Deep infiltrative endometriosis (DIE) is characterized by the infiltration of endometrial tissue into the pelvic organs, such as the rectovaginal septum, utero-ovarian, and uterosacral ligaments. Bowel involvement occurs in approximately …
Adenomyosis is an estrogen-dependent disease featuring chronic inflammation. This study was undertaken to investigate whether the vagal tone is reduced in patients with adenomyosis as compared with healthy women. We …
Rapidly increasing evidence has documented that endocrine disruptors (EDs) contribute substantially to disease and disability, particularly neurodevelopmental disorders, metabolic diseases, reproductive disorders, immune and thyroid dysfunctions, as well as hormone-related …
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological condition defined by the ectopic presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity, often resulting in debilitating symptoms and significant impacts on quality of life. …
There is a lack of reliable data or evidence-based protocol for the management of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) lesions in reproductive age women. This study examines ovarian reserves in women …
The World Endometriosis Research Foundation (WERF) Endometriosis Phenome and Biobanking Harmonisation Project (EPHect) aims to facilitate international research on endometriosis by developing a standardized questionnaire. This study focuses on translating …
Endometriosis-related dysmenorrhea and pelvic pain impose significant economic and quality-of-life burdens. This study evaluated the cost-effectiveness of dienogest compared to gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRH-a) for managing dysmenorrhea and pelvic pain …
Previous studies show that orphan nuclear receptor 4A1 (NR4A1) regulated endometriotic cell growth, survival, estrogen receptor β (ERβ), mTOR signaling and fibrosis. NR4A2 is also expressed in epithelial and stromal …
Background: An average time to diagnosis of 7 years is commonly described for endometriosis; diagnostic delay for adenomyosis is unknown. This cross-sectional study aimed to describe diagnostic delay for endometriosis …
Global fertility rates continue to decline despite advancements in assisted reproductive technologies, highlighting a significant gap in our understanding of the mechanisms underlying preconception physiology. In this commentary, we review …
