where is ovary located
The ovaries are a pair of almond-shaped glands that produce ova and the female sex hormones. Located laterally to the left and right of the uterus and inferior to the fallopian tubes, the ovaries are connected to the uterus via the ovarian ligaments. In response to luteinizing hormone produced by the anterior pituitary gland, the ovaries produce the female sex hormones including estrogen and progesterone.
