This editorial outlines the significant opportunities and challenges inherent in conducting human preconception research, emphasizing the need for robust methodological frameworks to address complex biological and environmental factors before conception occurs. The authors highlight the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration and longitudinal study designs to better understand how maternal health status prior to pregnancy influences offspring outcomes. They note that ethical considerations and data privacy remain substantial hurdles that must be navigated carefully to advance the field effectively. The paper does not explicitly discuss endometriosis or adenomyosis; it was included in the corpus via a keyword match in the upstream search index.
