Comparing implant and pill for endometriosis
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial compares an implant that releases the hormone gestrinone with a daily pill called dienogest to see which works better for treating endometriosis symptoms. It might be a good option if you have mild to moderate endometriosis and are looking for a non-surgical treatment.
