Progestins are widely used for endometriosis with proven efficacy and favorable safety. Their microvascular effects, however, are not fully understood. We report a 35-year-old woman who developed recurrent hand erythema …
Endometriosis is a common, chronic gynecological disorder characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity, frequently associated with significant morbidities such as pelvic pain and infertility. Elucidating …
Infertility currently affects nearly one in six couples, representing more than 3.3 million people in France. Infertility now occurs in an unprecedented demographic context, marked by a rapid decline in fertility: …
