Subtle perturbations imposed to the native intrauterine milieu, such as those caused by a single, low-volume collection of ULF, profoundly disturbs intrauterine composition and pregnancy success. At least 4 d were necessary for the uterus to recover its composition and the functional capacity to carry post-implantation gestation.
