The anatomy of the female reproductive tract includes the [[Female Reproductive Tract -The Vagina/Vestibule - Anatomy & Physiology|the external genitalia and vagina]], [[Female Reproductive Tract -The Cervix - Anatomy & Physiology|the cervix]], [[Female Reproductive Tract -The Uterus - Anatomy & Physiology|the uterus]], [[Female Reproductive Tract -The Oviduct - Anatomy & Physiology|the oviduct]] and [[Female Reproductive Tract -The Ovary - Anatomy & Physiology|the ovary]].

Female animals regularly enter a phase where they are sexually active and receptive to males; this is collectively known as the [[Female Reproductive Tract -Oestrous Cycle - Anatomy & Physiology|Oestrous Cycle]]oestrous cycle. Some animals are able to reproduce all year round, but many have an anoestrus phase which requires a [[Female Reproductive Tract -Seasonality of Reproduction - Anatomy & Physiology|seasonal response]] for cycling to begin.
