Diagram of uterine blood supply. The human uterus is supplied by arterial blood both from the uterine artery and the ovarian artery. Another anastomotic branch may also supply the uterus from anastomosis of these two arteries. Afferent nerves supplying the uterus are T11 and T12.

The stroma is a layer of connective tissue that varies in thickness according to hormonal influences.

In women of reproductive age, two layers of endometrium can be ...

Many books such as "Human Anatomy for Artists: The Elements of Form", are written as a guide to drawing the human body anatomically correctly. [4]
