'''Reproductive system''' is a system of sex organs within an organism which work together for the purpose of sexual reproduction. Many non-living substances such as fluids, hormones, and pheromones are also important accessories to the reproductive system.<ref>{{cite web|title=Reproductive system|url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reproductive_system|accessdate=2021-09-30}}</ref> Unlike most organ systems, the sexes of differentiated species often have significant differences.

== Overview ==
The reproductive system involves a number of internal and external organs that work together for reproduction. The major reproductive organs of the female include the [[ovaries]], [[fallopian tubes]], [[uterus]], [[vagina]], and [[mammary glands]]. The major reproductive organs of the male include the [[testes]], [[vas deferens]], [[seminal vesicles]], [[prostate]], and [[penis]].

== Female Reproductive System ==
The female reproductive system is made up of internal organs and external structures. Its function is to enable reproduction of the species. Sexual maturation is the process that this system undergoes in order to carry out its role in the process of pregnancy and birth.

=== Ovaries ===
The [[ovaries]] are small, paired organs that are located near the lateral walls of the pelvic cavity. These organs are responsible for the production and release of eggs, or [[oocyte]]s, for fertilization and pregnancy.

=== Fallopian Tubes ===
The [[fallopian tubes]] are a pair of muscular tubes that extend from the left and right superior regions of the uterus to the edge of the ovaries, in the female reproductive system.

=== Uterus ===
The [[uterus]], or womb, is a major female responsive reproductive sex organ of most mammals, including humans.

=== Vagina ===
The [[vagina]] is a muscular canal that extends from the vulva to the neck of the uterus (cervix) in women and females of other mammal species.

=== Mammary Glands ===
The [[mammary glands]] are specialized organs in mammals that produce milk to feed young offspring.

== Male Reproductive System ==
The male reproductive system consists of a number of sex organs that play a role in the process of human reproduction.

=== Testes ===
The [[testes]] are the male gonads that produce sperm and reproductive hormones.

=== Vas Deferens ===
The [[vas deferens]], also known as the sperm duct, is a thin tube approximately 30 centimeters long that starts from the epididymis to the pelvic cavity.

=== Seminal Vesicles ===
The [[seminal vesicles]] are a pair of simple tubular glands posteroinferior to the urinary bladder of some male mammals.

=== Prostate ===
The [[prostate]] is a compound tubuloalveolar exocrine gland of the male reproductive system in most mammals.

=== Penis ===
The [[penis]] is a part of the male reproductive system that has a shaft and an opening through which sperm and urine exit.
