What organs are parts of the female reproductive system? During which period of life does the formation of gametes begin in women?

Organs that are part of the female reproductive system include the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, cervix, and vagina.

The formation of gametes, or eggs, begins in women during fetal development. By the time a female baby is born, she already has all the eggs she will ever have in her lifetime. These eggs are stored in the ovaries and are released during ovulation.
