Question

a reproductive disorder in which uterine tissue migrates and grows in the ovaries or fallopian tubes is called
currently selected: b
a toxic shock syndrome.
b pelvic inflammatory disease.
c endometriosis.
d vaginitis.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Toxic shock syndrome is caused by bacterial toxins (often from Staphylococcus aureus), not related to uterine tissue migration.
• Option B: Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is an infection of the female reproductive organs, usually from sexually transmitted bacteria, not about uterine tissue growth outside the uterus.
• Option C: Endometriosis is defined as the condition where uterine (endometrial) tissue grows outside the uterus, such as in the ovaries or fallopian tubes.
• Option D: Vaginitis is an inflammation of the vagina, typically due to infection, and not related to uterine tissue migration.

So the correct answer is C as it matches the description of the reproductive disorder with uterine tissue migration.

Answer:

C. endometriosis.
