Uterine Disease
Uterine disease is a pathological condition of the womb (uterus). The uterus is the place where a baby grows when a woman is pregnant. In uterine disease the first sign may be bleeding between periods or after sex.
Pelvic Inflammatory Disease
Pelvic inflammatory disease occurs when certain bacteria or viruses enter the cervix from the vagina and spread upward infecting the uterus and fallopian tubes. If the infection is severe, it can spread to the ovaries (oophoritis) or produce a collection of pus in the fallopian tubes (tubo-ovarian abscess).
Tubal and Pelvic adhesions are bands of scar tissue that form between organs in the pelvic area. They are caused by infection, inflammation, endometriosis, or as areas heal from surgery.
Endometriosis
Endometriosis is the condition where the kind of tissue that lines the uterus (endometrium) grows outside the uterus.
Adenomyosis
Adenomyosis is a disease in which there are pockets of the kind of tissue that lines the uterus (endometrium) buried within the muscular wall (myometrium) of the uterus.
Uterine Fibroids
Uterine fibroids are the most common non-cancerous tumors in women of childbearing age, and are made of muscle cells and other tissues that grow in and around the wall of the uterus.
Endometrial Polyps
Endometrial polyps, or uterine polyps, are sessile masses in the inner lining of the uterus that project into the uterine cavity.They may have a large flat base (sessile) or be attached to the uterus by an elongated pedicle (pedunculated). Endometrial polyps can be solitary or occur with others.
Endometrial pedunculated polyp
Endometrial Hyperplasia
Endometrial hyperplasia is a condition that occurs when the lining of the uterus (endometrium) grows too much.
Endometrial Cancer
Endometrial cancer is cancer that starts in the the lining of the uterus (endometrium).
If you believe you have a pelvic disease, then you should see a Family Practice, Internal Medicine, or Gynecology specialist.
