When it comes to the reproductive health of a woman, understanding the concept of ovulation is important. Ovulation is the part of the menstrual cycle where your ovaries release an egg each month. This egg then goes to the fallopian tube, where it waits for a sperm to meet for fertilization. If the egg meets a sperm, it undergoes fertilization to form an embryo, which attaches to the uterus, resulting in a pregnancy. If there is no sperm for fertilization, the body just disposes of the egg.
