👉 The term "epapophysial" in medical terminology refers to a structure within the female reproductive system, specifically in the anterior abdominal wall. It is located behind the uterus and includes a large sac called the epididymis. Epapyesia is a condition where there is an abnormal increase in fluid within the epididymis, which can cause pain or discomfort during sexual intercourse. This condition typically occurs in women who are trying to conceive or have previously undergone surgery on the reproductive system.
