Reproduction in the female requires a complex sequence of integrated events including ovulation, gamete transport, fertilization, conceptus transport, implantation, fetal support, and finally parturition. Each of these individual reproductive events represents the sum of many systemic, local, cellular, and molecular interactions. All of these processes have varying degrees of susceptibility to interference by xenobiotic compounds. This chapter presents a brief review of some of these mechanisms of female reproductive biology.
女性生殖需要一系列复杂的整合事件，包括排卵、配子运输、受精、孕体运输、着床、胎儿支持，最终是分娩。这些个体生殖事件中的每一个都代表了许多全身、局部、细胞和分子相互作用的总和。所有这些过程对外源化合物干扰的敏感性各不相同。本章简要回顾女性生殖生物学的一些机制。
