TERM 1
Know about the two different phases of the
menstrual cycle what they are called and
primary hormones.
DEFINITION 1
Phase1: Follicular phase Phase 2: Lut eal Phase-GnRH: stimulates pituitary to
release FSH and LH-FSH: stimulates maturati on of ovum and sperm -Stimulates
production of estrogen -FSH an d LH blood levels peek before the 14th day-L H:
stimulates secretion of estrogen, progesteron e and testosterone -LH rises by FSH
and Estrogen and cause progeste rone tosecrete -outpour of LH level result in the
release of ovum from follicle and ovulation occurs-Estrog en: stimulates release of
GnRH in follicularphase and folliclegrowth an d maturation of follicle. -Stimulates
vascularity and storage of glycogen and othernutrients w ithin uterus-
Progesterone: Prepares Uterus for fertilized ov umincreasesvascularity of
endometrium and stimulatecell division of fe rtilized ova
TERM 2
Fertility is often compromised in women with
a body mass index (BMI) < _____ and > _____.
DEFINITION 2
<20 and >30
TERM 3
What is the best recommendation to give an
underweight woman with amenorrhea?
DEFINITION 3
GAIN WEIGHT
TERM 4
The recommended daily intake of folate for
ALL women who may become pregnant
is_____.
DEFINITION 4
400mcg/day or/and 6-8 servings of refined grain products
each day.-important because inadequate intake at very early
stage in pregnancy can cause neural tube defects
TERM 5
Know which nutrient exposures before and in
early pregnancy would disrupt fetal growth
and development (Table 2.7).
DEFINITION 5
-Insufficient FOLATE intake-Increase of: Vitamin A ( retinol,
retinoic acid) Lead-Iodine deficiency-Iron deficiency
