FINAL YEAR MSE (N)

2. Introduction
•The reproductive organs in
female are concerned with
copulation,fertilization,growth
and development of the fetus
and child birth.

3. Functions of Female reproductive
system
1. Oogenesis
2. Copulation
3. Hormone
production

4. 4.Menstruation

5. 5. Provide sites
for Egg
Fertilization
Implantation
Development.

6. Female Reproductive System
1.External genital organs.
2.Internal genital organs.
3.Accessory reproductive
organs.

7. External genitalia
1.Mons pubis.
2.Labia
majora.
3.Labia
minora
4.clitoris.
5.Hymen .
6.Vestibular
gland.

8. Internal organs
• Vagina
• Uterus
• Two fallopian
tubes
• Two ovaries

9. Vagina
It is an elastic
fibro-muscular
tube and
membranous
tissue about 8 to
10 cm long.

10. To allow discharge
of the menstrual
flow.
Functions of vagina

11. •As the female
organs of
coitus.
Functions of vagina

12. •To allow passage
of the fetus from
the uterus.
Functions of vagina

13. •The uterus is a
hollow, pear
shaped muscular
organ.
Uterus

14. •The uterus measures
about 7.5cm long ,
5cm wide, 2.5 cm
thick and weight
about 30 – 40 gm.
Uterus

15. I.Fundus
II. Body
III. Cervix
Parts of uterus

16. Layers of uterus
Perimetrium
Myometrium
Endometrium

17. Functions of uterus
Menstruation -Process
of shedding the lining
of the uterus.

19. Menstrual Period
•If the ovum is not
fertilized it doesn’t
attach to the
endometrium.
•Muscles of the uterus
contract  lining breaks
down (“cramps”)
•Lining passes through
the cervix into the
vagina and out of the
vaginal opening

22. Pregnancy -the uterus
support and allows the
fetus to grow.
Functions of uterus

23. Labor and birth-the
uterine muscles
contract and the cervix
dilates during labor .
Functions of uterus

24. FALLOPIAN TUBES
•The Fallopian tubes,
also known as, uterine
tubes, and salpinges ,
are two very fine tubes.
•Length 10 to 11 .5 cm long.
•Its divided into 4 parts.

25. Parts :
1) Interstitial
part
2)Isthmus
3) Ampulla
4)Infundibulum

26. 1) Interstitial :It is 1.25 cm
long and lies within the
wall of the uterus.
2)Isthmus :Upper outer
angle ,its narrow part of the
tube,about 2-3 cm in length .
3) Ampulla :Middle
portion,its wider part about 5
cm in length.fertilization
occurs in the ampulla.
PARTS OF FALLOPIAN TUBES

27. 4) Infundibulum
:Terminal portion , its
funnel shaped.
The infundibulum
ends in finger like
projection called
fimbriae.
PARTS OF FALLOPIAN TUBES

28. Functions
Gamete transport
(ovum and sperm).
Fertilization
Transport of
fertilized and
unfertilized ovum to
the uterus.

29. OVARY
•The ovaries are
almond shaped
gland,placed on each
side of the uterus.
•They are 2.5 to 3.5
cm long-2 cm wide,1
cm thick.

30. Structure of the ovary
•Germinal
epithelium
• Tunica albuginea
• Medulla
• Ovarian follicles
• Mature graffian
follicle
• corpus luteum

32. Functions of ovary
1)They produce oocytes
(eggs) for fertilization .
2) They produce hormones,
oestrogen and progesterone.
3)Ovulation.

33. Accessory reproductive organs
Breast :
Breast is a mass
of glandular,
fatty and
connective
tissue.

34. Structure of the Breast
•Lobules
• Lactiferous Duct
• Fatty and
connective
tissue
•Areola
•Nipple

35. The breast is made up of:
•Lobules – glands that produce
milk.Each breast has 15 to 20 lobes
•Ducts – Tubes that carry milk
from the lobules to the nipple.

36. •Fatty and connective tissue –
Surrounds and protects the ducts
and lobules .
•Areola – Circular area around
the nipple .
•Nipple – Centre of the
areola,the nipple contains
about 15 to 20 lactiferous ducts.

37. Function of the
breast
•
Lactation

38. Summary
Structure and function of the
• External genitalia
• Internal genitalia
Vagina
Uterus
Ovaries
Fallopian tubes
Structure and of breast.
