BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis is a benign gynecological disorder associated with subfertility, pelvic pain and abnormal uterine bleeding that have significant consequences for the health and quality of life of women. Histologically, it is defined…
Endometriosis is a frequent, chronic, inflammatory gynecological disease characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrial tissue causing pain and infertility. Macrophages have a central role in lesion establishment and maintenance by dr…
RESEARCH QUESTION: What are the perinatal outcomes and especially the risk of small for gestational age (SGA) babies born after frozen versus fresh embryo transfer in mothers affected by endometriosis undergoing treatment with assisted repr…
RESEARCH QUESTION: Is there a follicular fluid-specific metabolic profile in deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) depending on the presence of an associated ovarian endometrioma (OMA) that could lead to the identification of biomarkers for…
The freeze-all strategy is gaining popularity worldwide as an alternative to the conventional fresh embryo transfer. It consists of cryopreservation of the entire embryo cohort and the embryo transfer in a subsequent cycle that takes place …
OBJECTIVE: To investigate if there are any obvious clinical factors associated with delayed blastulation at day 6 (D6) compared with day 5 (D5). DESIGN: Monocentric observational cohort study from November 2012 to December 2018. SETTING: …
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between the endometriosis phenotype and the age at menarche. DESIGN: An observational, cross-sectional study using prospectively collected data (Canadian Task Force classification II-2). SETTING: Sin…
OBJECTIVE: To compare the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) lesions before and after pregnancy. DESIGN: Retrospective study. SETTING: A single French university tertiary referral hospital. …
OBJECTIVE: To examine whether serum antimüllerian hormone (AMH) levels correlate with the size of ovarian endometrioma (OMA). DESIGN: An observational cross-sectional study. SETTING: University hospital. PATIENT(S): Two hundred and sixty…
BACKGROUND: Many women whose fertility may have been impaired by endometriosis require assisted reproductive technology (ART) in order to become pregnant. However, the influence of ovarian endometriosis (OMA) on ovarian responsiveness to hy…
OBJECTIVE: To study the prevalence of oligo-anovulation in women suffering from endometriosis compared to that of women without endometriosis. DESIGN: A single-center, cross-sectional study. SETTING: University hospital-based research cen…
BACKGROUND: Controlled ovarian stimulation in assisted reproduction technology (ART) may alters endometrial receptivity by an advancement of endometrial development. Recently, technical improvements in vitrification make deferred frozen-tha…
BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis (ADE) is an enigmatic uterine disorder. Several types have been previously described: diffuse adenomyosis (DIF-ADE), focal adenomyosis (FOC-ADE), and association of focal and diffuse lesions (FOC/DIF-ADE). Abnormal i…
BACKGROUND: The 'Freeze all' strategy, which consists of cryopreservation of all embryos after the ovarian stimulation has undergone extensive development in the past decade. The time required for the endometrium to revert to a prestimulati…
Endometriosis is a benign chronic inflammatory disease, whose pathogenesis is still unclear. Endometriosis is responsible for infertility and/or pelvic pain. One of the most important features of the disease is the heterogeneity (clinical a…
Endometriosis is a chronic disease. The pathogenesis is actually still unclear. Endometriosis is responsible for infertility and/or pelvic pain. One of the most important features of the disease is the heterogeneity (clinical and anatomical…
Progress with cryopreservation techniques have enabled development of the deferred frozen-thawed embryo transfer (DET) strategy as an alternative to relying on fresh embryo transfers. With DET, the entire embryo cohort is cryopreserved, and…
STUDY QUESTION: What is the relationship between endometriosis phenotypes superficial peritoneal endometriosis (SUP), ovarian endometrioma (OMA), deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) and the adenomyosis appearance by magnetic resonance ima…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of assisted reproduction technology (ART) on painful symptoms and quality of life (QoL) in women who have endometriosis as compared with disease-free women. DESIGN: Prospective controlled, observational co…
BACKGROUND: Assisted reproductive technology is one of the therapeutic options offered for managing endometriosis-associated infertility. Yet, published data on assisted reproductive technology outcome in women affected by endometriosis are…
