    Study Notes

    Female Reproductive System

    • Fimbriae are finger-like projections at the end of the fallopian tubes, responsible for capturing the ovulated egg from the ovary and guiding it into the tube.

    Uterus Structure

    • The fundus is the upper, curved part of the uterus, located above the opening of the fallopian tubes.

    Supporting Structures

    • The broad ligament is a fold of peritoneum that supports the uterus and other pelvic structures, attaching them to the pelvis and providing stability.

    Vaginal Anatomy

    • The hymen is a thin membrane that partially closes the vagina until it is ruptured, often during the first sexual intercourse.

    Ovarian Support

    • Suspensory ligaments are fibrous bands that attach the ovary to the pelvic wall, providing support and maintaining the ovary's position in the pelvis.
