The spontaneous motility of ampullary and isthmic regions of Fallopian tubes from women at different stages of the ovarian cycle was examined using three parameters, frequency, intensity and activity units.
Differences in motility were demonstrated between sites and between some of the stages of the cycle.
The activity of the ampulla was greater than that of the isthmus during the proliferative and secretory stages. The isthmic region had constant activity throughout the cycle, but the ampulla was less active during the puerperium.
