BACKGROUND: Endometriosis, affecting ~10% of women of reproductive age, is associated with infertility and adverse pregnancy outcomes. The condition is classified into superficial peritoneal endometriosis (SUP), ovarian endometriomas (OMA),…

Endometriosis, affecting approximately 10% of reproductive-aged women globally, poses significant challenges, including chronic pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, and infertility. In low- and middle-income countries like India, accessibility to aff…

OBJECTIVE: To study clinical, surgical characteristics and the relationship between endometriosis lesion types and conception rate after surgery in infertile women with endometriosis. METHODS: A prospective, multicenter cohort of 204 women …

Recent data suggest that the DNA damage response (DDR) is altered in the eutopic endometrium (EE) of women with endometriosis and this probably ensues in response to higher DNA damage encountered by the EE in endometriosis. DDR operates in …

Endometriosis is a public health disorder affecting ∼ 247 million women globally and ∼ 42 million women in India. Women with endometriosis suffer from dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, dyspareunia, dyschezia, fatigue, depression, and infer…
