The aim of the research is investigation of the endometrial hormonal status during menstrual cycle infertile and infertile women. 68 endometrial biopsies from 18-45 years old women have been studied. Some changes of ER and PR expression during menstrual cycle both in fertile and infertile women has been founded. However the ER expression in endometrial stroma and PR in the glands in a proliferative stage of cycle of fertile women are higher than in a secretory stage. In infertile women the PR expression in endometrial glands is opposite.
