claimThe corpus luteum is a transient endocrine organ that primarily secretes progesterone to prepare the estrogen-primed endometrium for implantation of the fertilized ovum.
claimSurrogate embryo transfer combined with estrogen-progesterone therapy allows for implantation, gestation, and delivery in monkeys without ovaries, according to a 1983 study by Hodgen published in JAMA.
measurementPeak vascularization of the corpus luteum is achieved eight or nine days after ovulation, which corresponds to the time of expected implantation and peak serum levels of progesterone and estradiol.

claimThe fallopian tubes are the primary site for ovum fertilization and transport the resulting zygote into the uterus for implantation.
claimDuring the follicular phase (days 1-14) of the ovarian cycle, ovarian follicles mature and prepare for ovulation, while the overlapping proliferative phase of the uterine cycle prepares the lining of the uterus for implantation.
claimDuring the luteal phase (days 14-28) of the ovarian cycle, the ovarian follicle transforms into a hormone-secreting corpus luteum, which corresponds to the secretory phase of the uterine cycle where the endometrium becomes a nutritionally rich environment for implantation.

claimDuring the menstrual cycle, increased estradiol levels cause the maturation and release of the egg and the thickening of the uterus lining to allow for the implantation of a fertilized egg.
claimIf conception occurs, relaxin levels increase throughout the first trimester to aid in implantation, placenta growth, and the prevention of uterine contractions.

claimDuring the secretory phase, progesterone levels rise, causing the uterine lining to stop thickening and prepare for implantation.

referenceThe uterine tubes (also known as oviducts or fallopian tubes) are bilateral appendages located at the superior portion of the uterine cavity that transport sperm toward the egg and facilitate the passage of the fertilized egg to the uterus for implantation. They connect the endometrial and peritoneal cavities, exiting the uterus through the cornua. The tubes consist of three segments: the isthmus (closest to the uterus), the ampulla (the dilated middle segment where fertilization typically occurs), and the infundibulum (the distal segment). The infundibulum features fimbriae, which are fingerlike projections that capture the egg released by the ovary.

claimEstrogen and progesterone levels peak during the mid-luteal phase, approximately eight to 12 days after ovulation, which is when implantation most commonly occurs.
