Background summary
Endometrial hyperplasia without atypie is treated by oral progestron. This
treatment has some side-effects. Another way of treating this condiion is by an
IUD that contains progesteron. This method is already been investigated and is
also effective. We think that this second option (the IUD which contains
progesteron) is more effective and is also has less side-effects than the oral
treatment. That is why we want to do this ranomized controlled trial. For this
study we need to include 90 patients.
Study objective
Treatment of endometrial hyperplasia by an IUD that contains progesteron is
more effective and has less side-effects than the treatment with progesteron
oral.
