Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is a prevalent, disabling syndrome encompassing overlapping disorders such as endometriosis/adenomyosis, bladder pain syndrome/interstitial cystitis, irritable bowel syndrome, vulvodynia, and myofascial pain syndrome. Despite distinct clinical …
The "gut microbiota-mitochondria axis" has become the core hub connecting the metabolism, immunity, and endocrine regulation of gynecological diseases. In this review, the hierarchical regulation mechanism of this axis is …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder characterized by the ectopic implantation and persistence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. Despite its high prevalence and significant impact on quality …
This case-control study investigated whether ovarian endometriosis is associated with altered estrogen metabolism and gut or urogenital microbiota by analyzing enzyme activity, bacterial composition, and variations of estrogen metabolites in …
Endometriosis is a prevalent estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory condition that affects millions of women of reproductive age worldwide. It is characterized by the growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity, …
ProMetrioS is a randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled cross-over trial investigating the effect of a specific multispecies probiotic in patients with endometriosis. The aim of this clinical trial is to determine whether …
The human microbiota is increasingly recognized as a key component of women's reproductive health. This narrative review examines the vaginal, endometrial, and gut microbiota and their roles in the pathogenesis …
