REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY AND EMBRYOLOGY

Course Description

This course is designed to explore the scientific principles that govern human reproduction. There will be an anatomical overview of female and male reproductive systems. There will also be a focus on menstrual and ovarian cycles, fertilization, implantation and embryonic development; development from fertilization to the blastocyst stage, implantation and placental development and embryogenesis. Reproductive disorders and abnormalities such as ectopic pregnancies, miscarriages, preterm births, fetal disorders, placental complications, parturition, and lactation are discussed, including teratology. Special topics such as infertility and the environmental causes of infertility, current assisted reproductive technologies; their development, advancement, risks, controversies and the future outlook of such technologies will be discussed. Additionally, the pathophysiology of female and male reproductive systems, in vitro fertilization and fertility medications will be explained.
