Secretory endometrium is a non-cancerous change seen in the tissue that lines the inside of the uterus. It is a normal finding in women of reproductive age. The secretory endometrium produces substances necessary to support the implantation of an egg should conception occur.
When does the endometrium become secretory?
The progesterone surge of ovulation ends the proliferative phase, and the endometrium moves into the secretory (or luteal phase) of development. Under normal conditions the secretory phase is 14 days in length, and the endometrium moves through an orderly sequence of morphologic changes (Fig. 10.2).
What does the endometrium secrete during secretory phase?
Middle secretory phase: The endometrium is now mature; the glycogen migrates from the basal to the apical pole, whereby the nuclei of the epithelial cells are shifted to the basal pole. The secretion containing glycogen is released into the glandular lumen.
