  • Back
i. Broad ligament is
a double layer that lays over uterus and fallopian tubes
ii. Round ligament-
keeps uterus in place-made of longitudinal muscle, enlarge in pregnancy, in labor pull uterus forward/down to help presenting part of fetus get into cervix.
iii. Ovarian
anchor the ovaries to the uterus
iv. Cardinal
are chief uterine supports
v. Infundibulopelvic-
suspends and supports ovaries
a. Follicular phase (days 1–14) of the ovarian cycle
i. Graafian follicle appears by day 14
ii. Under dual control of FSH and LH
iii. Mittelschmerz
iv. Body temperature increases after ovulation
Uterosacral
support uterus and cervix , contains sensory nerve fibers responsible for dysmenorrhea
b. Luteal phase (days 15–28) of the ovarian cycle
i. Begins when ovum leaves follicle
ii. High levels of progesterone/low levels of estrogen
iii. When the ovum is fertilized and implants in the endometrium, the fertilized egg begins to secrete hCG hormone to maintain the corpus luteum.
a. Menstrual phase (days 1-6) of menstrual cycle
is shedding of the endometrial lining, estrogen levels are low, scant mucous
Ischemic stage (days 27-28)- of menstrual cycle
degeneration of corpus luteum, falling estrogen and progesterone levels, constriction of the spiral arteries, Escape of blood into stromal cells of endometrium
b. Proliferative phase (days 7-14)- of menstrual cycle
endometrial glands begin to enlarge, cervical mucosal changes under estrogen influence
Secretory stage (days 15-26)- of menstrual cycle
follows ovulation, under influence of progesterone, uterus increases in vascularity to prepare for baby
a. Day 15 to Week 8
Tissues differentiate into essential organs
b. Week 3
i.
Most advanced organ is heart
c. Week 4
i. Beginning development of GI tract
ii. Somites develop – beginning vertebrae

iv. Eyes, nose begin to form
v. Arm, leg buds present
d. Week 6
i. Trachea developed
ii. Liver produces blood cells
iii. Trunk straighter
iv. Digits develop
v. Tail begins to recede
vi. Fetal circulation is established
f. At 9 weeks
i. Every organ system, structure present = organogenesis
ii. Gestation time
iii. Refining structures
iv. Perfecting function
g. Week 12
i. Eyelids closed
ii. Tooth buds appear
iii. Fetal heart tones can be heard
iv. Genitals well differentiated
v. Urine produced
vi. Spontaneous movement occurs
h. Week 16
i. Lanugo begins to develop
ii. Blood vessels clearly developed
iii. Active movements present
iv. Fetus makes sucking motions
v. Fetus swallows amniotic fluid
vi. Fetus produces meconium
vii. Can determine sex
i. Week 20
i. Subcutaneous brown fat appears
ii. Quickening felt by mother
iii. Nipples appear over mammary glands
iv. Fetal heartbeat heard by fetoscope
j. Week 24
i. Eyes structurally complete
ii. Vernix caseosa covers skin
iii. Alveoli beginning to form
k. Week 28
i. Testes begin to descend
ii. Lungs structurally mature
iii. Eyes reopen
l. Week 32
i. Rhythmic breathing movements
ii. Ability to partially control temperature
iii. Bones fully developed but soft and flexible
iv. Less wrinkled and red, laying down subcutaneous fat
m. Week 36
i. Increase in subcutaneous fat
ii. Lanugo begins to disappear
iii. Fingernails to end of fingers
n. Week 38
i. Skin appears polished
ii. Lanugo disappears except in upper arms and shoulders
iii. Hair now coarse and approximately 1-inch long
iv. Fetus is flexed
a. Autosomal dominant:
Multigenerational, 50% chance of passing on the gene, Males and females equally affected, Varying degrees of presentation
Autosomal dominant disorders
heterozygous; the abnormal gene overshadows the normal gene of the pair to produce the trait.
- male and female equally affected; each have 50% chance of passing on the abnormal gene
-father can pass to son

Disorders: Huntington disease, Myotonic dystrophy,
Autosomal Recessive disorder
both parents must have it. 25% chance that the child will be affected. If child is clinically normal, then their is a 2/3 of a chance that the child is a carrier.
- increased chance for marriage within relatives
- cycstic fiberosis, pku, galactosemia, sickle anemia, tay-sachs disease and metabolic disorders
X-linked Recessive disorders
Abnormal gene is carried on the x chromsone. Men who carry the disorder are considered hemizygous.
- no male to male transmission, Affected males get it from mom
- Mom passing : 50% of sons will be affected, 50% of daughers will be carriers.
- fathers can't pass to son but all their daughters will be carriers

- Fragile X, hemophilia, duchenne muscular dystrophy, color blindness.
Fragile X Syndrome
Exhibits anticipation. 2nd most common to down syndrome. Inherited intellectual disability ( mental retardation )
X-linked Dominant inheritance
- rare
- no male to male transmission
- heterozygous females are affected too
- affected fathers will have affected daughters
- can be lethal in utero or in new born period in hemizygous males
- vitamin D resistant rickets , rett syndrome, severe forms of otopaataldigital (OPD) syndrome.
Multifactorial Inheritance
Caused by the interaction of many genes and environmental factors and are considered to have multifactorial
- sex bias
- pyloric stenosis more common in males, cleft palate more common in females
