OBJECTIVES: The objective of the study was to evaluate the impact of male human papillomavirus (HPV) sexually transmitted infection on sperm parameters, embryo morphokinetics, and clinical pregnancy outcomes in assisted reproductive technol…

Mycotoxins are widespread food contaminants, and urinary biomarkers reflect recent dietary exposure. Although mycotoxins have been implicated in reproductive toxicity, their impact on human oocyte and embryo development remains poorly chara…

Letrozole and other aromatase inhibitors are increasingly recognized as first-line ovulation induction (OI) medications, offering an efficient and physiologic approach to ovarian stimulation that enhances outcomes in reproductive medicine. …

This manuscript examines the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in the diagnosis and treatment of uterine fibroids and uterine sarcomas, offering a comprehensive assessment of AI-supported diagnostic and therapeutic techniques. Through th…

Background: Adenomyosis and endometriosis are complex, estrogen-dependent gynecological conditions increasingly diagnosed in adolescents. While traditionally considered diseases of reproductive-age women, emerging evidence suggests a possib…

Background and Objectives: Ectopic pregnancy (EP) is a life-threatening medical and surgical condition. Tubal stump EPs and heterotopic pregnancies can occur after in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET), even after salpingectomy. T…

OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to evaluate the utility and safety of ancillary maneuvers during oocyte retrieval for patients with endometrioma that makes ovum pick-up hard due to poor ovarian surgical accessibility. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Case…

Oocyte-cumulus cell interaction is essential for oocyte maturation and competence. The bidirectional crosstalk network mediated by gap junctions is fundamental for the metabolic cooperation between these cells. As cumulus cells exhibit a mo…

Genetic anomalies in oocyte maturation present significant fertility and embryonic development challenges. This review explores the intricate mechanisms of nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation, emphasizing the genetic and molecular factors co…

In recent years, the relationship between the microbiota and various aspects of health has become a focal point of scientific investigation. Although the most studied microbiota concern the gastrointestinal tract, recently, the interest has…

In women with proven infertility and deep endometriosis (DE), optimal management is controversial. To date, there is no clear evidence on the association between infertility and different stages of rASRM, nor is there clear guidance from le…

Isthmocele is a gynecological condition characterized by a disruption in the uterine scar, often associated with prior cesarean sections. This anatomical anomaly can be attributed to inadequate or insufficient healing of the uterine wall fo…

In eutocic labor, the autonomic nervous system is dominated by the parasympathetic system, which ensures optimal blood flow to the uterus and placenta. This study is focused on the detection of the quantitative presence of catecholamine (C)…

Combined oral contraceptives (COC), are among the most widely used contraceptive methods in the world today. Despite the different changes in terms of estrogen/progestogen combinations and dosages, the thromboembolic risk for a woman who ta…

Follitropin delta (Δ) is a recombinant human follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH), like natural human FSH, that can stimulate the development and growth of multiple follicles. Treatment with Follitropin-Δ may cause mild to severe adverse rea…

The vaginal microbiota plays a critical role in the health of the female genital tract, and its composition contributes to gynecological disorders and infertility. Lactobacilli are the dominant species in the female genital tract: their pro…

After the controlled ovarian stimulation (COS), the number of cumulus oocyte complexes collected is lower than predicted. The aim of this study is to understand if there is a possible reason for that deficient ovarian response. It was hypot…

One emerging problem for onco-gynecologists is the incidence of premenopausal patients under 40 years of age diagnosed with stage I Endometrial Cancer (EC) who want to preserve their fertility. Our review aims to define a primary risk asses…
