Artery Utero-Ovarian

The uterotesticular artery (or uterovaginal artery) is a vessel that connects the ovary to the uterus and provides nutrition to the organs of the lower part of the reproductive system. This artery is one of the largest vessels of the female pelvis and plays an important role in menstruation and labor, as well as in the functioning of other endocrine glands.

The artery of the uterine ovary connects to the common iliac artery, providing blood and oxygen to the area of ​​the woman’s internal genital organs. It flows into the umbilical fossa of the uterus to provide blood supply to the walls of the uterus and other structures of the reproductive system.

The utero-ovarian artery originates from the common iliac artery at the level of the sacrospinous joint and serves to supply the uterine parts of the female reproductive system, namely the uterus itself, its vessels, muscle layer and outer surface. In addition, through it, the fluid that circulates in the uterus is reabsorbed. Inside the cavity of the uterus itself there is a uterine artery, and parallel to it is a thin tubal artery.
