The ovaries produce and release eggs (oocytes) into the female reproductive tract at the mid-point of each menstrual cycle. They also produce the female hormones oestrogen and progesterone. Alternative names Ovary.
An ovary is part of the female reproductive system, and is generally located in the pelvis of female mammals. Human females normally have two ovaries. The ovaries release egg â¦cells, called ova. From birth, the ovaries contain all the egg cells a woman will ever release, though immature. The ovaries also produce two hormones, estrone (a type of estrogen) and progesterone. To be technical, the ovaries produce two precursors to estrone, and the conversion to estrone takes place in the bloodstream. These hormones are responsible for female secondary sexual characteristics such as breasts and soft skin.
