Anatomy and physiology of
femalegenitalia
 the female G.S consist of
 1- ovaries.
 2-oviduct.
 3- uterus.
 4- vagina.
 5- vestibule.
 6- vulva.
Ovaries:
the ovaries perform exocrine oogenesis 
and endocrine function steroidogenesis
in female, the ovaries varies in size
&shape according to spp. , estrous
cycle,age of female, breed and presence
or absence of pathological condition,
the structural &functional unit of the
ovary is the follicle
Internal structure and function
 In most domestic animals the ovaries
consist of a peripheral parenchymatous
zone(cortex) containing various stage of
follicular and luteal gland development
surrounding a central vascular zone
(medulla)
comprising
collagenous
connective tissue rich in blood vessels.
*What's the main function of ovary

Uterine tube(oviduct)
They are tubular ,tortuous structure situated 
bw ovary and tip of uterine horn (utro-tubal
junction ).The oviduct derived from
mesonephric duct.The length of oviduct in
mare &cow 20-30 cm ,in ewes & doe 15-20
 cm ,in sow 15-30cm
 Why cannot palpated oviduct in
rectal palpation ?

.
The oviduct consist of 3parts joint together , 
the 1stinfundibulum adjacent the ovary , its
free end &it's usually have fimbria to pick up
ova ,the 2nd part is the larger part called
ampulla , site of fertilization especially in
ampulla isthmus junction ,3rd part is
shorter& narrow part called isthmus ,the
junction bw isthmus and tip of uterine horn
called utro-tubal junction or ostium uterine
tube
*What's the main function of oviduct 
Uterus
Bovine Uterus
*Bicornuate uterus with relatively long uterine
horn .
*coiled in shape like ram horn.
*the length of uterine horn in cow (20-25cm)
*the length of uterine body (4.5-5 cm).
. the endometrium have special structure called
carancles
What deferent between bov .uter &mare
uter?
Mare uterus
 Like T shape
 There are no carancles in mares.
 the endometrial surface is composed of
longitudinal folds
Ovine uterus
 Like in bevies but small in size and little in
number of carancles
Canine uterus
 Yin shape , Bipartate, Length of body 10-12
cm ,length of horn 12-15 cm situated in
abdominal cavity .
Swine uterus
 Intestinal in shape ,length of body 5 cm length of horn
40-100 cm
Cervix
In all cases the caudal portion consist of 
cervical a thick walled segment with a
narrow lumen that act as
sphincterregulating the flow of maternal to
from the uterus.Situated bw the uterus
&posterior part of vagina which called the
vaginal part of uterus or portiovaginalis of
the cervix.
Bovine cervix
 8-10 length ,2-4 cm in diameter , the cervix
in bovine consider the guide to the female
gentilia by rectal palpation , because
presence of cervical rings 3-5 rings , it has
cartilaginous in consistency but there is no
cartilage, the cervix have longitudinal fold
interrupted by circular mucosal folds.
Mare (equine) cervix
 5-7.5 cm length , 2.5-5 cm diameter have
longitudinal folds .
Ovine cervix
 Similar to bovine but small , 4-6 cm in
length , 2-3 cm in diameter, 5-7 cervical
rings (anullar rings).
Canine cervix
 0.5-5 cm in length , 0.5-0.75 cm in diameter
has longitudinal folds
Swine cervix
 It has spiral lumen to fit the boars penis
The vagina
 It make up a major portion of anatomic
connection bw the uterus & external
environment .
 Extend from fornix to the external urethral
orifice & hymen
Vestibules
 Extend from vulval cleft to the hymen ,that
make up the vestibule-vaginal junction
&urethral orifice.It resample the terminal
part of genital tract and belonging to both
the urinary and genital sys
 The vestibule have minor &major glands
 The vulva is just caudal to the vestibule
&consist of two labia and clitoris.
