R87.5: Abnormal findings in specimens from female genital organs : abnormal microbiological findings
The internal female genital organs include the uterus, the fallopian tubes and ovaries. The vagina is also one of the internal genital organs and goes from the uterus to the outside of the body. The external female genital organs include the labia, the clitoris and the skin around the vagina. Fluid from your uterus or vagina may have been examined, for example.
The sample of the examined fluid normally only contains a certain amount of different substances. These substances include certain cells and certain proteins, for example. Sometimes you can also detect substances or pathogens in the sample that are not normally found there.
Pathogens have been detected in your sample. Pathogens can cause inflammation in the body, for example.
