Some Medical Terms

Since I was invited to have a Pap Smear Test a little while ago, I received a Finnish booklet on Pap Smear, so I learnt some new medical terms.
Irtosolukoe (Papa-koe) = Pap Smear Test
Verenvuoto = Bleeding (the basic form of "veren" is "veri")
Näyte = sample
Otto = taking = the same as "ottaminen"
Tumor = kasvain
Kohtu = womb
Kohdunkaulan syöpä = cervical cancer
Kuukautiset = menstruation / period
Viimeisten kuukautisten alkamispäivämäärä = the first day of the last period
Tulos = result
Voinko saada ultraäänitestin? = Can I have an ultrasound?
