“which there is a concern of Kalus Rosh that you must separate the sexes”

How many times must this be repeated: With the exception of the balcony that was built late in Bayit Sheni times, and only for Yom Tov, there was no separation in the Beit HaMikdash. Women could even enter the courtyard of the priests to shecht their own korban, and the priest had to be right next to her in order to catch the blood, an avodah that could only be performed by a male priest. There was even a special entrance to the priest’s courtyard for women. Must I give citations of mishnayot or gemaras for this?
