Giving Up Your Womb or Appendix - Anatomy And Physiology

By Patrick Hall

With the onward motion of modern applied science in both practice of medicine and scientific discipline, its not startling to hear that we can survive and function quite well without various of our organs. Personally I opt to remain all of mine. There are instances though that removal of an organ can actually spare a life, for illustration, if the organ is unhealthy. Many individuals ask so if you can live and work without numerous of the organs why did we have them in the first place? Furthermore, they have their personalized arenas in our body.

Some organ removals are quite common and some of us have already felt this. There is the tonsil and adenoid removal that seems to be a childhood occurrence rather than in adulthood. The aim of the tonsils is to assist to forbid the invasion of bacteria from coming in through the mouth and nose, where it can sometime go on to do harm to the other areas of the body. The adenoids assist to forbid it from getting in the nose. Sometimes these organs get so full, and became sick from being always inflamed so they cant do their job right. So the most possible solution was to simply get rid of them. In todays practice of medicine this is not done so freely as it at one time was. The human anatomy is being looked at much closer by many scientists.

The appendix is another organ that appears to be normally removed. If you were to talk to an person who has had a bout of appendicitis ,before having the appendix removed, they will tell you they dont miss it all. Acute appendicitis is really very painful. The task of the appendix for numerous years was never clear. After all they were part of the human anatomy and thats all that appeared to matter. Now in recent reports medical scientists consider they may have found the very reason and function of the appendix.

They now trust that it is the appendix job to construct good bacteria that must be found in the gut. This good bacteria is very important to maintaining absolute health and body functions. There are instances when the gut gets exposed of the good bacteria, perhaps through sickness or disease. This is where the appendix comes in, to reproduce the good bacterial so in re enters the gut and gets it back operating ordinarily once more.

Some Other average organ removal, amongst women is the removal of the uterus. At times in this process, the ovaries which are a portion of this may be remain. Then on the other hand, sometimes the ovaries are removed and the uterus left. We all know that these are reproductive organs and once they have processed their aim, its no trouble removing of them. This is not in reality wholly true. This organ play a essential role when it gets to female hormones, and affects the menopause stage a woman gets through.

So you can see that these are numerous of the more average organs that can be rather easily taken out and our bodies still function without them. Then likewise you can learn that they all do serve a very fundamental role. This raises an interesting query. Although we are well without them, would be all that more in even better health, if we still had them? - 15437
