Metabolic period: during the 15th-28th day of the menstrual period, the endometrium thickness reaches 5-7mm.

The normal thickness of the uterine wall can reach 8-1b250mm when menstruation comes. At this time, the level of estrogen and estrogen decreases, which activates the production of prostaglandins in the endometrium. Prostaglandins can stimulate the contraction of the uterine muscle layer, causing the spiral arteries in the functional layer of the endometrium to continue to contract and reduce endometrial blood flow. The total area of ​​ischemic necrotic tissue gradually expands. Tissue degeneration and necrosis, increased permeability of blood vessel walls, rupture of blood vessels, resulting in the formation of abscesses at the bottom of the endometrium, and promoting tissue necrosis and exfoliation. The degenerated and necrotic endometrium mixes with the blood and is discharged to produce menstrual blood.
