Detailed explanation-1: -What are fimbriae? Fimbriae are finger-like projections on the ends of your fallopian tubes closest to your ovaries. Each month, your fimbriae catch the egg that one of your ovaries releases during ovulation. Your fimbriae then sweep the egg (ovum) into the fallopian tube where the egg can be fertilized.
Detailed explanation-2: -During the ovulation period, when an egg is released from the ovary, the fimbriae help the non-motile egg to enter into the Fallopian tube, from which it moves through the passage to the uterus. Its main function is to collect the egg released from the ovary after ovulation and draw it into the fallopian tube.
Detailed explanation-3: -Fimbriae, or fimbriae tubae, are the finger-like projections located at the ends of the fallopian tubes, closest to the ovaries. The majority of the fimbriae do not touch the ovary but rather hover very close by, activated by hormones to catch a released egg and move it down into the fallopian tube.
