Impact of Endometrioma and Deep infiltrating endometriosis surgery on ovarian reserve: A Large Single-Center, Cross-Sectional Study
Hence, there is scarce and no reliable data or evidence-based protocol for the management of DIE (deep infiltrating endometriosis) lesions in reproductive age women, in this study we examined ovarian reserve in endometriosis surgeries to aid in decision-making for surgery and fertility preservation. Material and methods This single-center cross-sectional study included 508 women who underwent laparoscopic endometriosis surgery in three groups: endometrioma (OMA) (n=156), OMA+ DIE (n=235), and DIE (n=117)), from June 2018 to December 2022. Their AMH levels were compared to 50 healthy controls before surgery and at 4, 8 months post-surgery. Results The DIE group had lower baseline anti mullerian hormone (AMH) levels compared to other groups. (P < 0.0001 ) Following surgery, AMH levels decreased notably across all groups. (P < 0.001) Reductions in AMH levels after surgery

Effectiveness of mindful self-compassion therapy on psychopathology symptoms, psychological distress and life expectancy in infertile women treated with in vitro fertilization : a two-arm double-blind parallel randomized controlled trial
MSC can facilitate higher life satisfaction and mental well-being for IW undergoing IVF by reducing psychological distress, psychopathological symptoms, and hopelessness. These encouraging findings call for more research into the effectiveness of mindfulness-based therapies in addressing psychological problems among IW undergoing IVF.
