Endometrium
The layer of the uterus that is shed during menstruation is the endometrium. This shedding is a normal process that occurs monthly in response to hormonal changes in the body.

The flow of blood and tissue cells from the uterus is called menstruation. During menstruation, the lining of the uterus sheds and is expelled through the vagina. This process is accompanied by the flow of blood, which is a mix of tissue cells, uterine lining, and blood from the ruptured blood vessels in the uterus.
Menstrual clots are thickened blood that can appear during menstruation, while menstrual tissue is the lining of the uterus that sheds during a period.
Menstrual cycle.
The material flowing from the human female reproductive tract during menstruation is produced by the breakdown of the endometrial lining of the uterus. This tissue and blood are shed during the menstrual cycle if a fertilized egg is not implanted.

The endometrium is the innermost layer of the uterus. It is the layer that is shed during menstruation.
Pain during menstruation. May be caused by pelvic inflammatory disease (a rather nonspecific diagnosis) or by endometriosis (where endometrial tissue occurs NOT in the uterus).
The endometrium is the specific layer of the uterus that is shed during menstruation. It is the inner lining of the uterus that thickens in preparation for a fertilized egg, but is shed if pregnancy does not occur.
The thickness of the lining of the uterus decreases between day one and day five of the menstrual cycle primarily due to the shedding of the endometrial tissue during menstruation. This process is triggered by a drop in hormone levels, particularly progesterone, which leads to the breakdown and expulsion of the uterine lining. As menstruation progresses, the lining is sloughed off, resulting in a thinner endometrium by day five. After this phase, hormone levels begin to rise again, preparing the uterus for potential implantation in the following cycle.
