Endometriosis (EMs) is increasingly recognized as a chronic inflammatory disease in which innate immune dysregulation plays an important role. Its immunopathological features include macrophage polarization imbalance, with M1-skewed activation in …
Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent systemic inflammatory disorder characterized by ectopic implantation of endometrial-like tissue, primarily on the ovaries, pelvic peritoneum, and bowel. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) …
Background/Objectives: Female infertility represents a significant public health issue. Available evidence supports the hypothesis that the gut microbiota may play an essential role in women's reproductive health and may serve …
Background and Objectives: Endometriosis is associated with chronic inflammation, immune dysregulation, oestrogen-dependent growth, oxidative stress, altered steroid hormone metabolism, compromised epithelial barrier integrity, and the production of bioactive microbial metabolites. …
EMs is a chronic, estrogen-dependent systemic inflammatory disorder defined by the ectopic implantation of endometrial glands and stroma and is frequently associated with dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, infertility, and substantial …
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a common dysbiotic condition associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, including preterm delivery, and its diagnosis remains challenging due to limitations of conventional methods and the lack …
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 …
Emerging evidence suggests microbial dysbiosis may contribute to gynaecological pathologies, including endometriosis and recurrent implantation failure (RIF). The vaginal microbiome is well-characterised, with Lactobacillus-dominance as a hallmark of health, yet …
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 …
The gut microbiota plays a crucial function in reproductive well-being and is vital for maintaining fundamental physiological balance. This article surveys the mutual relationships between the gut flora and the …
