Senescent Endometrial Cells in Patients with Thin Endometrial Lining

NCT06450301 · Status: RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 100

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal of this observational study is to determine if thin endometrial lining that is unresponsive to estrogen might be associated with the presence of senescent cells in patients following long-term use of oral contraceptives. The main question it aims to answer is:

Are there any senescent cells present in thin endometrial lining?

During the luteal phase of the cycle, participants will will undergo:

* Gynecologic US to measure the endometrial lining thickness and pattern.
* Endometrial biopsy with Pipelle catheter

Conditions

  • Asherman's Syndrome
  • Thin Endometrial Lining
  • Cell Senescence

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Endometrial Biopsy

An endometrial biopsy is the removal of a small piece of tissue from the endometrium, which is the lining of the uterus. Endometrial biopsies are commonly done to check for the window of implantation, to determine ovulation or for enhancing implantation (procedure called endometrial scratching). For this purpose, we will use a "Pipelle" catheter. This procedure is very common in gynecologic practice and generally considered safe. In most of the cases this procedure is indicated for evaluation of irregular vaginal bleeding, vaginal bleeding in post-menopausal women and for infertility related problems (recurrent implantation failures for example).
