Labeled Structures and Their NEET Relevance

StructureNEET Significance
OvarySite of egg production; follicular aspiration for IVF/GIFT/ZIFT
Fallopian tube (ampulla)Normal site of fertilization; transfer site for ZIFT and GIFT
Uterus (uterine cavity)IUD placement site; embryo transfer site for IVF-ET/ICSI
CervixCervical mucus thickened by LNG-20/progestins; IUD inserted through here
VaginaBarrier contraceptives (female condom, diaphragm) placed here

ART Transfer Targets on Diagram

Ovary ──egg retrieval──→ Laboratory (in vitro fertilization for IVF/ZIFT/ICSI)
                          ↓
                     Fallopian Tube ← ZIFT (zygote), GIFT (gametes)
                          ↓ natural transport
                     Uterus ← IVF-ET (embryo), ICSI (embryo)
                              ← AI/IUI (semen)

IUD Placement

  • Both Cu-T and LNG-20 are inserted through the cervix into the uterine cavity
  • Cu-T releases Cu2+ ions locally in the uterine environment
  • LNG-20 releases levonorgestrel locally — minimal systemic hormonal effect
