The uterus is a secondary sex organ. Secondary sex organs are components of the reproductive tract that mature during puberty under the impact of sex hormones produced from primary sex organs (the ovaries in females and the testes in males).
They are responsible for the maintenance and transportation of gametes.
In this article, we shall look at the anatomy of theuterus – its structure, location and neurovascular supply.

Anatomical Structure
The uterus is a thick-walled muscular organ capable of expansion to accommodate a growing fetus. It is associated distally to the vagina, and laterally to the uterine tubes.
The uterus has three parts;
- Fundus – top of the uterus, above the entry point of the uterine tubes.
- Body – usual site for implantation of the blastocyst.
- Cervix – lower part of uterus linking it with the vagina. This part is structurally and functionally different to the relax of the uterus. See here for more information about the cervix.

Endocrine System
What Is the Endocrine System?
The endocrine system is made up of glands that make hormones. Hormones are the body's chemical messengers. They carry information and instructions from one set of cells to another.
The endocrine (EN-duh-krin) system influences almost every cell, organ, and function of our bodies.
What Does the Endocrine System Do?
- Endocrine glands release into the bloodstream. This lets the hormones travel to cells in other parts of the body.
- The endocrine hormones help control mood, growth and development, the way our organs work, , and reproduction.
- The endocrine system regulates how much of each hormone is released. This can depend on levels of hormones already in the blood, or on levels of other substances in the blood, like calcium. Many things affect hormone levels, such as stress, infection, and changes in the balance of fluid and minerals in blood.
Too much or too little of any hormone can harm the body. Medicines can treat many of these problems.
What Are the Parts of the Endocrine System?
While many parts of the body make hormones, the major glands that make up the endocrine system are the:
- hypothalamus
- pituitary
- thyroid
- p
