Endometriosis is a chronic, hormone-dependent disease characterized by altered endometrial stromal function, but mechanistic and translational studies have been hindered by the lack of tractable human models. Here, we establish …
Endometrial organoids are a powerful, 3D in vitro system for studying reproductive function and disease since they are more physiologically representative than 2D cell models. However, optimal methods for the …
Endometriosis, defined as the ectopic growth of endometrial tissue outside of the uterine cavity, is an inflammatory and hormone-dependent disease that causes excruciating pelvic pain, infertility, and significantly decreases quality …
Endometriosis affects approximately 10% of reproductive-age women and up to 20% of those with infertility. Despite rising awareness in adults, adolescent endometriosis remains underrecognized, especially in Southeast Asia. This study …
Endometriosis is frequently managed with hormonal suppression that can induce hypoestrogenism during a period when many patients are still accruing peak bone mass. This narrative review summarizes current clinical and …
Exercise may be an effective tool to improve symptoms and quality of life in those with endometriosis. However, the optimal dose to elicit such changes is unknown. This study will …
BackgroundResearch has suggested that some gynecological conditions are associated with body image, disordered eating behaviors, and mental health concerns. This has been studied in polycystic ovarian syndrome and endometriosis populations, …
Pain is a defining symptom of endometriosis reducing quality of life and increasing the risk of psychological disorders. We conducted an open-label, randomized, controlled trial to investigate whether structured coaching …
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. …
Background: This review aims to systematically summarize the lineage origins, subtype classification, and functional dynamics of endometrial macrophages, clarify their mechanisms of action in normal reproductive physiology (menstrual cycle, pregnancy) …
