From: Pathological findings in the endometrium after microwave endometrial ablation

Expression pattern of the ER (A) and PR (B) in the normal cycling endometrium and endometrium after MEA. The scores (mean ± SD) for the expression of both the ER and PR were significantly (*p < 0.05) decreased in the endometrial tissue after ablation compared to that in the normal cycling endometrial tissue. Cases found in each category in the normal cycling endometrium and endometrium with MEA treatment after immunostaining of hormone receptors: menstrual (n = 5), early proliferative (n = 6), mid proliferative (n = 4), late proliferative (n = 8), early-mid secretory (n = 7), late secretory (n = 17), and after MEA (n = 8).
