This short German-language article reviews existing literature on endometriosis around the peri- and postmenopausal periods, drawing on studies examining incidence patterns and recurrence after surgery, hormone replacement therapy after hysterectomy/oophorectomy, and systematic review evidence for menopause management in women with a history of endometriosis. It highlights that menopause-related hormonal changes intersect with endometriosis course, including data on age patterns and on recurrence risk when hormone therapy is used, while also noting that broader management questions have been addressed in reviews of both medical and surgical approaches and by perimenopausal risk discussions. A key limitation is that the piece itself does not present new empirical data and summarizes heterogeneous prior studies rather than conducting an original analysis. Relevance to endometriosis: it is centrally about endometriosis in the peri- and postmenopause, explicitly synthesizing evidence related to endometriosis across these life stages.
