The endometrium is the layer that covers the uterus, so any pathology, uterine adhesion or defective growth in it could have a negative influence on the implantation of the embryo.
Among the most frequent tumors and alterations of the endometrium are the following:
- Uterine adhesions
- are also called uterine synechiae. It is a tissue network in the uterine cavity and is usually asymptomatic. When the woman shows symptoms it may be due to Asherman's syndrome.
- Myoms
- are benign tumors located in the myometrium, that is, the muscular layer between the uterus.
- Endometritis

- Polyps
