Publisher's Synopsis
This volume provides an up-to-date review of endocrine, biochemical, genetic, and morphological studies on the uterus and human reproduction. Topics of increasing interest in endometrial and myometrial research are covered, including proliferation and differentiation of endometrial cells, vascularization and hemostasis, abnormal uterine bleeding, contraception and hormonal replacement therapy, embryo receptivity, implantation, early-stage pregnancy, and normal and abnormal uterine function. Papers covering the role of uterine receptivity and its possible alterations resulting from induction of ovulation treatments will complete the review. New diagnostic and therapeutic tools in infertility are also addressed.
