Objectives: To evaluate the impact of hormonal therapy on the evolution of painful symptoms in premenopausal women with adenomyosis, with or without concomitant endometriosis, over an 18-month follow-up period. This …
Biomaterials for drug delivery offer significant advantages over conventional medications, including enhanced cellular uptake, improved drug stability, targeted delivery, and controlled drug release. Cutting-edge nanodrugs delivery approaches such as drugs …
Catamenial pneumothorax (CP) is a rare form of spontaneous pneumothorax associated with thoracic endometriosis. We report a case of CP with histologically proven diaphragmatic endometriosis successfully managed by combined surgical …

Gonadotropin-releasing hormone pulsatility is under the influence of hypothalamic neuropeptides, especially neurons expressing kisspeptin, neurokinin B, and dynorphin. These hypothalamic cells are called KNDy neurons. By integrating hormonal and environmental …
Endometriosis, a chronic gynecological disorder characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrial-like tissue, is associated with severe pelvic pain, infertility, and profound immune dysregulation. Despite advances in hormonal therapy and …
