1 But the next assault is just around the corner, and the band's talent for stringing out the quiet moments makes the next shower of blows rain down even harder. 2  Blows rained down on me from all sides and I fell to the floor under a merciless avalanche of abuse.
The ovaries are located in the pelvis, one on each side of the uterus. Each ovary is about the size and shape of an almond. The ovaries produce eggs (ova) and female hormones. During each monthly menstrual cycle, an egg is released from one ovary.
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.
