Ovarian endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder in which endometrial stromal cells are key cellular contributors to hormone-immune crosstalk and lesion persistence. Here, we isolated paired eutopic (NESC) and ectopic …
Endometriosis affects approximately 10% of reproductive-aged women worldwide and is a leading cause of chronic pelvic pain. Despite its high prevalence and substantial socioeconomic burden, the mechanisms underlying endometriosis-associated pain …
Background: Endometriosis affects 10-15% of reproductive-aged women and is a leading cause of infertility through anatomical, inflammatory, and molecular mechanisms. Objective: This review synthesizes current evidence on the pathophysiology of …
Background/Objectives: Endometrial B-cell lymphoma 6 (BCL6) overexpression has been proposed as a marker of progesterone resistance, occult endometriosis, and endometrial dysfunction in infertile women. Its possible association with reproductive outcomes …
Endometriosis affects an estimated 5-10% of women of reproductive age and presents with substantial clinical and biological heterogeneity. Recent clinical guidelines have shifted toward symptom-guided diagnosis supported by expert imaging, …
Endometriosis (EM) and chronic endometritis (CE) are both implicated in female infertility, yet the relationship between them remains incompletely understood. In this narrative review, we synthesize non-systematically selected clinical and …
Background: Endometriosis is traditionally conceptualized as a localized gynecological disorder characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrial tissue. However, high recurrence rates following apparently complete surgical excision challenge this lesion-based …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent disorder defined by ectopic endometrial-like tissue growth, persistent inflammation, and aberrant innervation. Emerging evidence indicates that disease progression and symptom severity are driven by a …
Endometriosis and adenomyosis are estrogen-dependent inflammatory conditions frequently associated with impaired fertility. Although progesterone resistance at the tissue level is well documented, it remains unclear whether these conditions are associated …
Are there histological and immunohistochemical patterns of superficial peritoneal endometriotic lesions of symptomatic patients that characterize non-response to dienogest treatment and may suggest progesterone resistance?
