   The female reproductive system is made up of internal (inside the pelvis) and external (outside the pelvis) sexual organs. The internal sex organs, specifically known as the female sex organs, include the vagina (pelvic-genital tract), ovaries, cervix, uterus and fallopian tubes. The external sexual organs include the parts that form the vulva.

   Ovaries : The ovaries produce eggs. There are 2 of them, buried deep in the woman's pelvis, on either side of the uterus, near the end of the fallopian tubes. At birth, the ovaries contain all the eggs they will have for life. Each month, during ovulation, an ovary releases a mature egg. This then travels down the fallopian tube towards the uterus. If the egg is fertilised by a sperm (from the male reproductive system) in the fallopian tube, it attaches itself to the lining of the uterus (endometrium). This is called implantation. Once implanted, the fertilised egg begins to develop in the uterus to become an embryo, and then a foetus.

   Uterus : The uterus, sometimes also called the womb, is the part of the female reproductive system where a baby can develop. It is located above the vagina, between the bladder and the rectum. It is about 7 cm long and 5 cm wide (at its widest). The uterus is held in place in the pelvis by several ligaments.

   Every month, except during pregnancy or after the menopause, the lining of the uterus grows and thickens in preparation for pregnancy.

   Cervix : The cervix is the lower, narrow part of the uterus. It connects the main body of the uterus to the vagina.

   Part of the lining of the cervix contains glands that make and release mucus. For most of the menstrual cycle and during pregnancy, this mucus is thick and prevents sperm from entering the uterus. This thick mucus also helps to protect the uterus and the upper female reproductive organs from harmful bacteria.

   During ovulation, the mucus changes and becomes thinner, allowing sperm to pass through the cervix into the uterus.

   During childbirth, the cervix widens, or dilates, to allow the baby to pass through the birth canal.

   Vagina: The vagina is a passageway that connects the cervix (the opening of the uterus) to the outside of the body. It is also known as the pelvic-genital tract. The vagina contains nerves, blood vessels and lymphatic vessels. Glands located in the cervix and near the vaginal orifice secrete a mucus that keeps the mucous membrane moist.

   The walls of the vagina are usually collapsed and in contact with each other. Their many folds allow the vagina to expand during intercourse or childbirth.

   Vulva : The vulva is the external sexual organ that opens into the vagina. It protects the internal sexual organs and provides sexual pleasure.

   The vulva is made up of several organs.

   The labia majora are the 2 outer folds of skin that resemble lips. They cover and protect the other external organs. During sexual stimulation, the labia majora may swell with blood.

   The labia minora are the 2 smallest folds of skin just inside the labia majora. They cover the openings of the vagina and the urethra.

   The clitoris is a small organ located in front of the labia minora. It has many nerve endings. When you are sexually aroused, the clitoris becomes gorged with blood (erection).

   The urethral orifice is the opening to the urethra. The urethra is the tube that leaves the bladder and allows urine to be evacuated from the body. The urethral orifice is located just below the clitoris.

   The vaginal orifice is the opening to the vagina. The vagina is the muscular canal that leads to the cervix.

   Bartholin's glands are located just inside the vulva. They produce a thick liquid used as a lubricant during intercourse.

   The perineum is the space between the vulva and the anus.

   The anus is the opening at the lower end of the rectum (the last part of the large intestine) through which waste (faeces) is evacuated from the body.

   When you become sexually aroused, your vulva becomes sensitive to stimulation and your nervous system sends pleasure signals to your brain. These signals can produce an orgasm. At the moment of orgasm, the muscles surrounding the sexual organs contract. The sources of pleasure are different for each person. You can have an orgasm during intercourse, but you can also have one by touching your sexual organs, such as the clitoris and inner lips.
