i think i have to refute! isn't estrogen responsible for endometrial proliferation? and progesterone prepares endometrium for implatation?
disapproval

my answer is the failure of estrogen to peak and therefore the endometrial lining does not proliferate.

I have to disagree with the answer. She clearly has low estrogen with normal progesterone. But, estrogen is responsible for proliferation of the endometrium. That's why women who have high levels of cancer are prone to endometrial cancer because of all the hyperplasia. Also the answer says that estrogen is resposible for causing the endometrium to secrete mucus, that's not true, it is progesterone that causes the "secretory" phase. The mucus is the secretory phase is to give nutrients to the blastocyst.
