The Reproductive Endocrine Unit of the Department of Medicine was established in 1983 to provide a venue for the investigational, teaching and clinical activities of this rapidly expanding section of the Endocrinology Division at the Massachusetts General Hospital, building on Mass General’s longstanding record of outstanding reproductive research.
The Reproductive Endocrine Unit at Massachusetts General Hospital leads broad-based clinical and basic research programs into the scientific basis of reproductive disorders.
In addition to leading broad-based clinical and basic research programs and educating the next generation of reproductive endocrinologists through our training and education programs, the Reproductive Endocrine Unit at Massachusetts General Hospital seeks to translate our clinical findings into top-quality, state-of-the-art care for patients with reproductive disorders. We offer our patients a diverse variety of treatments and clinical services.
Our faculty conduct a wide array of basic and clinical research activities in a variety of areas of reproductive biology, enhanced by our affiliations with Harvard Medical School and the Broad Institute.

In this study, investigators created a very large dataset of rare genetic variants and their association with diabetes, which can help us distinguish those variants more likely to cause monogenic diabetes vs those that are benign.
Mass General Brigham researchers found that getting vaccinated on the early side of the recommended window was best for transferring maternal antibodies to the fetus.
Data from the REPRIEVE trial suggest there is only a minimal increased risk of diabetes with statins among people with HIV, and in specific, limited groups
