Endometriosis is a common, estrogen-driven chronic gynecologic disorder defined by the ectopic growth of endometrial-like tissue within the peritoneal cavity. Existing treatment options, primarily surgery and hormonal therapy, are limited …
Endometriosis is a chronic systemic disease affecting ~10% of women, yet its genetic basis and molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. Hence, here we conducted a genome-wide association study of endometriosis …
BackgroundEndometriosis is a hormone-driven systemic inflammatory condition characterized by endometrial-like lesions which grow throughout the body affecting up to 15% of women worldwide with symptoms including chronic pain, infertility, and …
Endometriomas are a frequent cause of infertility in reproductive-aged women, often requiring surgery. However, cystectomy for large endometriomas may reduce ovarian reserve, as indicated by decreased anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels. …
Chronic pelvic pain is one of the most prevalent syndromes in family medicine, gynecology, and urology. Chronic pelvic pain patients are often misdiagnosed and have unnecessary prolonged suffering. Both misdiagnosis …
Growing evidence highlights the role of microbiota, including those of the gut, reproductive tract, and endometrial tissue, as critical functional drivers in the pathogenesis of endometriosis (EM). Studies have revealed …
Endometriosis is heterogeneous, and evidence for individualised postoperative management is limited. We assessed whether postoperative hormonal therapy exposure is associated with one-year changes in pain domains after first-time endometriosis surgery …
Endometriosis (EMs) affects approximately 10% of reproductive-age women worldwide, yet its pathogenesis remains incompletely understood. Abnormal cell differentiation and somatic mutations in the ectopic endometrial microenvironment play critical roles in …
Endometriosis is a chronic disease that may require surgical intervention under certain circumstances. Although the condition itself is associated with impaired fertility in 30-50% of affected individuals, surgical treatment may …
