cell from ovary
LH
55
maturation of ovum
FSH
56
releases: ESTROGEN & PROGESTERONE
OVARIES
57
secondary sex characteristics
ESTROGEN
58
thickens endometrium
PROGESTERONE
59
flow of blood
UTERUS
60
Proliferative Secretory Ischemic Menses
PHASES OF MENSTRUAL CYCLE (UTERUS):
61
produces ESTROGEN in the follicular fluid
Proliferative
62
endometrium proliferates up to 8 folds termed as “estrogenic, follicular, postmenstrual”
Proliferative
63
During Proliferative phase, endometrium proliferates up to 8 folds termed as
estrogenic, follicular, postmenstrual
64
formation of PROGESTERONE in the corpus luteum
Secretory
65
During Secretory phase, endometrium corkscrew/ twisted termed as
progestational, luteal, premenstrual
66
decreased estrogen & progesterone
Ischemic
67
products discharged during menstrual flow
Menses
68
blood from the ruptured capillaries mucin from the glands fragments of endometrial tissue microscopic, atrophied & unfertilized ovum
products discharged during menstrual flow
69
This stimulates hypothalamus to signal Anterior Pituitary Gland
Low levels of Estrogen
70
this releases GnRH
Hypothalamus
71
stimulates release of FSRH and LHRH
GnRH
72
These stimulate APG to release FSH and LH
FSRH and LHRH
73
This stimulate ovary to release Estrogen
FSH
74
Converts Follicles of Ovary to Graafian Follicle
Estrogen
75
stimulates thickening of myo/endometrium in the UTERUS
PROGESTERONE
76
This stimulate ovary to release Progesterone
LH
77
Converts Graafian Follicle to Corpus Luteum
Progesterone
78
Stimulates Uterus to increase vascularity on endometrium
Progesterone
79
Stimulates increase in O2,H2O, Glucose, AA
Progesterone
80
Increase Vascularity in Uterus causes
Build of temporary capillaries
81
CL degenerates in
8-10 days / 2 weeks
82
CL degeneration causes decrease in
Estrogen and Progesterone
83
decrease in Estrogen and Progesterone causes
increase contraction in uterus
84
increase contraction in uterus causes the temporary capillaries to
breakdown, therefore the menstrual discharge
85
• Exercise • Sexual Relations • Activities of Daily Life • Pain relief • Rest • Nutrition
