BACKGROUND: The management of endometriomata remains a challenge, with current options associated with either high recurrence rates or significant reduction in ovarian reserve. Ethanol sclerotherapy has been suggested as a treatment that is…
BACKGROUND: Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are prominent in the human uterine mucosa and play physiological roles in pregnancy. ILC3 are the second-most common ILC subset in the uterine mucosa, but their role remains unclear. METHODS: Here w…
The complex and dynamic cellular composition of the human endometrium remains poorly understood. Previous endometrial single-cell atlases profiled few donors and lacked consensus in defining cell types. We introduce the Human Endometrial Ce…
Innate lymphoid cells (ILC) are prominent in the human uterine mucosa and play physiological roles in pregnancy. ILC3 are the second-most common ILC subset in the uterine mucosa, but their role remains unclear. Here we define two subsets of…
Analysis of ILC3 distribution and function at the human uterine mucosal interface.
Abstract The human endometrium, the inner lining of the uterus, exhibits complex, dynamic changes throughout the menstrual cycle in response to ovarian hormones. Aberrant response of endometrial cells to hormones is associated with multiple…
ObjectivesTo identify whether covid-19 vaccines are associated with menstrual changes in order to address concerns about menstrual cycle disruptions after covid-19 vaccination.DesignGlobal, retrospective cohort study of prospectively collec…
COVID-19 vaccination protects against the potentially serious consequences of SARS-CoV2 infection, but some people have been hesitant to receive the vaccine because of reports that it could affect menstrual bleeding. To determine whether th…

Objective: Assess whether coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination impacts menstrual bleeding quantity. Design Retrospective cohort Setting Five global regions Populations Vaccinated and unvaccinated regularly cycling individuals us…
BackgroundUterine natural killer cells (uNK) are the most abundant lymphocytes found in the decidua during implantation and in first trimester pregnancy. They are important for early placental development, especially trophoblast invasion an…
Objective: Clinicians and regulators are receiving reports of changes to menstrual periods following COVID-19 vaccination. However, it is unclear if the two are biologically linked. If they are, people using hormonal contraception are pred…
Surveillance schemes are receiving increasing numbers of reports from people who have noticed a change to their period following COVID-19 vaccination. In order to investigate this, we retrospectively recruited 1273 people who have a record …
Uterine NK cells (uNK) play a role in the regulation of placentation, but their functions in nonpregnant endometrium are not understood. We have previously reported suppression of endometrial bleeding and alteration of spiral artery morphol…
