Thecervix (from Latin "neck") is the lower, narrow portion of the uterus where it joins with the
top end of the vagina. Where they join together forms an almost 90 degree curve. It is cylindrical
or conical in shape and protrudes through the upper anterior vaginal wall. Approximately half its
length is visible with appropriate medical equipment; the remainder lies above the vagina beyond view. It is occasionally
called "cervix uteri", or "neck of the uterus". During menstruation, the cervix stretches open slightly to allow the
endometrium to be shed. This stretching is believed to be part of the cramping pain that many women experience.
Evidence for this is given by the fact that some women's cramps subside or disappear after their first vaginal birth
because the cervical opening has widened. The portion projecting into the vagina is referred to as the portio vaginalis
orectocervix. On average, the ectocervix is three cm long and two and a half cm wide. It has a convex, elliptical surface
and is divided into anterior and posterior lips. The ectocervix's opening is called the external os. The size and shape of the
external os and the ectocervix varies widely with age, hormonal state, and whether the woman has had a vaginal birth. In
women who have not had a vaginal birth the external os appears as a small, circular opening. In women who have had a
vaginal birth, the ectocervix appears bulkier and the external os appears wider, more slit-like and gaping. The
passageway between the external os and the uterine cavity is referred to as the endocervical canal. It varies widely in
length and width, along with the cervix overall. Flattened anterior to posterior, the endocervical canal measures seven to
eight mm at its widest in reproductive-aged women. The endocervical canal terminates at the internal os which is the
opening of the cervix inside the uterine cavity. During childbirth, contractions of the uterus will dilate the cervix up to 10 cm
in diameter to allow the child to pass through. During orgasm, the cervix convulses and the external os dilates. The
uterus is shaped like an upside-down pear, with a thick lining and muscular walls. Located near the floor of the pelvic
cavity, it is hollow to allow a blastocyte, or fertilized egg, to implant and grow. It also allows for the inner lining of the
uterus to build up until a fertilized egg is implanted, or it is sloughed off during menses. The uterus contains some of the
strongest muscles in the female body. These muscles are able to expand and contract to accommodate a growing fetus
and then help push the baby out during labor. These muscles also contract rhythmically during an orgasm in a wave like
action. It is thought that this is to help push or guide the sperm up the uterus to the fallopian tubes where fertilization may
be possible. The uterus is only about three inches long and two inches wide, but during pregnancy it changes rapidly and
dramatically. The top rim of the uterus is called the fundus and is a landmark for many doctors to track the progress of a
pregnancy. The uterine cavity refers to the fundus of the uterus and the body of the uterus. Helping support the uterus are
ligaments that attach from the body of the uterus to the pelvic wall and abdominal wall. During pregnancy the ligaments
prolapse due to the growing uterus, but retract after childbirth. In some cases after menopause, they may lose elasticity
and uterine prolapse may occur. This can be fixed with surgery. Some problems of the uterus include uterine fibroids,
pelvic pain (including endometriosis, adenomyosis), pelvic relaxation (or prolapse), heavy or abnormal menstrual
bleeding, and cancer. It is only after all alternative options have been considered that surgery is recommended in these
cases. This surgery is called hysterectomy. Hysterectomy is the removal of the uterus, and may include the removal of
one or both of the ovaries. Once performed it is irreversible. After a hysterectomy, many women begin a form of alternate
hormone therapy due to the lack of ovaries and hormone production. At the upper corners of the uterus are the fallopian
tubes. There are two fallopian tubes, also called the uterine tubes or the oviducts. Each fallopian tube attaches to a side of
the uterus and connects to an ovary. They are positioned between the ligaments that support the uterus. The fallopian
tubes are about four inches long and about as wide as a piece of spaghetti. Within each tube is a tiny passageway no
wider than a sewing needle. At the other end of each fallopian tube is a fringed area that looks like a funnel. This fringed
area, called the infundibulum, lies close to the ovary, but is not attached. The ovaries alternately release an egg.
When an ovary does ovulate, or release an egg, it is swept into the lumen of the fallopian tube by the frimbriae.
Once the egg is in the fallopian tube, tiny hairs in the tube's lining help push it down the narrow passageway toward the
uterus. The oocyte, or developing egg cell, takes four to five days to travel down the length of the fallopian tube. If enough
sperm are ejaculated during sexual intercourse and there is an oocyte in the fallopian tube, fertilization will occur. After
fertilization occurs, the zygote, or fertilized egg, will continue down to the uterus and implant itself in the uterine wall where it
will grow and develop. If a zygote doesn't move down to the uterus and implants itself in the fallopian tube, it is called a
ectopic or tubal pregnancy. If this occurs, the pregnancy will need to be terminated to prevent permanent damage to the
fallopian tube, possible hemorrhage and possible death of the mother.
Mammary glands are the organs that produce milk for the sustenance of a baby. These exocrine glands are enlarged
and modified sweat glands. The basic components of the mammary gland are the alveoli (hollow cavities, a few
millimeters large) lined with milk-secreting epithelial cells and surrounded by myoepithelial cells. These alveoli join up to
form groups known as lobules, and each lobule has a lactiferous duct that drains into openings in the nipple. The
myoepithelial cells can contract, similar to muscle cells, and thereby push the milk from the alveoli through the lactiferous
ducts towards the nipple, where it collects in widenings (sinuses) of the ducts. A suckling baby essentially squeezes the
milk out of these sinuses. The development of mammary glands is controlled by hormones. The mammary glands exist in
both sexes, but they are rudimentary until puberty when - in response to ovarian hormones - they begin to develop in the
female. Estrogen promotes formation, while testosterone inhibits it. At the time of birth, the baby has lactiferous ducts but
no alveoli. Little branching occurs before puberty when ovarian estrogens stimulate branching differentiation of the ducts
into spherical masses of cells that will become alveoli. True secretory alveoli only develop in pregnancy, where rising
levels of estrogen and progesterone cause further branching and differentiation of the duct cells, together with an increase
in adipose tissue and a richer blood flow. Colostrum is secreted in late pregnancy and for the first few days after giving
birth. True milk secretion (lactation) begins a few days later due to a reduction in circulating progesterone and the
presence of the hormone prolactin. The suckling of the baby causes the release of the hormone oxytocin which stimulates
contraction of the myoepithelial cells. The cells of mammary glands can easily be induced to grow and multiply by
hormones. If this growth runs out of control, cancer results. Almost all instances of breast cancer originate in the
lobules or ducts of the mammary glands.

Indication: Cefazolin is mainly used to treat bacterial infections of the skin. It can also be used to treat moderately severe bacterial infections
involving the lung, bone, joint, stomach, blood, heart valve, and urinary tract. It is clinically effective against infections caused by staphylococci and
streptococci of Gram-positive bacteria. These organisms are common on normal human skin. Resistance to cefazolin is seen in several species of
bacteria.
