cytoreductive resection of adenomyosis, myomectomy, resection of endometriosis
All women chosen for the study will be divided into the groups (AD, UF, DE, ETRS, CTRL) based on the inclusion/exclusion criteria (Table 2).A meticulous concern will be dedicated to patients´ education on advantages and disadvantages (including the eventual risks) of surgical and conservative management of AD and UF. These patients will be allocated into surgical or conservative arm of the study based on their inclinations: either to fertility saving surgical procedure (FSS) with subsequent IVF, or directly to IVF. This phenomenon of the importance of patients´ preferences in controversial clinical situations is the usual part of the management of infertile patients with AD or UF.
hysteroscopy
Sampling of endometrium (Hysteroscopy) The samples will be collected using hysteroscopy, scheduled into the secretory phase of endometrial cycle. During hysteroscopy, the uterine cavity will be observed and described in the surgical protocol (capacity, symmetry, presence of intrauterine pathologies, internal ostia of the tubes). The 3.2 mm wide hysteroscope will be used. Its usage usually does not require any anaesthesia. The endometrium will be taken using biopsy forceps (7 French / 2.3 mm) and immediately frozen on dry ice and stored at -80 °C until processing. Two pieces of endometrium per patient will be collected - one for isolation of RNA and bulk RNA-Seq and/or RT-qPCR and the second one for isolation of nuclei and snRNA-Seq or validation using snRT-qPCR. If some unexpected findings would be observed during hysteroscopy (especially some interfering with fertility), they would be hysteroscopically removed and endometrial sampling postponed.
