Background: Laparoscopic salpingectomy is strongly related to successful in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments.

Objectives: To compare the ovarian reserve, including anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) levels, in patients who underwent salpingectomy before IVF to IVF patients who had not been salpingectomized.

Methods: In this retrospective study, medical records of women who were treated by the IVF unit at our institute were reviewed. We retrieved demographic data, surgical details, and data regarding the ovarian reserve. Details of 35 patients who were treated by IVF after salpingectomy were compared to 70 IVF patients with no history of salpingectomy treatment. Nine women underwent IVF treatment before and after having salpingectomy, and their details were included in both groups.

Results: The levels of AMH, follicular stimulating hormone (FSH), estradiol, and progesterone were not significantly different in the groups. The antral follicular count (AFC), number of oocytes retrieved, amount of gonadotropin administered for ovarian stimulation, and number of embryos transferred (ET) were also not significantly different.

Conclusions: Salpingectomy does not seem to affect ovarian reserve in IVF patients.

Pentachlorophenol (PCP), a persistent organic pollutant, has endocrine disrupting properties and there may be a link between its exposure and reproductive outcomes. In this study, we assessed the relationship of PCP exposure levels with ovarian reserve markers and reproductive health outcomes in women (N = 656) undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF). PCP concentrations were determined in urine (n = 1,968; repeated measures) and follicular fluid samples (n = 603).

Background Endometriosis-related infertility and its treatment with assisted reproductive technologies (ART) have been broadly researched. Yet, underlying mechanisms of infertility, particularly in the absence of tubal dysfunction, remain unclear. While the impact of inflammatory milieu on the ovary and/or endometrium has been indicated as a contributing factor, recent evidence from euploid transfers and donor cycles questions the extent of these effects.

Background: The ovary is an important female organ not only for pregnancy but also for the regulation of life activities via hormone release. Ovarian function is measured by blood hormone levels, but the hormone level reflects only the ovarian reserve and no other essential ovarian functions, such as nurturing and expelling follicles. Ovarian fibrosis is related to essential ovarian function; however, the existing methods for evaluating fibrosis are invasive.

Oocyte aging is closely related to a decline in female fertility, accompanied by increased reactive oxygen species levels and changes in protein posttranslational modifications. However, the role of protein palmitoylation in oocyte aging has not been investigated. In the present study, a new association between redox and palmitoylation in aging oocytes was found.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have acquired an increased recognition to unravel the complex molecular mechanisms underlying Diminished Ovarian Reserve (DOR), one of the main responsible for infertility. To investigate the impact of miRNA profiles in granulosa cells and follicular fluid, crucial players in follicle development, this study employed a computational network theory approach to reconstruct potential pathways regulated by miRNAs in granulosa cells and follicular fluid of women suffering from DOR. Available data from published research were collected to create the FGC_MiRNome_MC, a representation of miRNA target genes and their interactions.
