Summary Introduction

The uterus is a female secondary sex organ or reproductive organ that responds to hormones. It is pear-shaped and located in the pelvic region, between the urinary bladder and rectum. The fertilized egg is attached to the endometrial layer of the uterine wall which gets thicker during ovulation. Uterus provides nutrition to the egg so that it can form the embryo and finally to a fetus. But the endometrium sheds if the egg is unfertilized.
