What is Rocitans' syndrome?

The

rocitans syndrome, which is commonly known as Mayer-Groad-Korite-Hauser syndrome, is a congenital defect where women can be born with non-formulated or partially formed reproductive organs. The uterus, vagina and uterine cervix are generally areas where problems occur, and the uterus is more common. Women with Rokitansky syndrome have normal female chromosomes and usually have fully functional ovaries. Often it is often impossible to say that something is wrong when looking at them externally, so it is common for a disorder to be undiagnosed until the suffering from menstruation as teenagers.

It is assumed that this syndrome occurs in approximately one of each 5,000 women, although this number is relatively uncertain and doctors are not sure of the reliability of available statistics. There are many different degrees of rocitan syndrome. For example, women can be born without the uterus, or they can only have less than a normal uterus. Cases where the Woman is missing the uterus, the uterus and the vagina are considered fromand rare, while it is generally more common to affect one or two organs.

In most cases, rokitan syndrome is not generally dangerous and treatment is not always necessary. There are several cases where the disorder can be accompanied by malformed kidneys and sometimes heart problems and these problems may require further procedures or lifestyle changes. Another case where women may want treatment is if they are born without full vagina or no vagina at all. There are several procedures for medically creating a vagina and some women decide to take advantage of them.

The cause of the rocitan syndrome is somewhat mysterious. Everything that doctors are sure is that something is happening in the female body at the beginning of her pregnancy, which prevents the female organs to fully form. The original theory was such that it was a brightly caused caused by some kind of chemical exposure during pregnancy, but research was generally an ungoEssential.

Many experts feel that there may be a genetic component, but it is also assumed that it is partially environmental. In most cases, there is no family history of Rokitan syndrome, but several families have been identified where the failure is common. Doctors think that in these cases a purely genetic cause is more likely, but the real responsible gene has not been identified. It is potentially possible that genetic disorder is with the mother's reproductive system, which can cause a better chance of problems with fetal development during pregnancy.
