Fertility for females depends on the ovaries releasing healthy eggs. The reproductive tract must allow an egg to enter the fallopian tube and join the sperm for fertilization. The fertilized egg travels to the uterus and inserts into the lining. Tests for female infertility try to find out if any of these procedures are weak.
