Problems within these three phases include _ & _

fertility issues & dyspareunia

T or F: SEXUAL NEUROPHYSIOLOGY Precedes the activation of the ascending pathway

False (descending)

T or F: Both pathways act synergistically/simultaneously, but sometimes in isolation from each other to determine genital response

True

T or F: SEXUAL NEUROPHYSIOLOGY involves the Cerebrum, brainstem and spinal tracts, ANS, thoracolumbar, sacral, somatic nerves

True

T or F: SEXUAL NEUROPHYSIOLOGY is not modulated by mood, emotions, physical factorsis

False

In women, lubrication depends on both _ & _

intact innervation & normal estrogen levels

True or False: Testosterone levels should be high to produce an erection

True

In men, internal accessory organ functioning (including semen production) & erection are dependent on _

adequate testosterone levels

Triggered by direct stimulation of genitals a. Reflexogenic b. Psychogenic

A

Afferent: pudendal nerve → S2-S4 spinal segments → influence from the descending pathway → sacral parasympathetic center → pelvic nerve → genitalia a. Reflexogenic b. Psychogenic

A

Dominant in SCI pt (above psychogenic pathway); utilizes reflexogenic through touch a. Reflexogenic b. Psychogenic

A

Supraspinal origin (auditory, imaginative, visual, etc.) a. Reflexogenic b. Psychogenic

B

Medial preoptic nucleus → paraventricular (PV) nucleus of the hypothalamus → reticular activating system (RAS) → thoracolumbar sympathetic & sacral parasympathetic center a. Reflexogenic b. Psychogenic

B

Presence of morning (REM) erections is a sign that daytime erection problems are ____ in nature a. Reflexogenic b. Psychogenic

B

In SCI above LS , there is loss a. Reflexogenic b. Psychogenic

B

True or False: arousal is sympathetic

False (parasympthetic)

True or False: Ejaculation is predominantly parasympathetic in function

False (sympathetic)

S1 & S2 nerves → hypogastric nerves → activation of vas deferens, seminal vesicles, & prostate → smooth muscle contractions a. EJACULATION b. ORGASM c. AROUSAL

A

Sympathetic Hypogastric nerve (L1, L2) closes the neck of the bladder to prevent retrograde ejaculation. a. Seminal Emission (sympathetic T10-L2) b. Expulsion (parasympathetic S2-S4 & sympathetic)

A

Transport of semen into prostatic urethra via the ejaculatory duct in the prostate a. Seminal Emission (sympathetic T10-L2) b. Expulsion (parasympathetic S2-S4 & sympathetic)

A

When the hypogastric nerve is injured, lacerated, or is not functioning well, the neck of the bladder will not be closed & can cause retrograde ejaculation. a. Seminal Emission (sympathetic T10-L2) b. Expulsion (parasympathetic S2-S4 & sympathetic)

A

aka Propulsatile ejaculation (Parasympathetic S2–4 & somatic) a. EJACULATION b. ORGASM c. AROUSAL

A

Propulsion of semen distally or out of the urethral meatus or the opening of the urethra a. EJACULATION b. ORGASM c. AROUSAL
