Abstract:
Peculiarities of endometrial hyperplasia during monophase menstrual cycle have been investigated. 52 patients of premenopause and menopause period (age 35-52 years old) have been investigated using uterus scrape analysis. Histostereometric and morphometric methods have been used for the study. The analyses of the obtained results has shown that: 1. The endometrial hyperplasia accompanies the shortened and prolonged persistency of follicles in a monophase menstrual cycle. Therefore when making the pathohistological diagnosis, the pathogenetic aspects should be indicated; 2. Endometrial hyperplasia is not a separate nosological phenomenon and effectiveness of its therapy strongly depends on the condition of ovary and hormone systems.

Proliferative Phase
Notably, the stratum basale, the basal layer of the endometrium, including the basal parts of the uterine glands, remains unaffected by menstruation. Stem cells in this layer undergo mitosis, regenerating the stratum functionalis and thickening the...
