Mental Health as Essential in Endometriosis and Fertility Care: What Are We Waiting For?

Aberrant Progesterone Receptor (PGR) expression is associated with Estrogen Receptor 1 (ESR1) expression in the endometrium from infertile women with endometriosis.

Estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) and progesterone receptor (PGR) are essential regulators for endometrial receptivity and embryo implantation. Their expression is dysregulated in women with endometriosis-associated infertility. However, the relationship between …

Neutrophil extracellular traps in gynecological disease: pathogenic mechanisms and therapeutic opportunities.

Gynecologic disorders, including infections, sterile inflammatory diseases, endocrine abnormalities, and malignancies, share a common signature of dysregulated immunity within a uniquely hormone-responsive reproductive tract. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are increasingly …

Looking at endometriosis-diagnosis and disease mechanisms through a mechanical lens.

Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder marked by the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, often resulting in pain and infertility and affecting overall quality of life. Despite its …

Endometriosis and Oocyte Quality: Morphological Alterations, Developmental Competence, and Modifiable Strategies for Reproductive Longevity.

Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder that is increasingly recognized as a systemic condition with profound implications for female reproductive potential. In addition to pelvic distortion and impaired folliculogenesis, …

Clinical Characterization of Genital Tract Malformations: A Retrospective Cohort Study on Associations with Endometriosis and Pregnancy Outcomes.

To characterize the clinical phenotypes of congenital genital tract malformations and evaluate their associations with endometriosis (EM) and fertility outcomes.

Differential gene expression profiling of ectopic endometrium reveals key molecular pathways in endometriosis pathogenesis.

Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity and is associated with pain, infertility, and impaired quality of life. Although …

Glycomic Insights in Gynecological Disease: From Molecular Mechanisms to Precision Diagnostics and Therapeutics.

Gynecological diseases-encompassing polycystic ovary syndrome, endometriosis, infertility, and malignancies-represent a significant global health burden affecting women's quality of life, reproductive capacity, and long-term health outcomes. While traditional diagnostics rely on …

Ablation compared with excision in the surgical management of peritoneal endometriosis: a retrospective study of pain, re-operation, and pregnancy outcomes.

The study aimed to evaluate the long-term outcomes of surgical management in patients with peritoneal endometriosis, focusing on postoperative pain trajectories, re-operation rates, fertility outcomes, and the potential influence of …

Therapeutic Effects of Vitamins in Endometriosis Patients: A Systematic Review of Randomized Controlled Trials.

Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory condition affecting approximately 10% of women of reproductive age worldwide. It is characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity, which …
