Poor ovarian response (POR) patients often face the risk of not having enough competent oocytes. Then, aspirating small follicles could serve as a strategy to increase their number. Many efforts have been addressed to associate follicular s…
Mercury (Hg) cytotoxicity, which is largely mediated through oxidative stress (OS), can be relieved with antioxidants. Thus, we aimed to study the effects of Hg alone or in combination with 5 nM N-Acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) on the primary endo…
Environmental factors that have been linked to an increased endometriosis risk include exposure to di-(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate (DEHP), an endocrine disruptor. This study aims to investigate whether DEHP in vitro exposure in primary endometr…
