Medikamentöse Therapie der Endometriose
This review discusses the medication-based treatment of endometriosis, a condition characterized by endometrial tissue outside the uterus, often focusing on symptom management due to its unclear pathophysiology.

This paper describes endometriosis as ectopic, proliferating endometrium-like tissue outside the uterine cavity and highlights it as a common cause of chronic lower abdominal pain, dysmenorrhea, and infertility. It focuses specifically on medication-based therapy, noting that because the underlying pathophysiology remains unclear, treatment is often more symptom-oriented than causal. The paper’s main limitation is the persistent lack of mechanistic understanding that constrains causal therapeutic approaches. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it addresses the principles of pharmacologic therapy for endometriosis in the context of its still-unclear pathophysiology.
