What is the function of the uterine cavity?
The uterine cavity is the inner space of the uterus where fertilized eggs implant and develop into fetuses during pregnancy. It is lined with a specialized tissue called endometrium, which thickens and sheds during each menstrual cycle if pregnancy does not occur. The uterine cavity plays a crucial role in supporting the growth and development of a fetus.
What happen if there is no fertilization?
If fertilization does not occur, the egg will not implant in the uterus and will eventually disintegrate. The hormonal changes that are triggered by fertilization will not take place, leading to the shedding of the uterine lining. This process culminates in menstruation, where the body expels the unfertilized egg and the thickened uterine lining. Essentially, the cycle resets, preparing the body for the possibility of future fertilization.

It is where implantation of a fertilized egg occurs and is responsible for supporting fetal development during pregnancy.
