The endometrium is the innermost layer of the uterus, and it is the layer that thickens and sheds during the monthly reproductive cycle. The myometrium is the middle layer of the uterus, and it consists of smooth muscle tissue that contracts to help push the baby out during childbirth. The perimetrium is the outermost layer of the uterus, and it is a thin layer of connective tissue that covers the uterus. While all three layers of the uterus are important, only the endometrium varies according to the monthly reproductive cycle.
