Objective Combined oral contraceptives (COC) and progestogens are widely used for the treatment of endometriosis. The objective of the study is to compare the efficacy of dienogest 2 mg vs continuous oral levonorgestrel/EE (levonorgestrel 0…
Endometriosis is a chronic disease frequently associated with female infertility. The choice of treatment in case of endometriosis is one of the most discussed topics in Reproductive Medicine. The approach to the patient with endometriosis …
Endometriosis may compromise the physiological course of pregnancy. The aim of this prospective observational study was to evaluate whether endometriosis causes a higher prevalence of obstetric and neonatal complications as well as a higher…
Objective Infertility is an increasingly frequent health condition, which may depend on female or male factors. Oxidative stress (OS), resulting from a disrupted balance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) and protective antioxidants, aff…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a widespread multifactorial disease in which environmental, genetic, and epigenetic factors contribute to the phenotype. Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes implicated in pivotal molecular mechanisms…
Endometriosis, in spite of decades of research on the topic, remains a mysterious and elusive disease. Both in the fields of diagnosis and treatment, many issues remain unresolved, and the scientific community strives in trying to find univ…
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of medical treatment of ovarian endometriomas on cyst diameter, associated pain, and ovarian reserve as measured with antral follicle count (AFC) and anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH). In t…
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of laparoscopic cystectomy on ovarian reserve by means of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) serial measurements and to compare AMH values with the number of inadvertently removed follicles …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent, inflammatory disease that mainly affects women of reproductive age and is defined by the presence of endometrial glands and stroma at ectopic sites. Spontaneous hemoperitoneum due to bleeding …
The protective effect of pregnancy on endometriosis is well known, but complications related to the pregnant state, such as hemoperitoneum, uroperitoneum and bowel perforation may occur.
Alpha-Lipoic acid (ALA) is a natural antioxidant synthetized by plants and animals, identified as a catalytic agent for oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate and α-ketoglutarate. In this review, we analyzed the action of ALA in gynecology a…
The choice of treatment in case of ovarian endometriomas is one of the most discussed topics in Reproductive Medicine. Management options include expectancy, medical treatment, surgery, in vitro fertilization (IVF), or a combination of the …
Ovarian endometriomas are frequently associated with female infertility. The choice of treatment in these cases is one of the most discussed topics in Reproductive Medicine, and the approach to the patient should be tailored based on differ…
Glanzmanns thrombasthenia (GT) is a rare bleeding syndrome characterized by deficiency or defect of platelet aggregation complex. The pathogenesis of endometriosis is controversial but the strongest evidence leans towards retrograde menstr…
It has been brought to our attention that the names ChiaraDi Tucci andMara Di Feliciantonio were indexed incorrectly in the above article in Seminars in Reproductive Medicine, Volume 35, Number 1, 2017 (DOI 10.1055/s-0036-1597126). The auth…
Introduction: Endometriosis is a chronic disease often associated with pelvic pain and infertility. It has been shown that vitamin D plays an important role in the physiological functions of the reproductive system. Conflicting data have be…
Ovarian endometriomas are a common finding in both infertile and non-infertile women. For non-infertile women planning to seek pregnancy in the presence of an ovarian endometrioma, expectant management is a reasonable option, since reassuri…

(Abstracted from Am J Obstet Gynecol 2016;214:203–211) Up to 44% of patients with endometriosis have endometriomas that are usually associated with pelvic pain and infertility. The first-line option for endometriosis-associated pain symptom…
Ovarian endometriomas affect 17 to 44% of women with endometriosis, and are often associated with pelvic pain and infertility. Treatment options include expectant management, medical and/or surgical treatment, and in vitro fertilization and…
STUDY QUESTION: Is the combined excisional/ablative technique for the treatment of ovarian endometriomas better than the traditional stripping technique in terms of recurrence rate? SUMMARY ANSWER: There is no evidence that the combined exc…
