Dysfunctional uterine bleeding

Dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB) refers to abnormal uterine bleeding caused by female endocrine dysfunction, rather than by pregnancy, endometrial tumors, infections, hematological diseases, liver and kidney diseases, thyroid diseases, or reproductive system malformations. This condition is divided into two types: anovulatory and ovulatory. Anovulatory DUB is more common in adolescent and menopausal women, while ovulatory DUB is more common in women of reproductive age. The main symptoms of anovulatory DUB include irregular menstruation, abnormal menstrual volume, duration, and frequency. The main symptoms of ovulatory DUB include a short menstrual cycle, or a normal menstrual cycle with intermenstrual bleeding.

Teratoma

Teratoma is a tumor originating from germ cells. It is named for its unusual appearance, as it may contain components such as hair, teeth, and bone. This condition is common in children and young women. The most common site for teratomas in females is the ovary, while in males, it is most frequently found in the testis. Teratomas are broadly classified into two types: One type is mature teratoma, which is a benign tumor, but has a 2% to 4% chance of transforming into malignancy. The other type is immature teratoma, which is malignant and may recur or metastasize to other sites after surgery. Generally, benign teratomas are more common than malignant ones. Teratomas found in the ovaries of females are mostly benign, while those found in the testes of males are mostly malignant.
