  • period of uterine receptivity

Note

  • There is strong evidence that a temporal window of maximal endometrial receptivity exists. Implantation efficiency appears to decrease significantly when ET is performed outside this window. The concept of an "implantation window" comes mainly from studies in Muridae. In this species, implantation is induced by low doses of ovarian estrogens. Such nidatory estrogens act on the progestational endometrium and are responsible for the short period of uterine receptivity. This period is followed by a refractory phase during which the uterine environment becomes hostile for the embryos. (Source : INRA)
