This study analyzed the relative abundance of gastrointestinal microbial dynamics in patients with endometriosis compared to control subjects. The research included participants who were either not receiving hormonal therapy or were using oral contraceptive pills, collecting fecal samples at the time of surgery and following surgical intervention. Key findings highlighted the top thirty abundant bacterial genera within the gut microbiome for both groups across these different time points and treatment statuses. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically examining the association between urinary estrogens and gastrointestinal microbial composition in affected individuals.

Abstract

Subjects were either not receiving hormonal therapy (OCPs) (control = 4; P-EOSIS = 9) or receiving OCPs (control = 4; P-EOSIS = 10). A. Level 6 (genera) taxonomical summary plots for fecal samples. Samples were collected from subjects at the time of surgery (DOS) (left panel) and following surgical intervention (PSI) (right panel). B. The top 30 abundant bacterial genera in the GI tract of control and P-EOSIS.
