Gynaecography in premature ovarian failure and ovarian dysgenesis. 1969

L Kreel, and J Ginsburg, and M F Green

Gynaecography-the radiological visualization of the internal female genitalia after pneumoperitoneum-is a safe and simple procedure. When taken in conjunction with the clinical and laboratory findings the results of gynaecography are often a sufficient basis for diagnosis and a plan of management in women presenting with menstrual irregularity or infertility.

D010053	Ovary	The reproductive organ (GONADS) in female animals. In vertebrates, the ovary contains two functional parts: the OVARIAN FOLLICLE for the production of female germ cells (OOGENESIS); and the endocrine cells (GRANULOSA CELLS; THECA CELLS; and LUTEAL CELLS) for the production of ESTROGENS and PROGESTERONE.

D006628	Hirsutism	A condition observed in WOMEN and CHILDREN when there is excess coarse body hair of an adult male distribution pattern, such as facial and chest areas. It is the result of elevated ANDROGENS from the OVARIES, the ADRENAL GLANDS, or exogenous sources. The concept does not include HYPERTRICHOSIS, which is an androgen-independent excessive hair growth.
