Figure 6. Micrograph of a cross-section of the Uterus of Experimental Animals treated with 200mg/kg of aqueous Carica papaya seed extract. Stained with Hematoxylin and Eosin (H and E stain). Mag x 100. The control group (A) at 7 and 21 days shows normal simple cuboidal epithelial cells lining the uterine gland, and well-pigmented endometrial cells as compared to Carica papaya-treated groups. The severity of uterine cellular distortion has higher in those treated for 21 days.
