Accumulating observational evidence suggests an association between thyroid function and endometriosis, though the causal relationship remains unclear. To investigate potential bidirectional causal relationships, including for endometriosis subtypes, we conducted a …
Progesterone resistance in endometriosis reduces the efficacy of progestin. The non-classical progesterone receptor, progesterone receptor membrane component 1 (PGRMC1) may regulate progesterone signaling in the normal endometrium, but its expression …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterised by ectopic endometrial tissue, progressive fibrosis and chronic pain, with a pathogenesis that goes beyond oestrogen dependence. The central question this review seeks …
The human microbiome, a dynamic endocrine organ, exerts profound systemic influence through the production of bioactive metabolites. While the microbiome-gut-brain axis is well-established, the direct conduit between the gut microbiota …

Background/Objectives: Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, including abdominal pain, bloating, altered stool pattern, dyschezia, and nausea, are frequent in women with endometriosis and may persist despite conventional gynecological treatment. The low fermentable …
Chronic endometritis (CE) is a plasma cell-related endometrial inflammatory phenotype that may compromise fertility, while endometriosis (EM) is an immune-mediated inflammatory disorder. However, whether EM is associated with CD138-defined CE …
It has been proved that lipids have an effect on endometriosis, and the plasma atherosclerosis index (AIP), as a new lipid index, has not been proved to be correlative to …
Deep endometriosis: full four-step IDEA ultrasound protocol maximizes sensitivity Vera Health
Sonovaginography (SVG) is a specialized ultrasound technique for evaluating certain locations of deep endometriosis (DE) in the posterior compartments. In this study, we assessed the diagnostic accuracy of saline/gel SVG …
