Therapie der Endometriose
Gestrinone and danazol both effectively treated endometriosis with similar pregnancy rates but different side effects, while buserelin induced implant reduction with estrogenic suppression side effects.

This paper reports randomized trial evidence comparing hormonal therapies for endometriosis, including a study of 30 laparoscopically confirmed patients treated for 6 months with gestrinone versus danazol, and a multinational multicenter trial of 275 patients treated with the GnRH agonist buserelin intranasally. Across studies, treatment was effective in roughly 80–90% of cases, with similar pregnancy rates for gestrinone versus danazol, while buserelin induced disappearance or reduction of endometriotic implants in about 80%; the main side effects were attributed to estrogen suppression and differed between drug groups. A key limitation explicitly highlighted is the ongoing need to determine recurrence rates and long-term side effects, implying follow-up beyond the reported treatment periods is central. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it compares gestrinone, danazol, and buserelin hormonal regimens and reports response and side-effect profiles.
