Q

Effect of advanced emergency contraception on population

A

No study showed that giving advance EC reduced pregnancy rates on a population level.

However, women who were provided with advance EC took the pills an average of approximately 15 hours sooner than women without advance access.

Q

Which one of the following fetal ultrasound measurements gives the most accurate estimate of gestational age in the first trimester (up to 14 weeks)?

A

Crown-rump length is the distance from the top of the head to the bottom of the fetal spine.

It is most accurate as a measure of gestational age at 7-14 weeks.

In the second trimester, biparietal diameter and femur length are used.

During the third trimester, biparietal diameter, abdominal circumference, and femur length are best for estimating gestational age.

48
Causes of hyperprolactinemia
Hypothyroidism Prolactinemia Drug
49
Menstrual cycle
hypothalamus secretes GnRH, which stimulates the anterior pituitary to secrete FSH and LH. As the FSH level rises, it causes an ovarian follicle to mature and it to release estrogen which induces endometrial proliferation. A mid-cycle LH surge causes ovulation, and the follicle is transformed into the corpus luteum that secretes progesterone, which compacts and matures the endometrium. If pregnancy does not occur, the production of progesterone abruptly decreases, resulting in sloughing of the endometrium and a menstrual bleed.
50
Amenorrhea Menorrhagia Menometrorrhagia Metrorrhagia
AMENORRHEA: Absence of menstrual bleeding for 6 or more months when a woman is not pregnant. MENOMETRORRHAGIA: Heavy menstrual flow or prolonged duration of flow occurring at irregular intervals. MENORRHAGIA: Excessive menstrual flow, or prolonged duration of flow (>7 days), occurring at regular intervals. METRORRHAGIA: Bleeding occurring at irregular intervals.
51
Asherman syndrome
a scarring within the uterine cavity caused by trauma from uterine curettage. It can result in reduction in the size of the uterus as the walls become scarred to each other
52
Eval of dysfunctional uterine bleeding (Abnormal Bleeding Associated with Irregular Menstrual Cycles)
In the period after menarche, watchful waiting is usually indicated, with correction of the problem usually occurring within 1 to 2 years. In women younger than 35 years who are not at increased risk of endometrial cancer, treatment may be offered without workup beyond the history and physical examination.
53
When do you need further eval of dysfunctional uterine bleeding (Abnormal Bleeding Associated with Irregular Menstrual Cycles)?
- women with risk factors for endometrial cancer, - women younger than age 35 years with continued symptoms in spite of treatment, - postmenopausal women with uterine bleeding. Work up: Transvaginal pelvic ultrasound - endometrial biopsy Or can do.. Hysteroscopy (endoscopic evaluation of the uterine cavity) can directly visu- alize endometrial masses, polyps, or other abnormalities, and can lead to directed biopsy. It is often performed with dilation and curettage (D&C), which sharply removes almost the entire endometrial lining for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.
54
Risk factors for endometrial cancer include
``` anovulatory menstrual cycles, obesity, nulliparity, age greater than 35 years, use of tamoxifen or unopposed exogenous estrogen. ``` smoking is a negative risk factor for endometrial cancer.
55
What are the initial tests for the evaluation of menstrual irregularities?
a pregnancy test, TSH prolactin level
56
Pregestational diabetes vs gestational diabetes impact on baby
Pregestational diabetes - associated with greater fetal malformations due to the higher serum glucose levels during organogenesis (5-10 weeks gestational age) gestational diabetes - associated with hyperglycemia after 20 weeks gestation, when the fetal organs have already formed (macrosomia and polyhydramnios).
57

Ursodiol has been shown to be highly effective in controlling the pruritus and decreased liver function is safe for mother and fetus
60
Tx infertility in woman w/ PCOS
Metformin and clomiphene alone or in combination are first-line agents for ovulation induction. Clomiphene does not improve hirsutism, metformin does.
61
Tx hypothyroidism in pregnancy
often need to increase thyroid hormone dosage
62
Abnormal uterine bleeding in < 30 yo..workup
patient who is younger than 30 years of age will rarely be found to have a structural uterine defect. Once pregnancy, hematologic disease, and renal impairment are excluded, administration of intramuscular or oral progesterone will usually produce definitive flow and control the bleeding. No further evaluation should be necessary unless the bleeding recurs.
63
Placenta previa
clinically manifested as vaginal bleeding in the late second or third trimester, often after sexual intercourse. The bleeding is typically painless, unless labor or placental abruption occurs Placenta previa can happen early on but migrate - do not change delivery until after US @ 36 weeks NO bleeding --> repeat the US in the 3rd trimester DO NOT do digital cervical exam Bleeding --> steroids @ 24-34 wks In patients with a history of previous cesarean delivery who have a placenta previa at the site of the previous incision, a color-flow Doppler study should be performed to evaluate for a potential placenta accreta. --In such cases, MRI may be helpful to confirm the diagnosis.
64
Tx gestational diabetes
