Abstract
Endometriosis is a common disease among women of childbearing age, and it is the main cause of dysmenorrhea and infertility. This article analyzes the efficacy of mifepristone and gestrinone in the treatment of endometriosis. The results showed that the recurrence rate of mifepristone group and gestrinone group were 8.33% and 5%, respectively, which was significantly lower than 23.33% of the control group. Before and after treatment, LH, endocrine test results FSH PRL had no obvious change in mifepristone group and gestrinone group, while E2 decreased, as mifepristone group (141.7±31.2) pmol/L, gestrinone group (64.2±11.7) pmol/L. The incidence of adverse reactions and liver dysfunction in the mifepristone group were significantly lower than those the gestrinone group (P<0.05). Mifepristone and gestrinone can be used for endometriosis postoperative adjuvant treatment, is safe and effective, but using mifepristone has the lower rate of adverse reaction. In conclusion, mifepristone is a current research focus, its mechanism of action in the process of exploration, has broad prospects in the treatment of endometriosis, its long-term application security is paid more and more attention.
