Cannabidiol for the Treatment of Pelvic Pain in Endometriosis (DREAMLAND)
EndometriosisPelvic PainThe objective of this work is to conduct a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to assess the efficacy and safety of cannabis extract in women with endometriosis who have already undergone hormonal contraceptive treatment and surgery without satisfactory response.
The Effect of Selective Oxytocin Receptor Inhibitors on Endometriosis-related Pain
EndometriosisA pilot study to investigate the potential role of atosiban, a selective oxytocin receptor inhibitor, in the management of endometriosis-related pain. Ten patients will be administered atosiban intravenously during 6 hours on a day during their period when they experience (severe) pain
Evaluating Ovarian Reserve After Conventional Laparoscopy Versus Robotic Surgery for Bilateral Endometrioma...
Ovarian EndometriomaOvarian EndometriosisThe aim of this study is to perform a randomized study investigating AMH recovery comparing robot-assisted laparoscopy and conventional laparoscopy in patients with bilateral ovarian endometrioma. It is hypothesized that in patients with endometriomas, a robot-assisted approach may provide improved instrument navigation resulting in more precise dissection and therefore removal of less healthy ovarian tissue compared to conventional laparoscopy. AMH is the most widely used parameter for predicting functional ovarian reserve. Postoperative AMH levels were associated with the number of follicles in specimens due to the removal of ovarian cortex during surgery . Furthermore, the reduction in AMH level after surgery is higher in bilateral endometrioma. The investigators hypothesize, on the basis of Lee at al., 2020, that patients with bilateral endometrioma will have significantly higher AMH levels 6 months after robot-assisted laparoscopy than patients who were treated with conventional laparoscopy. Therefore, the primary outcome is postoperative serum AMH level recovery in patients undergoing conventional laparoscopy versus robot-assisted laparoscopy. Aims: The aim of this study is to investigate postoperative differences in ovarian reserve differing between robot-assisted laparoscopy compared to conventional laparoscopy in patients with bilaterial ovarian endometrioma by comparing serum AMH (sAMH) level recovery. Study population: The study population will consist of women aged between 18 and 45 years who are referred to our gynecologic outpatient clinic due to bilateral endometrioma. Women with an indication for surgery can be included in this trial. Methods: Laparoscopic-assisted resection of endometriosis will be performed using up to four 5-mm ports, including an umbilical port and additional ports as dictated by each individual surgery. The robotic-assisted resection of endometriosis will be performed using the da Vinci Surgical System Si (Intuitive Surgical) using up to five ports as needed. Superficial and deep endometriosis resection will be performed in the usual standard fashion. Histological confirmation of endometriosis will be performed. The primary outcome is postoperative serum AMH (sAMH) level recovery. This will be evaluated 6 months after surgery.
An AHEI Dietary Intervention to Reduce Pain in Women With Endometriosis
EndometriosisThe investigators are conducting this study to examine if a healthy diet based on the Alternative Healthy Eating Index (AHEI) influences pain symptoms, quality of life, and inflammatory markers measured in blood samples in women with endometriosis who are currently experiencing pain symptoms.
Transvaginal Low-level Laser Therapy to Improve Pelvic Pain and Sexual Function in Patients With...
EndometriosisDyspareunia1 moreDyspareunia is defined as pain with penetrative sexual intercourse. Women with endometriosis have a nine-fold increased risk of dyspareunia, when compared to the general female population. A prospective single-blinded randomized controlled trial will be performed evaluating the change in pelvic pain and sexual satisfaction scores from baseline to 6 weeks after treatment with transvaginal photobiomodulation therapy or sham therapy. Treatment will involve 9 planned treatment sessions over 3-4 weeks. 40 women will be included in the study.
The Effect of Endometrial Scratching on Patients With Endometriosis
EndometriosisIVFWe aimed to investigate whether endometrial scratching could improve IVF outcomes by enhancing endometrial receptivity in patients with endometriosis.

Robotic Versus Laparoscopic Surgery for Deep Endometriosis
EndometriosisDeep Endometriosis1 moreThe objective of this study is to examine whether robot-assisted laparoscopy is superior compared to conventional laparoscopy as regards to patient outcome.
Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation to Reduce Chronic Pelvic Pain in Endometriosis
EndometriosisIn the study it will be tested whether transcranial direct current stimulation can reduce the perception of pelvic pain in patients with endometriosis. Hypothesis: Transcranial direct current stimulation can reduce the perception of pelvic pain in patients with patients with endometriosis.
