常见误用提醒
使用 ovarian：She has a problem in her ovary. → She has a problem with her ovarian health. (错误：'ovary' 是名词，指卵巢器官本身；'ovarian' 是形容词，应修饰名词如 'health' 或 'function'。正确用法中，'ovarian health' 更符合医学描述习惯。)
使用 ovarian：The ovarian is important for reproduction. → The ovaries are important for reproduction. (错误：'ovarian' 是形容词，不能单独作为主语；应用名词 'ovaries'（卵巢的复数形式）。正确用法中，使用 'ovaries' 来指代器官。)
使用 uterine：She has a problem with her uterus, it's uterine. → She has a uterine problem. (错误用法中重复了'uterus'和'uterine'，显得冗余。正确用法应直接用'uterine'修饰'problem'，简洁明了。)
