25
this is where the baby develops
uterus
26
site of fertilization
ampulla
27
help the uterus in place
broad ligament
28
milk ejection is stimulated by what hormone
oxytocin
29
follicle that surrounds the zona pellucida following the ovulation process and this will provide physical and internal protection to the oocyte
corona radiata
30
the one that supports the communication between the oocyte and the follicular cells during oogenesis
zona pellucida
31
important part of the extracellular martix that functions in cells during signalization
hyaluronic acid
32
shedding of the corpus luteum
menstruation
33
average cycle of menstruation
28 days
34
menstrual flow contains how many ml?
30-80 ml
35
abdominal cramping that occurs after the ovulation
mittelschmerz
36
abdominal pain that occurs during period
dysmenorrhea
37
hormone that inhibits the production of FSH; hypertrophy of endometrium, proliferation of endometrium, development of breast, incerase cervical mucus
estrogen
38
test done to know the stretchability of the cervical mucus
spinnbarkeit test
39
inhibits the production of LH; increase tortousity and secretions of endometrium, inhibits uterine motility; facilitate the transport of fertilized to the fallopian tube; increase body temp after ovulation
progesterone
40
body structures involved in menstruation
hypothalamus, anterior pituitary gland, ovary, uterus
41
cns response of mens
hypothalamus signals the anterior pituitary gland to release LH and FSH
42
ovarian response of mens
proliferative phase(development of follicle) and secretory phase (corpus luteum develops and degrades when no fertilization happens)
43
endometrial phase of mens
menstrual phase, proliferative phase, secretory phase, ischemic phase
44
begins with the end of menstruation where low levels of estrogen and progesterone will cause the hypothalamus to signal APG to GnRH to release FSH which stimulates the growth of follicle
follicular phase
45
happens on the 15th day or at the Peak day where the increase level of estrogen causes the hypothalamus to trigger APG to release LH which causes the rupture of the graafian follicle to rupture and release ovum.
ovarian phase
46
when 2 ova matures and both are fertilized it causes wwhat type of twin
fraternal twins
47
when 1 fertilized ovum, separates into two zygotes. this type of twin is called
identical twins
48
in this phase, Corpus luteum develops and continues to release progesterone to maintain the vascularity and the thickness of the endometrium. If no implantation happens, hypothalamus will signal APG to stop releasing LH and FSH which causes the corpus luteum to degrade
secretory/ luteal phase
49
what happens when corpus luteum degrades
due to the degradation of the corpus luteum, production of progesterone is all being lessen which causes the endometrial lining to be fragile and shred off which causes menstruation
50
branch of medicine that would take care of the woman as well as the inborn baby, deals with all aspects of pregnancy, prenatal to postnatal
obstetrician
51
practice of nursing care that is given to a woman before, during and after pregnancy
maternal
52
branch of nursing that is family centered. Assume responsibility for the whole cycle of the pregnant mother and to include the family member
maternal and child care
53
stages of pregnancy
fertilization, implantation, pre-placental, placental and fetal development
54
the process in which sperms penetrate to the outer layer of the ovum
fertilization
55
supports fertilization (4)
amniotic fluid, placenta, umbilical cord, fetal membranes
56
when the blastocyst attached to the endometrium after fertilization
implantati0on
57
collection of cells coded that undergone mitotic division that continuous to grow until it becomes a blastocyst
morula
58
3 process of implantation
apposition, adhesion, invasion
59
when blastocyst reach or brushed through the endometrium
apposition
60
when blastocyst attaches in the endometrium
adhesi9on
61
when blastocyst settles in into the soft folds of the endometrium
invasion
62
3 decidua
decidua basalis, decidua capsularis, decidua vera
63
portion of the decidua that later trophoblast estrablish communication with the maternal blood vessels which forms the maternal side of the placenta
decidua basalis
64
it encapsulates the trophoblast layer
decidua capsularis
65
embryonic membrane that is involved in implantation 4
amniotic fluid, yolk sac, chorionic villi, allantois
66
serves as a protective mechanism of the fetus where it serves as a protection from pressure/ blow; it also regulates temperature, and aids with the development of the fetus
amniotic fluid
67
normal amniotic fluid
800- 1200ml
68
it is involved in the production of the placenta. surrounded by a double layer of trophoblast and produces hormones
chorionic villi
69
hormones produce by the chorionic villi
Human Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone, progesterone, estrogen, human placental lactogen
70
produces rbc and immature sex cells; becomes part of the umbilical cord
yolk sac
71
contributes to the diff structures of the body such as the bladder and blood vessels; later on it deteriorate and becomes part of the umbilical cord
allantois
72
21 inches long from the mother to the placenta that transports nutrients, oxygen, minerals and waste products
umbilical cord
73
white substance that wraps and protects the 2 arteries and 1 veins
wharton's jelly
74
veins of the umbilical cord
2 arteries 1 veins
75
this acts as a fail-safe measure to ensure that corpus luteum of the ovary continues to produce progesterone and estrogen. This is important because if the CL fail and the progesterone decreases, the endometrial lining will slough and pregnancy will be lost
Human Chorionic Gonadotropin
76
a hormone with both growth promoting and lactogenic properties; also serves the important role of regulating maternal glucose, proteins and fats levels
human placental lactogen/ human somatomammotropin
77
these are toxic substances that can cause severe birth defects
teratogens
78
critical time of brain development
16 weeks
79
the outermost fetal membrane, its purpose is to form the sac that contains the amniotic fluid
chorionic membrane
80
second membrane lining the chorionic membrane that forms beneath the chorionic that forms the amniotic fluid
amniotic membrane
81
excessive amniotic fluid, exceeding to 2000 Ml
hydramnios
82
type of abortion where in nothing is done to the pregnant mother, it just occurs naturally without any artificial interference
spontaneous abortion
83
type of abortion that are caused by mechanical or artificial means to remove the baby
induced abortion
84
type of abortion that is performed by a physician as a form of treatment in saving the mother
therapeutic abortion
85
1st movement felt by the mother
quickening
86
fine hair that can be found all over the body
lanugo
87
a white cheesy substance that is found all over the body that is important for thermo regulation
vernix caseosa
88
transports the mixed blood from the baby to the placenta going back to the mother
umbilical artery
89
transports the oxygenated blood and nutrients from the mother to the placenta going to the fetus
umbilical veins
90
accessory vessels that delivers oxygenated blood directly to the fetal liver. It bypasses in the liver leaving 40% of it and the rest goes to the IVC
ductus venosus
91
septum between the right atrium to the left atrium where blood is shunted
foramen ovale
92
septum between the pulmonary artery to the aorta.
ductus arteriosus
93
abnormal connection between the aorta and the pulmonary artery in the hear
patent ductus arteriosus (PDA)
94
disorder where in there is a mixture of blood
