How do unoperated ovarian endometriomas affect ovarian response during ovarian stimulation cycles?
This study aimed to investigate whether women with unilateral and bilateral OMA differ in anxiety symptoms, and secondarily in depressive symptoms and sexual dysfunction symptoms, and to evaluate the independent …
This matched comparative study investigates whether unoperated ovarian endometriomas (OMAs) influence the prevalence of tubal pathology as detected by hysterosalpingography (HSG) in infertile women. A total of 266 infertile women …
Background Fallopian tube pathology accounts for approximately one-third of female factor subfertility. The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) Fertility Guidelines (CG156) recommend hysterosalpingography (HSG) as the first-line …
The impact of endometrioma size on ovarian reserve remains controversial. Although endometriomas are known to reduce anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels, some studies suggest a paradoxical association between larger cysts and …
Obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal anomaly syndrome was first identified by Purslow in 1922 as a result of abnormal embryologic development of the Müllerian (paramesonephric) and Wolffian (mesonephric) ducts. The …
Background: Ovarian cystectomy is standard treatment for endometrioma but is associated with decreased ovarian reserve. Catheter-directed sclerotherapy (CDS) is an ovary-sparing image-guided alternative; however, supporting evidence comprises retrospective comparative and …
Background/Objectives: The treatment options for endometriosis vary depending on individual needs and clinical circumstances. To preserve ovarian reserve, ethanol catheter-directed sclerotherapy may be considered as a treatment option. We compared …
We investigated whether ovarian endometriomas uniformly express functional FSH receptors (FSHR) and respond to FSH by activating transcriptional programs that drive aromatase and steroid hormone production. Endometrioma cyst capsules were …
In women with unilateral endometriosis, how do ovarian endometriomas and their inflammatory content affect oocyte and embryo quality in affected versus healthy ovaries, and what is the impact on ART …
