Overview

The female reproductive system consists of the hypothalamic-pituitary unit, the ovaries, the reproductive tract, and the external genitalia. The functions of the female reproductive system are to produce and deliver oocytes, for sexual reproduction, and produce hormones that regulate reproductive function and secondary sex characteristics. Abnormalities in anatomic or physiologic function affect the development and delivery of gametes, and potential fertility. Female factor infertility can be divided into several categories: ovarian, tubal and peritoneal, uterine, cervical, and other. Management of female factors affecting fertility may include medical treatment, surgical intervention, or assisted reproductive techniques. This book provides a comprehensive review of the clinical anatomy and physiology specific to female reproductive system, emphasizing causes and management of female infertility. By developing a clear understanding of what is normal, you will better understand abnormalities affecting female fertility and the mechanisms behind treatment.
