Key concepts

3 concepts

  1. 1

    The female reproductive system is more concerned with passing on alleles and the future of the human species than the individual's survival.

  2. 2

    The ground control of the female reproductive anatomy, where the orders are given, are the ovaries, which produce and release female gametes and sex hormones like estrogen and progesterone.

  3. 3

    The menstrual cycle is what happens in the uterus to prepare for a fertilized egg, while the ovarian cycle is all about the maturation of the follicle and egg, and it’s actually what drives the menstrual cycle.
