Fringe (Fimbria, Pl. Fimbriae)

Fimbrias (pl. fimbriae), also known as fimbriae, are finger-like structures that surround the peritoneal opening of the fallopian tubes and can be found in the female reproductive system.

The fimbria play an important role in the fertilization process, as they help hold the egg and sperm together, allowing them to interact more effectively. Also, fimbria may be associated with certain diseases, such as endometriosis and uterine fibroids.
