E. Endometritis

Primary stage (Syphilis)

Hard chancre (lesions) on the genitalia and is very contagious

Breast cancer

Idiopathic cancer of the breast.

Syphilis

STD. Chronic bacterial disease caused by sexual intercourse. Caused by spirochete: Treponema pallidum.

Polycystic ovaries

Sacs filled with fluids that develop on or within the ovary

Endometriosis

Some of the tissue similar to the lining of the uterus (endometrium) grows outside of the uterus or in other parts of the body.

Toxic Shock Syndrome

Staphylococcus aureus Causes trauma to the membrane of the vagina and allows bacteria to enter the tissues, potentially causing septic infections. Overuse of tampons.

Benign enlargement of prostate gland

abnormal growth of prostate cells (noncancerous)

Orchitis

acute inflammatory reaction in the testicle, occurring in boys under the age of 10 as a result of mumps virus.

Tertiary stage (syphilis)

appearance of gumma (rubberlike substance)

Chlamydia infections

caused by Chlamydia trachomatis. Has no symptoms besides painful urination and genital pain. STD.

Gonorrheal infections

characterized by dripping exudate from the genitalia. STD.

Hydrocele

collection of edematous fluid in the scrotum.

Adenocarcinoma (cervical cancer)

developed from the glandular cells lining the cervical canal.

Cryptorchidism

failure of the testis to descend from its intra-abdominal location into the scrotum.

Hydrosalpinx

fallopian tube dilated with fluid

Pyosalpinx

fallopian tube filled with pus, and distended.

Tubal Ectopic Pregnancy

implantation of the fertilized ovum in a site other than the normal one in the uterine cavity. In most cases, the egg implants within the fallopian tube, although it may implant in the ovary or cervix. Usually caused by obstruction of the passage of the fertilized egg.

Yeast Infections

infection of vagina caused by a fungus known as Candida.

Oophoritis

infection or inflammation of the ovaries.

Salpingitis

inflammation of the fallopian tubes.

Endometritis

inflammation of the lining of the uterus due to bacterial infection

Prostatitis

inflammation of the prostate gland

Epididymitis

inflammation of the tube at the back of the testicle that stores and carries sperm.

Endocervicitis

inflammation of the uterus and the cervix.

Vaginitis

inflammation of the vagina

Secondary stage (Syphilis)

latent period characterized by a skin rash.

Testicular carcinoma

malignant cancer of the testicles

Hypertrophy

overdevelopment of the organ (prostate gland in this case)

Dermoid cysts

tumor that is covered in dermislike tissue that contains sebaceous glands, hair, cartilage, bonelike structures, nails or teeth.
