INTRODUCTION: The vaginal microbiome plays a central role in women's health by supporting immune function, maintaining mucosal homeostasis, and preventing infections. Spaceflight and its analogs can induce acute physiological stress, which …

INTRODUCTION: Prior studies have noted improved pregnancy rates (both spontaneous and resulting from assisted reproductive technologies (ART)) of up to 53–70% following conservative surgical excision of endometriosis in patients with deep e…

Endometriosis is one of the most common gynecologic conditions that women face throughout their lives. Despite advances in technology, diagnosis and treatment of this relapsing and remitting condition is still challenging for many women. Th…

OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of adenomyosis on the localized expression of the GATA binding proteins 2 and 6 (GATA2 and GATA6) zinc-finger transcription factors that are involved in proliferation of hematopoietic and endocrine cell lineag…

OBJECTIVE: To compare pregnancy outcomes after single blastocyst embryo transfer among patients whose first autologous embryo transfer was either a fresh embryo transfer or a frozen embryo transfer (FET) after a freeze-all, in the absence o…

PURPOSE: There is an unclear relationship between estradiol levels and fresh embryo transfer (ET) outcomes. We determined the relationship between estradiol on the day of trigger, in fresh ET cycles without premature progesterone elevation,…

The technique and platform used for preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) have undergone significant changes over time. The contemporary technique utilizes trophectoderm biopsy followed by next-generation sequencing (NGS). …

CONTEXT: Enhanced levels of catecholestradiols, 2-hydroxyestradiol (2-OHE2) or 4-hydroxyestradiol (4-OHE2), are reported in endometriosis. During gestation, catecholestradiol activation of adrenergic receptors (AR) elevates estrogen recepto…

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To compare the detection rate of adenomyosis when ultrasound is performed by a radiologist compared with a gynecologic expert sonologist. DESIGN: A retrospective, single-center study. SETTING: A university teaching hospit…

Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of Gynecological cancer related mortality in the USA. Due to the absence of an effective screening method, concomitant adnexal management during hysterectomy or other pelvic surgeries is a prime considera…

Comorbidities such as endometriosis can confound the picture in patients with adenomyosis, a condition that may lead to poor IVF outcomes.

To provide a comprehensive review of the published literature of patients with endo- metrial bone or osseous fragments with a view to critically examine the antecedent clinical presentation, investigations and prognosis after treatment. Thi…
