MORPHOMETRIC CHANGES IN THE HISTOLOGICAL STRUCTURE OF THE UTERINE BODY DURING POSTNATAL ONTOGENESIS IN GOATS

Abstract

Abstract: This article investigates the histological structure of the uterine body wall and its age-related morphometric changes during postnatal ontogenesis in goats. The results showed that the perimetrium, myometrium, and endometrium layers of the uterine wall gradually increased in thickness throughout postnatal development. From 3 days to 60 months of age, the perimetrium increased 11.85-fold, the myometrium 3.90-fold, and the endometrium 2.69-fold. The findings demonstrate the age-related differential development of the histological structures of the goat uterus during postnatal ontogenesis.
