GYN Flashcards
(212 cards)
1
Q
what days of cycle are optimal for fertilization
A
day 11-15
2
Q
name the two phases (or 3)
A
follicular (proliferative)
luteal (secretory)
Follicular + menstruation
ovulation
luteal
3
Q
Follicular phase
- days
- predominant hormone
A
day 1 (menstruation) to day 14 (ovulation) -new follicle is growing
HORMONES:
*GnRH–>FSH + LH–>follicle grows–>secreting estorgen–>provides (-) feedback to AP–>but then estrogen gets to a point where its very high and creates (+) feedback on FSH and LH—SURGE–. SURGE OF LH=OVULATION
4
Q
what causes menstruation
A
progesterone withdrawal
5
Q
what triggers ovulation
A
on day 11-14 a sugrge in LH occurs once dominant follicle is selected
6
Q
corpus luteum
A
- progesterone production
- —-> neg feedback on FSH + LH
7
Q
Luteal PHase
-hormone and its role
A
PROGESTERONE
- enhances endometrial lining to prepare it for implantation
- once there is no implantation– corpus luteum degenerates into corpus albicans —-> steep decr in estrogen + Progesterone
***this drop of hormones leads to menstruation and star of new cycle
8
Q
MCC of secondary amenorrhea
A
pregnancy
ALWAYS DO PT IN EVERY PATIENT
9
Q
primary vs secondary amenhorrhea
A
PRIMARY
- failure of menses to occur by age 15 (or 16) in presence of normal growth and secondary sexual characteristics
- ->start evaluation at age 13 if no menses + absence of secondary charactersistics
SECONDARY
*absence of menses for 3 MO in a woman with previous menses
oR
6 months in a woman with hx of irreg cycles
10
Q
causes of primary amenorrhea
A
Turners syndrome—- XO
hypothalamic-pituitary insufficiency 46 XX
*low FSH low LH
Androgen insensitivity: 46 XY
High testosterone… breast development only
Imperforate hymen: 46, XX, diagnosed on PE
anorexia
mullerian agensis– no uterus but has secondary sex charactersitcs
11
Q
Turners syndrome
A
XO
webbed neck, broad chest, high FSH
12
Q
causes of secnoadry amenhorrhea
-what hormones to always check
A
pregnancy
hypothyroid
weight changes
prolactinoma
**ALWAYS CHECK BHCG, TSH and Prolactin
***progesterone challenege test–> medroxyprogesterone 5-10 mg PO once a day or another progesterone for 7-10 days—— if bleeding occurs=anouvulatory cycles
13
Q
MCC of primary amenorrhea
A
GONADAL DYSGENSIS
- Turner syndrome– 45XO
- Mullerian dysgenesis– 46XX
- Androgen Insensitivity—46XY
14
Q

A

15
Q
define DUB
A

**diagnosis of exlcusion
16
Q
define Polymenorrhea
A
menses that occur more frequently (<21 days apart menses)
17
Q
define hemorrhagic or hypermenorrhea
A
menses that involve more blood loss >7 days or >80 mL
18
Q

A
prolonged/heavy bleeding
>7 days or >80 ml at regular intervals
19
Q

A
uterine bleeding that occurs frequently and irreguarly b/w cycles
20
Q

21
Q
oligomenorrhea
A
long intervals of >35 days
22
Q
MCC of AUB/DUB
A
chronic anovulation
**corpus luteum does not form–>so noprogesterone formed—>unoppposed estrogen–>endometrial overgrowth–>irregular, unprediactable shedding
23
Q
GS for diagnosis of AUB
A
uterine D/C
24
Q
