Uterine Health

Meaning

The state of optimal structural integrity, physiological function, and balanced endocrine responsiveness of the uterus, encompassing the myometrium, endometrium, and cervix. This health is fundamentally dependent on the cyclical and appropriate signaling of sex steroid hormones, particularly estrogen and progesterone, throughout the reproductive years and into menopause. Maintaining uterine health is crucial for fertility, menstrual cycle regulation, and long-term gynecological well-being.
