Follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) is expressed on the plasma membrane of granulosa cells in the ovarian follicles. FSHR is involved in the development and maturation of Graafian follicles, along with …
Endometriosis is a chronic endocrine and inflammatory disease commonly presenting with dysmenorrhea, pelvic pain, and/or infertility. Despite the importance of menstrual symptoms, the impact of menstruation on stress is still …
Background: Emerging evidence suggests that lipedema may share hormonal, inflammatory, and genetic mechanisms with gynecologic diseases, particularly endometriosis. However, the extent and nature of these interrelationships remain poorly characterized, supporting …
