If the Fimbriae Do Not Catch the Ovum,an Ectopic Pregnancy

Question

If the fimbriae do not catch the ovum,an ectopic pregnancy could occur.

Accepted Answer

Fimbriae are finger-like projections at the end of the fallopian tubes that help guide the ovum from the ovary to the uterus. If they fail to catch the ovum, it could implant outside the uterus, leading to an ectopic pregnancy.