In addition to an appropriate diet and exercise regimen, pharmacologic therapy should be initiated in pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus whose fasting plasma glucose levels remain above 100 mg/dL despite diet and exercise. Should have - fasting plasma glucose levels below 95 mg/dL - 1-hour postprandial levels below 140 mg/dL r Insulin is best pharm tx - intermediate insulin + short acting insulin BID
65
Polycystic ovary syndrome usually results in what levels of LH vs FSH. How does this compare to hypothalamic amenorrhea?
PCOS - normal to slightly elevated LH levels and tonically low FSH levels. Hypothalamic amenorrhea - tonically low levels of LH and FSH.
66
Tx hirsuitism in premenopausal women
Antiandrogens such as spironolactone, along with oral contraceptives, are recommended for treatment of hirsutism in premenopausal women
67
What med has considerable efficacy in treating obstructive symptoms in men, but it unfortunately falsely depresses PSA levels.?
Finasteride
68
Type 2 DM preggers woman on oral DM meds - what do you do when she is now pregnant?
INSULIN! all oral agents cross the placenta (in contrast to insulin), leading to the potential for severe neonatal hypoglycemia. Need exquisitely tight glucose control to reduce fetal macrosomia and organ dysgenesis,
69
Down's screening in preggers
1st trimester: - Chorionic villus sampling is best 2nd trimester: - amniocentesis
70
The recommended time to screen for gestational diabetes is
24–28 weeks gestation. The patient may be given a 50-g oral glucose load followed by a glucose determination 1 hour later.
71
What is the highest rate of cancer for pap smear results that are dysplasia?
atypical glandular cells not otherwise specified (AGC-NOS)
72
Prepubertal labial adhesions
idiopathic Tx if there is enough labial fusion to interfere with urination Tx w/ topical estrogen
73
What is a red flag varicocele?
Usually on L Red flags: - on R - in a child < 10 years of age - may indicate an abdominal or retroperitoneal mass
74
gestational hypertension
HIGH BP w/o proteinuria after 20 weeks' gestation BP return to nl within 12 weeks of delivery.
75
Preeclampsia
- new onset of hypertension (systolic pressure >140 mm Hg or diastolic pressure >90 mm Hg) after 20 weeks' gestation - along with 300 mg protein in a 24-hour urine specimen.
76
(HELLP) syndrome
hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelets HELLP syndrome is a form of severe preeclampsia. Deliver ASAP If the patient has a favorable cervical examination, labor induction with oxytocin is appropriate. If the cervix is unfavorable, cesarean delivery should be considered to expedite delivery
77
Acute fatty liver of pregnancy
is another rare condition occurring in the third trimester and is usually associated with preeclampsia (50%–100% of cases). It presents with nausea and vomiting, anorexia, jaundice, abdominal pain, headache, and neurologic abnormalities. Transaminase levels are moderately elevated, PT and PTT are prolonged, and profound hypoglycemia and renal failure are usually present
78
``` Which one of the following agents used for tocolysis has the unique adverse effect of respiratory depression? (check one) A. Magnesium sulfate B. Ritodrine (Yutopar) C. Terbutaline (Brethine, Bricanyl) D. Indomethacin (Indocin) E. Nifedipine (Adalat, Procardia) ```
Magnesium sulfate infusions must be carefully monitored because respiratory depression is a potential lethal side effect. Reflexes are usually lost first.
79
Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy
is rare, occurring in 0.01% of pregnancies. It usually presents in the third trimester. Approximately 80% of patients present with pruritus alone, and another 20% with jaundice and pruritus. Laboratory results usually reveal normal or minimal elevation in transaminase levels, elevated bilirubin (usually <5 mg/dL), and occasional elevations in cholesterol and triglyceride levels. It is important to recognize and diagnose this entity, as it is associated with prematurity, fetal distress, and increased perinatal mortality.
80
Biochem marker to indicate preggers at high risk for impending preterm delivery
fetal fibronectin in cervical or vaginal secretions. In symptomatic women, this is most accurate in predicting spontaneous preterm delivery within 7–10 days.
81
``` Inevitable abortion vs completed abortion vs. threatened abortion vs. incomplete abortion vs. missed abortion ```
Inevitable abortion - bleeding - open os - no passage of products of conception (POCs). Completed abortion - bleeding - closed os - complete passage of POCs Threatened abortion - bleeding - closed os - no passage of POCs incomplete abortion - bleeding - open os - POCs in os or vaginal vault Missed abortion - no sx - no embryo or fetus on US
82
Diaphragm - when to replace? - when contraindicated?
A weight change of more than 15 lb, pregnancy, or pelvic surgery may necessitate refitting. Diaphragm use is contraindicated in women with a history of toxic shock syndrome. The diaphragm should remain in place for 6–24 hours after intercourse
83
2nd and 3rd stages of birth?
2nd stage = period from complete cervical dilation to complete delivery of the baby. 3rd stage = begins with the delivery of the baby and ends with the delivery of the placenta
84
Placenta abruptio
Abruption of the placenta is the most common cause of intrapartum fetal death but is associated not only with brisk vaginal bleeding, but also with uterine tenderness that may be marked.
85
Delayed or interrupted puberty is defined as
failure to - develop any secondary sex characteristics by age 13, - to have menarche by age 16, - to have menarche 5 or more years after the onset of pubertal development.
