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 two small, oval-shaped organs in the pelvis (the area between the hips in the lower part of the tummy). They are part of the female reproductive system, which is made up of the ovaries, fallopian tubes, womb (uterus), cervix and vagina. Each month, in women of childbearing age, one of the ovaries produces an egg (ovulation). The egg passes down the fallopian tube to the womb.
