Clinical Presentations | Treatments | Pathophysiology | Lab Values | Miscellaneous |
---|---|---|---|---|
What is hyperprolactinemia
G0P0 30yo, B-HCG negative female presents with amennorhea and galactorrhea
|
What is adenoma removal and control of cortisol production/tissue response
Cushing's Syndrome
|
What is Turner's Syndrome
Failure to produce estrogen/progesterone due to lack of ovaries/functional follicles
|
What is premature ovarian failure (Turner's Syndrome)
Low estrogen, High FSH and LH
|
What is failure
Predict Progesterone Challenge and Estrogen Progesterone Challenge Results: Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome
|
What is androgen insensitivity syndrome
46 XY 17 yo female (with normal, shallow vagina) presents with amenorrhea, dyspareunia, exam shows scant pubic hair
|
What is Asherman's syndrome
hysteroscopic lysis of adhesions
|
What is a defect in androgen receptors in XY embryo leads to development of secondary female sex characteristics despite primary (immature) XY sex characteristics (i.e. undescended testicles). Presence of shallow vagina because last 1/3 of vagina is ectod
Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome
|
What is high prolactin, decreased FSH, LH, estrogen, progesterone
hyperprolactinemia
|
What is secretion of B-HCG, surrounds terminal buds of chorionic villi to separate maternal and fetal blood supply
Role of syncytiotrophoblast in pregnancy
|
What is Turner's syndrome
17 yo 4'8" female presents with primary amenorrhea secondary to delayed puberty, ultrasound reveals ovarian streaks
|
What is Turner's Syndrome
Estrogen therapy until age 15 yo
birth control pill (HRT) >15 yo IVF if desire to become pregnant |
What is abnormal fibrosis of uterus post-trauma
Asherman's Syndrome
|
What is high ACTH, low FSH, LH, estrogen, progesterone
Cushing's syndrome
|
What is failure of progesterone, bleeding after estrogen-progesterone challenge.
Predict Progesterone Challenge and Estrogen-Progesterone Challenge Results: Turner's Syndrome
|
What is Cushing's syndrome
30 yo female, chief complaint amenorrhea, also complains of weight gain in the stomach area, exam shows hypertension, blood work hyperglycemia
|
What is hormone replacement, gonadectomy of cryptorchid testes (can be cancer causing if left untreated)
Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome
|
What is Cushing's Syndrome
Increased cortisol production causing negative feedback to HPG axis, decreasing GnRH pulsatility. Additional androgenic excess due to overstimulation of adrenal cortex
|
What is Asherman's syndrome
blood work is normal
|
What is osteoprotegerin
Provides "decoy" receptor for RANKL in bone growth and repair, is upregulated by estrogen.
|
What is Asherman's Syndrome
25 yo female presents with amenorrhea persisting 4 months post abortion, fails both the progesterone challenge and the estrogen-progesterone challenge
|
What is hyperprolactinemia
adenoma removal, dopamine agonist (inhibitory to a specific hormone in anterior pituitary)
|
What is Hyperprolactinemia
Prolactinoma causing increased prolactin secretion resulting in negative feedback to HPG axis
|
What is
high estrogen, LH, testosterone
|
What is inhibition of osteoblast activity, promoter of osteoclast activity via decrease in osteoprotegerin, upregulation in RANKL
glucocorticoids affect on bone growth
