Abstract
Endometriosis is a common disease, affecting approximately 5–10% of reproductively aged women. Symptoms, such as painful periods, negatively impact an individual’s quality of life; however, these symptoms are often normalized, leading to delays in diagnosis and treatment, and worsening of the disease. In this podcast, a reproductive endocrinologist (Dr Sanjay K Agarwal) and patient advocate (Tara Mangum) provide their perspectives on the diagnosis and management of endometriosis. They also discuss Relugolix combination therapy as a treatment option for patients with endometriosis.
期刊介绍:
Advances in Therapy is an international, peer reviewed, rapid-publication (peer review in 2 weeks, published 3–4 weeks from acceptance) journal dedicated to the publication of high-quality clinical (all phases), observational, real-world, and health outcomes research around the discovery, development, and use of therapeutics and interventions (including devices) across all therapeutic areas. Studies relating to diagnostics and diagnosis, pharmacoeconomics, public health, epidemiology, quality of life, and patient care, management, and education are also encouraged.
The journal is of interest to a broad audience of healthcare professionals and publishes original research, reviews, communications and letters. The journal is read by a global audience and receives submissions from all over the world. Advances in Therapy will consider all scientifically sound research be it positive, confirmatory or negative data. Submissions are welcomed whether they relate to an international and/or a country-specific audience, something that is crucially important when researchers are trying to target more specific patient populations. This inclusive approach allows the journal to assist in the dissemination of all scientifically and ethically sound research.
