Endometriosis is a chronic, hormone-dependent condition affecting an estimated 190 million women worldwide. Our understanding of hormonal contributions to endometriosis pathophysiology is incomplete, hindering the identification of diagnostic biomarkers and …
The human microbiome, a dynamic endocrine organ, exerts profound systemic influence through the production of bioactive metabolites. While the microbiome-gut-brain axis is well-established, the direct conduit between the gut microbiota …
Research on the association between urinary heavy metals, phthalates, phytoestrogens (PEs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and endometriosis (EM) is limited. Data were from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey …
This systematic review investigated the impact of conjugated estrogens/bazedoxifene (CE/BZA) for treating perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms in patients with a history of endometriosis.
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 chronic, oestrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder affecting up to 10% of reproductive-age women, associated with pelvic pain, infertility, and reduced quality of life. Emerging evidence implicates the vaginal microbiome …
Endometriosis is associated with nociceptive pain, as well as peripheral and central sensitization. Evidence-based treatment suggestions for controlling endometriosis should be based on the convergence of the best scientific evidence, …
Estrogens play an important role throughout a woman's life; therefore, disrupting their physiological production will alter hormonal balance with consequences for estrogen-related conditions, such as endometriosis and adenomyosis. The gut …
To investigate the therapeutic potential of phytoestrogens in the management of endometriosis and to elucidate their mechanisms of action based on current preclinical and clinical evidence.
