Thank you for your kind comments. Our research started with an interest in how vitamin D, which is involved in the immune response, affects the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Numerous research reports indicate that endometriosis can occur due to abnormal immune response activity, involving various pathological mechanisms [1,2]. In accordance with your comments, the authors sought to clarify the role of vitamin D as a biomarker for the diagnosis of endometriosis through this study. We also wanted to find evidence regarding whether vitamin D could be used as a treatment for endometriosis.
