The document summarizes the key parts and functions of the female reproductive system. It discusses the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, vagina, and other organs. It explains that the system produces eggs and transports them to the uterus, and can facilitate implantation and pregnancy. If implantation does not occur, the system menstruates. The document also lists common diseases like chlamydia, gonorrhea, and HIV that can affect the reproductive system.

2. Introduction
• The process by which organisms make more organisms
like themselves .
• The Female Reproductive System is designed to carry
out several functions:
 produces the female egg cells
- transport the ova to the site of
fertilization
 implant into the walls of the uterus
• If fertilization and/or implantation does not take
place, the system is designed to menstruate (the
monthly shedding of the uterine lining)
• The female reproductive system produces female sex
hormones that maintain the reproductive cycle.

3. PARTS

4. FUNCTIONS
• Ovary- reproductive organ in which ova or eggs are produced
• Fallopian tube- pair of tubes along which eggs travel from the
ovaries to the uterus.
• Uterus- in the lower body of a woman where offspring are
conceived and in which they gestate before birth; the womb.
• Bladder- a membranous sac in humans, in which urine is
collected for excretion.
• Urethra-the duct by which urine is conveyed out of the body
from the bladder
• Vagina- the muscular tube leading from the external genitals
to the cervix of the uterus in women.
• Clitoris- a small sensitive and erectile part of the female
genitals at the anterior end of the vulva.
• Cervix- the narrow neck like passage forming the lower end of
the uterus

5. • Labia Minora- the smaller inner folds of the vulva.
• Labia Majora- the larger outer folds of the vulva.
• Hymen- a membrane that partially closes the opening of
the vagina and whose presence is traditionally taken to
be a mark of virginity.
• Mons Pubis-the rounded mass of fatty tissue lying over
the joint of the pubic bones, in women typically more
prominent and also called the mons veneris.
• Perineum-the area between the anus and the scrotum or
or vulva.
• Posterior Fourchet-The splitting occurs when the vulva
stretches, particularly during sexual intercourse

6. DISEASES
• Chlamydia- a very small parasitic bacterium that, like a virus, requires the
biochemical mechanisms of another cell in order to reproduce
• Gonorrhea- a venereal disease involving inflammatory discharge from the
urethra or vagina.
• Genital herpes-a disease characterized by blisters in the genital area, caused
by a variety of the herpes simplex virus.
• Genital warts- a small growth occurring in the anal or genital areas, caused by
a virus that is spread esp. by sexual contact.
• Syphilis-a chronic bacterial disease that is contracted chiefly by infection
during sexual intercourse, but also congenitally by infection of a developing
fetus.
• HIV-The human immunodeficiency virus is a lentivirus that causes the
acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
• Vaginitis-inflammation of the vagina.
