They are graded either via the Baden-Walker System or the Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification ( POP-Q ) System.

Pregnancy related Pelvic Girdle Pain is a significant musculoskeletal disorder that begins in pregnancy and for some women last for years.

The Pelvic Pain Urgency / Frequency ( PUF ) Patient Survey, created by C. Lowell Parsons, is a short questionnaire that will help physicians identify if pelvic pain could be coming from the bladder.

Pelvic floor dysfunction is a fairly new area of specialty for physical therapists world wide.

In 2007, the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases ( NIDDK ) began using the umbrella term Urologic Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndromes ( UCPPS ) to refer to pain syndromes associated with the bladder ( i. e. interstitial cystitis / bladder pain syndrome, IC / BPS ) and the prostate gland ( i. e. Chronic prostatitis / chronic pelvic pain syndrome ).

* Pelvic Myoneuropathy-a new explanation for painful bladder.

Pelvic inflammatory disease ( or disorder ) ( PID ) is a term for inflammation of the uterus, fallopian tubes, and / or ovaries as it progresses to scar formation with adhesions to nearby tissues and organs.

Pelvic inflammatory disease is more likely to occur when there is a history of pelvic inflammatory disease, recent sexual contact, recent onset of menses, or an IUD in place or if the partner has a sexually transmitted infection.

Pelvic floor dysfunction may be the underlying cause of some women's pain.

Uterine prolapse ( or Pelvic organ prolapse ) occurs when the female pelvic organs fall from their normal position, into or through the vagina.

Pelvic physical therapy involves both external and internal modalities.

Pelvic Muscle Dysfunction Biofeedback ( PMDB ) encompasses " elimination disorders and chronic pelvic pain syndromes.

" The BCIA didactic education requirement includes a 28-hour course from a regionally-accredited academic institution or a BCIA-approved training program that covers the complete Pelvic Muscle Dysfunction Biofeedback Blueprint of Knowledge and study of human anatomy and physiology.

The Pelvic Muscle Dysfunction Biofeedback areas include: I.

Pelvic Floor Anatomy, Assessment, and Clinical Procedures, III.

Clinical Disorders: Bowel Dysfunction, and V. Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndromes.

* According to RadiologyInfo, ultrasounds are useful in the detection of pelvic abnormalities and can involve techniques known as abdominal ( transabdominal ) ultrasound, vaginal ( transvaginal or endovaginal ) ultrasound in women, and also rectal ( transrectal ) ultrasound in men.

Emergency physicians must have the skills of many specialists — the ability to resuscitate a patient ( critical care medicine ), manage a difficult airway ( anesthesia ), suture a complex laceration ( plastic surgery ), reduce ( set ) a fractured bone or dislocated joint ( orthopedic surgery ), treat a heart attack ( cardiology ), work-up a pregnant patient with vaginal bleeding ( Obstetrics and Gynecology ), stop a bad nosebleed ( ENT ), place a chest tube ( cardiothoracic surgery ), and to conduct and interpret x-rays and ultrasounds ( radiology ).

A woman's menstrual cycle is closely observed, by tracking basal body temperature and changes in vaginal mucus, or using ovulation kits, ultrasounds or blood tests.

Some of these circumstances are contact with human corpses or graves, seminal flux, vaginal flux, menstruation, and contact with people who have become impure from any of these.

Lesbians are not included in a category of frequency of human immunodeficiency virus ( HIV ) transmission, although transmission is possible through vaginal and cervical secretions.

The labia minora ( singular: labium minus ), also known as the inner labia, inner lips, or nymphae, are two flaps of skin on either side of the human vaginal opening, situated between the labia majora ( outer labia, or outer lips ).

Estrogen and other hormones are given to postmenopausal women in order to prevent osteoporosis as well as treat the symptoms of menopause such as hot flushes, vaginal dryness, urinary stress incontinence, chilly sensations, dizziness, fatigue, irritability, and sweating.

However, not all PID is caused solely by STIs ; organisms that are considered normal vaginal flora can be involved, and individual cases of PID can be due to either a single organism or a co-infection of many different species.

Various protective devices are used to avoid contact with blood, vaginal fluid, semen or other contaminant agents ( like skin, hair and shared objects ) during sexual activity.

The vaginal opening is much larger than the urethral opening, and both openings are protected by the labia.

Common signs of vaginal disease are lumps, discharge and sores:

Lumps associated with cancer of the vaginal wall are very rare and the average age of onset is seventy years.

Some vaginal discharges are normal all the time.

The great majority of vaginal discharges are normal or physiological and include blood or menses ( from the uterus ), the most common, and clear fluid either as a result of sexual arousal or secretions from the cervix.

In the developing world a group of parasitic diseases also cause vaginal ulceration such as Leishmaniasis but these are rarely encountered in the west.

* Cancers and Genital dysplasia-" high-risk " HPV types are associated with cancers, ( cervical cancer and can also cause some vulvar, vaginal, penile, anal and some oropharyngeal cancers.

Yeasts of the Candida genus are another group of opportunistic pathogens that causes oral and vaginal infections in humans, known as candidiasis.

The blending of sexual and spiritual is portrayed in Hindu iconography, as seen in ubiquitous phallic and vaginal iconography in Hindu temples and for instance in the Kharjuraho and Konarak medieval temples, where thousands of couples having sex in endless positions, and with the gods, are carved in deep bas-relief.

Effects that are due to low estrogen levels ( for example vaginal atrophy and skin drying ) will continue after the menopause transition years are over ; however, many effects that are caused by the extreme fluctuations in hormone levels ( for example hot flashes and mood changes ) usually disappear or improve significantly once the perimenopause transition is completely over.

* Low-dose prescription vaginal estrogen products such as estrogen creams are generally a safe way to use estrogen topically, to help vaginal thinning and dryness problems ( see vaginal atrophy ) while only minimally increasing the levels of estrogen in the bloodstream.

Also, moderate pain during sexual intercourse and vaginal discharge are symptoms of cervical cancer.
