Trying to search for the answer to why do I look forward to EBL sometimes...and I found what I was looking for today...
Because I always provide 'textbook' answers. In other words, the model answer...
And today is the funniest. We were asked the mechanism of combined oral contraceptive pill (The Pill) and progestogen-only pill (Mini Pill). So I said that due to the synthetic hormone, the brain was tricked that there are too much oestrogen and progesterone. Due to negative feedback, the hypothalamus reduces the secretion of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and therefore, the anterior pituitary gland reduces the secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinising hormone (LH). For some reason, the questions today all revolved around negative feedback mechanism. And so I was termed as Miss Negative Feedback today!
Don't know whether to grimace or laugh...:S
Will be going to Toni&Guy tomorrow to arrange for a haircut since they have yet to give me a response ever since that last phone call...
