Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The female primary reproductive parts aremainly considered as an ovary. It is a ductless gland which is situated on each side of the lower abdomen part of the body The integuments that help in membrane support and conduction are situated in the peritoneal cavity of the pelvis. The germinal cells of the ovaryare carried into graffianfollicle by process of oogenesis

b. the start of menstruation, which breaks down the blood vessels and tissues formed during the follicular stage
c. the maintenance of the corpus luteum to continue producing low levels of progesterone and estrogen
