|
This study is a prospective randomized, open label, parallel group, trial comparing the efficacy of Cabergoline 0.5mg tablet twice weekly and Leuprolide 3.75mg subcutaneous injections monthly for 4 months in 50 patients with endometriosis that will be conducted in Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, AIIMS. The primary outcome measures will be reduction in pain Visual Analog Score(VAS) by >50% and change in the pre and post treatment level of serum Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor(VEGF) after 4 months of treatment. The secondary outcomes will be reduction in size of endometrioma, changes in ovarian blood flow, change in pulse wave velocity of brachial artery and change in the serum levels of CA-125 and Prolactin after 4 months of treatment. Dosages: Cabergoline 0.5 mg twice weekly orally Leuprolide 3.75 mg monthly subcutaneously
Duration of treatment: 4 months |
