Diversity of clinical signs and topography of the disease led to emergence of a wide range of treatment algorithms and necessitated the need for individual therapeutic approach [14, 22]. The majority of experts, while considering endometriosis to be a proliferative disease requiring surgical intervention to remove the spot, recognize combination treatment to be the method of choice. The method ideally provides for surgery (radical or organ-preserving) and long-term follow-up medication therapy taking into account the age and reproductive future of the patient [34, 42].\nKeywords","source_license":"CC0","license_restricted":false}
