The Endometrial Factor ─ A Reproductive Precision Medicine Approach

At the dawn of precision medicine, there is a new opportunity for novel approaches to understand, diagnose and treat endometrial disorders that affect fertility, reproductive outcomes, and women’s health more broadly. Herein, the editors have assembled critically evaluated state-of-the-art chapters presenting basic and clinical knowledge about the human endometrium that impacts or will impact clinical practice, including diagnosis of endometrial disorders, effects of major reproductive pathologies, such as PCOS, fibroids, infection, recurrent pregnancy loss, adenomyosis, effects of steroids, hormones, and uterine anomalies, and therapeutic options. We hope that all clinicians and researchers in Reproductive Medicine will find this book useful as a reference and a valuable tool for continued advancement in the understanding and management of the "endometrial factor".
