Treating Endometriosis Pain: A Multidisciplinary Approach
Seminars in reproductive endocrinology ·doi:10.1055/s-2008-1068754

Endometriosis is a painful recurring disease for which there are several treatments but little or no clinical guides for optimal application. In order to more appropriately treat these patients, we need to take a more holistic long-term app…

A randomized and longitudinal study of human menopausal gonadotropin with intrauterine insemination in the treatment of infertility.
Obstetrics and gynecology

OBJECTIVE: To study in a randomized and longitudinal manner the efficacy of human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) superovulation combined with intrauterine insemination (IUI) versus IUI alone in the treatment of various causes of infertility …

Histologic features associated with hormonal responsiveness of ectopic endometrium
Fertility and Sterility ·doi:10.1016/0020-7292(93)90245-r

OBJECTIVE: To correlate histologic parameters of endometriosis with hormonal responsiveness. DESIGN: Seven hundred sixty-eight unselected endometriotic implants and the corresponding intrauterine endometrium from 196 patients were classifie…

Clinical and histologic classification of endometriomas. Implications for a mechanism of pathogenesis
The Journal of reproductive medicine

One hundred eighty-seven consecutive patients with persistent ovarian cysts and endometriosis underwent laparoscopic evaluation and ovarian cystectomy. All patients had been followed for a minimum of 6 weeks prior to surgery. The cysts were…

A comparative analysis of the cycle fecundity rates associated with combined human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) and intrauterine insemination (IUI) versus either hMG or IUI alone
Fertility and Sterility ·doi:10.1016/s0015-0282(16)54111-9

Human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) superovulation combined with washed intrauterine insemination (IUI) has been advocated for the treatment of various forms of infertility when more traditional therapy has failed. To assess the relative ef…

article 1991
Endometriosis--what can medical therapy offer?
British journal of clinical practice. Supplement

Endometriosis is often debilitating and can adversely affect fertility. Medical management has largely consisted of hormonal therapy, employing the entire spectrum of sex steroids, singly or in combination, and has primarily aimed to reliev…

article 1991
Hormone-resistant endometriosis following total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy: correlation with histology and steroid receptor content.
Obstetrics and gynecology

Endometriosis is rare after hysterectomy and oophorectomy for conditions unrelated to endometriosis. We present a case of delayed development of aggressive, hormone-resistant endometriosis temporally remote from hysterectomy and oophorectom…

Adhesion reformation after reproductive surgery by videolaseroscopy
Fertility and Sterility ·doi:10.1016/s0015-0282(16)53576-6

After initial videolaseroscopy for the treatment of endometriosis-associated infertility, 157 patients underwent a second-look laparoscopy to evaluate and treat recurrence of disease and/or adhesions. The patients were divided into two grou…

Effect of age on response to human menopausal gonadotropin stimulation
The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism ·doi:10.1210/jcem-71-6-1525

Conception rates decline in the latter part of the reproductive years. To examine which ovarian parameters are altered with aging, 486 cycles from 225 ovulatory infertile women undergoing human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) superovulation a…

Endometriosis: Etiology and Pathophysiology of Infertility
Clinical obstetrics and gynecology ·doi:10.1097/00003081-198812000-00006

The risk for developing endometriosis begins at puberty and extends to menopause in women of all races. The major pathway in the pathogenesis of this disease is the transplantation of endometrial cells to the pelvis and other abdominal orga…

Limited hormonal responsiveness of ectopic endometrium: histologic correlation with intrauterine endometrium
Human pathology ·doi:10.1016/s0046-8177(88)80234-x

In order to assess the hormonal responsiveness of ectopic endometrium, 438 unselected endometrial implants and corresponding intrauterine endometrium from 196 patients were evaluated and classified by standard endometrial dating criteria. O…
