Does hysterosalpingo-foam sonography have any therapeutic effect? A systematic review.
CONCLUSIONS: As described in the literature for other procedures, similarly with HyFoSy, the tubal flushing improves the chance of an embryo implanting and establishing a spontaneous pregnancy. More prospective studies should be taken to better analyze the singular maternal risk fators, hoping to offer more complete indications to recommend HyFoSy.

Prevention of vaginal dryness in perimenopausal women. Supplementation with Lady Prelox ®.
CONCLUSIONS: The effects of the supplementation with Lady Prelox® on vaginal dryness were significant. The supplement was well accepted and revealed no side effects or tolerability problems. Further studies are evaluating the effects of Lady Prelox® on other aspects of the menopausal transition that may alter the quality of life of most women in advanced age. A gentle approach with suitable dietary supplementation, represents a promising option for addressing common challenges that women experience in such conditions.

Uterus transplantation: transition from experimental to clinical procedure.
Authors: Brännström M
Abstract
Uterus transplantation is a novel treatment to treat uterine factor infertility. This type of infertility is due to absence of an anatomical or functional uterus. This review covers important research findings in the field, and this research formed the base for introduction of uterus transplantation as an experimental clinical procedure. The basic animal-research investigated central facets such as surgery, immunosuppression, ischemia-reperfusion injury, rejection, and fertility. The first clinical uterus transplantation trial was started in 2013 and this was a live donor t...

[HPV vaccination: not only female adolescents and not only prophylactic. Review and position paper of the Italian HPV Study Group (IHSG)].
Authors: Origoni M, Cristoforoni P, Mariani L, Costa S, Preti M, Sandri MT, Preti EP, Ghelardi A, Perino A
Abstract
HPV vaccination has been introduced in clinical practice in recent years and represents the most effective strategy of primary prevention of cervical carcinoma and of female genital preneoplastic conditions. One of the major issues of the subject is represented by vaccination coverage of the target population. Since its introduction, HPV vaccine efficacy has been progressively demonstrated also towards extragenital HPV-correlated conditions and in males too. Moreover, even subjects of older a...
