Photomicrographs of the representative uterine cross-section at different magnification from all experimental groups. NC group showing normal histological appearance with normal endometrium wall (red arrow), and endometrial gland (EG) (black arrow). PC group displaying a thin endometrium wall with lesser EG. PCC group showing visible endometrium wall with abundant EG. PFD250 group showing less visible endometrium wall with several. PFD500 and PFD1000 displaying an improvement in the histological structures by the presence of EG, visible endometrium wall, and thick uterus which were almost comparable with the NC group. The cross-sections were stained with heamatoxylin-eosin (H&E) with 4X and 40X magnification. NC: normal control; PC: letrozole-induced PCOS control; PCC: clomiphene citrate; PFD250: 250 mg/kg/day of F. deltoidea; PFD500: 500 mg/kg/day of F. deltoidea, and PFD1000: 1000 mg/kg/day of F. deltoidea
