BACKGROUND: Endometriosis and adenomyosis are estrogen-dependent inflammatory conditions frequently associated with impaired fertility. Although progesterone resistance at the tissue level is well documented, it remains unclear whether thes…
Abstract Study question Are progesterone levels lower in women with endometriosis or adenomyosis undergoing an embryo transfer compared to unaffected? Summary answer Progesterone levels before embryo transfer in women with adenomyosis and e…
Endometriosis and autoimmune diseases share a hyper-inflammatory state that might negatively impact the embryo–endometrium crosstalk. Inflammatory and immune deregulatory mechanisms have been shown to impair both endometrial receptivity and…
Abstract Study question To evaluate whether the presence of concomitant autoimmunity in endometriosis patients may affect In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)/Intracytoplasmic Injection (ICSI) outcomes. Summary answer In ‘normo-responders’ patients…
Pathogenesis of endometriosis is still unclear and a role of both innate and adaptive immune system has been postulated. Some recent findings have revealed an increased risk to have concomitant autoimmune disease in women with endometriosis…
Abstract Study question To investigate differences in In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)/Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) outcomes between endometriosis women who do or don’t have a concomitant autoimmune disease. Summary answer Despite a …
BACKGROUND: The advent of flexible CO2 laser fiber to gynecology arena might represent a turning point in the use of laser energy on a large-scale basis in gynecological surgery. However, there might be some concerns regarding the degree of…
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory condition that affects women in their reproductive period causing infertility and pelvic pain. The disease, especially at the ovarian site has been shown to have a detrimental impa…
Background Endometriosis is inherited as a complex genetic trait, and the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs61764370 within the KRAS gene on chromosome subband 12p12.1 has been proposed as a potential candidate gene. By disrupting a bi…
Controversy exists regarding the pathogenesis of endometriotic ovarian cysts. Different and complex theories have been proposed over the years since the description of chocolate cysts by Sampson in 1921. We have herein reviewed findings in …
