BACKGROUND: Endometriosis disease affects up to 10 % of menstruating people worldwide and can lead to infertility. Environmental pollutants are risk factors influencing the probability of developing endometriosis. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to ex…
Toxic metals found in the environment have been linked to female infertility and gynecological illnesses. Reliable analytical methods, such as inductively coupled plasma tandem mass spectrometry (ICP-MS/MS), are necessary to determine the e…
Potentially toxic elements (PTEs), found as environmental contaminants, have been related to endometriosis disease. In this context, the peritoneal fluid (PF) matrix has been poorly studied despite its importance. PF is the environment in w…
The combination of in vitro maturation (IVM) techniques and oocyte vitrification (OV) could increase the number of useful oocytes in different types of patients. IVM and subsequent OV is the most widely used clinical strategy. Would the res…
The success of mammalian fertilization depends largely on spermatozoa physiological events. However, the manner in which endometriosis influence morpho-functional spermatozoa biomarkers is poorly defined. Here, we studied in vitro the effec…
We performed a double-blind, randomised controlled trial to evaluate the results of ultrasound-guided aspiration of endometriomas under the effect of GnRH analogues and a possible additional beneficial effect by leaving 600000 IU of recombi…
BACKGROUND: The goals of the present work were to study the embryotoxic effects of peritoneal fluid (PF) in women with or without endometriosis, and to relate any embryotoxicity to the severity of endometriosis, infertility or achievement o…
ObjectiveTo evaluate the possible therapeutic effects of interferon alpha-2b left in the peritoneum after surgery, followed by or not followed by treatment with GnRH analogs.DesignA prospective, randomized clinical trial.SettingUniversity h…
La endometriiosis es una enfermedad de la mujer, definida por la presencia de tejido identico o semejante a la mucosa enmetrial, localizado en lugares distintos al fisiologico. Afecta al 8-0 % de las mujeres mestruantes y hasta en un 305 de…
