The purpose of this guideline is to review the literature regarding septate uterus and determine optimal indications andmethods of treatment for it. Septate uterus has been associated with an increase in the risk of miscarriage, premature delivery, and malpresentation; however, there is insufficient evidence that a uterine septum is associated with infertility. Several studies indicate that tre...

objective: : polycystic ovary syndrome (pcos) is one of the most common hormonal disorders that can lead to irregular menstrual cycles and hyperandrogenism. reduced levels of progesterone and increased estrogen in these women can perpetually stimulate the endometrial tissue of the uterus. in this study, the effect of pcos induction was studied using estradiol valerate. materials and methods: ad...

The uterus is formed during embryogenesis by the fusion of the two paramesonephric ducts (also called mullerian ducts). This process usually fuses the two mullerian ducts into a single uterine body. Incomplete fusion of the mullerian ducts results in uterine malformation like uterus didelphus, uterus bicornis bicollis, uterus bicornis unicollis, uterus subseptate, uterus arcuate, and uterus uni...

Evidence for extra-hypothalamic expression of kisspeptinergic system is emerging. The present study documents the imuunolocalization kisspeptin and its receptor in placentome buffalo. Gravid uterus was collected from abattoir gestational age estimated by crown-rump length fetus. A section containing caruncle cotyledon used immunohistochemistry. Kp evident feto-maternal junctions with prominent ...

INTRODUCTION Brucellosis is endemic in Nigeria and risk factors enhancing its transmission are prevalent. METHODS Following serological evidence of brucellosis and isolation of B. abortus from slaughtered cattle in Ibadan, Nigeria, we administered a semi-structured questionnaire to determine the prevalence and predictors of eating and selling bovine gravid uterus among 350 meat handlers from ...

Mammalian embryonic diapause is a phenomenon defined by the temporary arrest in blastocyst growth and metabolic activity within the uterus which synchronously becomes quiescent to blastocyst activation and implantation. This reproductive strategy temporally uncouples conception from parturition until environmental or maternal conditions are favourable for the survival of the mother and newborn....

S uccessful pregnancy requires a series of coordinated interactions between the developing placenta, the uterus, and the maternal immune system (1). At the maternal/fetal interface, where the placenta contacts the uterus, a specialized type of lymphocyte known as a uterine natural killer (uNK) cell is thought to play a critical role in mediating the uterine vascular adaptations to pregnancy. Ep...

Future fertility is of paramount importance to younger cancer survivors. Advances in assisted reproductive technology mean that young women treated with radiation involving the uterus may require clinical guidance regarding whether to attempt a pregnancy themselves. We performed a review of the literature regarding radiation involving uterus (total body irradiation (TBI) and pelvic radiation), ...

      The effects of hydroalcoholic extract of Peganum harmala seeds (EPS) on spontaneous rhythmic contractions of isolated rat uterine was investigated in this study. EPS was tested on the isolated uterus and endometrium free (i.e. stripped myometrium) preparations. EPS was found to exhibit significant spontaneous contractions of the uterus and stripped myometrium relative to the solv...
