Uterous

The uterus has three major functions: to prepare a bed for a fertilized ovum, to nourish the developing embryo during pregnancy, and to expel the fetus. Shaped like an upside-down pear, and tilted forwards, it lies within the pelvis and is held in place, along with its two extensions, the Fallopian tubes, by ligaments and folds of the peritoneum. The cervix forms the lower third, connected by a narrow isthmus to the main muscular body of the uterus. The non-pregnant uterus weighs 45–60 g and is 7–8 cm long but its weight increases more than ten-fold by the end of pregnancy.

Urinary tract bleeding

Urinary bleeding is due to infection on the urinary tract and it is one of the worst symptoms of bladder infections. On one hand, it is an indication of infection in the urethra when blood passes out before normal urine does. On the other hand, if urine comes out with blood from the start to the end, then it indicates the possibility that there is an infection in the kidneys or bladders. At times, the symptoms of urinary tract bleeding can be confused with the symptoms of genital herpes as they are rather similar in nature.
