Where are eggs or ova produced in the female body?

Quick Answer

Egg cells are produced in the ovaries. They mature in follicles before ovulation.

The Full Story

Ova, or egg cells, are produced and stored in the ovaries. Each egg develops within a follicle, a small structure that supports its growth and hormone production. During ovulation, a mature egg is released and can travel into the fallopian tube. Humans are born with a finite number of immature egg cells, unlike sperm, which are produced continuously after puberty.
