Fallopian Tube Motility

Molecular classification
Physiological Process
01

Overview

Fallopian tube motility refers to the coordinated muscular contractions and ciliary movements within the fallopian tubes (oviducts) that facilitate the transport of gametes (oocytes and sperm) and embryos between the ovaries and uterus. This process is essential for natural fertilization, as it ensures that eggs are picked up after ovulation, transported toward sperm for fertilization, and then moved to the uterus for implantation. Motility is regulated by hormones, neurotransmitters, and prostaglandins, and disorders can lead to infertility or ectopic pregnancy.
