The male and female reproductive systems consist of the gonads,
testes or ovaries; the reproductive tract; the external genitalia;
and the hypothalamic-pituitary unit. The functions of the
reproductive system are to produce and deliver gametes, spermatozoa
or oocytes, for sexual reproduction; and produce hormones that
regulate reproductive function and secondary sex characteristics.
Abnormalities in anatomic or physiologic function affect the
development and delivery of gametes, and potential fertility. This
book provides a comprehensive review of the anatomy and physiology
specific to reproduction, emphasizing developmental and hormonal
processes of gamete production, fertilization, implantation, and
embryonic development. This review has been designed to meet the
educational needs of physicians and allied health professionals who
care for couples experiencing infertility. By developing a clear
understanding of what is normal, you will better understand
abnormalities affecting reproduction and the mechanisms behind
treatment.
