Fallopian Tube

The fallopian tubes are a pair of narrow, muscular tubes that extend from the uterus towards the ovaries in females. The primary function is to transport eggs from the ovaries to the uterus and provide a site for fertilization by sperm. The fallopian tubes consist of the infundibulum, the ampulla, and the isthmus. The fallopian tubes are lined with cilia, tiny hair-like structures that help move the egg toward the uterus. Problems with the fallopian tubes can lead to fertility issues, such as blocked or damaged tubes. In some cases, this can lead to ectopic pregnancy, which occurs when the fertilized egg implants outside the uterus.
