The organs of the female reproductive system produce and sustain
the female sex cells (egg cells or ova), transport these cells
to a site where they may be fertilized by sperm, provide a favorable
environment for the developing fetus,
move the fetus to the outside at the end of the development
period, and produce the female sex hormones. The female reproductive
system includes the ovaries, Fallopian tubes, uterus, vagina,
accessory glands, and external genital organs. Select a topic
