Background/Objectives: To explore potential dry eye-related ocular surface functional alterations in women at the time of first diagnosis of endometriosis or adenomyosis in a real-world clinical setting. Methods: This was a cross-sectional …

PurposeDoes fertility preservation (FP) through oocyte cryopreservation provide realistic reproductive opportunities for diminished ovarian reserve (DOR)? Literature suggests cumulative live birth rates of 30-45% with 8-10 oocytes under 35 …

All analyses were conducted using RevMan 5.4 and R.Sensitivity analysis Meta-analysis was performed using a random-effects model to account for interstudy variability.Heterogeneity was assessed with the I statistic.For each comparison group…

Endometriosis (EM), a chronic inflammatory condition predominantly affecting women of reproductive age, has been linked to an elevated risk of thrombosis, though its underlying molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood. In this ca…

Background: Accelerated atherosclerosis in patients with endometriosis has been hypothesised, and lifestyle improvement might control cardiovascular risk. We explored cardiometabolic markers and oxidative stress and evaluated the effects of…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic and inflammatory disease associated with pelvic pain. Dietary changes may be therapeutic for chronic inflammatory processes, reducing visceral input. The aim was to evaluate the role of dietary changes…

Laparoscopic surgery was originally considered the gold standard in the treatment of endometriosis-related infertility. Assisted reproductive technology (ART) was indicated as second-line treatment or in the case of male factor. The combine…

The homocysteine pathway in the preconception period should be evaluated to highlight micronutrient deficiencies and warrants optimal multivitamin supplementation, before Assisted Reproduction, as preconception care. We conducted a retrospe…

PurposeTo evaluate the influence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in men of serodiscordant couples on the reproductive outcomes.Materials and methodsA total of 134 infertile couples were included in this retrospective single-center coho…

The relationship between endometriosis and subclinical atherosclerosis represents an emerging topic in women’s health, as women with endometriosis are at higher risk of cardiovascular disease later in life. We investigated metabolic paramet…

We present data from three Caucasian men with Zinner syndrome who attended our center for the treatment of primary couple's infertility. Each patient was scheduled for conventional testicular sperm extraction (cTESE) and cryopreservation. S…

Endometriosis is a gynecological disease characterized by pain and infertility. The diagnosis is very often made during the infertility work-up, together with other reproductive diseases and uterine disorders. A retrospective cohort study w…

PurposeTo estimate the contribution of cryopreservation to the cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) after law modification in Italy in the era of vitrification and freeze-all.MethodsThe Italian National Registry performed a cycle-based data co…

The pathophysiology of severe endometriosis in young women remains unknown. Menorrhagia, or heavy and prolonged menstrual bleeding, is the most common symptom experienced by women with von Willebrand disease (vWD) and represents a possible …

Abstract Objective Endometriosis is a complex disease, and pain is an important component of the syndrome. One of the most used methods to assess pain is the visual analogue scale (VAS). The aim of the present research was to study the pain…

Oxidative stress plays a major role in critical biological processes in human reproduction. However, a reliable and biologically accurate indicator of this condition does not yet exist. On these bases, the aim of this study was to assess an…

To study whether unoperated ovarian endometrioma(s) or its surgical excision led to a modified pattern of ovarian decay with increasing female age. A sectional analysis of basal follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and ovarian response to gon…

IntroductionThe influence of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) on sexual function has been poorly studied. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of DIE on sexual function by administering questionnaires to women.MethodsWomen …

We assessed the outcome of pregnancy in women with a history of recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) following treatment with low-dose human menopausal gonadotropin (HMG)+progesterone or progesterone alone. This single-center retrospective cohort…

Objectives The objective of the study was to evaluate the correlation between endometrioma‐associated pain and lesion vascularization as measured with 3‐dimensional power Doppler transvaginal sonography. Methods Endometriomas were examined,…
