DOI: 10.37421/2476-1958.2023.8.175

Immune system dysfunction plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD), including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. This article explores the intricate mechanisms underlying the dysregulation of the immune system in IBD and its impact on gastrointestinal inflammation. The review delves into the immunological factors triggering chronic inflammation, genetic predispositions, and the interplay between the innate and adaptive immune responses. Furthermore, it examines the role of gut microbiota in influencing immune system dysfunction and its contribution to disease progression. Therapeutic strategies targeting immune dysregulation are also discussed, including immunomodulators, biologic therapies, and potential future prospects. By understanding the complexities of immune system dysfunction in IBD, new avenues for diagnosis and treatment may emerge, offering hope for improved patient outcomes.

Bowel endometriosis is a subtype of endometriosis characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue on or within the walls of the bowel. It is estimated that approximately 5-15% of women with endometriosis have bowel involvement. Bowel endometriosis can significantly impact fertility and reproductive health. This article aims to provide an overview of the relationship between bowel endometriosis and fertility, including the mechanisms by which it affects fertility, diagnostic approaches, and treatment options. Understanding this complex relationship is crucial for healthcare professionals involved in the care of women with endometriosis, as it can help optimize reproductive outcomes and guide treatment decisions.

DOI: 10.37421/2476-1958.2023.08.176

Endometriosis is a chronic condition in which the tissue similar to the lining of the uterus, known as endometrial tissue, grows outside the uterus. While endometriosis commonly affects the reproductive organs, it can also involve other areas, including the bowel. Bowel endometriosis can cause a range of symptoms that significantly impact a person's quality of life. This article explores the various bowel symptoms associated with endometriosis and their underlying mechanisms. It also discusses the diagnostic methods, treatment options, and management strategies for bowel symptoms in endometriosis.
