EIN Diagnosis:
Proliferative endometrium with architectural change of unopposed

Comments:
This is a classic "anovulatory" or disordered proliferative endometrium in

which the endometrial compartment is uniformly peppered with dilated

and irregular glands, without any localizing lesions. Stromal volume

exceeds gland volume.   Random proximity of occasional glands 

forms pseudo-localizing lesions.  These can be recognized by lack of cytologic change

and loose perimeter.
