Some basics: The womb is an organ with several tissue types. The endometrial lining (tall cells) are located inside while the cervix (outer opening) is lined by a different flatter cell type. Endometrial cells shed/fall out during menses & are occasionally found on a pap smear. Their presence does not indicate cancer but sometimes lead a doc to do an ultrasound to verify it is not an issue.
