The nursing instructor is discussing the physiology of pregnancy with her clinical group. What hormone,
produced during pregnancy, would the instructor tell the students helps to maintain the pregnancy until
birth of the fetus?
A.High levels of estrogen only
B.High levels of estrogen, low levels of progesterone
C.Low levels of estrogen, high levels of progesterone
D.High levels of estrogen and progesterone * VERIFIED ANS D
Feedback:
In a pregnant woman, both estrogen and progesterone hormones have specific functions. High levels of
both hormones are needed for the maintenance of pregnancy.
The nursing instructor is talking with her class of students about the female reproductive system. A
student is trying to understand the role of progesterone in the body. What nonreproductive affect does
progesterone have on the body?
A.Decreased body temperature B.Decreased appetite C.Anti*insulinD.Increased uterine motility *
VERIFIED ANS C
Feedback:
Progesterone has an anti*insulin effect to generate a higher blood glucose concentration to allow for
rapid diffusion of glucose to the developing embryo. Body temperature and appetite are increased by
progesterone. Uterine motility is decreased to provide increased chance that implantation can occur.

,What hormone causes ovulation to occur? A.Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH.
B.Luteinizing hormone (LH.
C.Prolactin
D.Follicle*stimulating hormone (FSH. * VERIFIED ANS B
Feedback:
When the circulating estrogen level rises high enough, it stimulates a massive release of LH from the
anterior pituitary causing one of the developing follicles to burst and release the ovum with its stored
hormones into the system. ACTH targets the adrenal corticosteroid hormone, which helps prepare the
body for the "fight or flight" response. Prolactin is responsible for milk production and FSH in combination
with LH stimulate follicles on the outer surface of the uterus to grow and develop and also stimulates the
release of estrogen and progesterone.
A 16*year*old girl comes to the clinic complaining of severe menstrual cramps. The girl is concerned
about the pain and worried that "something is wrong." The nurse explains to the patient that she has
cramping during her menstrual period because of what?
A.An increase in the levels of estrogen and progesterone, which cause uterine contractions
B.Low levels of plasminogen in the uterus that cause the shedding of the lining of the uterus
C.Prostaglandins in the uterus, which stimulate uterine contractions to clamp off vessels as the lining of
her uterus sheds
D.An increase in progesterone and a decrease of estrogen cause the lining of the uterus to slough away *
VERIFIED ANS C Feedback:
Prostaglandins in the uterus stimulate uterine contractions to clamp off vessels in the lining of the
uterus, which is the cause of the cramping. The decrease of estrogen and progesterone after the
involution of the corpus luteum triggers the release of follicle* stimulating hormone (FSH. and luteinizing
hormone (LH.. The decreased levels of FSH and LH cause the inner lining of the uterus to slough off
because the vascular system is no longer being stimulated. High, not low, levels of plasminogen in the
uterus prevent clotting of the lining as the vessels shear off.
2
, What hormone stimulates the release of the follicle*stimulating hormone (FSH. from both male and
female glands?
A.Growth hormone*releasing hormone (GHRH.
B.Thyrotropin*releasing hormone (TRH.
C.Gonadotropin*releasing hormone (GnRH.
D.Prolactin*releasing hormone (PRH. * VERIFIED ANS c
The male and female glands respond to luteinizing hormone (LH. and FSH, which are released from the
anterior pituitary in response to stimulation from GnRH that is released from the hypothalamus. GHRH
stimulates the release of the growth hormone, which targets cell growth. TRH stimulates the
thyroid*stimulating hormone, which targets the thyroid gland. PRH stimulates the release of prolactin,
which is necessary for milk production.
A nurse is providing patient education to a patient as part of her work in a fertility clinic. The nurse
explains possible reasons for infertility. When explaining how the ovaries are involved in conception, what
will the nurse stress?
A.Ova quickly degenerate and most are absorbed in the body before the age of 12.
B.The ovaries at birth contain all of the ova that a woman will have.
C.Ova aggregate, causing millions to be contained in a storage site called a follicle.
D.Follicles produce only estrogen; the uterus produces progesterone. * VERIFIED ANS b
It would be important to explain that the woman's ova do not increase or decrease from birth to
childbearing years. The nurse will stress that all the ova that a woman will have will be present at birth.
The patient should understand that if she does not ovulate 1 month or for several months, it is not
because she has done something to her body to cause this. Ova slowly degenerate over a lifetime or they
are released once a month until menopause is complete. Each ovum is contained in a storage site called a
follicle, which produces the female sex hormones, estrogen and progesterone.
