Abstract

The content of nuclear DNA in the epithelium of the endometrial glands of six healthy women of childbearing age and 10 women with menopausal dyshormonal glandular-cystic hyperplasia was investigated microspectrophotometrically. The DNA content in the normal uterine mucosa in the various phases of the menstrual cycle was unchanged, but in dyshormonal hyperplasia of the endometrium the DNA content was almost twice the normal value; a moderate increase in polyploidy also was observed.
