The reproductive system mainly functions to create human life. Ovaries

produce female sex hormones and eggs. Eggs are fertilized in the fallopian
tube by sperm then travel to the uterus, which provides the site for growth.
The mammary glands produce milk for the newborn. Diseases and disorders
associated with the female reproductive systems include breast cancer,
removal of breast or lumpectomy; hysterectomy; pregnancy complications;
endometriosis; ovarian or cervical cancers; and diseases or injuries of the
vulva, vagina, cervix, uterus, fallopian tubes, or ovaries.
