article 2018
Dienogest therapy during the early stages of recurrence of endometrioma might be an alternative therapeutic option to avoid repeat surgeries
Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Research ·doi:10.1111/jog.13725

AIM: We aimed to evaluate whether hormonal therapy immediately after postsurgical recurrence of ovarian endometrioma controls disease progression and can be an alternative therapeutic option to avoid multiple repeat surgeries. METHODS: We e…

Exacerbation of Endometriosis Due To Regulatory T-Cell Dysfunction
The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism ·doi:10.1210/jc.2017-00052

Context: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease associated with altered immune response to endometrial cells facilitating the implantation and proliferation of ectopic endometrial tissues. Although regulatory T (Treg) cells play a …

Increased ipsilateral uterine artery vascular resistance in women with ovarian endometrioma
Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Research ·doi:10.1111/jog.13266

AIM: The aim of this study was to elucidate whether the presence of an ovarian endometrioma is associated with impaired vascular flow. We investigated changes in vascular flow on the ipsilateral and contralateral side of the endometrioma, b…

Dienogest reduces HSD17β1 expression and activity in endometriosis
The Journal of endocrinology ·doi:10.1530/joe-15-0052

Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease. Abnormally biosynthesized estrogens in endometriotic tissues induce the growth of the lesion and worsen endometriosis-associated pelvic pain. Dienogest (DNG), a selective progesterone receptor…
