The uterus lining, or endometrium, thickens in preparation for a potential pregnancy each month. If fertilization does not occur, hormonal changes lead to a decrease in estrogen and progesterone levels, which causes the endometrium to break down and shed. This shedding results in menstruation, during which the lining becomes thinner as it is expelled from the body. In the absence of pregnancy, the thinning of the lining is a natural part of the menstrual cycle.
