endometrial health

Endometrial health refers to the condition of the lining of the uterus, which thickens and sheds monthly as part of the menstrual cycle. A healthy endometrium supports reproductive function, allowing for proper implantation of a fertilized egg and successful pregnancy. Factors like hormonal balance, age, lifestyle, and medical conditions can influence endometrial health. Abnormalities—such as excessive thickening, thinning, or irregular shedding—may cause issues like irregular periods, fertility problems, or increased risk of certain diseases. Maintaining overall health, managing hormonal levels, and seeking medical advice when necessary are important for supporting a healthy endometrium.
