    Activity 2.2
    List the hormones that influence breast growth during puberty, and with each menstrual cycle.

    List the hormones that influence the breast during pregnancy.

    Note which one is most closely correlated to breast growth, and which one has a greater influence on breast function.

    Which hormone keeps milk production in check during pregnancy?

    Activity 2.3
    Describe each of the following, summarizing your knowledge:
    Alveolus

    Ductal system

    Write brief notes about coloured milk.

    Activity 2.8
    Define secretory differentiation, noting the hormones involved and their role.

    Activity 2.9
    Describe the onset of secretory activation, noting the hormones involved and their role.

    Activity 2.10
    The concept of breast storage capacity and milk synthesis is new to many health professionals. It is a very important
    concept to understand because it is scientific validation of our clinical recommendations.
    Design a lesson plan for how you would teach your colleagues about secretory activation and lactogenesis III and the
    impact of breast storage capacity on breastfeeding. Alternatively you may like to describe how you would incorporate
    these issues into a breastfeeding class for mothers.
    Use the following format for your lesson plan:
    • Topic of lesson
    • Time limit
    • Objectives
    • Teaching resources/aids
    • Main Points to be covered
    • Secretory activation: initiation and hormones involved
    • LIII: description; autocrine factors controlling milk secretion
    • Breast capacity: describe; correlate milk secretion with breast capacity
    • Clinical application for concepts taught
    • Method of evaluating understanding by your audience.

    Activity 2.11
    Give examples of each of the following causes of lactation insufficiency.
