Although qualitative research on dyspareunia has increased in recent years, most studies have focused on women's individual experiences or on specific difficulties within the couple, leaving underexplored how partners jointly …
Endometriosis is a systemic inflammatory disease in which immune dysregulation and oxidative stress contribute to pain and impaired quality of life. This study aimed to examine whether antioxidant and inflammatory …
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a necessary but insufficient cause of cervical cancer (CC) and reflects a long-standing host-virus equilibrium shaped by immune control, viral persistence, and latency. The transition …
Background/Objectives: Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological condition affecting approximately 10% of women of reproductive age and is associated with chronic pain, fatigue, infertility, and reduced quality of life. Beyond its …
Bladder deep endometriosis is an uncommon but clinically significant phenotype of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE), and the coexistence of full-thickness detrusor disease with deep myometrial infiltration of the anterior uterine …
The female reproductive tract (FRT), particularly the vagina, has traditionally been regarded as a sterile environment. However, it is now recognized that the vagina is a complex, dynamic ecosystem dominated …
Female reproductive tissues repeatedly undergo controlled inflammation, immune adaptation, and tissue repair. Interleukin-33 (IL-33) and its receptor suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (ST2) sit at the center of these processes, but …
Endometriosis (EMS) remains understudied in effective management strategies. The interplay between macrophage dysfunction and microbiota-derived immune signals emerges as a potential mechanism in EMS pathogenesis, suggesting its relevance for future …
Neonatal uterine bleeding (NUB) has been hypothesized as a relatively common early-life event potentially linked to the later development of endometriosis through retrograde menstruation. However, its true prevalence and biological …
Advances in kidney transplantation have transformed survival and quality of life for women with end-stage renal disease, necessitating a focus on long-term health care for this population. Female kidney transplant …
