Summary

In our study, by evaluating the serum and vaginal-peritoneal fluid levels of Relaxin, Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 and Interleukin-6 in women over 35 years of age with chronic pelvic pain, the investigators aimed to reveal their potential to be an important marker in the diagnosis of Deep Infiltrative Endometriosis, thus enabling early diagnosis with lower cost and results that can be obtained in a short time.The investigators aim to reveal its relationship with follow-up.

In our study, the values of Relaxin, MMP-2 or IL-6 from vaginal fluids were found to be significantly higher than the control group in the prediction and follow-up of deep infiltrative endometriosis. This supports the role of Relaxin and MMP-2 as well as IL-6 in the pathophysiology of deep infiltrative endometriosis.

Histologically based and multicenter randomized controlled studies with more patients are needed to elucidate the etiology and pathophysiology of endometriosis.
