The success of in vitro fertilization (IVF) and female reproductive capacity are significantly determined by oocyte quality. Increasing data highlights the significance of oxidative stress-a state of imbalance between reactive oxygen specie…

Background: Elastography is an ultrasound-based imaging technology that allows for quantitative measurement of tissue stiffness and elasticity. In reproductive medicine, it is a potential non-invasive method for assessing ovarian activity, …

Background: Epigenetic modifications have an important role in controlling ovarian function, modulating ovarian response and implantation success in Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART). The alterations, such as DNA methylation and non-…

Exosomal microRNAs (ex-miRs), encapsulated in extracellular vesicles (EVs), play a vital role in facilitating paracrine communication among granulosa cells (GCs), cumulus cells (CCs), and the oocyte inside follicular fluid (FF). These small…

Background/Objectives: Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) is the process by which epithelial cells acquire mesenchymal properties, which helps endometriotic cells migrate and invade. This study looks at the expression of E-CADHERIN, a …

IntroductionNatural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (NOTES) via the vagina (vNOTES) has recently appeared on the gynecology horizon as a fresh minimally invasive approach. Although vNOTES for benign adnexal conditions is being incre…

Background: Endometrial receptivity is crucial for successful embryo implantation in assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs). MicroRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs) have emerged as important post-…

BackgroundObesity is a complicated, chronic condition that has a major impact on reproductive health, leading to infertility, anovulation, and poor pregnancy outcomes. It alters the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian (HPO) axis, promotes insuli…

Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) in follicular fluid (FF) are being recognized as important regulators of ovarian function and biomarkers of reproductive success. This systematic analysis investigates FF-derived miRNAs and their relationship …

Nitric oxide (NO) predominantly regulates endometrial receptivity, angiogenesis, immunological tolerance, and trophoblast invasion throughout the implantation period. Both insufficient and excessive nitric oxide production have been linked …

Background/Objectives: Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a disorder that affects women under the age of 40. It is characterized by decreased ovarian function, elevated gonadotropin levels, and decreased estradiol. SARS-CoV-2 disrupts…

Obesity reduces nitric oxide (NO) production due to endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) dysfunction, resulting in oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and chronic inflammation. These factors have a negative impact on reproducti…
