A Novel Contributor to Endometrial Receptivity: Endometrial Microbiota
Journal Title: Gynecology and Obstetrics Research – Open Journal - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
In the recent years, our knowledge about human reproductive system has increased with the development of assisted reproductive technologies; however, embryo implantation rate is still around 25-30%.1 Embryo implantation depends on the quality of the embryo, endometrial receptivity and the embryo/endometrial interface.2 The onset of implantation is a successful concurrence of 2 different processes; embryo development and endometrial differentiation. Therefore, synchronization between development of a good quality embryo and receptive endometrium is paramount for the success of embryo implantation and ongoing pregnancy.2,3 The association between embryo and receptive endometrium during implantation is not fully understood yet, because in vivo studies about implantation are scarce due to ethical and technical problems. So our knowledge about implantation is mostly derived from animal studies.
