Abnormal uterine bleeding occurs across the entire age spectrum. Pregnancy, infection, birth-control methods, psychogenic causes, organic pathology, endocrine disorders, blood dyscrasias, systemic diseases and dysfunctional uterine bleeding are considered in the differential diagnosis. While the historical questions are similar regardless of age, the diagnostic methods, differential diagnosis a...

Peritoneal pregnancy is an implantation in the peritoneal cavity exclusive of tubal, ovarian, or intra-ligamentary implantations. This is a rare obstetric complication with high maternal mortality and even higher perinatal mortality, and secondary type was most common. Risk factors for peritoneal pregnancy are previous history of extrauterine pregnancy or tubal surgery pelvic post-inflammatory ...

In ruminants, there are specific times during the estrous cycle or pregnancy when the corpus luteum (CL) may undergo regression. This review has attempted to summarize the physiological and cellular mechanisms involved in CL regression or maintenance during four distinct periods. The first period is near day 7 when animals that are ovulating after a period of low circulating progesterone (P4), ...

Background: Endometriosis is defined as the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside the endometrial cavity and uterine musculature. The most common site of endometriosis is pelvis, but endometrotic implants may occur nearly anywhere in the body. Endometriosis is a common and serious gynecologic problem in reproductive age women, who have pelvic pain, dyspareunia, or infertility. The g...

A large majority of pregnancy loss in cattle occurs during the first three weeks after conception, particularly during the peri-implantation period. This review integrates established and new information on the biological role of ovarian progesterone (P4), prostaglandins (PGs) and interferon tau (IFNT) in endometrial function and conceptus elongation during the peri-implantation period of pregn...

Diagnosis of adnexal torsion can be difficult, especially during pregnancy. Delay in diagnosis can lead to necrosis and loss of the affected ovary compromising the reproductive capacity, especially in young women. A 22-year-old primigravida presented to the emergency room at 10 weeks of gestation with acute onset left iliac fossa pain. Ultrasound examination showed a live intra-uterine gestatio...

UNLABELLED INTRODUCTION We report that the coincidence of ovarian tumor and pregnancy poses significant challenges that are more pronounced if the pregnancy is ectopic. CASE PRESENTATION Here, we report a rare and interesting case of a 24-year-old nulliparous Spanish woman who experienced the coincidental occurrence of left tubal pregnancy and dysgerminoma in the right ovary. The corpus lu...

Ovarian ectopic pregnancy with IUCD We describe three cases of ovarian ectopic pregnancies with an intra-uterine device (IUCD) in situ, and suggest that prostaglandins may have played a major part in this combination. The IUCD alters the ratio of the prostaglandins secreted, so that tubal peristalsis is reversed and the fertilised ovum is carried the opposite way. Case reports Three multigravid...

Background: Early and accurate diagnosis of the cause pelvic pain in first trimester pregnancy is essential for appropriate clinical decision making thereby enabling correct timely management. The aim study was to evaluate role ultrasonography evaluation various causes correlate imaging findings with clinical/per-operative findings. Methods: This a prospective observational approved by Institut...
