๐ Topic Summary
The female reproductive system is what makes it possible for women to have babies. It includes organs like the ovaries, which produce eggs, the fallopian tubes, which carry the eggs, the uterus, where a baby grows during pregnancy, and the vagina, which connects the uterus to the outside of the body.
