|---|---|
| How many chromosomes does each ova/gamete contain? | 23 |
| This organ is the womb and holds the embryo: | uterus |
| 3 layers of the uterus: | endometrium, myometrium, perimetrium (uterine serosa) |
| This is the lower narrow portion of the uterus: | cervix |
| This is the upper rounded part of the uterus: | fundus |
| The glands on either side of the vagina: | Bartholin's glands |
| Perineum | area between anus and vaginal orifice (pelvic floor) |
| Days 1-5 of menstrual cycle: | proliferation phase - menstruation - discharge of blood fluid containing endometrial cells, blood cells, glandular secretions from endometrium |
| Days 6-12 of menstrual cycle: | proliferation phase - endometrium repair - maturing follicle in ovary produces estrogen, causing endometrium to thicken and ovum to mature in graafian follicle |
| Days 13-14 of menstrual cycle: | secretory phase - ovulation - graafian follicle ruptures and ovum travels down fallopian tube |
| Days 15-28 of menstrual cycle: | secretory phase - premenstruation - graafian follicle converts to corpus luteum secreting progesterone to stimulated build-up of uterine lining |
| How many weeks does an average pregnancy last? | 39 |
| Approximate days of gestation: | 266 (but 280 used to calculate EDD or LMP) |
| Division of gestational trimesters: | 1st: LMP-12, 2nd: 13-27, 3rd: 28-EDD |
| Amniocentesis | percutaneous aspiration of amniotic fluid |
| CVS | Chorionic Villus Sampling - biopsy of outermost part of placenta |
| Cordocentesis | procedure to obtain a fetal blood sample (percutaneous umbilical blood sampling) |
| Curettage | scraping of a cavity using a spoon-shaped instrument |
| Cystocele | herniation of bladder into vagina |
| Ectopic Pregnancy | pregnancy outside uterus |
| Hysterectomy | surgical removal of uterus |
| Hysterorrhaphy | suturing of uterus |
| Hysteroscopy | visualization of canal and cavity of uterus using a scope placed through vagina |
| Introitus | opening or entrance to vagina |
| Ligation | binding or tying off |
| Multipara | more than one pregnancy |
| Oophorectomy | surgical removal of ovaries |
| Placenta | structure that connects mother and fetus during pregnancy |
| Primigravida | first pregnancy |
| Primipara | given birth to only one child |
| Salpingectomy | surgical removal of uterine tube |
| Salpingostomy | creation of opening into uterine tube |
| Tocolysis | repression of uterine contractions |
| Vesicovaginal Fistula | abnormal opening between vagina and bladder |
| Dysmenorrhea | painful menstruation |
| Amenorrhea | absence of menstruation |
| DUB | dysfunctional uterine bleeding - abnormal bleeding patterns |
| Oligomenorrhea | excess of 6 weeks between periods |
| Polymenorrhea | less than 3 weeks between periods |
| Metrorrhagia | bleeding between cycles |
| Menorrhagia | increase in amount and duration of flow |
| Hypomenorrhea | light or spotty flow |
| Menometrorrhagia | irregular cycle with varying amounts of menstrual flow and duration |
| Menorrhea | lengthy menstrual flow |
| Endometriosis | endometrial tissue develops outside the uterus |
| PID | pelvic inflammatory disease - infection and inflammation of reproductive tract |
| Candidiasis | yeast infection - affects mucous membranes and may result in dyspareunia and dysuria |
| This is the most common STD: | chlamydia (bacterial - results in discharge and dysuria) |
| Genital Herpes is caused by: | HSV-2 (herpes simplex 2 virus) |
| Genital warts are caused by: | human papillomavirus |
| Gonorrhea is caused by: | bacteria (Neisseria gonorrhoeae) |
| Syphilis is caused by: | bacteria (Treponema pallidum) |
| Trichmoniasis is caused by: | protozoa (Trichomonas vaginalis) |
| 3 classes of leiomyomas (benign uterine fibroids): | submucous, subserous, intramural |
| Adenomyosis | growth within uterine myometrium |
| Carcinoma of the breast most often develops in what part of the breast? | upper outer quadrant |
| Stage II of endometrial cancer involves: | corpus and cervix |
| Stage III of endometrial cancer extends: | outside uterus but not outside true pelvis |
| The most common gynecologic cancer: | epithelial tumors |
| The most common primary tumor of fallopian tubes: | adenocarcinoma |
| 90% of Vulva carcinomas are this type of tumor: | squamous cell carcinoma |
| Placenta Previa | opening of cervix is obstructed by displaced placenta |
| Abruptio Placentae | premature separation of placenta from uterine wall |
| Eclampsia | serious condition of pregnancy characterized by hypertension, edema, proteinuria |
| Hydatidiform Mole | benign tumor of placenta |
| 5 malpositions of vaginal delivery: | breech, vertex, face, brow, shoulder |
| 4 types of abortion: | spontaneous (miscarriage), incomplete, missed, septic |
| Most common solution for intra-amniotic injections: | saline |
| This type of dysmenorrhea is treated with nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agents and progesterone: | primary dysmenorrhea |
| In this type of amenorrhea, menstruation has never occured: | primary amenorrhea |
| In this type of amenorrhea, there is a cessation of menstruation: | secondary amenorrhea |
| 3 types of placenta previa: | marginal, partial, total |
