The paper reviews the current evidence on hormonal (endocrine) medical therapy for endometriosis, emphasizing its importance as a long-term option alongside precision surgery, and aims to summarize the main drug strategies with attention to targeting and side-effect profiles. It highlights that, for steroid hormone-dependent disease, hormone therapy is presented as the therapy of choice, focusing on oral contraceptives, progestins, and newer oral GnRH antagonists. The authors explicitly note that the discussion is based on the “current study situation,” but the contribution is a literature-based overview without new human or animal experiments, which limits direct quantification of comparative effectiveness in this article itself. This paper is centrally about endometriosis and adenomyosis endocrine therapy—specifically it surveys and explains current hormone-based treatment options (including GnRH antagonists) for these conditions.
