Reproduction
the process by which an animal or plant gives rise to another of its kind
ectopic pregnancy
the time during which one or more offspring develops not in uterus
Gestation
the time from fertilization to birth.
Pregnancy duration
In humans : it is 266 days however it is called as 280 days. (37-42) weeks
Duration of pregnancy is 40weeks in human
pregnancy starts from first day of the last menstruation (it is before pregnancy)
True
In ovarium folicles are stimulated (app 14 days)
FSH
Dominant follicule ovulates
FSH
Ovarium Estradiol synthesis pathway differs
Progesteron
Estradiol proliferates the cells; and progesteron embosses the endometrium ready for implantation.
menstruation
If fertilisation does not occur: estradiol and progesterone levels drops and inner lining of endometrium and blood is discharged
If fertilisation occurs:
chorion cells secretes hCG (similar to LH) and ovaries continue to secrete progesterone (than placanta secretes progesterone itself: free from ovaries)
Zygote history
At first profilates then become morula then blastocyte which reaches uterine cavity first freely then implantation
embryo
first 8 weeks
fetus
After embryo till birth
infant
After birth the newborn is called as infant.
puerperal woman.
six weeks after childbirth
EMBRYO STAGE
(2- 8th week of gestation= 0-6 weeks after fertilisation )
Morula-> Blastocyte -> Gastrula
FETAL STAGE
( 8+ weeks of gestation= 6+ weeks after fertilisation )
• Almost all organs in future are present
Head body arms and legs can be Neural tube is present • Circulation started • Digestive tube present • Sex organs differ by 14-16 weeks.
Simple formula for length of fetus by gestational age:
8-20 weeks: square of (weeks/4)
20+ weeks : 5 x week/4
FETAL ORGANS & FUNCTION
EAR: HEARING
It is accepted that fetus can hear by 17th week
FETAL ORGANS & FUNCTION
EYE : SEEING.
It is known that newborns, including those born at very early weeks of gestation, notice light.
FETAL ORGANS & FUNCTION
ARMS %LEGS : MOVING.
The fetus can move extremities even by 9th weeks gestation.
FETAL ORGANS & FUNCTION
STOMACH INTESTINE : EATING DRINKING
Fetus can drink amniotic fluid :the water is absorbed and no liquid or solid is extracted as defecation in normal conditions.
FETAL ORGANS & FUNCTION
KIDNEYS
Urine formation starts by 12weeks gestation. And urine is exreacted to and exracted to amniotic fluid with micturition
