Article Abstract
The study aimed to assess the effect of high estrogen exposure and coasting on cycle outcome in women at risk for developing ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). Retrospective case-control study was conducted to figure out the outcomes of GnRH antagonist cycles in which women were at risk to develop OHSS. Women who underwent coasting (n = 100) were compared with a control group of women who did not undergo coasting (n = 287). Effect of endometrial estrogen exposure was determined by calculating area under curve of temporal estrogen measurements (AUCEM) through the cycle. Among 387 women with PCOS, 100 cases were required to undergo coasting to avoid OHSS. All participants reached to embryo transfer stage and clinical pregnancy rate was 44% in group with coasting whereas 39% in group without coasting (p > .05). AUCEM was a significant predictor for the cases who required coasting to avoid OHSS (AUC = 0.754, p < .001). Optimal cut off value was calculated to be 6762 with 71% sensitivity and 67% specificity. ROC analysis showed no predictive value of AUCEM for clinical pregnancy in subgroup of women with coasting (AUC = 0.496, p > .05). Consistently, ROC analysis showed no predictive value of AUCEM for clinical pregnancy in subgroup of women without coasting (AUC = 0.494, p > .05). In conclusion, neither coasting nor the high endometrial estrogen exposure was found to have detrimental effect on endometrial receptivity and cycle outcome in PCOS.

Genistein (GEN) is a phytoestrogen with oestrogen-like activity found in many plants. Classified as an endocrine disruptor, GEN is potentially hazardous, particularly during developmental stages. It induces alterations in anxious behaviour, fertility, and energy metabolism, alongside modifications in specific brain circuits.

Perfluorobutanoic acid (PFBA) is an emerging contaminant that was demonstrated to exhibit estrogen effects via action on classic estrogen receptors (ERs) in a low-activity manner. The purpose of the present study is to reveal the estrogen disruption effect and mechanism of PFBA via estrogen-related receptor γ (ERRγ) pathways. In vivo experiment indicated that PFBA accumulated in zebrafish ovary and caused ovarian injury, with disturbing sex hormone levels and interfering gene expression related to estrogen synthesis and follicle regulation.

In Western countries, the increase in the consumption of soy-derived products raises the population's exposure to isoflavones. These molecules, present in many foods, have numerous effects on the body's cells, including regulation of the transcription and epigenetics, cell signaling, cell cycle, cell growth, apoptosis, and oxidative stress. However, despite the multitude of studies conducted, on these compounds, it remains difficult to draw definitive conclusions regarding their safety or dangerousness in the diet.
