Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autoinflammatory disease characterized by periodic fever, serositis, and arthritis. In women, FMF attacks can sometimes be triggered by the menstrual cycle. Once diagnosed, prophylactic …
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification is a widespread and reversible epigenetic alteration in eukaryotic mRNA, playing a pivotal role in various biological functions. Its significance in female reproductive development and associated diseases …
Over the last decades, human infertility has become a major concern in public health, with severe societal and health consequences. Growing evidence shows that endocrine disruptors chemicals (EDCs) have been …
The paper describes the treatment of a 27-year-old woman with a history of infertility, heavy menstrual periods, and severe endometriosis with bilateral hydrosalpinx. The patient received hormonal treatment with triptorelin …
