Mast Cell Activation Syndrome in COVID-19 and Female Reproductive Function: Theoretical Background vs. Accumulating Clinical Evidence
Dariusz Szukiewicz, Piotr Wojdasiewicz, Mateusz Watroba, Grzegorz Szewczyk (2022). This article discusses the importance of mast cells in the female reproductive system and discusses the mechanism of potential disorders related to MCAS. While it suggests that COVID-19 hyperinflammation may involve MCAS, it finds that current evidence does not indicate a significant impact on female reproductive function
