Peculiarities of systemic violations in patients with genital endometriosis in combination with benign diseases of genitalia and syndrome of chronic pelvic pain.
This study found that increasing chronic pelvic pain in women with genital endometriosis correlated with decreased IL-10 and increased IL-6 and TNF-α, indicating a pro-inflammatory imbalance.

The study investigated how serum cytokine levels (IL-10, IL-6, TNF-α) relate to subjective pain intensity, nervous system maladaptation processes, and affective factors in 120 women with genital endometriosis combined with benign hormonal pathology of the genitalia and chronic pelvic pain, grouped by VAS pain scores and disease duration. With increasing CPP severity (VAS 7–10), IL-10 decreased and IL-6 and TNF-α increased compared with those with minimal pain (VAS 0–3), and these cytokine shifts correlated with higher pain intensity, longer pain history, and higher anxiety and depression levels. The main limitation stated by design is that the work is grouped by pain level rather than explicitly establishing causality. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it examines cytokine–pain and psychosocial associations in women with genital endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain.
