Personal care products (PCPs) may contain endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) that can impact menstrual health. Despite widespread usage, little is known about the associations of PCP usage, EDC avoidance, and menstrual …
Endometriosis-associated infertility is a complex condition in which the presence of endometrial-like tissue disrupts implantation and early pregnancy. Epigenetic regulators are critical for implantation and decidualization, yet their contribution to …
Endometriosis and endometrial cancer are distinct gynecological conditions that share overlapping biological mechanisms with implications for clinical management. Endometriosis is a chronic, benign disorder characterized by the ectopic implantation of …
Bisphenols and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are ubiquitous environmental endocrine-disrupting chemicals with widespread human exposure and growing concern regarding their reproductive toxicity. This review integrates current experimental and epidemiologic …
To develop a Workplace Health Initiatives Checklist for Women (WHIC‑W), we assessed content validity (expert) and provided initial evidence for construct validity by examining hypothesized cross-sectional associations with burnout, productivity, …
Endometriosis, a chronic inflammatory condition linked to pelvic pain and infertility, is characterized by immune dysfunction involving dysregulated apoptosis and cell proliferation. This case-control study included 87 infertile women undergoing …
Older adults are highly susceptible to adverse effects from potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs). Real-time clinical decision support systems (CDSS) may reduce unsafe prescribing; yet evidence from low- and middle-income countries …
Tubo-ovarian abscess (TOA) is a severe complication of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), but it can also occur in women without prior PID or sexually transmitted infections. Recent studies suggest that …
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) accumulate in reproductive tissues, yet most studies rely on serum measurements. It remains unclear whether serum concentrations adequately reflect levels in target tissues. We evaluated …
Background: Women with endometriosis frequently experience mobility limitations that affect daily functioning. A specific tool to assess these restrictions would help clinicians to better understand patients' functional challenges, facilitating more …
