What is selective reduction?

-----removal of one or more fetuses in the uterus, leaving others to develop normally -Can imperil the entire pregnancy, generally viewed as a last resort

Some disease risk increase after menopause

---Increase in part because of the changes in hormone concentrations but also due to the cumulative effects of aging ----As the protective effects of estrogen and progesterone decline, the importance of healthy lifestyle choices increases (reduce the risk of serious diseases) = healthy diet, smoking cessation, adequate exercise

When is Artificial Insemination used?

---when the source of infertility is poor semen quality ------Can use either concentrated sperm from a male partner' s semen or donor semen

Sebaceous (oil) glands

--Associated with hair follicles --Sebum lubricates skin = helps prevent dehydration and cracking -------Also antibacterial

-Fertilization takes place in vitro -Obtains direct evidence of fertilizing capacity

Hormone Changes with menopause

-Follicles lost by ovulation and atresia through childhood, adolescence, and maturity -As the number of follicles decline, the ovaries produced less estrogen -Eventually, there is not enough estrogen to inhibit the pituitary gonadotropins = FSH and LH -When the level of estrogen falls below a critical level, the hormonal feedback system that facilitates menstruation is altered - eventually the reduced level of estrogen is not enough to cause cells of the endometrium to proliferate and the menstrual cycle stops

Risk factors for obesity Age

Obesity can occur at any age, even in young children. But as you age, hormonal changes and a less active lifestyle increase your risk of obesity. In addition, the amount of muscle in your body tends to decrease with age. This lower muscle mass leads to a decrease in metabolism. These changes also reduce calorie needs, and can make it harder to keep off excess weight.
