Q

test done to know the stretchability of the cervical mucus

A

spinnbarkeit test

39
Q

inhibits the production of LH; increase tortousity and secretions of endometrium, inhibits uterine motility; facilitate the transport of fertilized to the fallopian tube; increase body temp after ovulation

A

progesterone

40
Q

body structures involved in menstruation

A

hypothalamus, anterior pituitary gland, ovary, uterus

41
Q

cns response of mens

A

hypothalamus signals the anterior pituitary gland to release LH and FSH

42
Q

ovarian response of mens

A

proliferative phase(development of follicle) and secretory phase (corpus luteum develops and degrades when no fertilization happens)

43
Q

endometrial phase of mens

A

menstrual phase, proliferative phase, secretory phase, ischemic phase

44
Q

begins with the end of menstruation where low levels of estrogen and progesterone will cause the hypothalamus to signal APG to GnRH to release FSH which stimulates the growth of follicle

A

follicular phase

45
Q

happens on the 15th day or at the Peak day where the increase level of estrogen causes the hypothalamus to trigger APG to release LH which causes the rupture of the graafian follicle to rupture and release ovum.

A

ovarian phase

46
Q

when 2 ova matures and both are fertilized it causes wwhat type of twin

A

fraternal twins

47
Q

when 1 fertilized ovum, separates into two zygotes. this type of twin is called

A

identical twins

48
Q

in this phase, Corpus luteum develops and continues to release progesterone to maintain the vascularity and the thickness of the endometrium. If no implantation happens, hypothalamus will signal APG to stop releasing LH and FSH which causes the corpus luteum to degrade

A

secretory/ luteal phase

49
Q

what happens when corpus luteum degrades

A

due to the degradation of the corpus luteum, production of progesterone is all being lessen which causes the endometrial lining to be fragile and shred off which causes menstruation

50
Q

branch of medicine that would take care of the woman as well as the inborn baby, deals with all aspects of pregnancy, prenatal to postnatal

A

obstetrician

51
Q

A

maternal and child care

53
Q

stages of pregnancy

A

fertilization, implantation, pre-placental, placental and fetal development

54
Q

the process in which sperms penetrate to the outer layer of the ovum

A

fertilization

55
Q

supports fertilization (4)

A

amniotic fluid, placenta, umbilical cord, fetal membranes

56
Q

when the blastocyst attached to the endometrium after fertilization

A

implantati0on

57
Q

collection of cells coded that undergone mitotic division that continuous to grow until it becomes a blastocyst

58
Q

3 process of implantation

A

apposition, adhesion, invasion

59
Q

when blastocyst reach or brushed through the endometrium

A

apposition

60
Q

when blastocyst attaches in the endometrium

61
Q

when blastocyst settles in into the soft folds of the endometrium

62
Q

3 decidua

A

decidua basalis, decidua capsularis, decidua vera

63
Q

portion of the decidua that later trophoblast estrablish communication with the maternal blood vessels which forms the maternal side of the placenta

A

decidua basalis

64
Q

it encapsulates the trophoblast layer

A

decidua capsularis

65
Q

embryonic membrane that is involved in implantation 4

A

amniotic fluid, yolk sac, chorionic villi, allantois

66
Q

serves as a protective mechanism of the fetus where it serves as a protection from pressure/ blow; it also regulates temperature, and aids with the development of the fetus

A

amniotic fluid

67
Q

normal amniotic fluid

A

800- 1200ml

68
Q

it is involved in the production of the placenta. surrounded by a double layer of trophoblast and produces hormones

A

chorionic villi

69
Q

hormones produce by the chorionic villi

A

Human Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone, progesterone, estrogen, human placental lactogen

70
Q

produces rbc and immature sex cells; becomes part of the umbilical cord

71
Q

contributes to the diff structures of the body such as the bladder and blood vessels; later on it deteriorate and becomes part of the umbilical cord

72
Q

A

umbilical cord

73
Q

white substance that wraps and protects the 2 arteries and 1 veins

A

wharton’s jelly

74
Q

veins of the umbilical cord

A

2 arteries 1 veins

75
Q

this acts as a fail-safe measure to ensure that corpus luteum of the ovary continues to produce progesterone and estrogen. This is important because if the CL fail and the progesterone decreases, the endometrial lining will slough and pregnancy will be lost

A

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin

76
Q

a hormone with both growth promoting and lactogenic properties; also serves the important role of regulating maternal glucose, proteins and fats levels

A

human placental lactogen/ human somatomammotropin

77
Q

these are toxic substances that can cause severe birth defects

A

teratogens

78
Q

critical time of brain development

79
Q

A

chorionic membrane

80
Q

second membrane lining the chorionic membrane that forms beneath the chorionic that forms the amniotic fluid

A

amniotic membrane

81
Q

A

hydramnios

82
Q
