The uterus (Latin word for womb) is a major female reproductive organ of most mammals, including humans. It is within the uterus that the fetus develops during gestation. The term uterus is used exclusively within the medical and related professions; some lay persons use the less formal term, womb. The plural of uterus is uteruses or uteri.
One end, the cervix, opens into the vagina; the other is connected on both sides to the Fallopian tubes.
