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 …
The pathogenesis and progression of endometriosis may involve a complex combination of multiple factors, including chronic inflammation and oxidative stress. Hormonal therapy, the current standard for pharmacotherapy in endometriosis, causes …
Progesterone plays a pivotal role in implantation and ongoing pregnancy. In the context of assisted reproductive technology (ART), and in particular frozen embryo transfer (FET), increasing evidence suggests that serum …
A new humoral factor has been detected, within a project aiming to disclose the body's reproductive hormonal brake against tissue overgrowth, micrin ('my-crin'). Factor purification involved fractionation of ovine and …
This study aims to explore the application value of stromal cell-derived factor (CXCL12), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) in the diagnosis, staging, and clinical manifestations …
Background: Endometriosis is associated with infertility and impaired assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes, potentially due to an altered follicular microenvironment characterized by chronic inflammation. This study investigates the systemic and …
Background/Objectives: Endometriosis is a prevalent gynecological illness associated with chronic pain, inflammation, and infertility, as ectopic endometrial lesions are formed. No fully effective treatment is available, and the pathogenesis of …
This study aims to investigate the differences in response to dienogest (DNG) therapy among patients with 3 different phenotypes of endometriosis: ovarian endometrioma (OMA), superficial peritoneal endometriosis (SUP), and deep …
Background/Objectives: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by ectopic endometrial tissue growth and is strongly associated with oxidative stress; however, systemic biomarkers reflecting this stress response remain limited. Advanced …
