Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of the vaginal micronized progesterone and Levonorgestrel-releasing Intrauterine System for treatment of non-atypical endometrial hyperplasia in premenopausal women.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Vaginal use of micronized progesterone in the treatment of endometrial hyperplasia can result in better than oral administration, as it will remain away from the first pass effect, and depending on the local application. In this study, we aimed to compare this local treatment with Levonorgestrel-releasing Intrauterine System for treatment of non-atypical endometrial hyperplasia.
