Postpartum uterine diseases are associated with significant imbalance in the levels of biogenic amines (BAs) in rat uterus. Mast cells (MCs) are the main suppliers of BAs such as serotonin, catecholamines, and histamine in uterus. There is limited evidence of the BA-positive elements involved in the physiological regulation of uterus during postpartum involution.

Objective: The objective of this study is to identify the changes in the density of uterine sympathetic nerves implicated in the pathology of endometriosis, adenomyosis, and delayed uterine involution. The present study aims to ascertain 'serotonin' and 'catecholamine' concentrations in mesenteric mast cells (MCs), and structural elements of nerve fibers across the perivascular plexuses (PPs) and single sympathetic nerve terminals (SST).
