THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE
SYSTEM
The female reproductive system is composed
of the gonads, called ovaries, and the female
reproductive tract, which includes the
oviducts, uterus, cervix, vagina, and
external genitalia.
Female reproductive physiology is more
complex than male reproductive physiology.
Unlike the continuous sperm production and
essentially constant testosterone secretion
characteristic of the male, release of ova is
intermittent, and secretion of female sex
hormones displays wide cyclic swings.
Ovarium
the ovary, like the testis, serves several functions:
oogenesis, the production of gametes during the fetal
period;
Maturation of the oocyte;
expulsion of the mature oocyte (ovulation); and
secretion of the female sex steroid hormones (estrogen
and progesterone), as well as the protein hormone inhibin.
Before ovulation, the maturation of the oocyte
and endocrine functions of the ovaries take
place in a single structure, the follicle.
After ovulation, the follicle, now without an egg,
differentiates into a corpus luteum

Fertilization and Early
Development
For fertilization to occur, the introduction of sperm into the female
reproductive tract must occur between 5 days before and 1–2
days after ovulation.
This is because the sperm, following their ejaculation into the
vagina, remain capable of fertilizing an egg for up to 4 to 6 days,
and the ovulated egg remains viable for only 24 to 48 h.
