GONE WITH THE WIND: The Transitory Effects of COVID-19 on the Gynecological System

Miriam Dellino et al.

Summary: The advent of coronavirus vaccines has alleviated the most serious symptoms of COVID-19, making it no longer an insurmountable global problem. However, there are still many extrapulmonary symptoms, including gynecological alterations, that raise questions about the causal link between COVID-19, vaccines, and gynecological health. The clinical impact of post-COVID-19 gynecological alterations on the female population is mainly determined by their duration, and the extent of these symptoms is still poorly understood.

The Contraindications to Combined Oral Contraceptives among Reproductive-Aged Women in an Obstetrics and Gynaecology Clinic: A Single-Centre Cross-Sectional Study

Ghadah A. Assiri et al.

Summary: This study aimed to determine the proportion of contraindications among women taking combined oral contraceptives (COCs) and identify associated risk factors. The study found that approximately 31.3% of women had at least one contraindication, with controlled hypertension and major surgery with prolonged immobilization being the most common contraindications. Married women, aged 35 or older, and those with one or more live births were more likely to have contraindications.

Miriam Dellino et al.

Summary: Strengthening the immune system is crucial in protecting vulnerable individuals from COVID-19 infection. Nutrition plays a significant role in the effectiveness of the immune system, and malnutrition can impair immune response and increase inflammation. A specific diet can modify the cytokine storm during the infection phase, which is vital for high-risk individuals.

Association between Cervical Microbiota and HPV: Could This Be the Key to Complete Cervical Cancer Eradication?

Eliano Cascardi et al.

Summary: This article focuses on the composition of the cervical microbiota and its interaction with human papillomavirus (HPV), aiming to identify the risk factors for developing Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia and discover new therapeutic strategies. The heterogeneity of the cervico-vaginal microbiota and its role in immunity, inflammation, and precancerous lesions of the cervical epithelium are discussed. Further research is needed to fully understand the relationship between microbiota, immunity, and HPV-related cervical tumors.

SARS-CoV-2 Vaccines and Adverse Effects in Gynecology and Obstetrics: The First Italian Retrospective Study

Miriam Dellino et al.

Summary: The Italian Medicine Agency reported common side effects of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine including myalgia, arm soreness, fever, and asthenia. While there are no official reports of alterations of the menstrual cycle or female reproductive system following the vaccine, clinical experience suggests the occurrence of temporary adverse reactions to the menstrual cycle after administration of all COVID-19 vaccine types. A retrospective study in Italy found that symptoms such as delayed menstruation and abnormal uterine bleeding were generally reported within the first three weeks of vaccination, particularly after the second dose.

Lactobacillus crispatus M247 oral administration: Is it really an effective strategy in the management of papillomavirus-infected women?

Miriam Dellino et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate whether long term administration of oral Lactobacillus crispatus could restore eubiosis in women with HPV infections and achieve viral clearance. The results showed that patients receiving the long term oral probiotic had a higher likelihood of resolving HPV-related cytological anomalies compared to the control group. However, there was no significant difference in the percentage of HPV-negative patients between the two groups.

Adolescents' and Young Adults' Ability to Self-Screen for Contraindications to Hormonal Contraception and the Role of Chronic Illness

Tracey A. Wilkinson et al.

Summary: The study examined the concordance between adolescents and young adults (AYAs) and physicians in reporting contraindications to hormonal contraception and found that age was not a factor affecting self-reporting. The results suggest that pharmacy access can be expanded to adolescents, and pediatric subspecialists should proactively address the hormonal contraceptive needs and safety.
