Estrogen stimulates corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) expression in endometrial tissue, and CRH signaling contributes to inflammation and pain, suggesting a mechanistic role in endometriosis pathophysiology. We previously identified elevated CRH receptor-1 …
Endometriosis is a common, inflammatory condition impacting 200 million women and those assigned female at birth, where 25-40% experience infertility. Ovarian endometriosis is known to decrease anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) levels …
Neonatal uterine bleeding (NUB) has been hypothesized as a relatively common early-life event potentially linked to the later development of endometriosis through retrograde menstruation. However, its true prevalence and biological …
This exploratory pilot study aimed to assess the preliminary clinical effects of leuprorelin acetate microspheres for injection [gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a)] combined with levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) in treating endometriosis …
This study aims to develop and validate a Multi-Dimensional Computational Screening (MDCS) strategy to identify bioactive components by jointly considering target affinity, exposure potential, and safety, using Liangdi decoction (LDD) …
ENDOMETRIOSIS: I was pumped full of hormones and sent on my way... The Southern Star
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 …
Endometriosis (EMs) is a common cause of ovarian dysfunction and infertility, closely linked to iron overload-induced oxidative stress and ferroptosis. While electroacupuncture (EA) has shown promise in treating reproductive disorders, …
Estradiol (E2), a sex steroid hormone molecule, plays a key role in regulating the actin and shape dynamics of cells in a multitude of normal and pathophysiological conditions. While cytoskeletal …
Women are less likely to have a stroke compared with men, but certain sex-specific risk factors can increase their risk for ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke later in life. The 2024 …
