Although endometriosis is a common gynaecological clinical picture in women of reproductive age, diagnosis and therapy often begin late after the onset of symptoms. The explanation probably lies on the one hand in the manifold manifestation…

BACKGROUND: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), especially the gelatinases MMP-2 and MMP-9, play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis by enabling invasion. Doxycycline is a well-tolerated antibiotic and a potent MMP-inhibitor i…

STUDY QUESTION: Is fatigue a frequent symptom of endometriosis? SUMMARY ANSWER: Fatigue is an underestimated symptom of endometriosis as it affects the majority of women with endometriosis, but it is not widely discussed in literature. WHAT…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence of miscarriage in women with endometriosis (WwE) compared with disease-free control women (CW). DESIGN: Cross-sectional analysis nested in a retrospective observational study (n = 940). SETTING: Ho…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease affecting 6%-10% of women of reproductive age and is characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue in localizations outside of the uterine cavity as, e.g., endometriotic ovarian cys…

Class I histone deacetylases (HDACs-1-3) play an important role in steroid hormone-dependent gene expression and in modulating cell survival and proliferation. We analyzed their expression in a tissue microarray including 74 endometriosis s…
