Lesson 2: Female Reproductive System Flashcards
6 THE EXTERNAL GENITALIA
- Vulva
- Mons Pubis
- Labia Majora
- Labia Minora
- Vestibule
- Clitoris
portion of the female genital tract that are externally visible in the perineal region.
Vulva
overlies the pubic symphysis. Covered with pubic hair.
Mons Pubis
two longitudinal fold of skin that extend in elliptical fashion to enclose the vulval cleft.
Labia Majora
region between the Labia Minora that contains the opening for the vagina, urethra, and two execratory ducts for Bartholin Glands.
Vestibule
located at the junction of the Labia Minora and above the opening of the urethra. For pleasure only.
Clitoris
3 EXTERNAL GENITALIA DISORDERS
- DERMATOSE – SKIN DISEASE
- ATROPHIC CONDITIONS
- CIRCULATORY AND OTHER DISTRUBANCE
6 DERMATOSE – SKIN DISEASE
- Folliculitis
- Furuncles
- Herpes Genitalis
- Intertrigo
- Tinea Cruris
- Psoriasis
(DERMATOSE)
inflammation about the apertures of hair follicle.
Folliculitis
What causes Folliculitis
Staphylococcus aureus
(DERMATOSE)
larger and more deeply situated inflammation.
Furuncles
(DERMATOSE)
herpes simplex infection of the vulva.
Herpes Gentalis
(DERMATOSE)
appears as the red and brownish discoloration, in the inter labial sulci.
Intertrigo
(DERMATOSE)
is a fungal infection or ringworm of the groin.
Tine Cruris
(DERMATOSE)
most common presentation is persistent vulvar itching.
Psoriasis
4 ATROPHIC CONDITIONS
- Senile Atrophy
- Atrophic Vulvitis
- Vulvar Atypia
- Lichenification
(ATROPHIC CONDITIONS)
is defined as Decrease in the size of cells, tissues, or organs that has at one time been of normal size.
Atrophy
(ATROPHIC CONDITIONS)
vulva assumes an increasingly shrunken appearance (due to age)
Senile Atrophy
(ATROPHIC CONDITIONS)
progressive sclerosing atrophy of marked degree.
Atrophic Vulvitis
(ATROPHIC CONDITIONS)
slowly progressing, chronic, inflammatory, hypertrophic process involving the epidermis and subepithelial tissue.
Vulvar Atypia
(ATROPHIC CONDITIONS)
a thickened leathery appearance in which normal writing appears accentuated.
Lichenification
6 CIRCULATORY AND OTHER DISTRUBANCE DISORDER
- Varices of the Vulva
- Angioneurotic Edema
- Elephantiasis
- Hematoma
- Gonorrhea
- Syphilis
(CIRCULATORY/DISTURBANCE)
occurs most often during pregnancy or aftermath of multiple pregnancies.
Varices of the Vulva
(CIRCULATORY/DISTURBANCE)
allergic reaction, which may involve the vulva.
Angioneurotic Edema
(CIRCULATORY/DISTURBANCE)
chronic hypertrophic tissue changes.
Elephantiasis
(CIRCULATORY/DISTURBANCE)
What causes Elephantiasis
Wuchereria Bancrofti
(CIRCULATORY/DISTURBANCE)
secondary to a fall or blow, surgical trauma, or rupture of a varix.
Hematoma
(CIRCULATORY/DISTURBANCE)
is a sexually transmitted disease cause by a bacterium,
Gonorrhea
(CIRCULATORY/DISTURBANCE)
can lead to a disabling disease if left untreated.
Syphilis
removal of a per or all of the external genitalia.
Female Circumcision
4 TYPE OF INFIBULATION / GENITAL MUTILATION
- Clitoridectomy
- Clitoridectomy and Partial Excision of Labia Minora
- Modified Intermediate Infibulation
- Total Infibulation
Type of Infibulation that allows moderate posterior opening
Modified Intermediate Infibulation
Type of Infibulation that allows only small posterior opening for urine and menstrual flow.
Total Infibulation
Thin, firmz pigmented redundant skin folds enclose the clitoris
Labia Minora
