Localization of endometrial PGR. PGR staining was most abundant in endometrial luminal epithelium (LE) and superficial glandular epithelia (sGE) in CO-treated ewes necropsied on day 9 of pregnancy and was markedly reduced in endometria of P4-treated ewes necropsied on day 9 and 12 (a and b). Similar PGR localization and staining intensity was found in the LE of CO and P4-treated ewes necropsied on day 12. PGR in endometria of P4-treated ewes necropsied on day 12 was least abundant in both sGE and LE. Scale bar represents 100 μm. Only endometria from ewes which were considered pregnant with normally developed conceptuse were utilized for these analyses
