Malformation [edit]
Malformations can be classified by location of the malformation, such as uterine malformation.
Inflammation and/or infection [edit]
An example is oophoritis.
Classification by location [edit]
For detailed list, see the navbar "Female diseases of the pelvis and genitals" below
Alternatively, female genital diseases can be more strictly classified by location of the disease, which, in turn, can be broadly divided between diseases that affect the female internal genitalia and those that affect the female external genitalia.
