Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent chronic systemic inflammatory disease that affects 10 % of people assigned female at birth. Despite its prevalence, mean diagnostic delay is 4-11 years. Although much research …
Endometriosis and uterine leiomyomas are common chronic gynecologic diseases associated with immune dysregulation, inflammation and aberrant cellular proliferation, processes that contribute to increased oxidative stress. Current management relies largely on …
Randomized controlled clinical trials have shown that symptoms of chronic pain conditions, such as endometriosis, can be improved with the use of specialized health apps. In the current study, real-world …
Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology (PAG) emerged to bridge gaps between pediatrics and adult gynecology, while pediatric surgeons currently provide most operative gynecologic care for young patients. The goal of this …

The uterus is an essential organ for fetal development in most mammals. Uterine glands, highly conserved structures in the mammalian uterus, play critical roles in the establishment and maintenance of …
We examined clinical, genetic, and molecular links between sleep disorders and endometriosis. Women aged 20-54 years in NHANES 2005-2006 were analyzed with survey-weighted logistic regression. Bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) …
Deep endometriosis affecting the lateral pelvic structures (LPS) is a complex and often underdiagnosed manifestation of the disease. The authors review the anatomic features of the LPS and underscore the …
The female reproductive system is a hormonally driven, immune-active, and structurally dynamic system in which estrogen signaling, inflammation, and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling interact to support essential reproductive processes. Cyclical …
