AB  - AIM: To explore the associations between endometriosis and different kinds of 
      allergy-related diseases as well as different specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) 
      allergy. METHODS: This cross-sectional study included 1332 female participants 
      >/=20 years and divided them into the endometriosis group (n = 97) and the 
      nonendometriosis group (n = 1235). The confounders were obtained by comparing the 
      differences of variables in groups. Univariate and multivariate logistic 
      regression analyses were performed to analyze the associations between 
      endometriosis and allergy-related diseases as well as different specific IgE 
      allergy. Subgroup analysis were performed in age, body mass index (BMI), and 
      pregnancy history. RESULTS: After adjusting for confounders, increased risk of 
      allergy (odd ratios [OR] = 2.13, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.31-3.47), hay 
      fever (OR = 2.31, 95%CI: 1.32-4.06), and dog-specific IgE (OR = 2.13, 95%CI: 
      1.03-4.41) were observed in females with endometriosis. Among females aged 
      between 30 and 39 years, the risk of allergy (OR = 3.51, 95%CI: 1.07-11.56), hay 
      fever (OR = 3.26, 95%CI: 1.08-9.83), and dog-specific IgE (OR = 4.39, 95%CI: 
      1.02-18.88) was increased in patients with endometriosis compared with those 
      without. In terms of females aged 40 to 49 years, the risk of hay fever was 
      increased in patients with endometriosis. For females with BMI of 25-30 kg/m(2) , 
      the risk of allergy was increased in patients with endometriosis. Increased risk 
      of allergy, hay fever, and dog-specific IgE was observed in females with a 
      history of pregnancy. CONCLUSION: Endometriosis was associated with higher risk 
      of allergy, hay fever, and dog dander. Special care should be provided for 
      patients with endometriosis for the potential risk of allergy.
