Pathophysiology lecture: female repro Part 1
Question | Answer |
---|---|
To make haploid or gametes or eggs , this happens in the | ovaries |
pathway: female | ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, vagina |
vaginitis | infection of the vagina; yeast infection |
Complication of vaginitis | cervicitis |
the most inferior part of the uterus | cervix |
cervicitis is | an infection of the cervix (inferior part of the uterus) |
PID is | when all the reproductive organs are infected |
Secondary disease to gonorrhea or chlamydia | PID |
Result of PID can be | scarring and sterility |
Infection of the fallopian tubes | salpingitis |
where veneral warts condylomas are seen | vulva |
The most common cause of condylomas is | HPV (human papilloma virus) |
innermost layer of the uterus, part of it is menstruated every cycle | endometrium |
If the endometrium is in any place other than the innermost lining of the uterus | endometriosis |
Endometriosis can be due to a | hormone imbalance |
cervical dysplasia | abnormal growth in the cervix |
flat cells such as in the cervice are what kind? | squamous epithelial |
irregular shaped or formed cells | dysplasia |
the test to determine if you have irregular formed or shaped cells | pap smear |
an early sign that the tissue is changing and could turn into cervical cancer | dysplasia |
comes from the anterior part of the pituitary gland which controlled by the hypothalamus | LH and FSH |
If LH and FSH levels are abnormal it could be due to | pituitary dysfunction or brain dysfunction caused by the hypothalamus |
Mentrual cycle starts on | Day one |
The ovulation pattern starts on | Day one |
On the first day of the menstual cycle the endometrial wall is | very thick |
By day four or five of the menstrual cycle the endometrial wall is | thin |
During the menstrual cycle you never lose this layer of the endo metrium | basal |
The layer develops from | the basal layer of the endometrium |
what layer is shed in the menstrual cycle? | basal layer (functional layer) |
The next level up from the endometrium shows the levels of | estrogen and progesterone. |
The order of increase of the two main hormones | first estrogen and then progesterone |
At the start of the next cycle these levels will drop | estrogen and progesterone |
The follicle can be considered the egg but technically the egg is the | gamete |
females are born with all of the follicles need for | fertilization |
one egg is picked out on day one to start | differentiating and maturing and it will become about ten times as large as it started.This takes about ten to fourteen days it varies. |
The peak in the LH (luteinizing hormone) triggers | ovulation |
The follicle cells remain in the ovaries and the egg is | pushed out of the ovary |
Corpus lutea means | yellow body |
The follicle is going to differentiate into the | corpus lutetium |
what provides the female with progesterone? | corpus lutea |
it will stay functional until about day 28 when your body realizes that you are not pregnant | corpus lutea |
If the egg is fertilized it will secrete | HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) |
A hypothalamic releasing hormone that causes the secretion of both follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone by the anterior pituitary gland | GnRH (gonadotropin-releasing hormone |
HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) keeps the corpus lutea functional for | 3 months |
You will have that level of progesterone for three months and by that time the ________is developed taking over the production of progesterone | placenta |
a white body called the _______ which is non functional | corpus albicans |
. If the egg is not fertilized, in _______days or so the corpus lutea will turn into a white body | fourteen |
. The follicle increases in size and differentiates because of _______hormone | Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) |
If you didn’t have ______ you wouldn’t get pregnant or ovulate because the egg wouldn’t differentiate or grow in size. | FSH |
. With out_______you would not release the egg from the ovary or have ovulation. | LH (luteinizing hormone) |
it is the peak in ______ that triggers the release of the egg in ovulation. | LH |
