Abstract

Endometriosis is known to regress in pregnancy, under the influence of androgens, and after the menopause. Medical management aims to mimic these states, and the rationale behind the treatment strategies is to induce atrophy of the ectopic endometrium in order to relieve painful symptoms and restore fertility.
