Uterus Produces Hormones?

Reply: Patti Tessler, FNP: "Re: Inflammation down below" I've heard some claim that the (nonpregnant) uterus produces hormones and that this is a rationale for avoiding hysterectomy for nonmalignant conditions either pre- or postmenopausally. Certainly the premenopausal ovary produces estrogen and progesterone, but I wasn't aware that the uterus did also. Is there any merit to this claim? Also, is there any validity to the argument that uterine fibroids produce toxins? Next message: L.: "Re: Inflammation down below" Previous message: William D.
