This study investigated the association between genetic variants of sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and hormonal profiles in 103 women diagnosed with genital endometriosis. Researchers genotyped nine single-nucleotide polymorphisms previously linked to SHBG levels via genome-wide association studies and analyzed their correlation with serum concentrations of dehydroepiandrosterone, testosterone, estradiol, progesterone, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, and prolactin using linear regression. The results identified specific polymorphic loci significantly associated with varying levels of these reproductive hormones, suggesting that SHBG-related genetics influence the hormonal milieu in these patients. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically examining the genetic underpinnings of hormonal dysregulation in patients with genital endometriosis.
