Gawlik Ch 20: Evidence-Based Assess ment of the Female
Genitourinary System Questions with Answers
true pelvis - correct answers>>true pelvis refers to the opening in the pelvis the fetus passes through
during childbirth. It is composed of the pelvic inlet, the pelvic wall, and the pelvic outlet.



The bony pelvis contains four joints: ? - correct answers>>The bony pelvis contains four joints: two
sacroiliac (SI) joints, the pubic symphysis, and the sacrococcygeal symphysis



Sacro iliac joints - correct answers>>are synovial joints that connect the ilium and the sacrum and
redistribute forces from the lower limbs to the vertebral column



pubic symphysis - correct answers>>pubic symphysis is a fibrocartilaginous joint connecting the anterior
pubic bones and is supported by the superior and inferior pubic ligaments.



The sacrococcygeal symphysis - correct answers>>is a hinge joint that connects the distal portion of the
sacrum to the coccyx, allowing for flexion and extension of the coccyx



The muscles located inside the pelvic cavity are ____? - correct answers>>found bilaterally and include
the piriformis, obturator internus, coccygeus, and levator ani.



the female external genitalia include _____?(vulva) - correct answers>>the mons pubis, labia majora and
minora, clitoris, vaginal introitus, hymen, vestibule, urethral meatus, and the posterior fourchette



where is the location from which Papanicolaou (Pap) sampling is performed ? - correct answers>>The
transformation zone, also referred to as the squamocolumnar junction, is the location from which
Papanicolaou (Pap) sampling is performed and which is the origin of most cervical cancers.



The three phases of the ovarian cycle are ____? - correct answers>>follicular, ovulatory, and luteal



The follicular phase of the ovarian cycle - correct answers>>begins on day 1 of the menstrual cycle and
lasts through approximately day 14. A primary ovarian follicle develops as a result of the release of FSH
from the anterior pituitary gland. During the course of maturation, this developing follicle releases
estradiol

, The ovulatory phase - correct answers>>begins with a surge in LH and FSH levels. The surge in LH
stimulates the release of an egg (ovulation) within 16 to 32 hours after the surge begins. The estrogen
level decreases during the surge and the progesterone level starts to increase.



The luteal phase - correct answers>>begins with the surge of LH at approximately day 14 of the cycle and
ends with the first day of menses. This rapid rise in LH stimulates the production of progesterone and the
production of these hormones ultimately results in ovulation, which describes the release of the mature
ovum from the follicle. If fertilization fails to occur, hormone production dwindles and the decreasing
levels of estradiol and progesterone result in a rise in FSH, starting the cycle over again



The endometrial cycle consists of three phases_____? - correct answers>>the menstrual phase, the
proliferative phase, and the secretory phase.



The menstrual phase - correct answers>>begins on the first day of menses, referred to as day 1 of the
menstrual cycle, and lasts approximately 3 to 5 days, although this is variable, and bleeding for 2 to 7
days is considered to be normal.



The proliferative phase - correct answers>>The proliferative phase begins on approximately the fourth or
fifth day of the menstrual cycle and lasts for about 10 days.

begins the preparation of the endometrium for implantation of a fertilized ovum.



The secretory phase - correct answers>>begins on approximately day 15 of the menstrual cycle or about
1 day after ovulation occurs. Progesterone levels rise after ovulation, which stimulates the glands of the
endometrium to increase secretion. The increased secretions provide a thick, nutrient-rich environment
for implantation. If fertilization and subsequent implantation fail to occur, falling progesterone and
estradiol levels trigger the initiation of endometrial regression, ending in the menstrual phase.



Menopause - correct answers>>is defined as the cessation of menstrual bleeding for 12 consecutive
months in a woman with a uterus.



Gravida - correct answers>>A pregnant woman; the number of pregnancies, regardless of outcome



Primigravida - correct answers>>A woman in her first pregnancy or who has been pregnant only
