DISEASES OF THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Inflammatory/degenerative
inflammation of the innermost layer of the uterus - IUD use can cause this condition
Endometritis
DISEASES OF THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Inflammatory/degenerative
inflammation of the endocervix, the innermost layer of the lower constricted neck-like portion of the uterus. Diaphragm use and spermicide use can this condition.
Endocervicitis
DISEASES OF THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Inflammatory/degenerative
inflammation of the fallopian tubes. Could cause a woman to become permanently sterile. Site of fertilization
Salpingitis
DISEASES OF THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Inflammatory/degenerative
inflammation of one or both of the ovaries. Could be a cyst, ovarian cancer, or excess scar tissue.
Oophoritis
DISEASES OF THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Inflammatory/degenerative
inflammation of the vagina or birth canal.
vaginitis
DISEASES OF THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Inflammatory/degenerative
sexually transmitted diseases.
Gonorrheal and chlamydial infection
DISEASES OF THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Inflammatory/degenerative
sexually transmitted disease, a spiral shaped bacteria
Syphilis
DISEASES OF THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Inflammatory/degenerative
virus, herpes simplex II, sexually transmitted infection
Herpes infection
DISEASES OF THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Inflammatory/degenerative
exterior, any time a fertilized egg plants itself in any part of the body other than the uterus. Most common is called a tubal ectopic pregnancy. Another place for an ectopic pregnancy would be the middle of peritoneum
Ectopic pregnancy
DISEASES OF THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Inflammatory/degenerative
the toxcemia of pregnancy that could occur in the last trimester of pregnancy. Does not always present itself, but if it does it causes coma, high blood pressure and death.
Eclampsia
DISEASES OF THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Inflammatory/degenerative
Endometritis Endocervicitis Salpingitis Oophoritis Vaginitis Gonorrheal and chlamydial infection Syphilis Herpes infection Ectopic pregnancy Eclampsia
DISEASES OF THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Hyperplastic/neoplastic
a condition where the presence of endometrial tissue is in parts of the body other than the uterus
Endometriosis
DISEASES OF THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Hyperplastic/neoplastic
an enclosed sack-like pouch contains tissue not normally found. a rare ovarian cyst that contains a waxy tissue and other structures not normally found - like teeth.
Dermoid cysts
DISEASES OF THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Hyperplastic/neoplastic
. Lung cancer has surpassed breast cancer in women as the leading cause of death. Cervical cancer usually results in a hysterectomy.
Cancer - breast or cervical

Postmortem conditions of diseases of the female reproductive system
Rapid blood coagulation
2. Edema (ascites) excess fluid in the peritoneal and abdominal cavities.
- Infection - a need to disinfect the body.
1st area to decompose in a pregnant woman is the pregnant uterus. Last area to decompose in a non-pregnant woman is the non-pregnant uterus.
DISEASES OF THE MALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Inflammatory/degenerative
inflammation of one or more of the testes. Caused by:
(1) Trauma (kick the groin)
(2) Severe case of the mumps
(3) An untreated sexually transmitted disease
Orchitis
DISEASES OF THE MALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Inflammatory/degenerative
inflammation of the prostate gland. Symptoms bathroom frequency and the feeling of not completely emptying bladder, this is due to cancer of the prostate
Prostatitis
DISEASES OF THE MALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Inflammatory/degenerative
excess edematous fluid in a saculated cavity, specifically the scrotum.
Hydrocele
DISEASES OF THE MALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Inflammatory/degenerative
Orchitis
Prostatitis
Hydrocele
DISEASES OF THE MALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Genetic/developmental
a condition where one or both of the testes fail to descend completely into the scrotum.
Cryptorchism
DISEASES OF THE MALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Genetic/developmental
abnormal protrusion of a body part or organ into
a section it should not be found
Hernia
DISEASES OF THE MALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Genetic/developmental
Cryptorchism
Cryptorchism
DISEASES OF THE MALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Hyperplastic/neoplastic
usually after 60 the prostrate gland has enlarged in size due to the natural aging process. DRE- digital rectal exam is how it is commonly diagnosed
