FIGURE 1 In the control group, normal appearing cuboidal cells were lining regularly in a row at the general morphological observation of the endometrial epithelium (bold arrow in upper picture ×40). However, in the high-dose hMG group, cuboidal epithelial cells turned out to be columnar cells, and irregularities and foldings were observed at the lining of the cells (dashed arrows in lower picture ×40).
