BACKGROUND: Selecting a suitable and preferable method for endometrial preparation in frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles for women with adenomyosis is still challenging in infertility treatment. OBJECTIVE: To compare 2 artificial endometr…

Abstract Background To evaluate the effect of adding letrozole to the antagonist ovarian stimulation protocol (COS) on in-vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) outcome in endometriosis patients. Methods This random…

BACKGROUND: Fewer studies were on micronutrient intake in women with endometriosis, and the etiology of endometriosis remains unclear between dietary micronutrients and the risk of endometriosis. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate …

This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of NAC plus low dose contraceptive with low dose contraceptives alone. This was a randomised trial on a sample of women who underwent conservative laparoscopic surgery for ovarian endometrioma. …

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a common benign but painful gynecologic condition. Studies suggest that the risk of some types of malignancies such as breast cancer is higher in women with endometriosis. Mammographic breast density (MBD) is kn…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is one of the most common gynecological diseases and is associated with an increased risk of dyspareunia. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate sexual self-efficacy (SSE) and sexual quality of life (SQOL) before…

BACKGROUND: Inflammation and its master regulator, Nuclear Factor-kB (NF-kB), have been implicated in the development of endometriosis. Inhibition of NF-kB pathway using small molecules ameliorated disease progression and reduced the lesion…

BACKGROUND: Nearly 25-50% of infertile women have endometriosis. There are reports of disorders in the expression of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) receptors in women with endometriosis. OBJECTIVE: To examine the effect of in…

The preoperative level of hematological parameters lacks sufficient power for the diagnosis of endometriosis, but they may help doctors make a diagnosis in the clinical setting as auxiliary findings.

Abstract Background Endometriosis is a common benign but painful gynecologic condition. Studies suggest that the risk of some types of malignancies such as breast cancer is higher in women with endometriosis. Mammographic breast density (MB…

Abstract Study question Does inhibiting nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB) signaling by aloe-emodin (AE) or aspirin (Asp), as anti-inflammatory compounds, suppress the invasive activity of stage IV human endometriotic stromal cells? Summary answer E…

Background: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) might increase growth and adhesion of endometrial cells in the peritoneal cavity, and lead to endometriosis. In this study the we evaluate the effect of an antioxidant, acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin…

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to compare the lifestyle factors and SQ between women with and without endometriosis. Also in this essay, the influence of food intake, socio-demographic and clinical characteristics on sleep quality of women wi…

Abstract Background This study aimed to evaluate the impact of lifestyle factors, and sleep quality on endometriosis risk. Methods Of the 156 infertile women approached for the study, 78 women had endometriosis and 78 were included in the c…

Endometriosis is an inflammatory disease; the hallmark of inflammation is over-activation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). The regulatory effects of Resveratrol on MMPs were formerly depicted in other cell lines. This study aimed at inv…

Background: Endometriosis is a common chronic inflammatory, estrogen-dependent disease with characteristics similar to cancer. Epidemiological studies of the association between endometriosis and breast cancer have yielded inconsistent resu…

BACKGROUND: Establishment of a standardized animal endometriosis model is necessary for evaluation of new drug effects and for explaining different ethological aspects of this disease. For this purpose, we need a model which has more simila…

BACHGROUND: Endometriosis is a common gynaecological disease that affects quality of life for women. Several studies have revealed that both environmental and genetic factors contribute to the development of endometriosis. The aim of this s…

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the levels of two oxidative stress (OS) markers including lipid peroxide (LPO) and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) in both serum and follicular fluid (FF) of women with endometriosis after puncture. …
