Neoplasms – Tumor Diseases (C00-D48).
- Cervical or portiocarcinoma (cancer of the cervix or uterine orifice, respectively).
- Endometrial carcinoma (cancer of the uterus).
- Tubal carcinoma (fallopian tube cancer)
- Vaginal carcinoma (cancer of the vagina)
Pregnancy, childbirth and puerperium (O00-O99)
- Abortion – premature termination of pregnancy with a birth weight of the embryo or fetus, respectively, of less than 500 g designated.
- Abortive egg (wind egg) – placenta (placenta) develops, but not the embryo (trophoblast/outer cell layer of a blastocyst and connects it to the uterine wall conditionally capable of development; embryoblast/ pluripotent stem cells located inside the blastocyst from which the embryo develops perishes prematurely)
- Bladder mole – malformation of the placenta (placenta).
- Bleeding in early pregnancy (1st trimester/third trimester; about 20% of all pregnancies).
- Extrauterine pregnancy – implantation of the fertilized egg outside the uterus (womb) such as: Tubargravidity (tubal pregnancy), ovariangravidity (pregnancy in the ovary), peritonealgravidity / abdominalgravidity (abdominal pregnancy) or cervicalgravidity (a pregnancy in the cervix).
- Nidational bleeding – bleeding occurring at the time of implantation of the fertilized egg in the uterus.
Genitourinary system (kidneys, urinary tract – sex organs) (N00-N99).
- Atrophic colpitis (colpitis senilis; dry vagina) – due to the cessation of hormone production (estrogens).
- Cervicitis (inflammation of the cervix).
- Cervical polyp (cervical polyp).
- Endometritis (inflammation of the uterus)
- Glandular-cystic hyperplasia of the endometrium – pathological thickening of the endometrium due to increased estrogen action (eg, follicular persistence).
- Contact bleeding of an ectopic – bleeding after intercourse from an ectopic (easily injured cylindrical epithelium on the cervical surface).
- Myoma uteri (synonym: uterus myomatosus) – enlargement of the uterus due to the presence of one or more myoma nodules (benign muscular growths).
- Ovulation bleeding (harmless bleeding after ovulation, caused by estrogen drop shortly after ovulation).
- Spotting after menopause
- Spotting while taking ovulation inhibitors (hormonal contraception; birth control pills).
- Disruption of follicle maturation with so-called breakthrough bleeding.
- Injured vessel of the vagina (vagina) or the portio (cervix), usually as spotting – for example, after sexual intercourse.
Medication
- Progestogens (chlormadinone acetate, cyproterone acetate, desogestrel, dienogest, drospirenone, gestodene, levonorgestrel, norethisterone, norgestimate, nomegestrol).
- Estrogens (ethinyl estradiol, estradiol).
Further
- Perimenopause – transitional period between premenopause and postmenopause; varying length of years before menopause – about five years – and after menopause (1-2 years).
