1. Ectopic pregnancy
Ectopic pregnancy is pregnancy occurring outside the uterus, commonly in the fallopian
tube.
2. Abruption placenta
Abruption placent is premature separation of the placenta from the uterine wall.
3. Abortion
Abortion is the end of a pregnancy before viability of the fetus. The termination of the
process of gestation after the time when the zygote attaches it self to the uterine wall
(about 14 days after conception), but before the fetus is possibly capable of surviving on
its own. (currently 23 to 28 weeks from conception).
4. Preeclampsia
Preeclampsia is abnormal condition encountered during pregnancy or shortly after
delivery, characterized by high blood pressure, edema, and proteinuria, and with no
convulsions or coma.
5. Placenta previa
Placenta previa is abnormally low implantation of the placenta on the uterine wall.
(Dilatation can cause separation of the placenta from the uterine wall, resulting in
bleeding. With severe hemorrhage, a cesarean section may be necessary to save the
mother's life ).
6. Unborn children
Unborn children is the developing young in the uterus, specifically the unborn offspring
in the postembryonic period, in humans from nine weeks after fertilization until birth.
7. Sperm production
The production of sperm is a complex process and requires normal functioning of the
testicles (testes) as well as the hypothalamus and pituitary glands organs in your brain
that produce hormones that trigger sperm production. Once sperm are produced in the

1
 testicles, delicate tubes transport them until they mix with semen and are ejaculated out
of the penis. Problems with any of these systems can affect sperm production.
8. Precursors of sperm
