Long-term use of GnRH analogues for endometriosis and uterine fibroids is limited, with strong evidence supporting up to 6 months. Longer durations require careful management of side effects, notably bone health, potentially utilizing add-b…

The evidence suggests that endometriosis is associated with a modestly increased risk of some cancers, especially ovarian cancer, though the absolute risk remains low. This association does not currently necessitate changes in standard canc…

MRI serves as a valuable non-invasive tool for diagnosing endometriosis, especially for deep infiltrating and complex cases, while laparoscopy remains the definitive method for diagnosis.

Endometriosis diagnosis can be supported by non-invasive imaging (ultrasounds, MRI) and emerging biomarkers, with laparoscopy serving as a confirmatory tool when needed. Guidelines are evolving, highlighting the need for consensus on optima…

Physical exercise may improve symptoms in women with endometriosis by enhancing quality of life and reducing pain, although more high-quality studies are needed for definitive evidence.

The prevalence of endometriosis in Colombian women is not well documented, and while global estimates suggest a prevalence of about 10% among reproductive-aged women, localized studies are needed for an accurate assessment.

Currently, there is limited clinical evidence regarding the effectiveness of TNF-α inhibitors compared to standard hormonal therapy or placebo in reducing endometriotic lesions and symptoms. More research is needed to establish their role i…
