benign cysts you usually just leave it and no BX so you can get a US cause they are fluid filled
28

Culdocentesis own notes ?
Pouch of Douglas - rectouterine pouch and this collects fluid in the area - infection to get a culture and for relief of sxs. and for a rupture ectopic and there is blood in there
2000 beta HCG - and they do a US and they see nothing and the woman has pain and is tachy - then they do a US and see ultrasound and see fluid here they can do this procedure and maybe see blood there

109
Schiller Test: __________ constitutes a positive Schiller test.

**abnormal cells stay llgiith , no matter what you put on them **
110
Hormones own notes
they all start as sterols
androgen into estrogens? what enzyme ?
men who do steroid get breast cause the estrodiol conversion ( most potent and most common)
T and converted to estradiol ( too commons was to covert it and that is why it is most common)
some tumors feed on estrogen so give a aromatase inhibitor to patient with breast CA to stop the production of E to starve the tumor
111
E2 (Estradiol) own notes ?
most potent and prevalent
give to patients with post menopausal issues
osteoporosis
hot flashes
vaginal atrophy - it thickens walls
E2 increase right before the spike of LH
FSH stimulate the follicle and the ovary starts to make the follicle and secret the follicle within the ovary and the E2 during this cycle is starting to rise and when E2 spikes it causes the LH to spike which is the major hormone for the development of the corpus leuteum and cause ovulation. corpus hemorrhagiousum.
the eggs is then releases and trasv=fered to the uterus and the CH turing to the CL and CL releases hormones P and E that are responsible for thickening endmetrium(P) if there is no implantation the P drops off and the endometrium drops off and this is menstariton
E2 linked to reduction binge eating in mood , depression, bone density, atherosclerotic lesions ( only thing that it is linked to that is unhealthy is breast CA)
112
LGSIL & HGSIL ?
low or high grade squamous intrahepathelail leasion - there is dysplasia and precursor to CA there ( comes before a formal dx. of cervial CA)
* *LGSIL or HGSIL then they usually run a reflex test after
* *
113
FSH/ LH acts on the ?
ovaries or testes
114
Reflex HPV Testing: virus pathology ?
