Expert ReplyCondition analysis:
Traditionally patients with endometriosis have been advised against the use of hormone replacement therapy (HRT). There are many isolated reports associating HRT with the recurrence of endometriosis related pain and even gynaecological cancers. Recent studies have not supported these views and encourage its use in patients with known endometriosis. The theoretical disadvantages of HRT must be weighed against its advantages particularly in younger women who face a prolonged period in the menopausal state. When HRT is used it must be a combination of oestrogen and progesterone. There is no evidence that withholding HRT for a period of time after surgery protects against recurrent symptoms. Tibolone is a new HRT on the Australian market. It has a different mode of action than conventional HRT, which may be advantageous in patients with endometriosis.
