    GlossaryOvarian Function

    involves egg production and hormone secretion in females

    Ovarian function refers to the activities and processes carried out by the ovaries, which are essential reproductive organs in females. These functions include the production of eggs (oocytes) for fertilization, and the secretion of hormones such as estrogen and progesterone, which regulate the menstrual cycle, support pregnancy, and influence secondary sexual characteristics. Proper ovarian function is crucial for fertility and overall hormonal balance.
