WHOEVER ANSWERS IT WILL GET BRAINST

Many changes happen in female bodies during puberty. For example, about once a month, an egg is released from one of the almond-shaped organs known as the ovaries. This process is called ovulation.

The egg then enters the fallopian tube. For a few days, the egg cell travels through this tube towards the uterus. The lining of this organ, called the endometrium, thickens in preparation for a fertilized egg. If the egg is not fertilized by the male sperm cell, it will leave the body, along with the lining of the uterus and a small amount of blood. This process is called menstruation.

The cervix is located at the bottom of the uterus and has a tiny opening at its centre. This may also be a common site of cancer in female bodies, which a doctor can check for during a PAP test.

The vagina is the female sexual organ through which menstrual blood passes and is the canal that a baby travels down during birth. Some female bodies have a thin fold of skin near the opening to the vagina, which is called the hymen.

The entire outside of the female genitals is called the vulva. There are folds of skin, which are part of this organ, that protect the opening from infection. The outer la.bia are the outermost, and have pubic hair growing on them. The inner la.bia are darker in colour because they are made of erectile tissue. The inner labia come together to form a protective hood around the cli.toris.
