Signs of ovulation (5)

- Cervical mucus becomes thinner - resting body temp rises slightly - LH surge occurs about 24 hours prior to ovulation - Twinges of ovarian pain (mittelschmerz) - Best time for conception

Premenstrual phase

- Pregnancy does not occur, corpus lutein involutes. As corpus luteum involutes, progesterone levels drop, hormones that promote uterus decline, endometrium thins

Causes of cervical cancer (5)

- Smoking - Early age - Sexual activity - STDs - Human papillomavirus increase risk

Trimesters

3 month intervals

pH in the vagina

3.5-4, which inhibits growth of pathogens

What is formed after meiosis I

A secondary oocyte and the first polar body are formed

What is the size of the uterus in pregnant women and non pregnant women?

A watermelon in pregnant women and a pear in non pregnant women

Labor Contractions

Cervical stretching to oxytocin secretion to uterine contraction to cervical stretching

Menopause

Cessation of menstruation (age 45-55) - Less estrogen and progesterone secretion by follicles uterus, vagina, and breast atrophy - Skin becomes thinner - Intercourse becomes uncomfortable as vagina is thinner, less distensible, and drier - Bone mass declines - Hot flashes

Areola

Circular colored zone - blood capillaries and nerves closer to skin surface- more sensitive

Smooth muscle fibers in dermis of areola contract in response to

Cold, touch, and sexual arousal

Cervical cancer

Common among women 30-50. Usually begins in epithelial cells in lower cervix.

Menstrual Cycle

Consists of a buildup of the endometrium followed by its breakdown and vaginal discharge 4 phases

Primordial follicles

Consists of primary oocyte in early meiosis, surrounded by a single layer of squamous folllicular cells.

If pregnancy occurs, what happens to the corpus luteum?

Continues to progesterone

When follicle ruptures it becomes

Corpus Luteum

After ovulation, the remaining portions of the follicle forms the

Corpus Luteum (under influence of Lutenizing Hormone)

Primary follicles

Cubodial follicular cells that still single layer

The Ovarian Cycle Luteal Phase

Days 15 to day 18 from just after ovulation to the onset of menstraiton

During Luteal phase FSH and LH levels

Decline. As corpus luteum involutes, its hormone production declines

Basal Layer (stratum basalis)

Deep layer of the endometrium, stays behind and regenerates a new functional layer with each menstrual cycle

Conceptus

All products of conception- the embryo or fetus, the placenta, and associated membranes

What is breast size determined by>

Amount of adipose tissue

Pubarche

Appearance of pubic and axillary hair, sebaceous glands, and axillary glands

Suspensory ligaments attach breast to

Dermis of overlying skin and fascia of the pectoralis major

Mature follicles

Destined to ovulate

Mammary gland

Develops within the bread during pregnancy - remains active in the lactating breast

Vagina (Birth canal)

Distensible muscular tube - allows for discharge of menstrual fluid, receipt of penis and semen, and birth of baby

Lactiferous duct

Drains each lobe. There are 15-20 lobes around the nipple

What do the ovaries lack

Ducts. Instead each egg develops in its own fluid filled follicle

Endometrial changes

During proliferative phase, endometrium grows due to mitosis however during the secretory phase the endometrium grows due to secretion and fluid accumulation

Oogenesis

Egg production - Produces haploid gametes by means of meiosis - releases one egg each month

Breast

Enlarges at puberty - Nonlactating breast consists of adipose and collagenous

Vestibular bulbs

Erectile tissue deep to the labia major - Cause the vagina to tighten around the penis, enhancing sexual stimulation

Clitoris

Erectile, sensory organe with no urinary role Covered by the prepuce and primary center for erotic stimulation

The most abundant estrogen is

Estradiol

Corpus Luteum grows and produces

Estradiol, progesterone and inhibin

Follicles produce

Estradiol. As follicles grow and develop they produce estrogen

Follicles secrete

Estrogen, progesterone, inhibin, and a small amount of androgen

Hormones with the strongest influence on pregnancy are (4)

Estrogens, pregesterone, human chorionic gonadotropin, human chorionic somatomammotropin. All primarily secreted by the placenta

Feminizing hormones

Menstrual Cycle Menstrual phase

First day of menstrual fluid discharge, typically lasts 5 days

Menarche

Follicle- stimulating hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing hormone (LH)

Oogonia

Form during fetal development then become primary oocytes by birth

Embryo

From day 16 through 8 weeks

Menstrual Cycle Proliferative phase

Functional layer (shed during menstruation) is rebuilt. At day 5 of menstruation the endometrium consists of only basal layer, so estrogen from developing follicles stimulates mitosis in basal layer and the regrowth of the functional layer (2-3 mm by day 14)

Menstrual Cycle Secretory Phase

Functional layer thickens by secretion and fluid accumulation rather than mitosis. Endometrium thickens still more in response to progesterone from corpus luteum.

Portions of the Uterus (3)

Fundus- broad superior curvature Body (corpus)- middle portion Cervix- Cylindrical inferior end

Tertiary follicles

Granulosa cells begin secreting follicular fluid. Estradiol is produced Antrum- forms a single fluid filled cavity Cumulus oophorus- a mound of granulosa cells Corona radiata- innermost layer of cells forming a protective barrier around the egg

Uterine Wall: Endometrium

Inner mucosa - During pregnancy, endometrium is the site of attachment of the embryo and forms the maternal part of the placenta from while the fetus is nourished

What stimulates the corpus luteum to continue to grow and secrete rising levels of progesterone and estradiol

LH

What induce ovulation

LH surge, due to positive feedback

Female Sexual Response Excitement and Plateau
