The document discusses diseases of the male and female reproductive systems. For males, it covers reproductive tract infections including endogenous, iatrogenic, and sexually transmitted infections. It also discusses congenital abnormalities, cancers of the prostate, penis and testicles, and functional problems like impotence and premature ejaculation. For females, the document summarizes reproductive tract infections, congenital abnormalities like arcuate and bicornate uteruses, cancers of the ovaries, uterus and cervix, and functional issues such as ectopic pregnancy, sexual arousal disorder, and dysmenorrhea.
3. MALE REPRODUCTIVE TRACT
INFECTION (RTI)
Reproductive tract infections are:
1. Endogenous infections
2. Iatrogenic infections
3. And the more commonly
known sexually transmitted
infections.
3
4. 1. ENDOGENOUS INFECTIONS
An infection caused by an infectious
agent that is already present in the
body, but has previously been
inapparent or dormant.
4
5. 2. IATROGENIC INFECTIONS
Infections caused by the health care
delivery team.
It is also called as nosocomial
infections.
Diagnostic procedures (mechanical
and radiological), therapeutic regimen
(drugs, surgery, other invasive
procedures), hospitalization and
treating doctor himself can bring about
iatrogenic disorders.

6. 3. SEXUAL TRANSMITTED
INFECTIONS
Also referred to as sexually
transmitted diseases (STD)
and venereal diseases (VD).
These are infections that are
commonly spread by sex,
especially vaginal intercourse, anal
sex or oral sex.
More than 30
different bacteria, viruses,
and parasites can cause STIs.
Examples: Syphilis, Gonorrhea etc.

7. CONGENITAL
ABNORMALITIES
Kallmann syndrome - Genetic disorder
causing decreased functioning of the
sex hormone-producing glands
caused by a deficiency or both testes
from the scrotum.
Intersexuality - A person who has
genitalia and/or other sexual traits
which are not clearly male or female.
7
8. CANCERS
Prostate cancer - Cancer of the
prostate gland
Penile cancer - Cancer of penis.
Testicular cancer - Cancer of the
testicle/(plural:testes).

9. FUNCTIONAL PROBLEMS
Impotence - The inability of a male to
produce or maintain an erection.
Hypogonadism - A lack of function of
the gonads, in regards to either
hormones or gamete production.
Premature ejaculation - A lack of
voluntary control over ejaculation.

11. FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE
TRACT INFECTION (RTI)
Reproductive tract infections can be in
either:
1. upper reproductive tract: fallopian
tubes, ovary and uterus.
2. lower reproductive tract: vagina,
cervix and vulva.
11
12. CONGENITAL
ABNORMALITIES
ARCUATE UTERUS is a form of a
uterine anomaly or variation where
the uterine cavity displays a concave
contour towards the fundus.
Normally the uterine cavity is straight
or convex towards the fundus on
anterior-posterior imaging.
12
13. BICORNATE UTERUS
OR BICORNUATE UTERUS : is a
commonly referred to as a "heart-
shaped" uterus.
A uterus composed of two "horns"
separated by a septum.
13
14. CANCERS
Ovarian cancer - Cancer of the ovary.
Uterine cancer - Cancer of the uterus.
Cervical Cancer - Cancer of
the cervix.
14
15. FUNCTIONAL PROBLEMS
Ectopic pregnancy - When a fertilized
ovum is implanted in any tissue other
than the uterine wall.
Female sexual arousal disorder - A
condition of decreased, insufficient, or
absent lubrication in females during
sexual activity.
Dysmenorrhea - Is a medical condition
of pain during menstruation that
interferes with daily activities.
