〈Part 2 - The Female Reproductive Organs〉
Dr Alice Roberts continues her tour of our reproductive systems, this time looking at the female sexual organs. And unlike in Episode 1, these are organs she is in possession of herself so she can use an MRI scanner on her own body to demonstrate how everything fits together –possibly a first for a television presenter: “…so there we go, my vagina on national television. My mum would be proud.”
The female body is at its most fertile when women are young and often unlikely to be interested in having children. Rachel Macfarlane, a 24-year-old newly qualified solicitor in Manchester, is typical of many career women. Joining Dr Alice on a journey of discovery, she would like to find out more about her body and her fertility, but admits that she has no plans to have children any time soon.
Using Dr Alice’s trademark dissections of animal parts, drawings and props, the female reproductive organs are explained. Thousands of chocolate mini eggs help to demonstrate the huge number of eggs a baby girl is born with and how they immediately start disintegrating. Dr Alice even rolls down a hill in a giant plastic ball to demonstrate the journey of a female egg once it leaves the ovaries.
There is also advice on how to become ‘breast aware’ – Rachel’s mother recently beat breast cancer – as well as the importance of protecting yourself from sexually transmitted infections, and the value of smear tests for fighting cervical cancer.
Dr Alice witnesses the birth of a baby girl and examines some new scientific research, which suggests that women advertise their most fertile times to men without even realising it themselves.
