“…This period is characterized by the control of the endometrium by progesterone in preparation for implantation. The imposition of progesterone over estrogen defines the "window of implantation" (days [20][21][22][23][24] during the secretory phase [1,10,11].…”

“…Studies have shown a correlation of the number of these structures with endometrial receptivity for blastocyst implantation in human [20,21]. Pinopode development during the mid-luteal phase is associated with an increase in expression of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and its receptor, progesterone and integrin αVβ3 [17,[22][23][24]. All these molecules are crucial in the communication between the blastocyst and endometrium.…”

Reproduction is a fundamental process for the preservation of the human species. This process requires a sequence of orchestrated events that are necessary for a successful pregnancy. Two of the most critical steps in the establishment of human pregnancy are implantation and decidualization, which are required for maternal interactions with the developing embryo. This review primarily highlights the physiological aspects of these two events and the adverse pregnancy outcomes from defective implantation and decidualization. The focus of this review is to provide a general concept of the mechanisms involved during the window of implantation, description of components involved in the process and possible pathologies that could disrupt the embryo implantation and decidualization and specifically as it applies to women and non-human primates.
