Human female reproductive system

Human female reproductive system

  • Vagina
    The vagina is a muscular and tubular part of the female genital tract, which in humans extends from the vulva to the cervix.
  • Fallopian tube
    The Fallopian tubes, also known as, uterine tubes, and salpinges (singular salpinx), are two very fine tubes lined with ciliated epithelia, leading from the ovaries of female mammals into the uterus, via the uterotubal junction.
  • Vulval vestibule
    The vulval vestibule (or vulvar vestibule) is a part of the vulva between the labia minora into which the urinary meatus (urethral opening) and the vaginal opening open.
  • Labia majora
    The labia majora (singular: labium majus) are two prominent longitudinal cutaneous folds that extend downward and backward from the mons pubis to the perineum.
  • Vaginal fornix
    The fornices of the vagina (sing. fornix of the vagina or fornix vaginae) are the superior portions of the vagina, extending into the recesses created by the vaginal portion of cervix.
  • Zygote
    A zygote (from Greek ζυγωτός zygōtos "joined" or "yoked", from ζυγοῦν zygoun "to join" or "to yoke"), is a eukaryotic cell formed by a fertilization event between two gametes.
  • Egg cell
    The egg cell, or ovum, is the female reproductive cell (gamete) in oogamous organisms.
  • Hymen
    The hymen is a membrane that surrounds or partially covers the external vaginal opening.
  • Oophorectomy
    Oophorectomy /ˌoʊ.
  • Vulva
    The vulva (Latin: wrapper, covering, plural vulvae or vulvas) consists of the external genital organs of a woman.
  • Epoophoron
    The epoophoron or epoöphoron (also called organ of Rosenmüller or the parovarium) is a remnant of the mesonephric tubules that can be found next to the ovary and fallopian tube.
  • Labia minora
    The labia minora (the Latin for small lips, singular: labium minus "small lip"), also known as the inner labia, inner lips, vaginal lips or nymphae, are two flaps of skin on either side of the human vaginal opening in the vulva, situated between the labia majora (the Latin for big lips; also called outer labia, or outer lips).
  • Female reproductive system
    The female reproductive system (or female genital system) is made up of the internal and external sex organs that function in human reproduction.
  • Clitoris
    The clitoris (/ˈklɪtərᵻs/ or /klᵻˈtɔərᵻs/) is a female sex organ present in mammals, ostriches and a limited number of .
  • Ovary
    The ovary (From Latin: ovarium, literally "egg" or "nut") is an ovum-producing reproductive organ, often found in pairs in the female as part of the vertebrate female reproductive system.
  • Cervix
    The cervix or cervix uteri (Latin: neck of the uterus) is the lower part of the uterus in the human female reproductive system.
  • G-spot
    The G-spot, also called the Gräfenberg spot (for German gynecologist Ernst Gräfenberg), is characterized as an erogenous area of the vagina that, when stimulated, may lead to strong sexual arousal, powerful orgasms and potential female ejaculation.
  • Eurotophobia
    Eurotophobia is the fear of female genitalia.
  • Tubal factor infertility
    Tubal factor infertility (TFI) is female infertility caused by diseases, obstructions, damage, scarring, congenital malformations or other factors which impede the descent of a fertilized or unfertilized ovum into the uterus through the Fallopian tubes and prevents a normal pregnancy and full term birth.
  • Salpingitis isthmica nodosa
    Salpingitis isthmica nodosa, also known as diverticulosis of the Fallopian tube, is nodular thickening of the narrow part of the uterine tube, due to inflammation.
