Introduction Endometriosis is a major cause of infertility, and Assisted Reproductive Techniques (ART) represent an effective approach for managing infertility associated with this condition. Because ART cycles allow direct evaluation of im…

INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis is a chronic and estrogen-dependent disorder that affects about 10% of women of reproductive age worldwide. Endometriosis has been associated with chronic inflammation and an atherogenic lipid profile, two condit…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis appears to have a multilayered etiology, with genetic and epigenetic factors each contributing half of the pathogenesis. The molecular processes that underlie the onset of endometriosis are yet unclear, but it is a…

Biomarker identification could help in deciphering endometriosis pathophysiology in addition to their use in the development of non invasive diagnostic and prognostic approaches, that are essential to greatly improve patient care. Despite e…

Endometriosis is a complex disease and still many areas of uncertainty exist on the clinical management, from the diagnosis to the treatment. The modern diagnostic workup should include the family history (including genetic and epigenetic f…
