Galectin-1 is overexpressed in eutopic endometrium of endometriotic women (ee) when compared to eutopic endometrium of healthy women (he), *p<0.05 and galectin-1 shows an abundant expression in ectopic endometrium (e) when compared to eutopic endometrium of the same endometriotic women (ee), **p<0.01.
