ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY
OF THE FEMALE INTERNAL REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
The internal reproductive anatomy includes the uterus, two ovaries, two fallopian tubes. The ovaries are the female reproductive glands where the 400,000 ova or egg cells are stored. The fallopian tubes tube-like a structure that convey the ovum from the ovaries to the uterus and provides a place for fertilization of ovum by sperm.
It is divided into four parts the interstitial portion that lies within the uterine wall, the isthmus that is cut or sealed during BTL, the ampulla where fertilization of an ovum occurs and the infundibular portion which is funnel-shaped structure and its rim is covered by fimbria(small hairs) that helps to guide the ovum into the fallopian tube. The lining of entire fallopian tube is composed of mucous membranes which contains both mucussecreting and ciliated (hair-covered)cells.
The uterus is a hollow, muscular pear-shaped organ located at the lower pelvis posterior to the bladder and anterior to the rectum. It receives ovum from the fallopian tube and provide place for implantation and nourishment during fetal growth.
It has three divisions the corpus (body) which the lining of the cavity is continuous with the fallopian tube which enter the upper aspect (cornua), the isthmus which enlarges greatly to aid in accommodating the growing fetus during pregnancy, the cervix the lower portion of the uterus which contains a small opening called the os. Semen travels through the os into the uterus and the fallopian tubes following ejaculation
Fertilization is the meeting of sperm cell and the fertilized ovum. It can only occur if intercourse takes place before the time of ovulation that usually occurs mid-cycle or about 14 days before the woman's next menstrual period. At the time of ovulation, the ovum is released from the ovary and transported in the fallopian tube where it remains for about 24-48 hours.
Sperm cells remain viable within the female reproductive tract for about 72 hours. Only a single sperm cell is needed to fertilize the ovum, even though the average ejaculation contains approximately 300 million sperm.
During fertilization, the sperm enters the cell membrane of the ovum so the nuclei of the sperm and egg cells combine to form a zygote. The zygote will remain in the fallopian tube for approximately three days before it travels to the uterus through the help of the hair like structures called cilia where it will remain for approximately four to five days before implantation or
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
Predisposing
Precipitating
Age: Above 25 PID; Infertility; Use of Gender: IUD; Female Tubal Surgery; Previous Smoking; Tubal Ectopic Ligation Signs and symptoms: Pregnancy
Clinical presentation of ectopic pregnancy occurs at a mean of 7.2 wks. After the last menstrual period with range of 5-8 wks. Pain in the lower Abdomen and inflammation Pain while urinating Pain and discomfort. A corpus luteum on the ovary In a normal pregnancy mat give very similar symptoms. Vaginal bleeding, usually mild. An ectopic pregnancy is usually a failing pregnancy and falling levels of progesterone from the corpus luteum on the ovary cause withdrawal bleeding. Pain while having a bowel movement.
Patients with a late ectopic pregnancy typically experience pain and bleeding, this bleeding will be both vaginal and internal and has two discrete pathophysiologic mechanism. 1. External bleeding- due to falling progesterone levels. 2. Internal bleeding- due to hemorrhage from the affected tube. Severe internal bleeding may cause: Lower back, abdominal, or pelvic pain. Shoulder pain, This is caused by free blood tracking up the abdominal cavity and irritating the diaphragm, and is an eminous sign. Cramping or even tenderness on one side of the pelvis. Can mimic diseases such as appendicitis

HEALTH TEACHING
Educate the pt on the nature of Ectopic pregnancy
SCHEDULE FOR NEXT VISIT
Instruct pt to return 1 week after discharge for follow up check-up. Emphasize importance of follow up check ups.
SPIRITUAL
Encourage pt to continue trusting God, to pray. Explain to pt that everything happens for a reason and they’re still alternatives to having children.
LIFESTYLE
Encourage pt to take adequate rest and take proper meals. Socializing with people and having a healthy relationship with friend may help divert patient’s attention from his vices, and restore her love for life. Reuniting with her family may also help her psychological condition. Refer to a female reproductive specialist such as obstetrician or gynecologist for further consultation or go to a nearest health center or hospital.
