 Prescribe hormonal
treatment (hormonal contraceptives, progestagens, antiprogestagens or GnRH agonists) as one of the options, as it reduces endometriosis-associated pain
Take patient preferences, side effects, efficacy, costs and availability into consideration when choosing hormonal treatment for endometriosis- associated pain
Prescribe hormonal add-back therapy to coincide with the start of GnRH agonist therapy, to prevent bone loss and hypoestrogenic symptoms during treatment
Surgically treat endometriosis when identified at laparoscopy, i.e. ‘see and treat’, as this is effective for reducing endometriosis- associated pain
Refer women with suspected or diagnosed deep endometriosis to a centre
of expertise that offers all available treatments in a multidisciplinary context
