The prevalence of childhood obesity is increasing worldwide, along with the associated common comorbidities of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease in later life. Motivated by evidence for a strong genetic component, our prior genome-…

BACKGROUND: Ectopic pregnancy and tubal endometriosis directly affect the fallopian tube structure and function, while ovarian cysts and uterine fibroids may indirectly influence tubal physiology. These conditions are associated with infert…

Recent advances in microbiome research have illuminated the complex bidirectional interactions between gut health and reproductive well-being. Understanding the gut microbiome's influence on the reproductive system and vice versa reveals ho…

BackgroundSeptate uterus is a congenital uterine malformation associated with adverse reproductive and obstetrical outcomes. Hysteroscopic septum resection (HSC) with/without balloon stent placement is a treatment option for reconstituting …

Endometriosis is an ectopic implantation of uterine tissue and can affect the thoracic cavity, resulting in Thoracic Endometriosis Syndrome (TES). TES is rare and presents with catamenial pneumothorax, haemothorax, and hemoptysis, often coi…

BackgroundIntraoperative frozen section (IFS) plays a pivotal role in arriving at a diagnosis and guiding toward appropriate surgical management as there is a lack of effective ovarian cancer screening methods. Considering histopathology as…

Introduction Infertility affects approximately 10-15% of couples worldwide. Hysteroscopy and laparoscopy are two newer modalities available for the evaluation of infertility and are complementary rather than mutually exclusive. Each provide…

BackgroundComorbidity of various psychiatric conditions with migraine is common and important. A thorough analysis of mental conditions in migraine is essential to encourage the holistic care of such patients.AimTo assess psychiatric comorb…

Deep endometriosis (DE) is the most severe subtype of endometriosis, with the hallmark of lesions infiltrating adjacent tissue. Abnormal vascularisation has been implicated in contributing to endometriosis lesion development in general, and…

BackgroundPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrinopathy whose heterogeneous genetic basis results in a variable clinical presentation. One of the main clinical features of PCOS is hyperandrogenism which occurs due to dysregula…

Case summaryA 27 years old female presented to gynae OPD with foul smelling discharge per vaginum off and on for a year and was given treatment for PID (Pelvic inflammatory disease) and cervicitis. Pap smear was taken and was reported unsat…

Background: Ovarian cancer (OC) is a diagnostic challenge, with the majority diagnosed at late stages. Existing systematic reviews of diagnostic models either use inappropriate meta-analytic methods or do not conduct statistical comparisons…

BackgroundOvarian cancer (OC) has the highest case fatality rate of all gynaecological cancers. Diagnostic delays are caused by non-specific symptoms. Existing systematic reviews have not comprehensively covered tests in current practice, n…

Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is an irreversible fibro-inflammatory disease of the pancreas with no current targeted therapy. Pirfenidone, an anti-fibrotic and anti-inflammatory drug, is FDA approved for treatment of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibros…

Extraovarian granulosa cell tumors (GCTs) develop from ectopic gonadal tissue situated along the embryonal route of the genital ridge. Primary retroperitoneal tumors are extremely rare, with an incidence of 02% -06% and 80-85% probability o…

Intestinal-type adenocarcinoma is a rare primary vaginal carcinoma. Vaginal adenocarcinomas are most frequently a metastatic lesion, and less commonly, have clear cell histology and occur in young women with diethylstilbestrol (DES) exposur…

Ovarian cancer, and particularly its most frequent type, epithelial ovarian carcinoma, constitutes one of the most dangerous malignant tumors among females. Substantial evidence has described the potential of phytochemicals against ovarian …

Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory disease and is associated etiologically with environmental endocrine disruptor (EED) exposure. 4-nonylphenol (NP), a widely found EED, has weak estrogenic activity and modulates pl…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is complex, but identifying the novel biomarkers, inflammatory molecules, and genetic links holds the key to the enhanced detection, prediction and treatment of both endometriosis and endometriosis related malignan…
