| Burrowing of the fertilized egg into the endometrium lining of the uterus | Implantation |
| The bacteria from gonnorhea and other infections can spread to the peritoneal cavity unless treated promptly the infection condition can cause | Pelvic inflammatory disease |
| Overgrowth of the prostate causing strangulation of the urethra is called | Hypertrophy |
