Introduction:
The uterus is a minor sex organ involved in reproduction, and it is present in humans and other mammals. It is pear shaped and is localized in the pelvic zone.

During fertilization, if the sperm is present, the fallopian tube transfers the fertilized egg near the womb for implantation.
