Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of the study protocol will be to compare the efficacy of subcutaneous progesterone (25 mg / day; Pleyris, IBSA Institut Biochimique SA) with vaginal progesterone (90 mg / day; Crinone, Merck Serono) administered during the luteal phase in term of pelvic pain reduction in patients with grade I-II endometriosis and / or endometrioma \<4 cm subjected to time intercourses or COS/IUI cycles.

Detailed Description
