Ovarie
The ovaries are a pair of small, almond-shaped organs located in the female reproductive system. Situated on either side of the uterus, they play a crucial role in both reproduction and hormone production. Each ovary is connected to the uterus by the fallopian tube and is held in place by ligaments and surrounding tissue.

Common conditions affecting the ovaries include polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), ovarian cysts, endometriosis, and ovarian cancer.
