The Paradox of Endometriosis in Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser Syndrome: Applying Three Criteria to Discriminate Between Retrograde Menstruation/Implantation and Coelomic Metaplasia/Embryonic Cell Rests Theories.
Background/Objectives: The scientific community is still divided between supporters of the implantation theory and researchers who advocate the theory of coelomic metaplasia/embryonic cell remnants to explain the initiation of endometriosis. …
The value of a non-invasive bladder sensitivity paradigm in chronic pelvic pain.
We explore bladder sensitivity profiles in females with chronic pelvic pain, using a non-invasive bladder sensitivity paradigm. We aim to determine how profiles differ between groups defined by symptoms; groups …

The letrozole use in reproductive medicine: Beyond aromatase inhibition - a comprehensive review.
Letrozole and other aromatase inhibitors are increasingly recognized as first-line ovulation induction (OI) medications, offering an efficient and physiologic approach to ovarian stimulation that enhances outcomes in reproductive medicine. By …
Abuse history as a modifier of symptom phenotype in endometriosis: Insights from a multidimensional retrospective cohort.
Endometriosis is a heterogeneous pain condition with variable symptom expression. Abuse history has been associated with amplified pain, gastrointestinal symptoms, and central sensitization in varying populations; however, whether these effects …
Metabolomics Analysis Reveals Gut Microbiota-Associated Sakuranin Modulates Endometrial Stem Cell Differentiation and Inflammation to Alleviate Pain in Endometriosis.
Endometriosis (EMS) is characterized by pain symptoms that seriously affect patients' quality of life. Gut microbiome-related metabolites (GMRM) play an important role in the process of EMS. However, the role …
A Previous History of Endometriosis Elevates Irritable Bowel Syndrome Risk in Middle-Aged and Older Women: A UK Biobank Cohort Study of 225,703 Participants.
Endometriosis (EMT) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) disproportionately affect middle-aged and older women, where overlapping symptoms (e.g., chronic pelvic pain, bloating) and shared inflammatory mechanisms may drive comorbidity. However, large-scale …
