The Endometrium is one such important environment that helps embryo development, particularly in its early stages. The endometrium is a thin layer of protective tissue that borders the uterus and is where the fertilized egg implants to develop into a baby throughout the gestation period. Endometrium offers the required nutrients for the baby's development, such as proteins, glycogens, lipids, and other fluids. An extremely thin or very thick Endometrium, on the other hand, might jeopardize a pregnancy, resulting in pregnancy loss or recurrent IVF failures. It is thus important to ensure that the pregnant woman has a healthy Endometrium from the beginning. What exactly is the ERA (Endometrial Receptivity Array)? A healthy endometrium may be assessed with vaginal ultrasound to determine its fluctuating size, which is what most physicians do.
