Definition of Ovulation
Ovulation is term used when the ovary releases an egg (ovum, oocyte or female gamete) into the fallopian tube. It is one stage in the female menstrual cycle and marks the onset of the fertile period of the month. The egg then travels down the fallopian tube where it is fertilized by a sperm or if unfertilized, it is ejected at the next period.
