Abnormality of the Genitourinary System

Understanding reproductive related symptoms and features.

Symptoms may affect multiple parts of the body. Understanding which part of the body a symptom affects, can help us to better understand the potential underlying causes of a symptom, including a rare disease or genetic syndrome.

The reproductive system is made up of the organs of the body necessary for the reproductive process.

In a female these organs include the vagina, uterus, fallopian tubes, and the ovaries.
In a male these organs include the penis, testes, spermatic ducts, sex glands and the scrotum.

Symptoms affecting the reproductive system are generally congenital, present at birth, but may develop later.

Symptoms relating to the organs of the reproductive system may affect their structure and function including their ability to reproduce, other times they may simply affect the shape or appearance of the organ, without any impact on fertility.

What is abnormality of the genitourinary system?

Any abnormality within the genital or urinary systems and any of their parts, whether the abnormality is congenital, developmental, or acquired. A congenital absence of part of the genital or urinary structures, an abnormally developed part of these systems, abnormal growth or lack of growth in either or both systems, or a tendency to poor function or persistent infection can be a marker for certain diseases or syndromes. This diagnosis also depends on other accompanying features.

What should I do next?

In some instances, abnormality of the genitourinary system may be one of the features of a rare disease or genetic syndrome. In this case fast, targeted genetic analysis can give you a more accurate diagnosis.
