  1. Follicular phase - 1st day of menstruation = 1st day of cycle
  2. Ovulatory phase
  3. Luteal phase
34
Q

phases of Endometrial cycle

A
  1. Proliferative Phase (1st half)
  2. Secretory Phase (last half)

Q

Trisomy results in

A

Kleinfelter syndrome = 47
Downsyndrome = 21

43
Q

function of corpus luteum

A

releases estrogen & progesterone to thicken endometrium & decrease FSH & LH to help fertilize egg

44
Q

pre-embryonic period

A

first 2 weeks after conception
entry of zygote into the uterus
