Unfavorable lipid profile in women with endometriosis

Similar to dyslipidemia, the oxidative stress and intrinsic inflammatory status may be associated with the development of endometriosis. Thus, we performed a cross-sectional study and found that women with endometriosis had an increased low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and non-high-density lipoprotein...

Thus, we performed a cross-sectional study and found that women with endometriosis had an increased low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and non-high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels compared with controls presumably without endometriosis.
