N97.1: Female infertility of tubal origin
A woman’s inability to conceive over a long period of time despite having unprotected sex is referred to as infertility.
The reason for this is that your egg cells cannot properly reach your uterus through the fallopian tubes.
The two fallopian tubes go to the right and left of the ovaries towards the womb. They are like tubes and they transport the egg cells from the ovaries to the uterus. The egg cells mature in the ovaries.
The uterus or womb sits in the pelvis and is pear-shaped. The narrower part extends downward into the vagina and is called the cervix. When a woman is pregnant, the child grows in her uterus.
