BACKGROUND Metformin has been shown to improve fertility in anovulatory patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), inducing not only a high ovulation and pregnancy rate but also reducing the incidence of miscarriages. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the uterine effects of metformin in patients with PCOS who ovulated under metformin. METHODS Thirty-seven non-obese primary inf...

background: despite major advances in assisted reproductive techniques, the implantation rates remain relatively low. some studies have demonstrated that intrauterine infusion of granulocyte colony stimulating factor (g-csf) improves implantation in infertile women. objective: to assess the g-csf effects on ivf outcomes in women with normal endometrial thickness. materials and methods : in this...

BACKGROUND Angiogenesis has been found to be among the most important factors in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. The formation of new blood vessels is critical for the survival of newly implanted endometriotic foci. The use of 3-D power Doppler allows for the demonstration of the dynamic vascular changes that occur during the process of in vitro fertilization (IVF). We aimed to evaluate the ...

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the relationship between indications and histopathological results in patients undergoing endometrial sampling. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data of 4,247 patients undergoing endometrial sampling due to non-obstetric gynecological causes between January 2010 and October 2016 were retrospectively evaluated using the archives of the Gynecology and Obstetrics C...

The recent years have seen medical science and technology expand by leaps and bounds. We have shifted focus from correction of the problem to prevention of the problem. Abnormal uterine bleeding is an important cause of ill health in perimenopausal women.In the perimenopausal years, there is an increase in the incidence of bleeding irregularities. This is because of an increase in the prevalenc...

BACKGROUND To investigate the effect of fertility stress on endometrial and subendometrial blood flow among infertile women. METHODS This case-control study was conducted in The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. The fertility problem inventory (FPI) was adopted to evaluate fertility stress. Three-dimensional power Doppler ultrasonography (3D PD-US) was performed during the pr...

Breast cancer patients have an increased risk of endometrial pathology. To investigate whether the incidence of endometrial abnormalities and their clinicopathological features were affected by receiving tamoxifen (TAM), non-steroidal aromatase inhibitors (AIs) or no treatment (NT), 333 peri/postmenopausal breast cancer patients, who were referred to the Department of Gynecological, Obstetrical...

In a 3-year prospective study, 30 postmenopausal women received transdermal E2 gel and every-other-day vaginal P in capsules. At study completion, endometrial thickness was significantly reduced as compared with baseline (2.7 0.5 vs. 3.4 0.9 mm), endometrial biopsy showed endometrial atrophy in all cases, and amenorrhea was achieved in 92.6% of cycles, while excellent patient satisfaction was a...
