Definite functions
- Production of sex cells (ova).
- Development/maturation of those sex cells (follicle maturation, oogenesis).
- Production of hormones (mainly estrogen and progesterone).

Partial/conditional
- Help in immunity: yes, the female reproductive tract has local immune defenses (mucosal immunity, microbiome, immune modulation during pregnancy) but systemic immune function is not a main role.

Not a function
- Transport of nutrients: not as a general function of the reproductive system (only in pregnancy the placenta — a pregnancy-derived organ involving uterine tissue — transfers nutrients to the fetus).
- Maintenance of water balance: no, that is regulated mainly by the kidneys, hormones like ADH/aldosterone, and the circulatory system.
