A member asked:

What path does the egg take through the female reproductive tract?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See below: Egg is released by the ovary and it is picked up by the finger like processes of fallopian tube. With or without fertilization it moves through the fallopian tube into the uterus. If the egg is fertilized, it implants in the uterus, if not it is lost in the menstrual blood.
