dysmenorrhea/necrosis

Primary dysmenorrhea affects the quality of life in young women, particularly school and work performance. This study investigated the mechanisms of penehyclidine hydrochloride (PHC) efficacy on a rat model of primary dysmenorrhea. The model was induced by injecting both estradiol benzoate and

To investigate the effects and the underlying mechanisms of ginsenoside Rf in a surgically induced rat endometriosis model, endometriosis was constructed through homologous transplantation and the Wistar rats were further randomly classified into the sham group, the estradiol valerate (E2V) control

The case is reported of a 32-year-old morbidly obese white woman who used adalimumab 40 mg every other week for 4 months for psoriatic arthritis, psoriasis vulgaris and inverse psoriasis with total clearance of her psoriasis who developed menorrhagia (at least twice the number of pads used daily for

OBJECTIVE To investigate the action of nuclear factor (NF)-κB in adenomyosis and evaluate the potential therapeutic effect of andrographolide on tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α-induced expression of NF-κB-mediated genes cyclooxygease-2 (COX-2), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and tissue

The popular accepted explanation for the pathogenesis of primary dysmenorrhea is elevated levels of uterine prostaglandins. Aetiological studies report that production of prostaglandins is controlled by the sex hormone progesterone, with prostaglandins and progesterone displaying an inverse

Background: Adnexal torsion is a well-recognized cause of acute pelvic pain. Isolated tubal torsion with ovarian sparing has certainly been documented, but is uncommon. Although risk factors for the latter include a menstrual period, menarche in particular is not known to predispose a patient to

BACKGROUND Artemisia princeps Pampanini (Asteraceae) is used as a traditional medicine to immune function-related diseases, such as dysmenorrhea, inflammation, cancer, and ulcers. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunostimulatory effects of the hot water extract from the

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of uterine artery embolization (UAE) for treating symptomatic fibroids with high signal intensity (SI) on magnetic resonance (MR) T2-weighted imaging (T2WI). METHODS A total of 537 cases, consisting of 14 patients with high SI fibroids on T2WI (T2 high group),

OBJECTIVE To evaluate long term effect and related factors in patients with menorrhagia treated by microwave endometrial ablation (MEA). METHODS Total of 334 women with menorrhagia were treated by MEA, the range of age was from 29 to 59 years old. Among them, 59 cases were complicated by

Adenomyosis is a common benign gynecological disorder presenting with dysmenorrhea, menorrhagia, and pressure symptoms. Magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasound surgery (MRgFUS) utilizes precisely focused USG waves to generate and maintain high temperatures within the targeted tissue to

Endometriosis is a common gynecologic disorder characterized by chronic pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, and infertility. Although this condition places significant financial burden on the healthcare system and negatively affects patient's quality of life, the pathophysiology of the disease remains

BACKGROUND Lamiophlomis rotata (Benth.) Kudo (L. rotata) is a medical plant that has been traditionally used for centuries for the treatment of pain, such as bone and muscle pain, joint pain and dysmenorrhea. Although iridoid glycosides of L. rotata (IGLR) are the major active components of it

Sobokchukeo-Tang (ST) is a well-known formula that is used for treating primary dysmenorrhea caused by blood stasis syndrome (BSS) in Korea and China. The current study investigated the anti‑inflammatory and anti‑adipogenesis effects of ST on adipocytes and macrophages. The anti‑inflammatory

OBJECTIVE We aimed to identify predisposing factors that could help predict the therapeutic response of adenomyosis after uterine artery embolization (UAE). METHODS This was a retrospective, single-center study of patients admitted to the hospital for adenomyosis between 2013 and 2015. Sixty-eight
