Recent technical and technologic innovations have allowed overcoming even severe stenosis of the cervix with the use of office hysteroscopy, thus significantly reducing the rate of failed procedures requiring a further inpatient hysteroscopy.

Protected manual in-bag morcellation may be considered efficient and feasible in that it does not interfere with surgical outcomes in women undergoing laparoscopic myomectomy.

The early development of human haploid parthenotes and androgenotes in comparison with correctly fertilized eggs (biparentals) showed more kinetic differences according to parental composition than haploidy.

Higher Cited2 level in human cumulus cells is associated with decreasing embryo quality and pregnancy outcome in IVF patients, which may be attributed to apoptosis and abnormal gluconeogenesis in cumulus cells.

Measuring the plasma concentrations of kisspeptin, this study reveals groundbreaking evidence suggesting that kisspeptin and luteinizing hormone are cosecreted and temporally coupled in healthy women.

Increased risk of cardiovascular disease in parents of polycystic ovary syndrome as evidenced by increased carotid intima media thickness and low brachial artery flow-mediated dilatation as compared with matched controls.

In polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), higher PDCD4 expression promotes obesity, insulin resistance, lipid metabolism disorders, and induced granulosa cell apoptosis, which is an independent risk factor for PCOS.

We discuss how total testosterone levels were predicted by sonographic markers of ovarian morphology, not hirsutism scores; and how the predictive value of ovarian morphology for total testosterone differed by menstrual cycle status.

Antiandrogenic treatment appears to have a beneficial effect on working memory in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

For 37,711 embryos analyzed with 24-chromosome single-nucleotide polymorphism–based preimplantation genetic screening, the number, proportion, and probability of embryos testing as euploid per IVF cycle were stratified by maternal age.

Recommended reporting items, such as confidence intervals and absolute differences, are underused in top infertility journals, which could lead to misleading interpretations.

An episode of intermenstrual bleeding statistically significantly decreases the odds of conception in the current cycle but does not appear to negatively impact a woman’s future reproductive potential.

This study shows an association between lipoprotein(a) concentrations and history of stillbirth and preeclampsia. This well known atherothrombotic marker might represent one of the mechanisms shared by obstetrical and cardiovascular disease.

Members of the Society of Reproductive Endocrinologists and Infertility have a focused practice, sense a change in scope of practice, envision minimal growth, and have very high professional satisfaction.

In addition to financial access influencing who receives a medical evaluation for infertility, demographic and healthy lifestyle characteristics are associated with a medical evaluation for infertility among infertile women.

Estrogen receptor (ER) b is aberrantly overexpressed in ectopic endometriotic tissues. This study demonstrates that ERb regulates the transcription of SGK1, a kinase that promotes apoptotic resistance in endometriosis via FOXO3 inactivation.

A forecasting method was developed to predict first trimester pregnancy outcomes through ultrasound scan on days 27–29 after ET and the follow-up can be planned accordingly.

Small fibroids seem to grow rapidly in the first weeks of pregnancy, with a nonlinear trend, in relation to the similar growth of human chorionic gonadotropin in the same period.

Four circulating miRNAs (miR-320b, miR-146b-5p, miR-221-3p, miR-559) were up-regulated and one miRNA (miR-101-3p) was down-regulaed in unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion (URSA). These circulating microRNAs may be involved in URSA pathogenesis and provide a promising new diagnostic biomarker for URSA.

Our prospective, cohort study demonstrates that the use of aspirin may be associated with an increased risk of developing subchorionic hematomas in early pregnancies.
