The female reproductive system can be divided into two parts: the external reproductive system and the internal reproductive system.

The external reproductive system includes the labia majora, labia minora, vagina and clitoris.

The internal reproductive system refers to the internal vaginal compartment, uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, and attached pelvic membranes and ligaments. These pelvic organs are located behind the pubic bone.

• The uterus is a pear-shaped organ with a wide uterine body on the top and a narrow cervix extending downward into the vaginal cavity.
• The front of the uterus is the bladder, and the back is the rectum. The two upper corners of the uterus lead to the left and right fallopian tubes respectively.
• The outermost end of the fallopian tube opens in the peritoneal cavity, very close to the ovary.
• The ovary is prolate and oval, attached to the side of the uterus through ligaments. The uterine wall can be divided into three layers, which are the inner membrane, the muscle layer and the outer membrane.

Give birth to Embryos

The uterus provides a place for embryos to grow. First of all, its inner membrane will undergo a series of changes along with changes in body hormones.

Form menstruation

The endometrium gradually develops and thickens under the action of estrogen, and produces some secretions. At this time is the best time to get pregnant, because it can provide enough nutrition for the embryo. If you have not conceived, the thickened endometrium will shrink due to the decrease of female hormones, and eventually fall off, forming menstrual discharge.

Combine with Sperm

There are a large number of pre-formed primordial follicles in the ovary. Usually one follicle matures gradually under the stimulation of hormones every month, and finally ruptures to release the egg. The egg will be adsorbed to the lining of the fallopian tube, waiting for the sperm to travel from the vagina, cervix, and uterus to the fallopian tube. When the sperm and egg are combined, the fertilized egg will then roll into the uterus, where it will formally implant and continue to develop into an embryo.

Childbirth

The myometrium of the uterus will proliferate and develop during pregnancy, and contract during childbirth to expel the fetus.
