Endometrium

Molecular classification
Tissue
01

Overview

The endometrium is the innermost lining of the uterus, composed of the stratum basalis (regenerative layer) and the stratum functionalis (shedding layer). It plays a central role in menstruation, implantation, and placental development under hormonal control by estrogen and progesterone. Abnormalities in endometrial thickness and function can indicate or cause infertility, endometriosis, hyperplasia, or cancer.
