Section 5
The Female Reproductive System
By Boundless
The human female reproductive system contains two main parts: the uterus and the ovaries, which produce a woman's egg cells.
The ovaries are the ovum-producing organs of the internal female reproductive system.
The uterus is the largest and major organ of the female reproductive tract that is the site of fetal growth and is hormonally responsive.
The Fallopian tubes, or oviducts, connect the ovaries to the uterus.
The vagina is the female reproductive tract and has two primary functions: sexual intercourse and childbirth.
The vulva is the external genitalia of the female reproductive tract, situated immediately external to the genital orifice.
The perineum is the region between the genitals and the anus, including the perineal body and surrounding structures.
A mammary gland is an organ in female mammals that produces milk to feed young offspring.
