Efficacy of Low-Dose Estrogen–Progestins and Progestins in Japanese Women with Dysmenorrhea: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-analysis
·doi:10.1007/s12325-022-02298-9

INTRODUCTION: Although several studies suggest beneficial effects of low-dose estrogen-progestins (LEPs) and progestins on dysmenorrhea in Japanese women, the difference in efficacy between drugs remains unknown. METHODS: We identified stud…

Dienogest inhibits C-C motif chemokine ligand 20 expression in human endometriotic epithelial cells
European journal of obstetrics, gynecology, and reproductive biology ·doi:10.1016/j.ejogrb.2017.04.048

OBJECTIVE: C-C motif chemokine ligand 20 is thought to contribute to the development of endometriosis by recruiting Th17 lymphocytes into endometriotic foci. The present study investigated the effects of dienogest, a progesterone receptor a…

Effect of dienogest administration on angiogenesis and hemodynamics in a rat endometrial autograft model
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/deq241

BACKGROUND: We aimed to establish an endometrial autograft model in rats that would allow for repetitive in vivo analyses of angiogenesis. Dienogest (DNG) is an orally active progestin used for the treatment of endometriosis. We investigate…
