Endometriosis is a pathological condition characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrial cells, leading to chronic pelvic pain and infertility. Epidemiological studies have associated exposure to dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), …
Endocrine disruptors (EDs) are a heterogeneous group of natural or synthetic chemicals capable of interfering with hormonal regulation. Widely present in plastics, cosmetics, pesticides, food packaging, and household products, they …
This FIGO committee opinion paper addresses the growing body of evidence linking environmental exposures to common gynecologic and reproductive conditions across the life course. From adolescence through menopause, women are …
Background Endometriosis is a pathological condition characterized by the ectopic proliferation of endometrial cells, resulting in chronic pelvic pain and infertility. Exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) has been implicated in …
Globally, endometriosis affects almost 10% of reproductive-aged women, leading to chronic pain and discomfort. Endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs) seem to play a pivotal role as a causal factor. The current manuscript …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory condition that affects multiple organ systems and significantly impairs the quality of life in women of reproductive age. While conventional hormonal therapies may alleviate …
Endometriosis (EMS) significantly impacts women's health and is influenced by genetic factors and environmental endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), which interfere with hormonal balance. Using the Gene Expression Omnibus database, we identified …
Endometriosis is a debilitating condition characterized by the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, leading to chronic pain and inflammation. While its etiology remains complex, emerging evidence implicates environmental …
Over the last decades, human infertility has become a major concern in public health, with severe societal and health consequences. Growing evidence shows that endocrine disruptors chemicals (EDCs) have been …
Exposure to environmental contaminants can result in profound effects on the host immune system. One class of environmental toxicants, known as dioxins, are persistent environmental contaminants termed "forever chemicals". The …
