  • Spermicidal creams are used along with barrier methods to increase contraceptive efficiency
  • Abdominal pain and irregular menstrual bleeding are ill-effects of contraceptive methods
  • MTPs are considered safe when done within the first trimester
  • The sequence of events is as follows: formation of inner cell mass, uterine cells divide, blastocyst becomes embedded, the uterine cell covers the blastocyst then it leads to pregnancy
  • Estrogen is secreted by a growing ovarian follicle
  • Both LH and progesterone attain peak in the middle of menstrual cycle
  • In females, FSH and LH secretion increase during the luteal phase
  • The secretory phase is also called the luteal phase that lasts for about 10 to 14 days
  • Leydig cells are the secretory source of testicular hormones
  • Perisperm, seed coat, funicle, cotyledon, aleurone layer, endosperm,epicotyls, plumule, hypocotyls, radicle, hilum and integument are related to genetical zygotes.
