Slow stream
Takes longer to void
incomplete bladder emptying
frequency, urgency
what age is at highest risk for developing testicular cancer - ANS-18-26

urethrogram
What is a secondary cause of erectile dysfunction - ANS-Antidepressants
Secondary = something other than your body causing it

is endometriosis cancerous - ANS-no
three different ways endometriosis presents - ANS-Transportation - backward flow of
tissue during menstruation
Metaplasia - inflammation, hormones change non-endometrial
tissue to endometrial tissue (metaplasia)
Induction - regurgitated endometrial tissue causes chemical reaction converting non-
endo tissue to endometrial tissue
what is a bartholin cyst - ANS-abcess that causes exudate at ductal orifice
