Female genital organs Female genital organs - - overview overview Uterine tube Uterus Ovary Vagina Clitoris Vestibule of vagina Labium major Labium minor
Ovary Ovary Function: production of ovum secretion of female sex hormones: estrogen and progesterone (menstrual cycle)
Follicle maturation Follicle maturation Primary oocytes remain in the first meiotic division until puberty. End of the first meiotic division: ovulation End of the second meiotic division: fertilization Follicular epithelial cells: Granulosa cells Theca cells Follicle maturation is influenced by FSH (follicule- stimulating hormone) from the hypophisis (pituitary gland). After ovulation (14th days of the menstruatic cycle) under the influence of LH (luteinizing hormone) the follicular epithelium transform into a corpus luteum and begins to secrete progesteron.

Uterine tube Uterine tube Isthmus Isthmus Ampulla Ampulla Infundibulum Infundibulum Mesosalpinx Mesosalpinx Function: transport of ovum from ovary to uterus kinocilia peristaltic muscular activity
