Patient's question:
Patient Gender:Main Symptoms: Irregular menstruation
Onset Date: August 28, 2009
Laboratory Test Results: Proliferative phase endometrium
Doctor's answer:
Hello, the proliferative phase endometrium is not a disease but rather a stage of the cyclical changes of the endometrium. Under normal conditions, the endometrium is divided into two layers: the functional layer and the basal layer. The functional layer undergoes dynamic cyclical changes with the menstrual cycle. From day 5 to day 14 of the menstrual cycle, it is the proliferative phase endometrium. From day 15 to the day before menstruation, it undergoes secretory phase changes. From day 1 to day 4 after menstruation, it is the menstrual phase, which is the time when the functional layer of the endometrium sheds.
