62
Q

What does FSH do in males and where?

A

63
Q

64
Q

What does inhibin do in females?

A

stops FSH so pregnancy can progress

65
Q

male infertility (why)

A

genetics, trauma, low sperm count, varicocele, increased temp, erectile dysfunction

66
Q

A

14th (ovulation)

67
Q

68
Q

male telophase II

A

70
Q

71
Q

What does GnRH do in females?

A

releases FSH

72
Q

A

second polar body

73
Q

inhibin

A

74
Q

ovulation

A

release of egg, ruptures graafian follicle (ovulatory phase)

75
Q

Endometriosis

A

Growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterus

76
Q

What does inhibin do in males?

A

stops FSH (spermatogenesis) when the ampulla is full

77
Q

Variococeal

A

Varicose vein in testes causes infertility by raising temperature (killing sperm)

78
Q

Jacobs Syndrome

A

XYY, VERY aggressive

79
Q

preovulatory phase

A

days 6-13, endometrium is repaired, meiosis I is complete, FSH causes vesicles to gather and form antrum (large fluid vesicle), antrum matures into the graafian follicle, oocyte granulosa still make estrogen (stops FSH), egg is pushed to one side and surrounded by corona radiata (condensed granulosa cells), GnRH causes LH surge

80
Q

corona radiata

A

condensed granulosa cells (preovulatory phase)

81
Q

theca cells

A

fluid capsule, makes progesterone (menstrual phase)

82
Q

corpus luteum

A

repaired corpus hemorrhagicum, makes estrogen & progesterone (support for first 14 days) (post ovulatory phase)

83
Q

primary oocyte

A

prophase I, initial egg (crossing over & synapsis)

84
Q

when is the morula formed?

A

3rd day after fertilization

85
Q

inhibin

A

made by granulosa cells of corpus luteum, inhibits FSH production

86
Q

secondary oocyte

A

telophase I, generates polar body, becomes egg, completes this after capacitation/fertilization

87
Q

oogonium

A

female germ cell

88
Q

post ovulatory luteal phase

A

days 15-28, LH causes corpus hemorrhagicum repair which becomes the corpus luteum, corpus luteum granulosa make estrogen, theca cells make progesterone. No pregnancy? corpus luteum dies and becomes the corpus albicans, corpus albicans theca cells and granulosa die, this drops estrogen & progesterone levels, fall releases GnRH and the cycle repeats

pregnancy? progesterone from theca cells thickens endometrial layer of uterus (proliferative state), proliferative state turns into secretory state with many tunnels for placenta to attach into, theca cells (corpus luteum) keep making progesterone (LH helps first 14 days then HCG the rest of the way)

89
Q

What does GnRH do in males?

A

releases LH/FSH

90
Q

relaxin

A

made by granulosa cells after it becomes the corpus luteum, relaxes uterus

91
Q

zona pellucida

A

fluid layer initially seen in primary follicles, immediately closes after fertilization (menstrual phase)

92
Q

ovulation

A

day 14, LH causes egg (secondary oocyte) to rupture Graafian follicle, remaining damaged follicle is called the corpus hemorrhagicum

93
Q

morula

A

solid mass at day 3

94
Q

capacitation

A

change sperm cells undergo in female, release ALL acrosomes at once

95
Q

simple menstruation explanation (actual period part)

A

estrogen & progesterone levels fall, arteries vasoconstrict, blood is cut off, tissue becomes ischemic, elimination

96

103
Q

menstrual phase

A

days 1-5, menses is from estrogen & progesterone level drops which causes ischemia of endometrium. Drop also triggers GnRH to release FSH. FSH turns some primordial follicles into primary follicles. Zona pellucida forms (fluid layer in primary follicle). Primary follicles turns into secondary follicle because of estrogen. Theca (fluid capsule) forms around secondary follicle.
