Female Reproductive Organ
The female reproductive organ system is primarily designed for reproduction and includes several key structures. The main components are the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, and vagina. The ovaries produce eggs and hormones, while the fallopian tubes transport the eggs to the uterus, where a fertilized egg can develop into a fetus. The vagina serves as the birth canal and the passage for menstrual fluid.
Hormonal regulation plays a crucial role in the functioning of these organs. The menstrual cycle is a monthly process that prepares the body for potential pregnancy. If fertilization does not occur, the lining of the uterus sheds, resulting in menstruation.
