- Uterine Fibroids: Benign growths in the uterus that can cause symptoms like heavy menstrual bleeding and pelvic pain. - Ovarian Cysts: Fluid-filled sacs in the ovaries that may be benign or malignant. - Endometriosis: A condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus. - Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID): An infection of the female reproductive organs. - Prostate Enlargement: A condition in men where the prostate gland is enlarged, possibly indicating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) or prostate cancer.
