To the question of complex treatment of endometriosis
This study investigated proliferation and apoptosis markers in endometriosis lesions and found that the drug Epigalin, when added to dienogest, controls endometrial cell proliferative potential.

The paper examined proliferation and apoptosis in endometriosis lesions using immunohistochemical markers, studying 35 patients with internal endometriosis (adenomyosis), 52 with external genital endometriosis, and 19 with extragenital endometriosis. It reported low apoptosis and high proliferative activity with an endometrium-type proliferative pattern, suggesting prevalence of endometrial hyperplasia. In a second phase, antiproliferative effects of the drug Epigalin were assessed in 38 patients with adenomyosis and marked pain syndrome, comparing dienogest alone versus dienogest plus Epigalin, and finding Epigalin use helped control proliferative potential of endometrium cells. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically evaluating antiproliferative treatment (Epigalin) and immunohistochemical proliferation/apoptosis features in endometriosis, including adenomyosis.
