In humans an ovum is an egg produced by a female, also called a female "gamete". It is what is fertilized by sperm (the male gamete) to form a zygote from which offspring develop. In humans the ovum is developed in the female's reproductive system, specifically in the ovaries. Women have an ovary on each side of their uterus in the pelvic area. There are Fallopian tubes (through which the egg is released) connecting each ovary and the uterus. If the ovum is fertilized, it will implant itself in the womb, or if unfertilized, it will be released with the woman's next menstrual period.
