Investigation of ovarian aging markers and hormonal regulation in menopausal transition.

Menopause and ovarian dysfunction are consequences of ovarian aging, a continuous and natural process in women. Early symptoms of ovarian aging include inadequate response to ovarian stimulation, irregular menstruation, and loss of follicular function, which collectively contribute to a decline in fertility as women age. The effects of aging on the ovaries are more pronounced than on other organs, with deterioration in the follicular pool and oocyte quality influenced by endocrine, genetic, and metabolic factors. This study aimed to examine the correlation between menopausal symptoms and serum…

From First Breathless Episode to Final Diagnosis and Treatment: A Case Report on Thoracic Endometriosis Syndrome.

Background: Endometriosis is a chronic disease defined by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. While typically confined to the pelvis, extrapelvic manifestations-including thoracic endometriosis-can occur. Although rare, thoracic endometriosis is the most common extragenital form. In clinical practice, this presentation is often described as thoracic endometriosis syndrome (TES), a constellation of cyclic thoracic symptoms temporally associated with menstruation but not always histologically confirmed. Its atypical symptoms and limited clinical awareness frequent…
