Detailed explanation-1: -In particular, flow is increased by approximately 1500% to the uterine artery (which supplies approximately 90% of the blood to the uterus in non-pregnant individuals) and to the utero-ovarian communicating artery (which supplies approximately 10% of the blood to the uterus in non-pregnant individuals).

Detailed explanation-2: -The ovarian artery is a long paired vessel that usually stems from the anterolateral aspect of the abdominal aorta. It courses through much of the abdomen and pelvis, ending in the suspensory ligament of ovary. The male equivalent of the ovarian artery is the testicular artery.

Detailed explanation-3: -The arterial blood supply of the uterus comes from three arteries: the uterine branch of the ovarian artery, the uterine artery of the external iliac artery, and the uterine branch of the urogenital artery. All arteries enter the uterus at its mesometrial border and divide into smaller ones.
