[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Different diseases of the female reproductive system can affect the possibility of having children, if desired, or even put the woman’s life at risk.

What is the female reproductive system\u2019s function?<\/h2>\n

From birth, a girl has all the eggs she will have throughout her life, although these cannot become babies until puberty begins, at which time the hormones released in the body will cause the ovaries\u2019 development.<\/p>\n

Once the ovaries begin to develop, they will generate estrogen which will result in the development of the entire female reproductive system.<\/p>\n

Female reproductive system diseases are considered to be all those that occur in the vagina, cervix and uterus, breasts, or ovaries.<\/p>\n

This type of diseases can have different origins, ranging from poor hygiene, the existence of fungi, or even genetic or hereditary factors. Although female reproductive system diseases can arise at any stage of life, it is very common that, after the age of 40, the moment in which they go through menopause, they appear more frequently.<\/p>\n
