Obstetrics and gynaecology quiz trivia! A gynaecologist is a medical practitioner who is tasked with checking, treating and caring for women's reproductive systems. An obstetrician is tasked with taking care of pregnant women and new mothers as they get accustomed to having a child. If you are in the two fields, this quiz is for you.

A rapid decline in hCG levels may indicate which of the following cases?
- A.
Complete Abortion
- B.
Missed Abortion
- C.
Incomplete Abortion
- D.
Anembryonic Pregnancy
Correct Answer
A. Complete AbortionExplanation
A rapid decline in hCG levels may indicate a complete abortion. This is because hCG levels are produced by the placenta during pregnancy, and a rapid decline in these levels suggests that the pregnancy has ended. In a complete abortion, all of the products of conception (including the fetus, placenta, and other tissues) are expelled from the uterus. This can be confirmed by monitoring hCG levels, which should decrease rapidly after a complete abortion.Rate this question:

A greater than expected hCG levels may indicate all of the following except:
- A.
Gestational Trophoblastic Disease
- B.
Missed Abortion
- C.
Incorrect Dates
- D.
Multiple Gestation
Correct Answer
B. Missed AbortionExplanation
A greater than expected hCG levels may indicate Gestational Trophoblastic Disease, Incorrect Dates, or Multiple Gestation. However, it is unlikely to indicate Missed Abortion. Missed Abortion refers to a situation where the embryo has stopped developing, but the body has not yet recognized the loss. In this case, hCG levels would not be higher than expected.Rate this question:

Which of the following hormones stimulates maturation and ovulation of the dominant Graafian follicle?
- A.
Progesterone
- B.
Estrogen
- C.
FSH
- D.
LH
Correct Answer
D. LHExplanation
LH (luteinizing hormone) stimulates maturation and ovulation of the dominant Graafian follicle. It is released by the pituitary gland in response to high levels of estrogen. LH surge triggers the release of the mature egg from the follicle, leading to ovulation. Progesterone and estrogen also play important roles in the menstrual cycle, but they do not directly stimulate ovulation like LH does. FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) is responsible for the development and growth of the ovarian follicles, but it is not the hormone that triggers ovulation.Rate this question:

A rapid rise in hCG levels may indicate which of the following cases?
- A.
Complete Abortion
- B.
Molar Pregnancy
- C.
Incomplete Abortion
- D.
Anembryonic Pregnancy
Correct Answer
B. Molar PregnancyExplanation
A rapid rise in hCG levels may indicate a molar pregnancy. In a molar pregnancy, abnormal cells grow in the uterus instead of a normal embryo. These abnormal cells can produce high levels of hCG, which is the hormone typically associated with pregnancy. Therefore, a rapid increase in hCG levels can be a sign of a molar pregnancy.Rate this question:

A fibroid arising from the stalk can be described as___________
- A.
Leiomyoma
- B.
Subserosal
- C.
Pedunculated
- D.
Submucosal
Correct Answer
C. PedunculatedExplanation
A fibroid arising from the stalk can be described as pedunculated. This term is used to describe a fibroid that is attached to the uterus by a thin stalk or pedicle. This type of fibroid can often be seen hanging from the surface of the uterus and may cause symptoms such as pain or discomfort.Rate this question:

The benign tumor of uterine musculature is best described as which of the following?
- A.
Leiomyomas
- B.
Gartner's Cyst
- C.
Nabothian Cyst
- D.
Adenomyosis
Correct Answer
A. LeiomyomasExplanation
Leiomyomas are the correct answer because they are benign tumors that develop in the uterine musculature. These tumors are also known as uterine fibroids and are composed of smooth muscle cells. They are the most common type of benign tumor found in the uterus and can vary in size and number. Leiomyomas can cause symptoms such as heavy or painful periods, pelvic pain, and pressure on nearby organs, but they are not cancerous. Treatment options for leiomyomas include medication, non-invasive procedures, and surgery.Rate this question:

The portion of the Fallopian tube where fertilization takes place is the ____________
- A.
Isthmus portion
- B.
Intramural portion
- C.
Ampulla portion
- D.
Infundibulum
Correct Answer
C. Ampulla portionExplanation
The ampulla portion of the Fallopian tube is the correct answer because it is the widest and longest part of the tube, making it the ideal location for fertilization to occur. Sperm and egg meet in the ampulla, where fertilization takes place before the fertilized egg continues its journey towards the uterus.Rate this question:

The narrowest portion of the Fallopian tube that traverses the myometrium to open into the endometrial cavity is the ____________
- A.
Isthmus portion
- B.
Intramural portion
- C.
Ampulla portion
- D.
Infundibulum
Correct Answer
B. Intramural portionExplanation
The intramural portion of the Fallopian tube is the narrowest portion that passes through the myometrium and opens into the endometrial cavity. This portion is located within the uterine wall and is responsible for connecting the isthmus and the ampulla of the Fallopian tube. The isthmus is the narrowest part of the tube overall, but specifically, the intramural portion is the narrowest within the myometrium. The infundibulum is the widest portion of the tube and is responsible for capturing the released egg from the ovary.Rate this question:

The widest portion of the Fallopian tube is the ____________
- A.
Isthmus portion
- B.
Intramural portion
- C.
Ampulla portion
- D.
Infundibulum
Correct Answer
C. Ampulla portionExplanation
The ampulla portion of the Fallopian tube is the widest part. This is where fertilization of the egg usually occurs. The ampulla provides a spacious environment for the sperm and egg to meet and merge.Rate this question:

The Interstitial portion of the Fallopian tube is also known as the ____________
- A.
Isthmus portion
- B.
Intramural portion
- C.
Ampulla portion
- D.
Infundibulum
Correct Answer
B. Intramural portionExplanation
The interstitial portion of the Fallopian tube is also known as the intramural portion. This is the segment of the tube that passes through the muscular wall of the uterus. It is located between the isthmus portion, which connects the uterus to the ampulla portion, and the infundibulum, which is the funnel-shaped opening of the tube near the ovary.Rate this question:
