About this deal
What is the difference between the male and female reproductive systems? How do these differences develop? The external genitalia (vulva) are the organs of the female reproductive system located in the perineum, outside the pelvis. They include the following: Both men’s and women’s genitalia have the same origins, stemming from the same embryonic tissue. However, these organs ultimately develop in unique ways, take distinct shapes, and serve different functions depending on a person’s sex.
Nagoski explains that the outer labia, or “lips,” are fleshy and hairy folds of skin around the vaginal opening. (Shortform note: The function of the outer labia is to protect the vagina—and therefore internal organs connected to the vagina like the ovaries, urethra, and clitoris—from damage.) The uterus is located in the middle of the pelvic cavity. This muscular sac will house the fetus during pregnancy. Chapter 27: The reproductive system. Anatomy and physiology of the female reproductive system. (n.d.). Internally, the breasts are primarily composed of fat. The amount of fat can determine breast size. However, breast size has no bearing on the amount of milk someone is able to produce. The vagina can vary in size, but the average length is about 2.5 to 3 inches. That said, it expands in length during arousal.The hymen is a membrane of tissue that covers the external vaginal opening. Not all females have a hymen, however.
In addition to producing eggs, the ovaries also produce hormones. Namely, they release estrogen and progesterone. Fallopian tubes The internal female anatomy begins at the vagina, which is the canal that leads from the vulva to the uterus. The external female anatomy includes the pubis and the vulva. The following sections discuss these in more detail. Mons pubis

Do not want to be affected, so become unresponsive and complacent, walking away from problems, and "sweeping them under the rug." Thinking becomes hazy and ruminative, mostly comforting fantasies, as they begin to "tune out" reality, becoming oblivious. Emotionally indolent, unwillingness to exert self or to focus on problems: indifference.
Follicular phase - (Days 1-14) The ovarian follicles mature and prepare for ovulation. This phase overlaps with the proliferative phase of the uterine cycle which prepares the lining of the uterus for implantation.Intramural (uterine) part - it communicates directly with the uterine cavity via the uterine ostium. Level 7:Can be highly repressed, undeveloped, and ineffectual. Feel incapable of facing problems: become obstinate, dissociating self from all conflicts. Neglectful and dangerous to others.
