The study focuses on spontaneous conception after menopause in a woman with primary ovarian insufficiency (POI), with an emphasis on the role of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) in fertility management. This case involves a 33-year-old woman with POI who has experienced both aided and spontaneous pregnancies. She had low AMH and high follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels, which typically indicate a limited ovarian reserve.

Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) is a life-threatening condition characterized by abnormal placental invasion of the myometrium and is often associated with uterine surgery. However, it can also occur in unscarred uteri, particularly during pregnancies using assisted reproductive technology (ART). Following a successful pregnancy via vitrified-warmed embryo transfer, a 33-year-old nulliparous woman with systemic lupus erythematosus and long-term steroid use presented with intra-abdominal hemorrhage due to placenta percreta and spontaneous uterine perforation at week 10 of gestation.

Background: Chronic endometritis (CE), frequently asymptomatic, is associated with female infertility. Fallopian tube obstruction (FTO) is also one of the factors contributing to female infertility. More than 90% of cases of proximal FTO can be successfully treated after fallopian tubal recanalization (FTR) and the spontaneous pregnancy rate of treated women after FTR is only about 30%.

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) play an important role in the development of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), including metastasis, invasion, tumorigenicity, and drug resistance. Moreover, non-CSCs can spontaneously transform into CSCs in special tumor microenvironments, thereby leading to poor prognosis or even failed treatments. Therefore, reversing tumor stem cells into normal tumor cells in a sustained-acting manner is a promising strategy.
