Classification by type of disease
Malformation
Malformations can be congenital. They are classified by location of the malformation, such as uterine malformation.
Inflammation and/or infection
An example is oophoritis.
Classification by location
Alternatively, female genital diseases can be more strictly classified by location of the disease, which, in turn, can be broadly divided between diseases that affect the female internal genitalia and those that affect the female external genitalia.
gollark: > The language is unusual in having only one data type: a word, a fixed number of bits, usually chosen to align with the architecture's machine word and of adequate capacity to represent any valid storage address. For many machines of the time, this data type was a 16-bit word. This choice later proved to be a significant problem when BCPL was used on machines in which the smallest addressable item was not a word but a byte or on machines with larger word sizes such as 32-bit or 64-bit.[citation needed]
gollark: SOME people call it Basic Combined Programming Language.
