Explore the female reproductive system, including ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus with endometrium and myometrium, cervix, vagina, external genitalia, mammary glands, and implantation.
Explore the menstrual cycle in a 28–29 day rhythm, detailing uterine endometrium changes, four phases, ovulation around day 14, and the hormonal regulation by estrogen, progesterone, LH, and FSH.
Explore how the blastocyst implants in the endometrium, forms the placenta via chorionic villi and the umbilical cord, and how hormones like hCG, progesterone, estrogen, and relaxin guide pregnancy.
Explore parturition and lactation: from mucus plug and water breaks to contractions and fetal ejection reflex, placenta signaling, and early lactation with colostrum rich in immunoglobulin A.
Description
Humans are sexually reproducing and viviparous. The reproductive events in humans include formation of gametes (gametogenesis), i.e., sperms in males and ovum in females, transfer of sperms into the female genital tract (insemination) and fusion of male and female gametes (fertilisation) leading to formation of zygote. This is followed by formation and development of blastocyst and its attachment to the uterine wall (implantation),
embryonic development (gestation) and delivery of the baby (parturition). You have learnt that these reproductive events occur after puberty. There are remarkable differences between the reproductive events in the male and in the female, for example, sperm formation continues even in old men, but formation of ovum ceases in women around the age of fifty years. Let us examine the male and female reproductive systems in human.
