Background/Objectives: Endometriosis is a chronic, inflammatory, estrogen-dependent disease that has historically been underdiagnosed, especially in patients with unexplained infertility. On average, diagnosis is delayed by 11 years, underscoring the need …
(Abstracted from Contraception 2025:150:111016, doi:10.1016/j.contraception.2025.111016) Adenomyosis occurs when ectopic endometrial glands invade the myometrium and can cause symptoms such as an enlarged uterus, heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, infertility, and …
Endometriosis (EMS) is a chronic gynecological disorder with unclear pathogenesis. While the vaginal and gut microbiomes are known to influence EMS, few studies have analyzed both microbiomes integrally. This study …
This study aimed to compare clinical and ultrasound outcomes over 24 months in premenopausal women with ultrasound-diagnosed endometriosis/adenomyosis, never treated surgically, and managed with or without hormonal therapy. We specifically …
To evaluate the performance of transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) using the International Deep Endometriosis Analysis (IDEA) terminology in the detection of deep endometriosis (DE).
The human microbiome, particularly the gut and reproductive tract microbiota, plays a critical role in regulating fertility through complex molecular and immunological mechanisms. This review synthesizes emerging evidence on the …
Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by uterus didelphys, obstructed hemi-vagina, and ipsilateral renal agenesis. This study aims to present a case of Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome seen at Shifa …
Background/Objectives: The assessment of endometriosis (EMS)-associated pain is important, but only very few studies address the potential use of questionnaires for non-invasive prediction of the disease. Methods: In a prospective …
